Fulbright Maintains Prestige Loss View On Dominican Intervention
Senator J William Fulbright says the United States suffered a significant loss of prestige from the 1965 Dominican Republic intervention. He notes the orderly election and Inter American Peace Force did not change his view that President Johnson rushed troops into Santo Domingo. Balaguer’s victory is cited with the peace force withdrawing before the inauguration.

Hoffa faces no opposition as he campaigns among about 2,200 delegates at the Teamsters convention in Miami Beach. Vice President Harold Gibbons’ withdrawal leaves Hoffa’s choice Frank Fitzsimmons unopposed for general vice president, while Hoffa seeks a constitutional revision to allow automatic return if jailed but later freed. The Supreme Court will rule next fall on Hoffa’s appeal of an eight year jury tampering sentence.
