Tomorrow is the day for all good men
to come to the aid of their better halves

Johnson Peace Offer
WASHINGTON (A 5 ) President
Johnson said last night that despite
the Communist offensive in Vietnam, 1
•his San Antonio Formula offer'for
peace talks still stands and! “we
would meet them tomorrow.”
Johnson discussed Vietnam, dis
sent at home and unrest in,the cities
in.a wideranging 75-minute' question .
and answer session with a group of
11 College Audents. ,
Johnson said that in seeking'
peace in Vietnam, “we have' gone
just as far as decent and honorable
people can go.”
But he said he stands behind his
1967 offer to halt the bombing of
North Vietnam and talk promptly if
the Communists indicated this would
be productive.
But, addressing the Communists
in effect, he added; “We don’t want
you to take advantage like you did
during the Tet.”
The Jawbone will house two
informal discussions this after
noon with Phillip Abbott Luce,
former leader of American
communism.
All members of Young Amer
icans for Freedom, the organ
ization sponsoring Luce on
campus, will be introduced to
him at a special chapter meet
ing at 2:30 p.m. in the Jaw
bone. Luce will describe var
ious types of effective anti
communist action.
At 4:30 p.m., Luce will meet
12 representatives of the Uni
versity and the press in an in
formal conference. Attending
will be Jeff Long, president ot

'Would Meet Them Tomorrow'
If Hanoi is interested, Johnson
said, it wouldn’t have to change a
“could” to a “will”- or indulge in
any other semantical niceties in
staling its position. ,
As an example, he went on, all
they would have to do “is. drop a
line and say Geneva is the place and
tomorrow is the day.”
Johnson said Hanoi’s answer to
his earlier offer of the San Antonio
formula was.the assault on 44 South
■Vietnamese cities and 24 U.S. bases
“on a sacred day”—the Vietnamese
New Year.
“Yet We would meet them to
morrow,” he added, “but we’re not
going to surrender.”

erence primary to be held on more

In the balloting, students not
only will pick their choice for the
presidency but will express them
selves on referenda issues including
Vietnam and the urban crisis.
Johnson was asked how he felt
about antiwar sentiment and demon
strations on college campuses.
“They sadden me, they trouble
me, I think because I know how they
feel,” the President replied.
He said it would be a “very un
usual student” who wouldn’t be con
cerned, who wouldn’t seek alterna
tives, who wouldn’t want to see the
war ended as quickly as possible.”
The chief executive conceded
that a lot of students “think there is
a better way out than what we’re
doing.”

■ Arguing with considerable emo
tion for his policies, Johnson said:
“You can’t run a war by polls
and you can’t run a peace by polls;
but you can’t be oblivious to public
opinion.”
Johnson expressed the opinion
that if some kind of meter could be
devised •'to measure human •*
and were installed in a National
Security Council meeting, and u t'.ie
council members were asked if they
wanted peace in Vietnam, he would
bet “that needle would swing around
farther than at Berkeley or Texas or
Harvard.” .
He said he is convinced that the
council members are working hard
er for peace than the people on the
campuses he cited.
“I don’t know how to do any
thing better than we are doing,” he
said. “If there were, I would do it.”
