Wallace waives equal time for Nixon Humphrey debate
George C. Wallace relinquished equal time rights to gain 30 minutes rebuttal time after a Nixon Humphrey debate but a Nixon spokesman said the move changes nothing. Across the Middle East Israeli and Syrian forces exchanged fire near a cease fire line and Tel Aviv’s Lydda Airport was temporarily closed by a fire described as accidental. Senator Kennedy warned a large Wallace vote could create a permanent party of division and hate in the United States. A Cross Wabash canal proposal in Indiana drew testimony from women conservationists politicians railroad men and government officials. At UC Berkeley 250 officers cleared 75 demonstrators after a near 12 hour sit in.
