Two of President Johnson's trusted aides Gen Maxwell Taylor and Clark Clifford depart for six allied nations in the Far East to assess willingness to commit more troops. The White House aims to use the trip to build groundwork for an Asian summit while signaling potential troop increases to Westmoreland. Initial talks and a tentative figure around 70,000 extra troops are discussed, though no firm number is released.
