Conservatives field own ticket in Virginia race
The Conservative Council of Virginia launched a ticket with Vaughn J. Story Jr., Rein Purney, and Joan W. Carter for governor, lieutenant governor, and attorney general. They argue liberals dominate the Democratic Party, but Goowin and Horton deny leftward shifts while Republicans struggle to regain black votes and liberal support. Washington's Johnson administration pressures Virginia into LBJ politics.

Does Religion Really Matter in Modern Society
A sermon recalls Gibbon's division of belief into equally true, false, or useful. It questions whether twentieth century America mirrors Rome in tolerating many creeds, notes secular trends, and warns against using religion as a mere tool for causes rather than a life guiding end. The preacher calls believers to align all life with faith's primacy.

A Washington view holds President Johnson has again demoted Secretary of State Dean Rusk by placing him under Under Secretary Thomas C. Mann in all policy communications and actions. Mann, favored on Latin American affairs, now controls Rusk’s access to the White House, a shift seen as boosting hard line anti Communist policy.
