Can U. S. End War Senator Russell Sees Vietnam Speedup
Senator Richard B Russell of Georgia argues the United States has the military power to end the Vietnam War quickly and urges a prompt conclusion. He cites $15 billion already appropriated, a 250000 man force in Vietnam, and a projected buildup to 400000, noting political stakes for 1968 and risks from guerrillas and China as air strikes intensify. If a cease-fire comes in 1967, the war may end with fewer casualties and higher prestige for the president.
