During a question and answer period, he said "I favor keeping the war in Vietnam from escalating any further, and gradually reducing the troops in that country, until a compromise can be reached." Pell also felt that the bombings in North Vietnam have not had a substan• tial effect. It would be to Rus• sian advantage as well to stop the conflict, he said. The senator graduated cum laude from Princeton University where he majored in political science. His father was an American minister to Hungary and he himself served extensive• ly during the war in this area. Senator Pell was an American consulate to Hungary before the Communist takeover. Since that time he has made trips behind the Iron Curtain at least once every two years.
