Agnew Renews Attack on Demonstrators Amid Nixon Backing
Vice President Spiro Agnew, backed by President Nixon for a job well done, launched another combative broadside against antiwar demonstrators and political critics. He labeled leaders of the Oct. 15 Moratorium as impudent snobs and warned of a convulsive, potentially totalitarian society, urging action beyond street protests. He defended his stance at a Harrisburg speech and later received praise from Nixon at the White House.
