He opposed funding through the United Nations, warned against amnesty, and dismissed any link between aid views and amnesty stance. He suggested charity through Red Cross as a potential alternative but within U.S. control.

The Viet Cong notified the United States that 30 American prisoners will be released Monday at Hanoi Gia Lam Airport. The statement comes after a series of eleventh hour meetings and conflicting Viet Cong notices about prisoner releases alongside North Vietnam's release of 106 Americans and two Thais.
