Moratorium Counter-Offensive By Vice President Agnew

Backers of Nixon Vietnam policy led by Vice President Spiro Agnew launch a counter offensive against the moratorium protests. Agnew decries protesters as dissidents and anarchists while Moratorium organizers urge local action and a November push to press for an end to the war. Jerome Grossman and Barry Goldwater advocate demonstrations including Veterans Day. Westmoreland notes soldier disenchantment with withdrawal calls. Grossman says planners aim for local events and congressional engagement. If Nixon concedes to end the war in his Nov 3 speech, Moratorium leaders may fold and resume normal activities.
