GOP Governors May Issue War Policy Declaration
Republican governors may publish a war policy declaration in December during the GOP Governors Association meeting in Palm Beach Florida. Massachusetts Governor John A. Volpe says the move would express support for American fighting men in Vietnam while avoiding direct endorsement of the Johnson administration. The plan follows a split at the National Governors Conference where Republicans blocked action on a war support resolution.
