Four more Harvard officials have joined the anti-Goldwater movement.
Previously, William L. Marbury another member of the Corporation, associated himself with 50 of the foremost lawyers in the country in denouncing Goldwater's attacks on the Supreme Court.
Rabbi Ben Zion Gold and Rev. Richard Mumma, members of the United Ministry at Harvard and Radcliffe signed a statement issued by 75 Protestant and Jewish clergymen Tuesday castigating Goldwater as opposed to the demands of Jewish and Christian ethics."
The statement called on all religious people in the country to work actively against Goldwater's candidacy. "Senator Goldwater's social and political views reveal a surrender of responsibility for the future of the world and thereby a retreat from religious responsibility in this world," the statement concluded.
Russ Nixon, editor of the National Guardian, stated he would not vote for any Presidential candidates. Although he described both Johnson and Goldwater as "rightist," Nixon said that third-party candidates had no chance of election.
