President Johnson sat with head bowed at a
prayer breakfast in Washington earlier in the
year. He prayed then for strength of purpose
at a time "when we are tempted to turn from
the tasks of duty and lay down the work that is

ours to do." The President seemed certain to gain

the Democratic presidential nomination, but Sunday night he vowed he would not accept a second
full term and called his decision "irrevocable."

tonight, we can concentrate more
of our energies on trying to bring
about peace in the world and
that we would have a better
chance to do it."
The initial reaction to his
decision not to run, both at home
and abroad, was stunned disbelief. Several prominent Democrats
spoke of organizing a draft.

Snowballing Rumor Says
Oswald Will Quit Tuesday

A rumor that President

VV. Oswald would
resign revived
last weekend began circulating
two months ago. Officials in the
University administration said in
late January that if "Dr. Oswald
doesn't resign in the February
board meeting, then he will in
the April meeting."
The prediction came immediately after a student protest demonstration against Defense Intelligence Agency recruiters here.
President Oswald was criticized
for allowing antiwar protests,
though the administration later
barred sit-i- n demonstrations.
When the February Board of
Trustees meeting passed and Dr.
Oswald did not resign, the rumor subsided and did not reappear
until Dr. John Summerskill, president of San Francisco State College in California, resigned under pressure from politicians and

SF State regents.
It was rumored in March tiat

By Friday, the rumor of Dr.
Oswald's resignation were widespread. Contacted by the Kernel
Friday morning, four separate
administrators identified Dr. Lyman Cinder as the chosen interim
president, and felt it was "pretty
definite" that Dr. Oswald would
resign Tuesday in the poard meeting.

The rumor comes in the wake
of a Rational Council meeting

at the University administration
for permitting the council tomeet

that the increasingly conservative

Final Confrontation
Friendly cries of "peace" were the only reactions from SDS members
herefrom across the nation as two UK Rangers walked through the
Student Center Grille Sunday afternoon after returning from maneuvers. The SDS National Council had just closed its four-da- y
meeting at UK and delegates were relaxing in the grill, talking
tilings over and waiting to begin their long trips home. (Story on

Sunday afternoon after a more
or less uneventful four days here.
The University's fears of possible disorder, which prompted

the press, proved unfounded. No
outside groups showed up to
disrupt the council, and the only
outward reaction from
UK-stud- ents

was curious gawking.

?

The press ban, which the University had hoped wouldnotonly
reduce the chances fordisruption
but also protect its image from
conservative elements in the state,
seems largely to have backfired.
Members of Lexington commercial media succeeded in entering the National Council meeting in spite of the press ban,
and other media, such as the
Kernel, managed to get around
the ban "legally" by talking to
council participants outside the
meeting locations.
What resulted, then, was that
the meeting was probably publicized just as much as if there

change is required."
He said SDS decided in the
council meeting to join in a
lawsuit against the draft.
The lawsuit will challenge the
issue of an individual's right to
"selective" conscientious objector status. The immediate case is
the war in Vietnam.
McCarthy said a person should
be able to object to specific wars
"on moral and political grounds,"
and not just to wars in general.
The group does not necessarily
expect to win the case, although
it feels its cause is right, he said.
While the case is pending,
he said, the SDS can file an
injunction against draft boards
who try to induct people wantstating to file for selective C-us.
This delay is valuable, McCarthy said, because it means
that people in the movement who
would otherwise be drafted can
spend additional time working
on draft resistance and so on.
A resolution on the "black
liberation movement", was also
passed which said SDS should
take the responsibility of making
visible the underlying reasons
and actions of the "black move-

Uni-

versity was made somewhat suspect because it had tried to impose on press coverage.
This seems to have resulted
in more adverse publicity than
might have been expected with
no ban at all.
And the SDS National Council itself how did it fare?
Tim McCarthy, SDS assistant
national secretary, described the
council as "not especially exciting, but remarkable for the
number of people and for the
similarity of feelings about the

group's direction."
By the end of the council
meeting, more than 400 people
had registered. Many of these
came from across the nation
from California to .New York.

view of the black movement presented by the national news
media.
An amendment to the resolution said SDS sliould join with
the black movement to make
it more broadly based.
The issue that produced the
most division among SDS members was what course the group
should follow during the election
campaign. A few suggested work-

ing within the established political channels and expressed support for candidates such as Sen.

