Abrams visits White House amid Vietnam peace talk doubt
Gen. Creighton W. Abrams Jr. met with President Johnson in a secret Washington visit to discuss the Vietnam war lull and potential impact of a bombing halt. White House officials called it a general military review, not a peace breakthrough, as U.S. and Saigon sources note North Vietnamese readiness for a winter offensive. Abrams received the Distinguished Service Medal at the White House luncheon with top officials.

In Bratislava a crowd of about 10 000 Slovaks clashed with police during a violent demonstration against the Soviet occupation in honor of Czechoslovakia's 50th anniversary. The protesters sang the national anthem lit candles at memorials for those killed last August, and carried a sign reading Liberté while shouting Rus sians go home.
