Ford Presidential Library.\nFOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE\nMARCH 7, 1972\nOFFICE OF THE WHITE HOUSE PRESS SECRETARY\nTHE WHITE HOUSE\nPRESS CONFERENCE\nOF\nSENATOR HUGH SCOTT\nAND\nCONGRESSMAN GERALD R. FORD\nTHE BRIEFING ROOM\n10:05 A.M. EST\nMR. ZIEGLER: The Leadership meeting lasted for\ntwo hours this morning. Congressman Ford will begin the\nreport today, and Senator Scott will also report to you on\nthat meeting.\nI should say that after the press conference with\nthe Senator and Congressman Ford, Secretary Butz will be\nhere at 11:00 o'clock to brief on the child nutrition pro-\ngram. He will meet with the President at 10:45, and we will\nhave a picture of that session with the President.\nCongressman Ford.\nCONGRESSMAN FORD: Thank you, Ron.\nTwo major issues were discussed this morning:\nFirst, the revenue sharing bill which is in the Committee\non Ways and Means; and secondly, the status of the welfare\nreform legislation in the Senate Finance Committee.\nWe brought the President up to date on the situa-\ntion in the Committee on Ways and Means. Congressman\nByrnes, the ranking Republican, was present. It was clearly\npointed out that there is a substantial majority on the\nRepublican side in the Committee on Ways and Means who are\nfor a revenue sharing bill. We have 10 members; the Demo-\ncrats have 15.\nA majority of the Republicans have introduced the\nPresident's proposal. I think more than a simple majority\non the Republican side is available to report out legisla-\ntion, so the hang-up, if there is one in the committee, is to\nget a majority of the Democrats to support some legislation.\nI believe that 10 members, including Chairman Mills,\nhave introduced Chairman Mills' proposal. So if we get the\nkind of initiative in the Committee on Ways and Means that we\nexpect, there is no question in my mind that the legislation\ncan be approved by the committee.\nOnce the bill is out of the committee and on the\nFloor of the House, I am sure there would be a substantial\nmajority for the legislation in the House of Representatives.\nBut right at the moment, there is no doubt we have a majority\nof the Republicans on the committee who are ready to report\nout a bill, and I hope that a majority of the Democrats\nwill do the same.\nMORE\n- 2 -\nSENATOR SCOTT: The first precinct is in from\nDixville Notch, New Hampshire, and the President has skimmed\nthrough by a vote of 11 to nothing.\nThere was much talk today about the pension bill,\nthe portability of pensions, whereby the pension system\ncan be extended and broadened to both self-employed and\notherwise employed, and that one could carry his pension from\none job to another. The President expressed strong interest\nin having action in this Congress in both Houses on the\npension bill as soon as possible.\nThere were hopeful indications, with Senator Ben-\nnett being present, and Secretary Richardson, that we should\nget a bill from the Finance Committee in reporting H.R. 1,\nthe welfare reform bill, probably during the month of April,\nand there was general discussion of other legislation pending,\nbut most of the talk was on revenue sharing, welfare reform,\nand the pension bill.\nQ\nCongressman Ford, is the revenue sharing bill\nthat you expect to get to the Floor and passed an Administra-\ntion bill or Chairman Mills' bill?\nCONGRESSMAN FORD: It appears from the report\ngiven by Byrnes and Conable that something in between the\nAdministration bill and the Mills bill will emerge from the\ncommittee. The differences are not too significant. The\ndifferences can be compromised. With that kind of compro-\nmise, I am sure it will be overwhelmingly approved by the\nHouse.\nSENATOR SCOTT: The Senate Finance Committee is\nprimarily considering at this time the social security aspects\nof H.R. 1. It is thought that they will soon turn to the\nother section having to do with welfare, catastrophic illness\nand other sections.\nQ\nWas there any discussion this morning of a\nnews report from Tokyo quoting a North Korean spokesman\nthere suggesting it is time for normalization of relations\nwith the United States by North Korea?\nSENATOR SCOTT: No discussion of foreign policy\nthis morning at all.\nQ\nAny discussion of the ITT merger case?\nSENATOR SCOTT: No discussion at all. It is well in\nhand by those members of the Judiciary Committee, who know\nwhat they are doing.\nQ\nWhat are they doing? (Laughter)\nSENATOR SCOTT: You will discover that basically\nthey are stalling, but you will find action later.\nQ\nDid you discuss the school busing situation?\nCONGRESSMAN FORD: In the follow-up reports by\nSenator Scott and myself on the legislation situation in\nthe House and Senate, I brought up the fact that the emergency\nMORE\n- 3 -\nschool aid bill and the higher education bill would be\nsent to conference on Wednesday, and that the Republicans\nwere going to move to instruct the House conferees to insist\nthat our conferees stand up for the Broomfield amendment,\nwhich was approved when the House considered and approved\nthe legislation.\nFrom that we had a broader discussion. The\nPresident reiterated his interest in getting action to\nchange the current situation as far as school busing is\nconcerned. He pointed out that he met yesterday with a\nnumber of the high-ranking black leaders in the Administra-\ntion. It was pointed out that George Shultz and, I believe,\nEd Morgan have consulted with a number of legislators in\nboth House and Senate on what ought to be done.\nThe President will make his report after further\nconsultation, and his recommendations; but he re-emphasized\nthat he was not satisfied with the status quo, and would\npropose some action in this area, but did not define what he\nhad in mind.\nQ\nSenator Scott, if I may pursue the matter of\nITT a little more seriously, could you give us your evalua-\ntion as to whether it is due to stalling or whether it\nis due to the fact that the committee has actually found\nsomething, but your evaluation of the chances for Mr. Klein-\ndienst now being confirmed by the Senate?\nSENATOR SCOTT: I will begin with one rather pointed\nillustration. I took a special note yesterday that in over\ntwo hours, the name of Kleindienst was not once mentioned\nby Senators or witnesses. In the hareing off after any\nremote possibility they can, certain Democratic Senators,\nSenator Kennedy in particular, asked a number of questions\nof the doctor which brought out information which could only\nbe favorable to the Administration's point of view; namely,\nthat Mrs. Beard rejects much of the content of the memorandum,\nand that she rejected it in the presence of witnesses and\nrejected it on numerous occasions, and that the Attorney\nGeneral had rebuffed Mrs. Beard in very strong terms and\nindicated the impropriety of her even attempting to approach\nhim.\nAll this was brought out through the skill of\nSenator Kennedy's cross-examination.\nYes, I think Mr. Kleindienst will be confirmed, if\nwe can give Senator Kennedy more time during the hearings to\nask more questions.\nTHE PRESS: Thank you very much.\nEND\n(AT 10:15 A.M.
