Nixon to hand Congress top secret Pentagon Vietnam study
President Nixon announced that a 47 volume Pentagon study on U.S. involvement in Vietnam will be provided to Congress as a top secret document. The White House said the action follows unauthorized publication of parts of the report and aims to prevent distorted judgments from incomplete data. Ziegler noted the material will remain classified and subject to congressional handling rules while a Pentagon declassification review proceeds.

Senate backs nine month Indochina pullout nonbinding
The Senate approved a nonbinding Mansfield measure by 57 to 42 urging the President to begin ceasefire talks and mutual troop withdrawals with prisoner releases over nine months from enactment. House leaders signaled the plan would die in conference and White House dismissed it as the view of 57 senators, not Congress as a whole. Illinois Senators Percy and Stevenson supported the amendment. Paris peace talks offered no immediate reaction.
