Humphrey questions Nixon war plan and pace

Former Vice President Hubert Humphrey voiced strong concern over Nixon Administration war outlook and pressed for the unfolding of Nixon’s promised Vietnam strategy. He urged patience while urging a clear schedule for presenting a peace plan amid continued fighting. He defended Johnson’s peace steps and declined to offer his own Vietnam strategy. In Chicago, 18 year old Walter Montgomery was convicted of murdering 83 year old Marie Smrz and sentenced to 100 to 200 years. Oakland, Stuart Phillips resigns as superintendent to head Bangkok International School.

Humphrey Defends Campaign Positions Backed by Admin

Humphrey argued that several stances from his 1969 campaign, opposed by Nixon, have now gained administration support. He cited the 10 percent tax extension, prompt ratification of the nuclear nonproliferation treaty, and continued advocacy for school desegregation. He said his criticisms were valid and some proposals are now accepted.
