"mTTTTffl McCLORY REPORTS From Washington & ON THE RIVER . . . All eyes seem to be focused on the skeleton of a burned out church as U.S. soldiers ride an LST during patrol of the Vain Co Dong River in the Ben Loc District, about 20 miles south of Saigon. The United States Congress may become the next forum for attempting to solve the mystery of the UJS.S. Pueblo. It will be recalled that the Pueblo, while engaged in an intelligence mission offthe North Korean coast in January, 1968, was boarded by armed North Koreans. This resulted in the seizure of the ship, the slaying of one member of the crew, and the imprisonment of the ship's captain, Commander Lloyd M. Bucher, and the 80 surviving crew ipembers. It was not until a few weeks ago that Commander Bucher and the other Pueblo survivors were released, after delivery of an unprecedented "Confession" which Commander Bu-" cher repudiated before signing. Subsequently, the Navy convened a Court of Inquiry in Coronado, California, which appears to have raised more questions than it has resolved. Some questions which continue to puzzle a bewildered American public are these: a) Why was such an antiquated ship as the Pueblo, a remodeled freighter constu fried back in 1944, assigned to perform such a critical mission? b) With inadequate armament with which to defend itself, why did the military have virtually no other plans for protecting the Pueblo and her crew? c) What are the possible consequences to American safety and international relations resulting from the seizure of "'secret documents andinformation by the North Korean Communists? d) What advantages has the Communist world gained as a result of the failure to destroy the sophisticated intelligence- gathering equipment with which the Pueblo was outfitted? e) By Ms valiant conduct in saving his own life and the lives of all but one of his men, did Commander Bucher nevertheless jeopardize the security of other Americans? 0 In the entire Pueblo fiasco, where does the ultimate responsibility lie? The Navy Court of Inquiry has done little to provide information, let alone satisfactory answers, to any of these questions. Indeed, (there appears to be an active effort under way to "pass the buck" - or to perform a "whitewash" job. Two general groups appear to be forming: Namely, one which praises Commander Bucher for his intrepidity and valor; the other which would condemn him for failure to respect the motto of Commodore Perry -- "Don't give up the ship." U.S. Rep. John B. Anderson (R-ILL.), chairman of the Republican Conference, has urged a congressional inquiry. Other WED. FEB. 2o. 1969 -PLAINDEALER - PG. 13 members of the Congress, both Republicans and Democrats, have made even stronger demands. These actions have been followed by an assurance from the new Secretary of Defense, Melvin R. Laird, that his office will conduct a further investigation. At this time the entire Pueblo picture is most unclear. In fairness to the brave men of the Pueblo, all of whom have experienced imprisonment and hardship, in fairness to the Navy whose reputation is on the line, and in fairness to an incredulous and perplexed American public, a full and thorough investigation with reasonable and honest* answers is indispensable. The United States as a nation has been humiliated in the eyes of the world* Other consequences flowing from the capture of the U.S.S. Pueblo and the loss of millions of dollars of sophisticated intelligencegathering equipment imply other dangers which have not, been explained or experienced tire subject of the U.S.S. Pueblo and the actions (and inaction) and the actions (and inaction) of a blundering Navy need the: fullest possible public exposure. The American public is demanding just that -- and is entitled to nothing less* MILK PROGRAM Walter C. Kirchner, treasurer of Pure Milk Association, Chicago, told the House Agriculture committee in Washington, D.C. that the Special Milk Program for children should be expanded and made permanent to provide better nutrition and health for America's young people and a helpful means of stabilizing the nation's dairy industry. Kirchner said Pure Milk associations, which has 11,000 dairy farmer -members in, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana and in Michigan, supports H.R. 5554, the Special Milk Program bill before the House Agriculture committee, but hopes Congress will authorize sufficient additional funds to allow for the growth in the program.
