Senate Hawks and Doves Split on U S Vietnam Role
In Washington many senators remain divided on future U S involvement in Vietnam as President Ford's recommendations await. Some back limits on aid to South Vietnam while others favor more arms or even resumed bombing and naval action. Key voices include Goldwater urging withdrawal and moral critique, Church arguing a mistake has been made, Thurmond and Buckley open to air and naval power, and Stennis opposing troop return.
