Blount Links Demonstrations to Prolonged War
Postmaster General Winton Blount, back from Vietnam, says antiwar protests prolong the war and kill American soldiers. After meeting with President Nixon, he says demonstrators are misguided but have a right to express opinions. He warns the enemy believes protestors want to see Nixon fail. Blount notes troops doubt the protests and cites reports that South Vietnam could not be forced to pull out prematurely. He also criticizes press coverage and cites Pope Paul VI on peace with honor. He discusses mail delivery to troops and the impact of postal service profits.