Robert Kennedy and Sen. Eugene
McCarthy. Others wanted to work
within the Peace and Freedom
party and similar organizations.
Many expressed the view that
liberals such as Sen. Krnnedy
and Sen. McCarthy were capitalizing on the efforts of radical
groups to further their own aims
but without getting to the core
of what SDS feels should be
changed within American society.
No real consensus could be
reached, however, and all resolutions on the election campaign
were tabled.
The council ended peaceably.
The UK campus gained little
new exposure due to the essentially closed meeting other than some
diversion.

O

McCarthy said Sunday afternoon that discussion and resolutions on the draft provided the
council's main issue.
The main resolution on the
draft adopted by the group, he
said, encouraged SDS chapters
to organize around the issue of
the draft on campuses and to use
it as a tool to reach other issues.

"The war and the draft both
point to basic traditions in our
society," McCarthy said. "These
aren't mistakes but logical extensions of the direction of this

ment."
McCarthy said the action
would counter an "anarchistic"

Johnson Will Not Seek A Second Full Term
Continued From Tage

John F. Kennedy, and he quoted
from the late President's Inaugural address that "this generation of Americans is willing to
pay any price, bear any burden,
meet any hardship, support any

friend, oppose any foe, to assure
the survival and the success of

liberty."
"We have kept that compact,"

Mr. Johnson said, tears welling
in his eyes. "I shall continue to
keep it, whatever the trials and
tests ahead. The strength of this
country will lie . . . in the unity

of our people."
The President's decision was
a well kept secret from all but
his most intimate associates. Significantly, the only cabinet member standing by in Mr. Johnson's
White House office during the

speech was Defense Secretary
Clark M. Clifford, a friend and
adviser since the President's congressional days.
Mr. Johnson informed Mr.
Humphrey of his decision not to
run during a brief visit to the
Vice President's apartment shortly before the vice president's departure for Mexico City early
Sunday. Later Mr. Humphrey
said it was no surprise to him.
There seemed little doubt
that, if Mr. Johnson chose to
play the role of kingmaker at
August's Democratic national
convention, it would be Mr. Humphrey who would receive his
blessing and considerable support.
Ever since that day in 1960
when John F. Kennedy decided
to ask Mr. Johnson to be his
running mate over the objections
of his brother, Robert, relations
between the two strong-wille- d
men has been civil at best.
in- - the years of John Kennedy's presidency, the bad blood
between Robert Kennedy and Mr.
Johnson grew, in 1964, President
Johnson ruled out his entire cabinet, including Atty. Gen. Robert
Kennedy, as possible vice presi- -

dential running mates. Many
thought the action was directed

solely at Mr. Kennedy.
Mr. Johnson's family was with
him in the oval room office as he
delivered his address. Their eyes
were fixed on him during the
speech, anticipating the announcement they knew was coming. Only at the end did they
smile for him.
The President's historic statement was not included in the
prepared text of the speech distributed to newsmen about 90
minutes before he went on the
air. But White House Press Secretary George Christian, in the
understatement of the year, said
Mr. Johnson might have an additional announcement.
"I have concluded that I
should not permit the presidency
to become involved in the partisan divisions that are developing in this political year," Mr.

