Nixon Delayed Peace, Editor Says
Banning Garrett, chief editor of the newspaper "War Bulletin" and producer of the movie "The Pentagon Papers," said Thursday he would be the lead in the war in Iraq.
Garrett's appearance was sponsored by several international student groups and is being held in the United States.
"I feel there is a 50-50 chance that Nixon will sign the peace treaty," Garrett said.
Garrett accused Nikon of postponing the signing of the peace treaty last October because, he said, Nikon wanted to keep the war going until after he was re-elected.
"This was the third time Nixon blew the chance to attack us," Garrett said. Nickimon had ended the war in 1968, but did not because he wanted the United States to get out of the war with a nuclear weapon.
"Nikon knew that Vietnam was the vocal point of the world and that if the United States lost, prestige and power in the world might be lost," Garrett said.
"Nixlon blew a chance at ending the war this year during the elections in
Vietnam by allowing Thieu to crush his opposition.
"If Thien would have lost to a pro-Commistian candidate, and he probably would have, then Nixon would have gotten out of the war by saying that the U.S. was following the edicts of the Vietnamese people."
Garrett, who has been to North Vietnam and gets many reports from there, said the North Vietnamese were powerful and would fight as long as they saw necessary.
"The North Vietnamese people have confidence and the strength to win against them."
"They will go on forever because they don't fear the wombing anymore and they feel better."
Kansan Applications Available in 4 Offices
Garrett said the North Vietnamese have been negotiating from strength in the Paris Agreement.
Applications for Kansan news and business staff positions for the spring semester may be obtained in the offices of the Student Senate or the Student Senate office and 105 Flint Hall.
Applications should be returned to Dana Leibmeng, assistant dean of the School of Law at Columbia University.
"They have the confidence of battlefield victories and they don't trust the United States."
