Byrnes backs air strikes but opposes aid to Southeast Asia
Former Secretary of State James F. Byrnes, marking his 86th birthday, endorses Johnson's air strikes against North Vietnam while opposing a proposed $1 billion aid package for Southeast Asia. In a wide interview, Byrnes warns the Soviets seek world domination and urges continued talks with them, while criticizing the Supreme Court and the voting rights bill. He recalls wartime diplomacy with Stalin and Bevin Molotov, and asserts U.S. military power must stay ahead of Soviet leverage.
