Nixon Plans Disengagement in Vietnam Voices From White House
Drew Pearson reports President Nixon has spent hours in the Lincoln Sitting Room shaping a plan to end U.S. involvement in Vietnam with peace as the aim. Intimates say he prioritizes halting the war, crime, and rising taxes, with unilateral withdrawal possible if South Vietnamese forces can take over. Kissinger opposes early withdrawals, while aides discuss a staged pullback and a Paris plan. A potential May offensive by North Vietnam is viewed as a risk to any withdrawal timetable. A separate note covers a new ethics code for Congress, highlighting Rep. Philip Ruppe's expanded asset disclosure of 97 companies and stock in oil and airline firms.
