Peace Party to Sue for New Laws
The Peace and Freedom Party announced plans to file a state Supreme Court suit to invalidate laws barring many of its candidates from state office this fall. The suit seeks to overturn complex restrictions and would allow antiwar candidates to run in congressional and legislative races, potentially aiding similar far right candidates. Also mentioned are remarks from AIP California chair Robert J. Walters about not fielding a full slate. Congress member Pete McCloskey said he would back President Johnson if war against North Korea is declared over the Pueblo incident. Governor George Romney of Michigan began a second East Coast campaign swing in New Hampshire.
