Sen. Dewey Bartlett is pushing for a bill to increase the federal estate tax exemption from $60,000 to $125,000 to help individuals offset inflation and avoid selling family enterprises to pay estate taxes. Hearings are scheduled to gather information on Indian housing needs, with a focus on transferring agricultural lands from father to son. The presence of a Russian missile base in Berbera, Somalia, is causing concern, and a July 4 patriotic event is planned by the Tulsa County Republican Committee. Gov. David Boren's comments about his political future, including a possible run against Bartlett in 1978, have sparked speculation.
