Pentagon Study Presses On In Vietnam War Policy
The Post reports that in 1963 and 1964 the US sought to stay in Vietnam rather than withdraw, resisting de Gaulle’s calls for neutralization. It cites a Kennedy era push to deepen US involvement and a 1961 envoy directive to bolster Diem, while a planned policy allegedly framed Diem’s coup outcomes.

State Government Shakeup Near Final Passage Today
Raleigh AP reports the North Carolina Senate moved toward final approval of a 17 major department reorganization bill. Sen. Julian Allsbrook opposed provisions affecting Halifax and Bath historical societies and the Battleship Commission, arguing it shifts control to Raleigh and local effects were underconsidered. The plan, to be phased in from Oct 1, 1971 and fully by July 1, 1972, also makes the lieutenant governor role full time from Jan 1, 1973.
