Nuclear sub contamination dispute with Japan and railroading of protests
Tokyo asked the United States to keep its nuclear submarines away until investigators clear suspicions that the submarine Swordfish caused radioactivity counts 10 to 20 times normal in waters near Sasebo, site of a U S naval base. In Columbus the State Board of Education urged intensified action to end de facto segregation, delaying a Cleveland merger issue until June. In Washington the Poor People’s Campaign set up a temporary camp near the Lincoln Memorial with 88 prefab tents, while the Senate approved George W. Ball as U N ambassador. In Chicago ten Roosevelt University students were arrested in a protest, pledging further demonstrations and a hunger strike. AFL-CIO warned it could suspend Walter Reuther’s UAW if back dues aren’t paid, a move unlikely amid UAW’s stance to halt dues.
