Czechs Open Meeting of Party Leaders
The liberal leaders in Czechoslovakia, including Dubcek who was detained by Russians and later released, met in secrecy as they argued over reform and response to the Soviet occupation. Press freedom was crushed as radio and newspaper controls spread, and Smrkovsky warned measures would be temporary. Clandestine radios faded and political clubs faced ban under Moscow demands.

State Department to hold Pueblo seizure talks
The State Department expects another meeting on the Pueblo seizure but did not specify a date. North and South Korean negotiators spent 107 minutes at Panmunjom without progress in the 20th session since the ship’s capture on January 23 off North Korea. The National Transportation Safety Board reported a 41 percent drop in airline accidents in 1967, though fatal accidents rose with faster aircraft and higher capacity. The Atomic Energy Commission detonated its 18th underground test of the year.
