Johnson Nixed Early North Vietnam Attack Plans
Secret Pentagon papers reveal President Johnson in 1964 rejected urgent military action against North Vietnam as premature, seeking instead to build a stronger South Vietnam base. By late 1965 and 1966 the U.S. escalated air campaigns and warned Hanoi, while intra-South Vietnamese unrest prompted U.S. diplomatically guided interventions.

Congress Hopes To Avoid Another Clash With Press
Washington AP reports congressional peacemakers seek a better path to resolve a subpoena dispute over The Selling of the Pentagon. The House Commerce Committee recommends contempt for CBS and Frank Stanton over raw material, factional 25 to 13 vote, while aiming to avert floor battle and potential court clash with press freedom questions. If approved, prosecution could yield up to one year in prison and a $1,000 fine.

Action urged to remedy state salary discrimination
The Kansas Association of Public Employes urged the State Finance Council to immediately fix salary disparities in the Welfare Department and among Civil Service workers at state colleges and universities. The executive board said other state agencies have raises now, while welfare and higher education staff do not, risking discrimination and later retirement income losses tied to current earnings.
