TODAY’S EDITORIAL Bombing Halt Fails

ENOUGH TIME has passed since President Johnson announced the total bombing halt in Vietnam to

assess the results.

Has the action moved the Paris peace talks closer to a settlement? Has it led to a reduction in the intensity of fighting on the ground? While it was supposed to lead the conflict in that direction, one is hard-pressed to find signs of progress on either front. The President's action was essentially an act of faith, a gesture from which he hoped and prayed good results would flow. “We could be misled.” President Johnson said, “and we are prepared for such a contingency. We pray to God it does not occur.” Well, it has occurred. The immediate diplomatic response of North Vietnam was that it did not consider itself bound to reciprocate and that it viewed the bombing halt as a “great victory” for its side. The Paris peace talks have shown little progress since then. The results on the military front have been no more encouraging. Not only did North Vietnam not reciprocate, it actually intensified its war effort following the bombing halt. The Reds stepped up their rocket and mortar bombardment of the U.S. base at Da Nang, violated the Demilitarized Zone by establishing new supply camps, and used the bombing halt as a breathing period in which to move more men and supplies south. A week after the President’s action, UPI reported that U.S. reconnaissance planes “have detected numerous military truck convoys moving toward South Vietnam since the bombing halt began . . .” Shortly thereafter, a dozen violations of the DMZ were noted, and it was reported that bombardment of Da Nang was more intense than before the bombing halt. A wire service dispatch said the enemy “fired 65 rockets and mortar shells—their heaviest salvos in almost three months—into the allied military complex.” Defense Secretary Clark Clifford has suggested the United States consider resuming the bombing if Hanoi does not show good faith in Paris. Both to protect American fighting men and to express impatience with the pace of the Paris talks, such action may have to

be taken

Democrats critical of program

INDIANAPOLIS (UPI)— Democratic minority leaders in the 1969 Indiana Legislature guardedly criticized the majority Republicans in state government today for leaving every, body in the dark on a tax and revenue program. At a news conference during a lunch break after the opening session of the fifth biennial Indi • ana Legislative Conference, Sen. David Rogers of Bloomington and Rep. Frederick Bauer of Terre Haute complained that the lawmakers have not been given an outline of an effective program to solve the money crisis. “We have heard nothing that makes sense to us,” Rogers said. “A fiscal crisis is upon us and we are not even sure any Republican legislator is privy to the governor on how to meet that crisis. Local option—just that phrase alone—means nothing.*' Rogers and Bauer said local option taxation could mean an

“effective device for raising public funds” or it could mean “a disguised state tax in. crease.” The comments were evoked by Gov .-elect Edgar D. Whitcomb's campaign and postelection statements that he believes state government can operate without a general increase of state taxes. But Bauer and Rogers praised the Republican majorities in both houses for their cooperation and “bipartisan determination to forego bickering.” Never, theless, they read a letter to Whitcomb reminding him that “60 days passes quickly and if because you delay public disclosure of your plans or forego seeking legislative advice, no budget is passed, dissent will be directed to the governor’s office.” Earlier, the lawmakers learned that in the opinion of the Citizens Conference on State Legislatures, the legislative branch is “the most seriously ill segment of state government.

ON THE

RIGHT

Malosky’s have three daughters: Andrea Ann, Laure Jo, and Beth Ann. When they first moved to Indiana they settled in Brazil and then later moved to Greencastle. They now reside at 206 Hillsdale Avenue, Greencastle. Rev. Malosky has been employed as a Correctional Counselor at the Indiana State Farm, Putnamville, for the past 2 1/2 years. His wife, a registered nurse, works part-time at Putnam County Hospital, Greencastle. They are members of St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church and belong to the Benevolent Fraternal Order of Elks #762, Brazil. Mrs. Malosky is a member of Beta Sigma Phi Sorority. Until such time as a suitable position as a curate (associate pastor) or pastor affords itself, Rev. Malosky plans on continuing to work as a Correctional Counselor at the Indiana State Farm. Friends of Rev. and Mrs. Stephen J. Malosky are cordially invited to join them in celebrating his Reception at St. Andrew’s Tuesday at 7:30 p.m.

THE KIDS

The day’s news brings a report of the interrogation of Mr. Tom Hayden by the House Committee on Un-American Activities. Mr. Hayden is a co-founder of the Students for a Democratic Society, and its principal guru, and he was in Washington to tell the Committee (obscenely, of course, you wouldn’t want to suspect him of adopting middle class values) that is silly and no-good, and that America hasn’t seen anything of student rioting, wait till the kids grow up who are now seven and eight years old -- the best argument for infanticide since

King Herod’s.

Mr. Hayden’s older kids aren’t doing so bad. Last week at the University of Wisconsin 400 students gathered to hear a discussion on South Africa. At the meeting’s opening, a student rose from the rear of the auditorium and asked the crowd whether it

chose to hear the speakers, the majority said no, so the invited speakers, one of them an American expert on South Africa, another the South African Director of Information, were jeered off the platform. A third speaker, a former South African who left his country to protest against the lack of freedom there for the Bantu, refused to speak, giving as his reason that he saw

no more reason to tolerate a lack of freedom of speech in America, than he did in South Africa. The moderator of the program told a reporter that he found the student’s behavior understandable. Why? Because, he said, the black students at the University of Wisconsin should have been consulted about the Continued on Page 3
