McCarthy Might Back Fourth Party If Nomination Fails
Sen. Eugene J. McCarthy said he would not run as an independent but could back a fourth party drive by another. He indicated a possible Paris trip to meet North Vietnamese negotiators may be dropped if it disrupts peace talks. He conditioned any independent support on leadership and distinct choices appealing to a broad share of voters. Humphrey said he would back McCarthy if he is the Democratic nominee and predicted Nixon will win the November ballot.

Attorneys argue racial bias in draft boards invalidates the order and requires reversal. He remains free on bond. Finance economists warn the new 10 percent income tax and spending cuts may slow growth and raise unemployment, though Fed action could offset the impact.
