Presidential campaign roundup
by United Press International
H. Humphrey
WASHINGTON-Hubert. n. Humphrey yesterday advocated a "flexible and open" policy toward Russia and Red China and proposed that U.S. and Soviet leaders hold informal summit meetings each year to guard against use of their "awesome power" for war.
If elected president, Humphrey said, "I will ask the Soviet leaders to join with us in regularly scheduled annual working meetings at the highest level."
Speaking to the annual conference of United Press International editors and publishers, the vice president also outlined a peace plan for the Middle East.
"The policy of the West—collectively and individually—toward the Communist states must be flexible, seizing opportunities for peaceful engagement whenever the Communist states show themselves responsible," the Democratic Presidential nominee said.
He said he would "make these informal meetings into forums for a new diplomacy, free of the publicity, free of the high expectations that surround irregular meetings."
He said he would propose the meetings because "we share with the Soviet Union a special and parallel responsibility conferred on us by our awesome power-a power that must be used for peace."
Humphrey said he would not meet with the Soviets until he had consulted with America's allies.
The Soviet-led invasion of Czechoslovakia confirmed "our belief that our desire for improved relations with the Soviet Union must not jeopardize our alliances—that we must be ever vigilant—even as we pursue the path to peace," he said.

George Wallace
BRIDGEPORT, Conn.- George C. Wallace moved his third party presidential campaign into the New England area yesterday and was greeted at the airport here by 1,500 supporters and a scattering of dissenters.
The former Alabama governor, in a prepared speech, again attacked the 1968 open housing law.
"When both parties join together to destroy that adage that your home is your castle, they're not fit to run this country," Wallace told the airport gathering.
About 100 anti-Wallace demonstrators marched in a circle behind the crowd carrying signs which read: "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Hate?" "If you liked Hitler, you'll love Wallace."
Signs by Wallace supporters also were in evidence.
FLINT, Mich.—Richard M. Nixon, convinced that George C. Wallace's strength is waning, yesterday concentrated his campaign attack on the third party candidate.
In this major industrial city, regarded by some as one of the blue collar working class strongholds where Wallace has made strong advances, Nixon asked, "Do you want to get something off your chest or do you want to get something done?"
Richard Nixon
"Do you just want to get a moment's satisfaction or do you want to get four years of action?" he said.
Nixon did not mention Wallace by name, but he made his target clear by addressing his questions to "those who are thinking of taking the third party route."
Job interviews scheduled through Business School
One hundred thirty-one companies, ranging from dog-food manufacturers to computer producers, have scheduled campus job interviews.
"Most are looking for seniors with business backgrounds," she said, "but there are exceptions."
Of last year's graduating class, 34 per cent of the students from the School of Business were placed in company positions. The Placement Bureau Summary lists their average starting salary at $675 per month.
Mrs. Mildred Young, placement secretary of the School of Business, said representatives from six different companies will conduct interviews each day in the office of the School of Business.
Mrs. Young said she has sched ules posted regularly in most of the campus buildings, listing
dates of interviews and information on the companies.
"All of the companies," she stressed, "are equal opportunity employers."
Students desiring interviews must schedule appointments in the office of the School of Business, she said.
Mrs. Young said she has literature available from each of the 131 companies.
College Placement Annuals for 1969 are also available. These annuals describe positions open in many companies which will not be represented on campus, she said.
