THE OBSERVER I I An Independent Student Newspaper DONALD C. HOLLIDAY, Publisher GAETANO DE SAPIO, Editor

FOUNDED NOVEMBER 3, 1 9 # ...... NOTRE DAME. INDIANA The Observer staff is apparently as divided on the issue o f Vietnam as the nation. For that reason in order to do justice to the feelings o f the editorial board I feel it necessary to print the following two opinions on the President’s speech yesterday. The first one was written by myself in concurrence with other members o f the board. The second is the opinion o f other members o f the staff, —ed. Vote of confidence ... We support enthusiastically the President of the United States in his quest for peace in Vietnam. We feel that his policy as outlined in his speech on Monday is the only rational way out of the war. We have stated before that it is meaningless now to argue about how we got into the war, whether we should have, or the way we have conducted it. Many mistakes have been made in Vietnam — very many. Because they were American mistakes they were amplified a thousand fold with national and international repercussions. But our acknowledged motive for being there — the free determination of the Vietnamese people — can not be impugned. Our mistakes have brought those motives into questions and in the eyes of some, even many Americans, vindicated the position of the North Vietnamese and the Viet Cong. We feel that the President once again articulated the motive and the objective for US presence in Vietnam — peace and the right of self-determination for the Vietnamese people. One can question the eloquence or the poise with which it was presented and call it the same old rhetoic — but that does not make it any less valid. We seek peace. We have made significant gestures to reach a negotiated settlement. We SILENT MINORITY are not for escalating the conflict. We are for removing our troops from Vietnam. The question remains — at what rate? We can not not support “precipitous withdrawal.” It would be sheer stupidity militarily and would make a mockery of our entire commitment to the freedom of the Vietnamese people. The hazards of immediate withdrawal were outlined frankly by the president. They are in the best interests of no one — for they would produce more death and suffering than the war has already. Mike The only acceptable way out of the war is through a phased withdrawal. The President claims he has a time table. We believe him. We feel that he is in the best position to evaluate the rate of the withdrawal. The president also states that he wishes to keep the One to many mornings time table secret so as to not exclude the possibility of a negotiated settlement in the meantime or an North Vietnamese effort at deescalation. Either occurrence would enable Those of us who still note the signs on the walls and 1 ok to see the president to remove troops at a faster rate. We believe that his request for secrecy iswho a is running the tables in the dining hall, have realized that activity for the second Vietnam Moratorium has been progressing sound one. nicely. Unlike the first Moratorium, on October 15, which was The President says too that he needs the support of the American people so thataimed the mainly at reaching the people in whichever rea of the North Vietnamese will not be encouraged to stall in their efforts for peace in the hopecountry each demonstration was to be, the November Moratorium is that America will pick up and leave. We believe that he has a valid point. When theto be more vocal (dare we say strident?) and aimed at the American commitment to peace was not publically announced we could see the value ofadministration in Washington. The first Moratorium was one day long. The November Moratorium will be two days long, the protest and demonstrations to force the government to enunciate its policy. We can notDecember Moratorium three days and so forth until either America see today how the American government could be making a greater effort toward peaceis out of Vietnam or until February of 1971 when the Moratorium or toward the withdrawal of American troops. will be 29 days and the month only 28 days long. We believe President Nixon is pursuing the only course that an American president The last Moratorium was a fascinating and depressing occurance. Beneath the grim humor afforded by the sight of teenie-boppers could pursue. Honestly we believe, Americans must admit that if any other man were from South Bend wearing scores of movement buttons (25 cents in the President’s place he would follow the same course. each at the Community bookstand), tight-lipped theology majors wearing black headbands, and wide-eyed coed • indering around ... vote of no confidence murmuring “outta sight!” , there was a sense of uncontrolled fate that overwhelmed this observer.

We do not believe More than anything else, the Moratorium Day struck r, e as a that Nixon proposed any new initiatives other than those that have cost us the lives giganticof production of Sophocles’Antigone. forty-thousand of our young men. Furthermore, we believe that contrary to Mr. Nixon’sFor those who may not recall the play, it is the story of a young belief, the Paris Peace talks are impervious to any United States action except ourgirl, Antigone, who felt that she must violate the laws of the state in unconditional withdrawal. order to remain faithful to what she saw to be the laws of the gods and her own conscience. It is also the story of a king, Creon, who We applaud the President’s forthright statement that the peace talks had not progressedfelt that he must preserve the good of the state as he saw it, even if it beyond “agreement of the shape of the bargaining table.” This fact leads to the meant the death of Antigone. Creon was not the villain of the play, inescapable conclusion that Hanoi intends to patiently wait for the day when American nor was Antigone wholly the heroine.
