McCarthy Backs Kennedy View Shifts on Vietnam
Senator McCarthy said he would back Senator Kennedy if convinced he could not win on the first ballot and if faced with choosing between Kennedy and Johnson would support Kennedy. He attacked Johnson’s Vietnam policy while speaking at Howard University and urged a coalition government in Vietnam, a guaranteed income, and major social programs despite calling such proposals dreams amid the war. Also, William Jones, 16, of Dumas, escaped jail in Pine Bluff and was captured near Corning.
