The first debate, which will be Sept. 23, will last 90 minutes and deal with economic and domestic policies.

It was also agreed that Carter's running mate, Sen. Walter F. Mondale, D-Minn., and Ford's vice presidential choice, Sen. Bob Dole, R-Kan., would meet in a single debate, for which a date wasn't announced.

The issue goes to the Senate, which is expected to act on the appropriation after the talor Day祭行政复核. If the Senate disagrees with the House action, the Senate will vote on it.

Prison computer is linked with federal data network
WICHTA (AP)—A computer terminal in the federal penitentiary at Leavenworth is connected to a transcontinental computer network carrying government information, the_Wichita Eagle reported in today's editions.
Federal authorities suspect convicts in the prison's computer training school may be defrauding the government, possibly by breaking tax auditing codes or by manipulating federal programs, the Eagle reported.
The newspaper said the computer link had been confirmed despite the prison warden's claim that "we're not hooked up to anything."
"Ilewendown has been part of our system for at least nine months," Jim Furlong, spokesman for the Los Angeles Computer Sciences Corp., told the Eagle.
The company's "infow" system spans two contents by satellite and is the main "time sharing" computer network used by many government agencies, including the Internal Revenue Service and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Furlong said.
"The terminal is separate from our computer," Benson told the Eagle. "The computer we use for all our training is not hooked to anything."
However, the manager of the prison training school, Beeler Gauss, told the ERC that the computer is linked directly to the Department of Agriculture computer system.
The Eagle reported Sunday in a copyrighted story that prison inmates may have used the computer to develop inmate abuse claims. The claims with little chance of being audited,

WASHINGTON (AP) - Rep. Wayne Hays, the once powerful House chairman who was topped by a Capitol Hill scandal, fled from Congress, effective yesterday.
The House Ethics Committee quickly ended the payroll-ex-test of Hays, an Ohio Democrat, by a vote of 12-0 on Tuesday. Hays was no longer a congressman.
Chairman John Flynt, D-Ga., denied that any deal had been made to drop the committee's investigation in return for Hays' resignation.
The inquiry centered on the charge by Elizabeth Ray that Hays kept her on his House Administration Committee payroll to be only his mistress.
"I think he did it to save his family," House Speaker Carl Albert said.
The resignation was read by a House
club of members. There was no visible
reaction.
The charges forced Hays to resign as head of the Democratic Campaign Committee, quit as committee chairman and join the Tea Party. He wouldn't seek reelection to Congress.
Hays resigns House; ethics inquiry halted
Hays himself asked for the Ethics Committee inquiry, saying it would exonerate him by establishing that Miss committee work for her $14,000-a-year pay.
'Chip' Carter to speak here next Tuesday
STEREO SYSTEMS FROM 300.00 TO 11,000.00!
One of Jimmy Carter's sons, James E. "Chip" Carter, is scheduled to be at the University of Kansas from 2 to 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, Dan Watkins, Douglas County coordinator of the Carter campaign, said last night.
Carter first will visit the voter registration booth in front of Wescoe Hall, then will speak in the Forum Room of the Kansas Union about 2:15. Watkins said.
Accompanying him will be the crews of the SIP deployment.
the CIS television program "60 Minutes"
Scott Siebel, campus coordinator for
Carter, said the program was preparing a
feast of children of Carter and
President Ford.
Chip Carter's visit to Lawrence is one of several Kansas appearances scheduled for Monday and Tuesday. He will be in Great Bend and Wichita Monday, and Wichita, Kansas City, Topeka and Lawrence Tuesday.
But Hays said when he dropped his re-election campaign three weeks ago that one reason was, "I don't want to give that money to chance to make another appearance."
He will continue campaigning for his
nation in Nebraska after leaving Lawrence.
Before Hays would resign, his aides pressed for prior assurance that the resignation would halt the Ethic Commission-exch inquiry against him, sources said.
The Ethics Committee had voted Monday to begin hearings for its inquiry Sept. 16 despite a plea that Hays was too mentally depressed to defend himself.
