Rusk Urges Vietnamese Unity in War on Communists
Secretary of State Dean Rusk urged a quarreling South Vietnamese to unite to defeat the Reds and build a democratic society. He said U S influence should press all sides to set aside lesser issues and proceed with the country’s great tasks. The appeal followed Buddhist leader Thich Tri Quang’s call for U S intercession and came amid Saigon dissension over Ky’s military moves in Da Nang. The move, seen as anti Communists by both sides, prompted caution from U S officials who fear civil war and want to maintain the constitutional process. Ambassador Lodge, returning from Saigon, said there would be no major policy changes, while the Fulbright bombing proposal drew no immediate response.
