ATLANTA (UPD— The Rev.
Ralph Abernathy Is scheduled
to return to strife-torn Charles
ton, S. C. the latter part of this
week and intensify the South
ern Christian Leadership Con
ference’s campaign to win
union recognition for the strik
ing hospital workers.
A spokesman for the Atlanta
based SCLC, that’s headed by
Abernathy, said civil rights
workers in Charleston may
have to change tactics, but
wouldn’t elaborate.
The South Carolina port city
has been racked by demonstra
tion for nearly three months
yet the SCLC spokesman
termed them the least costly of
any civil rights protest actions
in recent years.

Nixon Aim: Impress Thieu
On Urgency of Ending War
Although withdrawal of 25,000 U.S. troops grabbed the
headlines, President Nixon also had three “behind-the
scenes” reasons for meeting with South Vietnam’s Presi
dent Nguyen Van Thieu on Midway Island.
• Nixon wanted to convince Thieu that it is in South
Vietnam’s interest for the United States not to stay in Viet
nam in force for years to come.
Key Nixon strategists now are convinced the longer the
United States remains in South Vietnam with huge num
bers of men, the more the politics, the economy and the
culture of that country will be warped. The Communists
are given a rallying cry that must in the end win them
more converts. Past a certain point in time, the longer
the United States stays in force, the less able the South
Vietnamese will be to develop their ewn strength. It is like
the man who relies so much on a crutch, he never learns
to walk by himself.
These American advisers remember Laos, whose politi
cians wouldn’t co-operate and whose armies didn’t begin
to fight until U.S. aid was cut drastically. Onfy then did the
Lao realize they were on their own to sink or swim. They
decided to swim.
• Nixon wanted to convince Thieu that time was running
out, that Thieu must come up, and quickly, with some prac
tical political plans for a postwar South Vietnam. This
advice could best be done in face-to-face talks. In a memo
randum, or in messages sent through an American ambas
sador, this sort of talk tends to sound like an ultimatum,
the last thing Nixon wants.
Nixon wants Thieu to face the fact that there must be
peace within some reasonably short period of time—not
four, five or six years in the future.
He wants Thieu to set his sights accordingly and get to
work quickly on getting the democratic forces in South
Vietnam ready for that peace.
• Nixon wanted to urge Thieu in person to come up
quickly with some sort of a practical approach, satisfactory
to the South Vietnamese, for bringing the war to a satis
factory end.
Nixon wants more progress in the negotiations. Since
his administration has decided that the political solution
must be what the South Vietnamese want, the basic initia
tive in Paris therefore depends on the South Vietnamese.
Though administration officials talk blithely of U.S. nego
tiations on further troop withdrawals and South Vietnamese
talk on political solutions, the hard fact is that troop with
drawals are so dependent on political solutions that U.S.
troop negotiations in Paris can’t make headway until
Thieu’s government makes progress in its approaches to
the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese on the political mat
ters.
Thieu’s approach on this Is somewhat leisurely by U.S.
thinking. Nixon wants to implant a sense of urgency in the
mind of South Vietnam’s president.
Nixon Watches
Senators Lose
By HELEN THOMAS
WASHINGTON (UPD — For
President Nixon, and the
Washington Senators, it was the
same old ball game—another
loss.
The President slipped out to
Robert F. Kennedy Stadium at
the last minute Wednesday
night to watch the Senators do

WASHINGTON (NEA)
battle with the Oakland Athle
tics. When he returned from
Midway Island Tuesday Nixon
took note that the Senators had
improved their game during his
absence and “I hope I am not
bad luck for them when I see
them.”
Nixon arrived in time to see
the Senators come from a 4-0
deficit to tie the game up. And
he stayed along with nearly
7,000 other faithful fans to
watch Oakland win it 6-4 in four
extra innings.
But before the door closed.
Nixon enjoyed himself. He
shared the presidential box with
daughter Julie Eisenhower and
her husband David, munching
popcorn and sipping coffee. He
left the ballpark looking disap
pointed, like any other Senator
fan in the vicinity.
Mrs. Nixon, meanwhile, ran
uu against some comment
Wednesday on her campaign
for volunteer community pro
grams. The Rev. Joseph
Gibson, pastor of Nash Metho
dist Church in Washington,
confronted her during a White
House gathering for leaders
from social agencies.
Mrs. Nixon had said she was
always interested in “voluntee
rism.” The Rev. Gibson said:
“What we want is more
money for professional help. I
think volunteerism is basically
for whites; blacks can't afford
to volunteer. They’re too tired
to volunteer after they come
home from a day’s work.”
Tile First Lady replied that
professionals could and should
offer volunteer help. bhe
recalled that she used to stay
after class when she was a
teacher in Whittier, Calif., in
order to tutor students who
needed help.
She also revealed that her
daughter Tricia has been
helping two Negro children
catch up on their schooling by
giving them remedial reading
lessons in the White House
living quarters.

The

2ND
Jabalia is one of eight crowded Arab refugee
camps in the Gaza Strip. Within its boundaries
live 33,00 persons in a bleak, day-to-day
existence aggravated by the tension and
hostility of the country they now call home.
What help these Arabs receive is generally
given to them by the United Nations Relief
and Works Agency (UNRWA), whose work is
limited by the succession of terror incidents
and security measures in the region.

Baptists Ponder
Three Resolutions
By M. GENE MEARNS I
NEW ORLEANS (UPD —
Three resolutions demanding j
Baptists accept the Bible as the j
literal truth were up for consid
eration today at the annual
meeting of the 11.3 - million '
member Southern Baptist Con-1
vention.
One of the documents called
for the dismissal of all Baptist
seminary professors who fail to
sign an annual statement af
firming their belief in a funda
mental interpretation of the Bi
ble.
The resolutions were intro
duced in committees Wednes
day by Thomas Simmons of the
Calvary Baptist Church in
Hope, Ark. He asked that:
—Authors of Baptist literature
be required to sign a statement
with each manuscript “affirm
ing their personal belief in the
authority, the doctrinal integrity
and the infallibility of the en
tire Bible, the Word of God.’-
f.nnual Statement
—Delegates “urge the trus
tees and the administration of
each of our seminaries to se
cure from each professor an an
nual statement affirming their
personal belief” in fundamen
tal:sm.
—The Baptist Sunday School
Board and seminary adminis
trations be urged to give prog
ress rt ports on implementation
of the resolutions.
The president of the conven
tion, Dr. W. A. Criswell of Dal
las, is an outspoken fundamen
talist and has written a book
entitled “Why I Preach That
the Bible is Literally True.”
Nevertheless, Criswell said at
a news conference Wednesday
that he did not see why sem
inary professors should be re
quired to sign more statements
of fundamentalist belief.
Other Resolutions
Other controversial resolu
tions introduced would:
—Have the convention refuse
to seat delegates from churches
which have stated policies re-
fusing membership to persons
on the basis of race.
—Have the convention “reject
the racist overtones of the black
manifesto, but respond in some
Christian way to alleviate black
poverty.” The manifesto calls
for white religious institutions to
pay “reparations” to Negroes
for past enslavement of the
race.
