Interstate openings and talks in Saigon
The 38 mile I 90 link in southeastern Minnesota opens at 1 p.m. Tuesday, extending to St. Charles and completing a 121 mile stretch from the eastern border to Albert Lea. Ceremonies mark new I 35 segments from Albert Lea toward the Iowa border and the Iowa side, enabling uninterrupted freeway travel from Duluth to Clear Lake, with a Faribault exception. Separate Paris talks on Vietnam progress report a draft peace plan calling for a complete troop withdrawal within 60 days of signing, plus a cease fire and POW release, but Saigon’s demands stall final agreement as Nixon aims for a provisional settlement while delaying further South Vietnamese force reductions.
