Kingsport Times-News from Kingsport, Tennessee (2024)

KINGSPORT TIMES-NEWS Sunday, April 18, 1965 Johnson Renews Offer Continued From Page 1 able response to his proposal for a massive economic development program for Southeast Asia. But Johnson, said there also was tragedy and disappointment in the. Communist slaying of U.S. aid official Joseph Grainger and the killing of hundreds of South Vietnamese as well as other Americans. Johnson emphasized it that Communist infiltration was continuing.

"We are told by some that there is no hope for peace unless we surrender Viet Nam." the President said. we will not do." Johnson said he regretted that American planes had to continue their bombing raids on Communist North Viet Nam. But he stressed that these attacks were directed at bridges, highways, supply routes and other targets of "concrete and steel, not human life." In contrast, he said the Communist Viet Cong, directed from the north, were killing people every day in South Viet Nam. Johnson said he understood the concern of people who want the warfare to end in Viet Nam. But he added: "The compassion of this country and the world must go out to the men, women and children killed every day in South Viet "Infiltration continues.

Death In the night continues. And we must also The President said America feels "a deep sadness that men must still die and families still be left homeless from the brutality of war." "We mourn the death of Joseph Grainer who worked to improve the lives of villagers in Viet Nam and we mourn: for all the others on both sides who found this week to be their last, Johnson said. "I regret the necessities of war have compelled us to bomb North Viet Nam. We have carefully limited those raids. They have been directed at radar stations, bridges and ammunition dumps not at population centers.

They are directed at Communist concrete and steel, not human lives. "I understand the feelings of those who regret that we must undertake air attacks. I share those feelings." The President, deeply suntanned, d. spoke with a look of grim determination as he read his 12-minute statement. He then walked back into his ranch house.

Mrs. Johnson sat nearby on the porch as the statement was read by her husband, who was wearing a sport jacket and slacks. Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara, Johnson's weekend house guest, also was standing Johnson on the insisted porchat the United States "will finally settle for no less" than an honorable peace in Viet Nam. "We strive for peace," he said.

"We will not yield to aggression. We will use what power we must-but no more than we need." In his statement Saturday, Johnson actually expanded on the "unconditional discussions" offer he had made in a speech to the nation-and to the world -April 7 from Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. His invitation to "come to the meeting room" was addressed to any who doubted the sincerity of that offer-as Communist China, North Viet Nam, and the Soviet Union all have done. In reply also to critics of his offer in the same speech of $1 billion in U.S. aid to Southeast Asia as part of his proposed economic development program, Johnson declared: "We do not seek to buy peace.

If the price of ending aggression is blood and men, we are willing to pay that price."

State Troopers In Strike Continued From Page 1 normally high" sales of firearms and ammunition in the area producing a situation "fraught with danger." The governor visited Lawrenceburg and spoke with local officials and representatives of the union and plant this week. He said he was "not attempting to mediate "the labor dispute in ordering troops to the area. "It is not my purpose to tell the employes of Murray Ohio whether they should vote for or against union or management in any future election. It is not my purpose to tell employes of Murray Ohio whether to return to work or participate in a strike." "Law and order have broken down and we are simply going into the community to maintain a peaceful atmosphere," he said. Clement, who once used National Guard troops during school desegregation crisis in Clinton, would not disclose the number of highway patrolmen dispatched to Lawrenceburg.

"We will use whatever number is necessary," he said. In developments Friday, a complaint was filed by Teamsters Union attorneys in federal court here charging that Sheriff Harold Brown and Police Chief B. P. Scoggins "violated the constitutional rights of pickets and those of others by refusing them the right to picket." Earlier Friday a chancery court amended an injunction to further restrict Teamsters union pickets at the Murray plant. The original injunction, which limited pickets to two at each gate, was amended to restrict picketing to employes of the company and to forbid the blocing or hindrance of vehicles entering or leaving the plant.

Local 327 President Don Vestal termed the amended injuncaltion "ridiculous."
