LBJ’s Viet Policy
Gets Public Mauling
WASHINGTON (UPI) —Pres
ident Johnson's effort to shape
consensus on his Viet Nam
policy is taking a very public
mauling at the hands of some
of his own party’s members on
the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee.
Secretary of State Dean
Rusk’s defense of U.S. policy in
Viet Nam before the committee
Monday triggered an angry,
shouting quarrel among the
panel's Democrats that was
witnessed by a nationwide
audience.
Republicans, sensing the
political implication of the
scene, confined their questions
to the ostensible subject of the
hearing—the administration’s
$3.4 billion foreign aid bill—and
let the divided Democrats
squabble publicly over Viet
Nam.
Chairman J. William Ful
bright, D-Ark., indicated the
committee might halt testimo
ny on the aid measure entirely
and resume its widely publi
cized hearings on Southeast
Aslan policy reld earlier this
year.
Fulbright said there is “great
uncertainty in the country”
over the war, and Sen. Wayne
L. Morse, D-Ore., glaring at
Rusk through his horn-rimmed
glasses, declared: "Whether
the administration likes it or
not, that’s the issue.”

Morse immediately lashed
out at him, accusing Rusk of
trying to use the hearing to
present one-sided and "falla
cious" arguments. He demand
ed that "a large body of
authorities on international
law" who disagree with Rusk
be called to testify.
Sen. Frank J. Lausche, D

guidelines could lead to a de

Monday Charlton County
school officials, formerly re
ported defying the guidelines,
sent In the compliance agree
ments but vowed to follow their
own Interpretation of the rules
until Washington clarifies them.
“I’ve spent a hundred dollars
on phone calls to Washington to
see what they would accept In
our case,’’ said Charlton Supt.
James Ray. "We managed to
get it partially clarified, and
we will go ahead with fulfilling
the guidelines to the best of our
interpretation.
“We never intended to hold
out and be a stubborn, back
ward outfit. Such is chaos, not
educational planning."
The systems listed by the
state education department as
withholding compliance are
Sumter, Toombs, and Effing
ham counties and the Amerlcus
city system, all of which have
indicated they will not comply,
and Randolph, Seminole, Ter

Ray said the Charlton schools
would proceed with its freedom
of choice plans, and would
transfer Negro teachers to
white schools in numbers suf
ficient to teach transferring Ne
gro pupils there.
No pupils would be moved to
“force” integration, Ray main
tained. He indicated Washing
ton officials would have to rule
on whether Charlton’s system
produced sufficient integration.
“We have tried to do what
they wanted,” Ray said. “What
ever comes, we’ll take it.”
