Senators Hopeful Evacuation Begun
Senators Javits and Jackson say evacuation of Americans from South Vietnam may already be underway and demand congressional authorization before any troop use. Ford seeks 722 million in military aid and 380 million in humanitarian aid, plus power to deploy troops to move over 5,000 Americans and vulnerable Vietnamese if the insurgency widens conflict. Muskie cautions that large troop involvement remains unlikely as hearings on aid and authority begin in the Senate.
