Two Party System Draws Fire
Senator Eugene J. McCarthy of Minnesota criticizes the two party system as not working in the United States. He declines to reveal possible splinter plans though he endorses Hubert Humphrey for president. He notes the 1960 effort barely worked and 30 to 50 percent feel voters lack a real choice. He contemplates options after announcing he will not seek reelection in 1970 or the presidency in 1972. The bombing halt could aid Senate candidates but may not influence the presidential race.
