Walker Says Politicians Make Decisions In War PITTSBURGH (UPl)—Form er Maj. Gen. Edwin A. Walker said Tuesday that politicians were making the decisions in the Vietnam conflict and blamed political diplomats for “poor strategy." Walker, who commanded 300,- 000 troops during the Korean war, said politicians today were deciding who and where to fight and in most instances what weapons were to be used. “It is impossible to fight a war when the air targets are picked in Washington,” he said. “Air targets support ground op erations and it is ridiculous to fight a war without being able to bomb the enemy’s airplanes on the ground.” Walker resigned his Army commission and pension on Nov. 4, 1961, because he said he disagreed with political pol icies governing the war in Viet nam. Walker, who spoke at Point Park College here, chided President Johnson and former President Eisenhower. He said the Vietnam problem developed during the Eisenhower adminis tration and spilled over into the Kennedy administration. “President Eisenhower, dur ing his administration, gave po litical problems around the world his usual soft touch in order to get through his admin istration without any major wars,” he said Walker criticized Johnson for supporting simutaneously the views of Gen. William C.' West moreland, military commander in Vietnam, and Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara. Walker said U.S. forces could gain “the offensive capacity to win” in Vietnam if there was a change in the direction of the military line. “I would shorten the line by 200 miles in two months by changing directions at least 30 to 60 degrees and by fighting the enemy on any ground he fought on,” he said. “In chang ing my direction I would de crease the length of the front and the number of boys ex posed to the enemy every day at least 50 per cent. Poor strat egy controlled by political dip lomats keeps us pinned to a north to south line, fighting from east to west.” Anti-Viets Ponder Alliance In Atlanta Area ATLANTA (UPI) — About 60 persons representing various or ganizations met Tuesday night to discuss forming an Atlanta alliance to oppose U. S. Viet nam policy. A spokesman said approxi mately 25 organizations were represented of the 42 in Atlanta opposed to the Vietnam war. No decision was taken on whether to form the alliance Negro state Rep. Julian Bond, the meeting moderator, said the organizations would meet again next week to decide whether to form the alliance. Bond, who said he favored an alliance, added that the organ izations would also try to decide on whether to formulate a pro gram of action. He said, how ever, it would be a loose coali tion and each group could dis sent from policy. Charles Webster of the Amer ican Friends Service Committee said he would call next week’s meeting, which would be held privately. He said the proposed alliance would consider adopting as part of its program the “Vietnam Summer” advocated by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. King’s Southern Christian Leadership Conference was among the groups represented at the meet ing.

BRYANT United Press International ATLANTA (UPI) — Georgia’s capital city, striving to prevent a recurrence of last summer’s racial riots, has planted youth ful “tipsters” in Negro slum areas to report signs of possible trouble to police. “They will not be Informers in the accepted sense of the term,” said Police Capt. Morris Redding, head of the crime prevention bureau. He refers to the Negro youths as "police counselors.” These "counselors,” he Indi cated, are to keep their fingers on the public pulse in “Watts type” districts and warn police when trouble appears to be brewing. Atlanta experienced four nights of rioting last August in Negro slum neighborhoods The trouble was touched off by the shooting of a Negro suspect by police and was given impetus by the slaying of a Negro boy by a white man. The "police counselors” are only a small part of the city’s program to make the summer a quiet one. Recreational facili ties and activities are being broadened and efforts are being made to secure summer jobs for those aged 16 to 21. Some 800 teen-age boys will work a week and play a week at a 450-acre site the city leases at Alatoona Lake. The work will be clearing the wooded area which is to become part of the parks system. Additional small play areas, called “playlots,” are being im provised. Seven were available last summer. There will he 21 this year. There also is a special em ployment agency to find Jobs for teen-agers and encourage businesses to make w r ork for them. Mrs. Peggy Baker, coord inating the job hunting cam paign of the Atlanta Youth Op portunity Center, said she ex- FEAR SMALLPOX KUWAIT (UPI) —Twelve persons have died and 40 confirmed cases have been reported in what Kuwaiti health authorities fear is a smallpox epidemic.
