Don't Use Them Right Now
By The Associated Press
Gen. Curtis E. LeMay says that
neither in Vietnam "nor any place
else" does a situation exist right now
which calls for the use of nuclear
weapons.
But George C. Wallace's s, .ing
mate declared in an interview, "mere
is some place where you're going to
use nuclear weapons," although
"where it is I don't know."
"There will be a point where you
have to defend yourself." said the 64-
year-old retired Air Force chief of
staff.
LeMay said an all-out U.S. effort to
win a military victory in Vietnam
would run "some risk that Red
China might come in, maybe the Rus
sians even might come in."
Red China Weapons'..
He expressed the view, however,
that the Red Chinese "haven't got any
weapons capabilities to do us any
damage anyway, at least not now.
Later on maybe yes. But now they
haven't."
The interview developed these ques
tions and answers:
Eugene's Stand right under your nose
Saddens HHH Campus Activities Swing
NEW YORK (W) Hubert H. Humphrey said yester
day "I feel a little sad" at Sen. Eugene J. McCarthy's
refusal to endorse him for the presidency.
Humphrey said, however, "I'm not prone to start
meeting conditions. I state my own case."
The vice president's comment at an airport news
conference apparently referred to McCarthy's statement
Tuesday night that he would not endorse Humphrey at
this time, but that there were conditions he hoped Hum
phrey would adopt.
McCarthy's Conditions:
McCarthy called for a shift in Vietnam war policy, a
restructuring of the draft system and reform of the Demo
cratic party machinery.
While flying from Boston to New York to accept
the state's Liberal party presidential nomination Humphrey
told newsmen he talked to McCarthy on the telephone
Tuesday. He said the Minnesota senator was more con
cerned about the structure of a South Vietnamese govern
ment than about an immediate bombing halt.
Attacks Running Mates
In his speech prepared for delivery to the Liberal
party, Humphrey turned his guns on the running mates
of Richard M. Nixon and George C. Wallace, and said
someday they might be called "President Agnew" and
"President LeMay."
"It could happen," Humphrey said in reminding his
liberal audience that either Republican Gov. Spiro T.
Agnew of Maryland or retired Air Force Gen. Curtis
LeMay would be only a heartbeat away from the presi
dency if the Democratic ticket is defeated.
Humphrey then praised his own running mate, Sen.
Edmund Muskie of Maine, saying: "I have never had to
drag Ed Muskie kicking and screaming back into the
mainstream of my own campaign—or into the 20th century.
And to borrow the language of Madison Avenue, no other
presidential candidate can make that claim."
Demo Says Nixon
'Reluctant Dragon'
WASHINGTON (AP)
Richard M. Nixon, the GOP
presidential nominee, is a
"reluctant dragon" who fears
face to face debate with his op
ponents. Rep. Fred B. Rooney,
D-Pa., charged yesterday.
Rooney told the House that is
why Republican House mem
bers are stalling action on
legislation to suspend equal
broadcast time requirements
that now are the law for all
political candidates.
He said Nixon's "protectors
in the House are fighting
desperately to keep their
leader from having to face the
American voters without prior
staging by his Madison Avenue
public relations consultants."
Rooney's comments came as
the House went into its 25th
straight hour on a Senate
passed bill to suspend
temporarily the Federal Com-

LeMay: Nuclear Wea
Q. General, you've seen in the cities
where you've appeared with Gov. Wal
lace that you can expect some
heckling.
A. Oh, yes, I expected that. I knew
it was going on but I was surprised at
the amount of it that was going on and
the fact that it's organized by groups
that I know to be Communist oriented.
Q. How do you know that, General?
A. I have more information than a
lot of people. True, I haven't received
any top secret brief:ngs for 3 1 / 2 years
now, since I retired, but I remember a
lot from back then and I remember
the navies of some of these organiza
tions. One of the things that surprised
me is, here we're conducting a demo
cratic process and these people are
trying to interrupt it, using methods
that would put them in jail for disturb
ing the peace just a short time ago.
'Just Another Weapon'?..
- -
Q General, you've said you consider
a nuclear weapon as just another
weapon...
A. It's a weapon. A more poWerful
one, yes, than the other weapons.
Q. And that it would be foolish to tell
the enemy in advance whether you in-
mu n i cations Commission's
equal time rules.
If passed by the House, the
measure would clear the way
for televised debates between
Nixon, Democratic presidential
nominee Hubert H. Humphrey
an d third-party contender,
George C. Wallace.
Rooney, a member of the
House Commerce Committee
that reported on the bill, said
the GOP colleagues regard the
delay as "something of a joke.
"I regard it a ^'

who is from Bethlehem.

tend to use them or not?
A. Well, if you're going to sit in a
poker game with a bunch of card
sharks, and if you tell them "I'm not
going to bet $lO unless I get four
aces," or "I never bluff," or "I never
draw to an ace-high straight," I
guarantee you you're not going to
make much money in a poker game."
Q. Am I correct in saying that there
are some situations in which you
would conceivably use nuclear
weapons but no such situation 'exists in
Vietnam Now:
A. Yes, nor any place else. There is
some place where you're going to use
nuclear weapons. Where it is I don't
know. If you're walking down the
street ftnd somebody starts molesting
you, at what point are you going to use
your fist? I can't tell you, you pro
bably can't tell me either. But there
will be a point where you have to de
fend yourself. I don't know what it is.

MIZE
not too much better than yours I
think there's a risk. There's a risk in
everything. We live in a risky world.
Neither one of us knew whether we
were going to get back from the rally
tonight or not.
We were liable to'get run over by an
automobile or hit by a brick down
there, or any one of a dozen things.
There is some risk to living.
Presumably we looked , at the risks
when we went in there. So there is
some risk that Red China might
come in, maybe the Russians even
might come in. Well, we'd just take a
look at it.
How much risk is there? China?
They've got plenty of problems of
their own over there right now. They
haven't got any weapon capabilities to
do us any damage anyway, at least
not now. Later on maybe yes. But not
.now they haven't.
So unless we put a big army on the
mainland so they could get at it, they
can't hurt us. I think we're foolish to
put a big army there. Every soldier
has recommended against that as long
as I can remember.
Playterinvents the first-day tampon"'
(We took the inside out
to show you how different it is.)
Outside: it's softer and silky (not cardboardy).
Inside: it's so extra absorbent... it even protects on
your first day. Your worst day!
In every lab test against the old cardboardy kind...
the Playtex tampon was always more absorbent.
' Actually 45% more absorbent on the average
than the leading regular tampon.
Because it's different. Actually adjusts to you.
It flowers out. Fluffs out. Designed to protect every
inside inch of you. So the chance of a mishap
is almost zero!-
