First Lady Lyndon Johnson Heckled by Goldwater Backers in Columbia
Mrs. Lyndon B. Johnson faced severe heckling from Goldwater supporters in Columbia as she urged nuclear weapons to be the President's responsibility. The crowd of about 10,000 split between Johnson loyalists and hecklers near the train station. Gov. Donald S. Russell urged civility as Lynda Johnson spoke and the First Lady, smiling, promoted her husband’s peace record during 114 stops and 14 speeches in the Carolinas. Rep. Hale Boggs energized crowds with anti-Goldwater lines while noting a strong South may be ready for Lyndon Johnson.
