Opponents launch truth blitz on Panama Canal treaty
A conservative coalition started a nationwide truth squad blitz to counter what they call Carter administration propaganda for the Panama Canal treaty. Rep. Philip Crane said the effort offers counterpoise to misinformation from Secretary of State Cyrus Vance and other officials as AFL-CIO spokesmen defend the labor union stance and workers rights amid the Canal Zone dispute. The tour, led by Sen. Paul Laxalt, was delayed to attend Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey's funeral.
