Vance Reports
No Progress
SEOUL (AP) President
Johnson’s trouble shooter, Cy
riu R. Vance, had "rough
going” yesterday in talks with
South Korean leaders, Korean
sources reported.
Vance met for almost three
hours with Premier Chung ll
kwon and top Cabinet ministers
on problems r ised by the crisis
involving South Korea’s wor
ries over Its defense posture in
the face of Communist North
Korean threats. The sources
reported little progress was
made.
Vance planned yet another
meeting with Chung today and
was expected later in the day
to pay his sec ;nd visit to Presi
dent Chung Hee Park. Whether
that, would be Vance's final
conference here nobody in
authority was willing to say.
The atmosphere of strain had
been produced by developments
since Jan. 21, when a North Ko
rean Communist commando
team invaded Seoul in an at
tempt to assassinate President
Park, and by North Korean
capture of the U.S.S. Pueblo.
South Koreans planned to be

meeting of the Military Armis

village of Panmunjom, request
ed by the U.N. Command to
discuss North Korean violation
of the armistice.
The presence of South Korean
defense officials at thr meeting
with Vance indicated that high
on the agenda was South Ko
rea’s defense needs. The South
Koerans insist that these needs
are far more than the Ameri
cans concede. South Korea
wants a better air force and
m.vy, now greatly mismatched
by Communist North Korea.
The army wants modernized
arms because much of this
country’s weaponry is of World
War II vintage.
The Sout'i Koreans were pic
tured as in a mood to tell Vance
—and through him Johnson—
that this country would act in
dependently on defense meas
ures unless the United States
recognized what Seoul con-,
siders ,to be a serious threat
implied by the assassination
attack on the South Korean
president.

Draft Boards Take
Hard Line on Objectors
WASHING! uN APX The
two national organizations that
counsel conscientious objectors
to military service say draft
boards are taking a harder line
toward such young men.
“War’ psychology has made
it more difficulty to get .a C-0
classification," says Arle Ta
tum, executive secretary of the
Central Committee for Con
scientious Objectors.
“Very lately we’ve been get
ting some cases that seem to
indicate a growing hard line,”
adds J. Harold Sherk, execu
tive secretary of the National
Service Board for Religious Ob
jectors.
Selective Service says there
haj been no increase in the pro
portion of draft registrants
holding C-0 exemptions. But it
ha no figures to show how
many such exemptions are
granted in any given year or
how many men apply for one
and are refused.
Handles Vietnam Protesters
Tatum’s organization, based
in Philadelphia, has become
linked to some V'H-'-n. pro
tests because it will-help selec
tive objectors—young men op
posed specifically to the Viet
nam war.
The National Service Board,
op n rating a block from the
White House, is more religion
oriented than the Central Com
mittee and does not accent the
principle of selective objection.

Two Classifications ’ vides no literature for men
Selective Service uses two
classifications for C-Os. It can
give a 1-0 classification to a
man who for religious reasons
opposes any induction into mili
tary service. The . ran can be
drafted for two years of civilian
national-service work, how
ever, for example as, a hospital
orderly.
A man with a I-A-0 classifi
cation can be inducted into
military service but not re
quired to bear arms. These
men often serve >s medics.
Selective Service says there
are 1.7 conscientious objectors
pe-' 1,000 registrants, the same
as during the Korean War. At
th- end of the year, 11,'Ml men
were classified I-O, An addi
