fulltime political activity to be with his wife and their 10-year-old daughter Marty "When you came to Washingtont: youmade a most substantial sacrifice pkspnal and financial" the President wrote "Howevl: er in my 26 years of political life -I have- often noted that the greater sacrifice is usually the wife's since she must not only share the an- cordial let- 4 friend be- the Presi- iod and

the nation's WO-billion debt ceiling through Oct 31 of this year This linkage sponsored by Democrats in Congress but voted for by most Republicans made it impossible for Nixon to veto the Social

serious objections Nixon said in a Whit House statement shortly before departing for a two-week stay in California is that this set the stage for what could be "a frantic election-eve scramble to attach a whole collection of seemingly attractive politically popular but fiscally irresponsible riders" to the next debt ceiling bill He said he is placing Congress on notice now that if this occurs and offsetting cuts in other programs cannot be made "then I will not hesitate to exercise my right and responsibility to veto" Congress rushed through the measure Friday just before recessing until July 17 and made it possible for the Social Security payments to be reflected in checks received Oct 3 a month before the election a at Opening Game Set Today Gov Wallace Prepares to Be Courted By The

higher taxi fare rate than Dade's fare structure of 50 cents for the first one-sixth mile and a dime for every one-sixth mile after that That figures to $1 for the first mile and 60 cents for each additional mile When applied to the county's vast distances it is not difficult to understand why taxicabs account for less than one per cent of the individual trips made each day by Dade residents
