to law over his veto its historic
bill to curb presidents’ war pow

The 60-day limit on presidents’
power to commit U. S. combat
troops abroad without Congress’
approval became law immediately
when the Senate overrode the
veto.
The Senate vote was 75 to 18,
or 13 more than required.
The House overrode the veto
hours earlier 284 to 135, four more
than two-thirds needed.

“QUALITY FIRST”
tion of President Nixon’s support
ers and antiwar congressmen who
contended it would grant presi
dents new power to wage war up
to 60 days without congressional
approval.
Sen. Thomas F. Eagleton, D-
Mo., called the bill “blank-check
authority to carry us into war”
and said Nixon could use it im
mediately if he wanted to send
U.S. combat troops into the Mid
dle East.
But Senate Armed Services
Chairman John C. Stennis, D-
Miss., and Sen. Hubert H. Hum
phrey, D-Minn., said the bill was
never intended to restrict presei-
dents’ war powers but instead re
quire that Congress share the
burden of committing Americans
to war.
Sen. John Tower, R-Tex., urged
that the Senate get “not so caught
up in the hysteria of Watergate”
as to enact the war powers bill
“to kick the President while he is
down.”
Congress’ override of the Pres
ident’s veto was its first in nine
tries this year and the fifth since
Nixon became President.
After the House vote, Presi
dent Nixon issued a statement
saying it “seriously undermines
this nation’s ability to act deci
sively and convincingly in times
of international crisis.”
The confidence of American
allies could be diminished, he said,
and “our potential adversaries
may be encouraged to engage in
future acts of international mis
chief ...”
Inspired by the Vietnam war,
the bill was intended to prevent
the United States from becoming
involved in such a conflict with
out Congress’ specific approval.
Many congressmen switched from
their traditional positions.
Nixon vetoed the ball two weeks
ago, calling its curbs on presiden
tial war powers “both unconstitu
tional and dangerous.”
He particularly criticized two
sections:
The first requires a president
to withdraw any U. S. combat
forces he commits abroad on his
own after 60 days unless Congress
votes approval of the commitment
by then.
The president, however, could
extend that period another 30
days if he told Congress in writ
ing the time was needed to safely
withdraw the forces he had com
mitted.
The second provides that Con
gress can halt the war commit
ment any time during the 60 or I
90 days with a simple House-Sen
ate concurrent resolution not sub
ject to a president’s veto.

night carnage in the new ranch-
style home. All the victims were
shot in the head.
Authorities theorized the vic
tims had been ambushed by men
who later ransacked the grocery
store of one of the victims, Wal
ter Parkin, 33. Parkin was owner
of the rambling $60,000 home, 30
miles south of Sacramento.
Two children were shot to death
on a bed. Parkin and six other
victims, gagged and bound, were
stuffed into a 6-by-8-foot walk-in
closet in the master bedroom, po
lice said.
The other victims were tenta
tively identified as Parkin’s wife,
Joanne, 31; their daughter, Lisa,
11; their son, Bob, 9; Richard A.
Earl, an accountant and neighbor
from Victor; his wife, Wanda, in
her 30s; their son Ricky, 15; their
daughter, Debbie, 18; and Mark
Lang, 20, identified as Debbie
Earl’s boyfriend.
The Earls and the Parkins ap
parently went out together for
the evening, leaving Debbie be
hind to baby sit for their children,
police said.
The grisly discovery was made
Wednesday morning by Carol
Jenkins, 18, a roomer at the Park
in home who was out on a date
Tuesday night.
Deputies said Parkin’s store,
the United Market, had been un
locked and ransacked and an un
determined amount of cash taken
from the safe.
