Nixon criticizes Humphrey stand
By United Press International Richard M. Mixon said Tuesday that Hubert H. Humphrey may have endangered the Paris talks with his promise to halt the bombing of North Vietnam if Hanoi would give some evidence of willingness to de-escalate the war.
Nixon said no presidential candidate should play the "trump card" of a bombing halt because this would encourage North Vietnam to stall the Paris talks in hopes of getting a better deal out of the next administration.
"I will still hold my position that as long as the negotiations in Paris hold out any reasonable
hope of success . . . I will not indicate what I might do if those negotiations failed, because that will assure that they fail," Nixon told newsmen in Detroit.
Humphrey, campaigning in Knoxville, Tenn., sharpened his attack on third-party candidate George C. Wallace, calling him an "apostie of hate and racism" who threatens to topple the American political system. He compared Wallace's candidacy to the rise of Hitler in prewar Germany.
