Two ways to look at the Vietnam war
NEW YORK—(UPI)—Secretary of State Dean Rusk said Tuesday night that peace could come to Vietnam in hours if Hanoi agreed to "minimum cooperation" with the United States.
Rusk touched only briefly on Vietnam in a lengthy, philosophical speech at the New York Hilton Hotel while hundreds of antiwar demonstrators massed outside. He flew here ahead of schedule to avoid a confrontation with the pickets.
Addressing the Foreign Policy Association on its 50th anniversary, Rusk warned of the danger of backing down unilaterally in Vietnam.
"Those who are concerned about escalation should know that we
have tried over and over again, through diplomacy and by practical actions on the ground, to start the process of de-escalation, only to face a categorical rejection from the other side," he said.
"Those who would brush aside a security treaty as a scrap of paper should reflect soberly on the dangers which would arise if it should be discovered that our security treaties do not mean what they say."
Noting that every American peace bid has been rejected, Rusk said: "All violence could end within hours with minimum cooperation from the authorities in Hanoi."
Rusk's topic was "The Political Future of the Family of Man."
HAYS, Kan.—(UPI) —Earry Goldwater predicted Tuesday night the Vietnam War will end in 11 months but added U.S. active involvement in the Southeast Asian nation will continue "for at least five years."
"There will be no quick withdrawal from Vietnam," he told a college audience. "We'll be there for at least five, maybe 10 years, but it will be under a negotiated settlement."
The 1964 Republican presidential candidate said he based his prediction "not on any pipeline to the Pentagon, but on an assessment of what I heard in Vietnam
and information coming out of the Pentagon."
Goldwater, speaking to 2,500 persons at Ft. Hays College on a cross-country college speaking tour, urged a stepup in pressures toward a negotiated settlement.
The former Arizona senator said he had no quarrel with the way President Johnson has been handling the war "since last March when he began listening to his military advisers."
But he called for the President to appear on national television and tell the nation why this country is at war.

Classes resume Nov.27; blotter gives wrong date
Rumor says KU students don't need to return from Thanksgiving vacation until Tuesday, Nov. 28. This rumor isn't true.
The official University calendar, put out by the Dean of Women's Office and the University Events Committee, says classes will resume at 7:30 a.m. Monday, Nov.27.
"Nov. 27 is the correct date," said Mrs. Paul Crawford, assistant to the dean of women.
Blotters, given to book buwers at the Kansas Union Bookstore, list Nov. 28 as the date classes resume.
