Wants Ike In South Viet Nam WASHINGTON UPI — Sen. Barry M. Gold rater pledges, if elected, to ask former President Dwight D. Eisenhower to go to South V ; et Nam on a “critical mission" aimed at solving the crisis there. The Republican presidential nominee made the promise in a statement Monday night, on the eve of resuming his campaign travels after a weekend of rest in Washington. He visits a three-county suburban area near Philadelphia today for his first campaign foray into Pennsylvania. Returning to Washington this afternoon, Goldwater was scheduled to speak at the 1964 conference of United Press International editors and publishers. In his statement Monday night, Goldwater said that if he becomes president he will ask Eisenhower “to head up a group of qualified experts to
port back to me >n the situa-| tion in Southeast Asia.” He said he hoped Eisenhower j would be assisted by such “men of ability and experience” as former Rep. Walter H. Judd, R-Minn.; retired Gen. Mark W. Clark, now president of the Citadel Military College of Charleston, S. C. and former United Nations commander in Korea, and Adm. Arleigh A. Bur' former cheif of naval operations. Goldwater's press secretary, Paul Wagner, said in response to a query that the nominee had not yet specifically discussed the idea with Eisenhower, although they had talked of the Viet Nam situation generally. Wagner said the idea took shape at a campaign strategy meeting in Goldwater’s apartment Sunday. Goldwater said: “I am convineed that only through a careful study by the best qualified experts this country has to offer can w^e reach the kind of hard conclusions that are needed to meet the situation in South Viet Nam.

Johnson Will Speak In Dixie WASHINGTON UPI — President Johnson tests the political i climate in the south today before heading West to visit 10 states on the longest trip of his campaign. Johnson planned a bit of whistle-stopping in Alexandria, Va., and an evening speech at Raleigh, N. C., to bolster the vote-seeking efforts of his wife aboard her “Lady Bird Special” train enroute through Dixie. The President arranged to ride with the First Lady from Washington's Union Station across the Potomac to nearby Alexandria on the first leg of her four-day tour. They both were scheduled to address a breakfast - time Democratic rally in the city known as George Washington’s hometown. After this sendoff. the President faced a busy day at the White House on foreign and domestic matters. He left some time, however, to visit with “Scientists for Johnson" and have lunch with "Businessmen for Johnson.” He flies to Raleigh tonight to rejoin Mrs. Johnson after her first day of whistle stop appearances on his behalf. John-
son is scheduled to speak in the Reynolds Coliseum on the Ra-
speech prepared for a trainside rally at Alexandria, Va.,

“I share the irritation when unthinking people make snide jokes about “cornpone” and “red necks” as if the history and tradition of our region could be dismissed with ridi-
cule,” she said.
“For the good of the country” she said, “we must search for the ties that bind us
together but not settle for the tensions that tend to divide us. “We are a nation of laws, not men, and our greatness is our ability to adjust to the national consensus.”
