Meeting in Washington, the A.D.A. national board--headed by John Kenneth Galbraith, Paul M. Warburg Professor of Economics--endorsed Humphrey by a 71-16 vote, but urged him to make a "forthright call for an unconditional cessation of the bombing" of North Vietnam...
...Humphrey has no coattails-and might even drag them down. Strategically, their position resembles that of many G.O.P. liberals during Barry Goldwater's 1964 campaign. Thus, while Kennedy Operatives Stephen Smith and Theodore Sorensen have endorsed Humphrey, they are expending most of their energy on New York Democrat Paul O'Dwyer's effort to unseat Republican Senator Jacob Javits.

During the two days of Paul Olimpieri's sanctuary, however, Stendahl refused to confront those injustices. He was under no obligation either to defend or to oppose the politics of Olimpieri's action; but without a word about politics, without a word about the war, and without a word about the Divinity School's stand on draft resistance, Stendahl could have responded to the situation...
