Panthers in court as security tightens around Reagan
Five Panthers remained in juvenile court custody with two bailed out Tuesday night and the rest to be freed later Wednesday. Governor Reagan’s security is described as the stiffest in California history with an armed Capitol officer near his outer office. Assemblyman Mulford proposes a bill to make carrying a loaded weapon in public places a felony, after Panthers argued they have constitutional rights to carry arms in the Capitol.

Senators Clash Over Vietnam War Policy And Peace Proposals
Sen Mundt backs Dirksen on constructive alternatives and rejects a party line split over war conduct. He aligns with Rusk that Vietnam is not a civil war and notes the United States said yes to 28 peace proposals while Hanoi rejected them. Fulbright challenges the claim and defends minority critique as offering alternatives rather than mirroring administration stance.

Rusk outlines troop pullback from Europe not for Vietnam
Secretary of State Dean Rusk told a Senate panel that about 35 000 U S troops slated for withdrawal from Western Europe are not destined for duty in Vietnam. He said they will be assigned to home front posts, remain under NATO, and could be quickly returned to Europe if needed. He noted the Joint Chiefs preferred to keep troops in Europe, with five and a half divisions remaining overseas after the reduction. President Johnson avoided linking Europe moves to Southeast Asia policy and emphasized NATO considerations. The Senate panel, led by Senator Mansfield, is weighing resolutions urging substantial Europe troop reductions.
