Nixon halts bombing as White House policy review looms
President Nixon ordered a suspension of B52 strikes in South Vietnam ahead of a White House policy review. The move drew praise from North Vietnam and the Viet Cong, while Western diplomats said it could impact anti war arguments and mood abroad. The halt marks the anniversary of talks that led to the November 1 1968 stoppage. In Mississippi Delta, phosgene gas from derailed tank cars prompted mass evacuations as winds eased. About 30 000 were displaced at peak, with roughly 5 000 still unable to return.
