Mathias seeks repeal of Gulf of Tonkin resolution
Sen Charles Mathias proposes Congress repeal the Gulf of Tonkin resolution to spurn cold war dogmas, press Saigon toward reform, and back Nixon’s plan for accelerated withdrawal from South Vietnam. He calls the Tonkin measure the most questionable and says its continued existence risks broader U.S. military actions while arguing for a united political solution in Vietnam.

Nixon urged to appoint independent panel over My Lai killings
Two leading Democrats Sen Jahn C Stennis and Hubert Humphrey urged President Nixon to name an outside inquiry panel to probe the My Lai killings. They want a panel like the Warren Commission to survey the March 1968 case, establish facts, and report findings to the President. A separate call came as Lt. Calley faces court martial for 103 deaths and officials study ways to prosecute those at My Lai.

Wilson warns on My Lai probe affects Britain policy
Prime Minister Harold Wilson told Parliament that if the My Lai massacre allegations prove true Britain would dissociate from the actions and condemn them while still supporting basic U.S. policy in Vietnam. He urged caution, saying there is nothing to justify changing government policy, and opened a two day foreign affairs debate in the House of Commons.
