Senators Seek Saigon Reforms or U.S. Pullout
Two U.S. senators Hughes and Eagleton urged the Senate to declare that Saigon must enact reforms including an independent press and provisional government or the United States should terminate military, political, and economic aid. In Saigon, heavy monsoon rains hampered operations as the war continued with over 1,000 tons of bombs dropped on targets along the Cambodian border and clashes near the border and central highlands. General Wheeler said no major shift in U.S. battlefield tactics and declined to speculate on further troop withdrawals.
