cumbent President has ever consented to testify at a
congressional hearing. They said reports that Abraham
Lincoln had done so have'not been substantiated.
Rep. William L. Hungate, D-Mo., chairman of the House
Judiciary subcommittee on criminal justice, said Ford had
agreed toappear before the4ommittee at 10 a.m. EDT Oct. to
to 'answer questions concerning his full pardon of the former
president, including whether a "deal" was involved.
He said the questioning of Ford would be limited to the
"parameters" of 14 questions listed in two resolutions of
inquiry introduced earlier by Reps. Bella Abzug, D-N.Y., and
John Conyers: D-Mich.
Those questions generally ask what Ford may have kno‘yn
about 'Nixon's mental or physical condition.' and possible
charges pending against him, whether the Sept'. 8 pardon was
part of a deal arranged with Nixon before he resigned and
with whom Ford discussed the matter before making his
decision.

Ford may talk economics
WASHINGTON (UPI) President. Ford is considering an
address before a joint session of Congress next Tuesday to
unveil his new inflation-fighting economic program. White

They said they expected the speech, if given, would be

Congress •'a program of action which will bring balance and
vitality to our economy."
His top economic advisers have been meeting daily since
Saturday afternoon to develop an action program.
Ford has presided at sessions of the economic policy board
for the past two days.
The panel was formed by Ford and is headed by Treasury
Secretary William E. Simon to oversee, coordinate and im
plement all the administration's economic policies, national
and international. .
Ford was studying
_scores of proposals, including .
taxes
whi t h would lift some of the financial burden from the poor
who are suffering most from inflation. Another tax under
consideration is a surtax on income for the high-salaried.
The President has definitely ruled out wage and price
controls and no surprises were expected along that line.
