Business Executives to End War Joined by Retired Military Brass
Five retired generals and an admiral joined dissenting business executives urging President Johnson to halt bombing in North Vietnam and de escalate in the south. The Military Sponsors Committee backs early end to the war and negotiations with all parties, citing Hanoi may talk if bombing stops. Two other military leaders opposed the move, defending the war as necessary to halt communism and opposing protests against U.S. involvement.

Pike claims guilt in antidraft conspiracy in Cleveland
Pike tied himself to Dr. Benjamin Spock and Rev. William Sloan Coffin Jr as co conspirators if convicted of conspiracy against the draft. Speaking at Cleveland State University he urged more antiwar activists to oppose the Vietnam war and said he co signed an antidraft petition used by a Boston grand jury as basis for charges against Spock Coffin and others. He called forcing men to kill in Vietnam a violation of the Nuremberg treaty and urged conscience based counsel.
