Dashing into a bomb shelter at his Hanoi hotel during an alert, Salisbury bumped into four visiting U.S. women who belong to such organizations as the National Committee for a Sane Nuclear Policy and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. Due next week are several clergymen, including U.S. Pacifist A. J. Muste, who has led antiwar rallies in New York, Washington and Saigon. Though the ladies and the preachers were traveling without clearance from the State Department, a total of 57 Americans-47 of them newsmen-have validated passports to visit the North.
