Muskie pushes Nixon for new ceasefire plan
Senator Muskie urged President Nixon to propose a cease-fire as a path to end the Vietnam War. He supported Clifford’s 100000 troop withdrawal idea but stressed the president must take a bold initiative, arguing a cease-fire could pressure Communists to move Paris talks forward. He noted troop withdrawals to date have little impact on Hanoi, while cautioning about risks and defining a goal to preserve credibility of peace efforts.

Rabbi Ralph Simon of Chicago, president of the Conservative Rabbinical Assembly, told 500 Reform rabbis at the CCAR meeting in Houston that colleges pose the greatest threat to American Judaism. He cited a shift as youth question Jewish identity, noting about 1 million of 5.6 million Jews are Reform, 1.2 million Conservative, and the new generation asks why be Jews.
