...March 25, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. requested "all those who love peace" to "combine the fervor of the civil rights movement with the peace movement." Reasoning that the war in Vietnam is morally and politically unjust, as well as inimical to Negroes' struggle for complete equality of opportunity, the Nobel Peace Prize-winner has promised to become an active participant in America's anti-war movement...
...seem a heartless killer while Kennedy gets "an inner scar" from shooting a deer, is still in the book, but has considerably less anti-Lyndon impact than if it had launched the entire epic.

People should not be drafted for unjust wars, the CP says, just as the unemployed should have jobs. If they are drafted, they should not have to fight. Apprentices ought to be exempt, VISTA workers ought to be exempt. Peace Corpsmen shouldn't have to go. The CP program sounds like an appeal for special interest groups...
