U.S. Backing Peace Efforts Fails to Revive Thant Talks
Washington state department officials repeated support for a just solution to the Vietnam War while saying renewed UN efforts led by U Thant are no longer useful. They cited past statements by McCloskey and Rusk and noted Hanoi and Peking reject UN mediation. The talks stalled as U S bombing and Hanoi’s stance kept a conference out of reach.

National Church Leaders Report Shift in Social Justice Efforts
The Rev Dr Edwin Espy, general secretary of the National Council of Churches, says national church bodies push ahead of local congregations in applying the gospel to social change while coordinating broader race relations work. The council, meeting with about 3,000 clergy and lay delegates, reports growing collaboration among conservative evangelical groups and broader dialogue with Roman Catholics and Jewish groups. Bishop Reuben Mueller notes continued counterattacks but says member churches are countering with factual rebuttals to charges of communism and other criticisms.