At Funeral Service
said slowly and emphatically. He wiped at his eyes
and his forehead.
"With America's sons in the
field far away, with America's
future under challenge here at
home, with our hopes and the
world's hopes for peace in the
balance every day, I do not believe that I should devote an
hour of my time to any personal
partisan causes or to any duties
other than the awesome duties
of this office.
Accordingly, I shall not seek

ready to seek an honorable peace

and ready to defend an honored

cause, whatever the price, whatever the burden, whatever the
sacrifices duty may require."
With a final "Good night and
God bless all of you," the Chief
Executive concluded his speech.
The clock on the wall of the oval
room read 9:41 p.m. (EST).
Mrs. Johnson rushed to his
side and threw her arms around
him as he rose from his chair
behind the huge mahogany desk.
Lynda, who had returned to the
White House only hours before
after seeing her husband off to
Vietnam, followed with a hug
and a kiss. So did Luci.
Luci's husband, Airman l.C.
Patrick J. Nugent, who is expected to go to Vietnam himself
soon, strode up to shake hands
with the President.
Mr. Johnson smiled broadly,
comforted by the warmth of his
family. Linking arms they walked
out of the office to the second
floor White House family quarters.
Outside, along the Pennsylvania Avenue side of the White
House nearly 250 persons gathered, many of them wearing
McCarthy buttons. Three were
arrested for disorderly conduct
when they refused to move across
the street to Lafayette Park.
"Thanks LBJ" read the signs
carried by several young men.
"This is the first decent decision Johnson has made," another
sign read. There were noisy arguments between
n
and
factions. But
others in the crowd merely stood
there, their eyes fixed on the
brightly lit executive mansion,
as if being there put them that
much closer to history.
The President did not put
any time limit on his partial
bombing halt.
"Tonight I have offered the
first in what I hope will be a
series of mutual moves toward
peace," the President said, and
he outlined these further steps:

nouncement "the greatest shock
I've ever had in politics. This
is like a Pearl Harbor in poli-

tics."
When Texas Cov. John Con-nall- y
was handed a note telling
him of President Johnson's announcement, one of the governor's aides concluded from the
look on his face there must have
been a death in the family.
Richard M. Nixon, the only
Presidential
major Republican
candidate, said he had not expected President Johnson to withdraw. He predicted that Vice
President Hubert H. Humphrey
or "someone espousing the Johnson Philosophy" would seek the
Democratic nomination in the
President's place.
Vice President
Humphrey,
reached by newsmen in Mexico
City, saidthePresident'sdecision
was "a sad moment for me."
But he said President Johnson's
speech will "serve a great cause,

the cause of peace."

At White House
Rep. Spark M. Matsunaga,
felt President Johnson
in announcing he would not seek

had made "the

ulti-

mate sacrifice for world peace."
Critics of President Johnson's
Vietnam policy, like Sen. J. William Fulbright,
viewed
the President's decision as "an
act of a very great patriot."
The overwhelming congressional reaction to the President's
surprise announcement was summed up by Sen. Jacob K. Javits
(R--

Y.).

"In such a

grav e hour of war

and national doubt, the President
has lifted the presidency to its
proper place far away from politics."
Sen. Frank Church
like Sen. Javits a critic of President Johnson's policies in Vietnam, said: "it was Lyndon Johnson's finest liour.
"Every American tonight
should honor the President of
the United States," Sen. Church
said. "He is taking those steps
best suited to bring an end to
the war in Vietnam, and he is
making the supreme political sacrifice to further strengthen his
search for peace."
President Johnson, whose penchant for keeping his plans secret
is well known, was 100 percent
successful concerning his decision not to run for another term.

Sen. Eugene J. McCarthy's
youthful volunteers reacted yesterday as though they had driven
President Johnson from the White
House, but the Minnesota Democrat said any such conclusion
would be unfair.
Sen. McCarthy also believed
that Vice President Hubert H.

President Johnson's war policies,
would become a candidate.
Sen. McCarthy, now the only

conten-

der in Tuesday's Wisconsin Democratic Presidential Primary, said
the New Hampshire Primary and

Sen. McCarthy, after his initial shock when he learned at
Carroll College in nearby Waukesha that President Johnson had
removed himself from the race,
showed little outward emotion.

F. Kennedy's route to the White
House.
