While it is possible that there is a short somewhere, I think it is 
more likely that you have lost a transistor in the little warning 
light. I have seen that happen in the late (72-3) warning lights 
sometimes. Have you been doing any electrical work in the car lately? 
Make any sparks?

I might have another one, or I might be able to repair it with a 
modern transistor. This should not be hard, but I haven't done it 
before.

I think maybe I have seen the same problem with the late seat belt 
warning light.
