THE BATTALION
National Anti-War Committees
Seek to Stop Disunity Reports
By Jerry T. Baulch
Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON (A>) _ The two
national committees planning
mid-November get-out-of-Vietnam
demonstrations sought Tuesday to
squelch reports that they are at
odds over strategy by endorsing
each other’s plans.
And Sam Brown, leader of the
Vietnam Moratorium Committee,
took note of Vice President Spiro
T. Agnew’s denunciation of the
Oct. 15 Moratorium Day by say
ing: “It’s sad when we have a
man in high office so out of touch
with the people of the country.”
In response to Agnew’s week
end speech that the demonstra
tion only “served as an emotion
al purgative” in a prevaling
“spirit of national masochism,”
Brown said “I don’t consider my
self a defective masochist.”
At a newis conference, Brown
endorsed the demonstrations
planned in Washington and San
Francisco Nov. 13-15 by the New
Mobilization Committee and then
told of his own committee’s plans
for grass roots antiwar activity
Nov. 13 and 14.
Shortly afterward, leaders of
the New Mobilization Committee
held a news conference in the
same room endorsing the Vietnam
Moratorium Committee plans.
Then they detailed plans for their
own demonstrations here—a 40-
hour “March Against Death” to
be followed by a mass march past
the White House.
Stewart Meachan, one of half a
dozen who spoke at the New Mo
bilization news conference and a
co-chairman of the group, con
ceded there is a problem in having
simultaneous demonstrations by
two groups but he said “We have
our offices together( we’re work
ing together to smooth things
out.”
The New Mobilization Commit
tee’s formal announcement noted
that the mutual endorsement was
worked out at a four-hour meet
ing Monday night.
But the announced goals of the
two organizations differ.
Brown said his committee mere
ly wants President Nixon to order
an immediate withdrawal of all
American troops from Vietnam.
The National Mobilization Com
mittee went further in a “posi
tion paper” which said the United
States must “stop all military
action against the Vietnamese,
withdraw all troops and equip
ment and dismantle all bases and
withdraw all support from the
Thieu-Ky government.”
These three points, the paper
said, “are not capable of negotia
tion ... they must be announced.”
