Tower Favored Son Seen For Texas Pres Nomination
Texas Republican leaders backed Senator John Tower as a favorite son candidate to lead the state delegation to the Miami national convention. The executive committee unanimously approved a drive to elect Tower, who said he is not seeking the vice presidency. He praised Nixon as strongest for the GOP nomination while Reagan and Rockefeller also receive support. Houston official Albert Fay warned that Wallace could peel anti-Johnson votes in the South, noting a Republican could defeat Johnson and Wallace. The committee also chose new Republican national and district officers, replacing resignations and filling posts in Kenedy County, Austin, and Dallas.

Marine leaders discuss Vietnam force levels and future progress
Marine Commandant Gen Leonard F Chapman says with 75,000 Marines in Vietnam the force can conduct current operations at full strength but cannot increase numbers without reserves or longer tours. Cushman notes 202,000 total Marine strength, 93,000 in the Pacific, and a 13 month Vietnam tour amid rotating deployments. He cites North Vietnam proximity as a disadvantage and expects greater division of labor in 1968 as South Vietnamese and South Korean forces take on more in 1st Corps sectors.
