It was a local call, but it is ringing in Washington now, and the White House has responded. Perhaps Hanoi will. The chain of events leading from Fort Worth to Washington began after the Vietnam Mora torium day observation last month. “Basically, the moratorium, all the publicity, particularly on TV, it distressed me a little because it was all pro-moratorium and seemed to be the will of the people,” recalled F. W. Mac Laughbaum Wednesday. “I’m not a hawk; I just think we must learn from history, and do what we must do.” Laughbaum, manager of a sub urban clothing store, said most of the people he knew were op posed to what the leaders of the moratorium were saying: “Get out of Vietnam . . . now!” He said he feared American leadership “would he pressured politically into doing something that wouldn’t be best for our country long range.” He decided the people who didn’t hold those views should be heard somehow. “What can I do, or one person do?” he wondered. “What can we do to counsel our leaders that people hold their views . . . That we should get out of Vietnam but we should do it to preserve peace long range?” He called a friend, Jack Butler, editor of the Fort Worth Star- Telegram, told him of his con cern and said, “What do you suggest we do?” One of the answers was an editorial by Butler, asking the President, Sen. John Tower, R- Tex., and Rep. Jim Wright, Fort Worth Democrat, what they thought. The editorial went on to ask other questions for the “silent majority.” “We suspect,” the editorial said in part, “that most of the Ameri can people strongly oppose the things which seem to undermine us in Paris and on the battlefield. “We suspect that we who are with Mr. Nixon are not as vocal and therefore less visible on the national scene. But we really don’t quite know what to do.” NOW SHOWING “DAY OF ANGER” CIRCLE “BABY SITTER” Plus “FOUNTAIN OF LOVE” PALACE Bryan ‘BATTLE OF BRITAIN” QUEEN “ALICE’S RESTAURANT” ycrtwu: V DSiVi \U X Afl V I . I Al V l P M WEST SCREEN ‘BAREFOOT IN THE PARK” Plus “ROMEO AND JULIET” EAST SCREEN “MAD DOCTOR OF BLOOD ISLAND” Plus “BLOOD DEMON” The editorial went on to ask “leadership from the leaders.” Congressman Wright, respond ing to the editorial, launched a bi-partisan drive in the House Tuesday to give Congressional backing to President Nixon’s ef forts to negotiate a “just peace” in Vietnam. He sponsored a resolution throwing House support behind the President and calling on the North Vietnamese government to take some positive action towards peace. The Star-Telegram reported Wednesday the resolution has been signed by more than 125 House members and is picking up momentum. House authorities said they ex pect speedy action by the Foreign Relations Committee. The body is expected to send the resolution to the floor for debate, possibly before the Nov. 13-15 moratorium sponsored by critics of adminis tration policy. House leaders predict passage. The resolution requires neither Senate action nor the signature of the President, It simply ex presses a “sense” feeling of the House. Wright said Nixon telephoned him Tuesday night to thank him for sponsoring the resolution and feels it “will certainly help with the negotiations” in Paris. Nixon predicted, Wright said, that the resolution will win in creasing public attention as it is discussed in the House, and would be noted around the world as a symbol of unity. Wright said Nixon told him the resolution would particularly aid in Vietnam if it receives an overwhelmingly affirmative vote in the House. The resolution, if passed, would be the first such document passed in either house since the Tonkin Gulf Resolution in 1965. Wright said the resolution “was the most effective way I could imagine to show the deep and basic unity of the American people which underlies the super ficial appearance of disunity.” He added: “We believe that this resolution firmly expresses the feelings of the preponderant majority of the American people. We hope that it will provide a step toward the goal, which all of us share, of peace and justice in Vietnam.” And Laughbaum, when told of the congressional and presidential response to an idea born of a phone call, exclaimed: “That’s great!” End the 9 to 5 conspiracy, The “organization man” bit.
