Morgan Opposes Draft Amnesty in Campaign Plank
Democratic Senate candidate Robert Morgan voiced opposition to any legislative push for amnesty for Vietnam era draft resisters and deserters. He said amnesty is for courts and the executive, not lawmakers, and urged individual case handling. Morgan noted younger resisters might deserve leniency while older, more informed resisters could face longer alternative service if offered. He declined opinion on reconciliation with resisters or on Nixon prosecution, stressing judicial and executive action. Herman Talmadge spoke at the banquet as 375 tickets had been sold.
