'Johnson Appoints Fortas

SNamed as

Vo 0ie Head
Replaces Goldberg,
Defended Gideon
By The Associated Prese
President Lyndon B. Johnson
named Abe Fortas to the Supreme
Court and John Chancellor as the
new head of Voice of America
yesterday.
The 55-year-old Fortas, an as-
sociate of Johnson since new deal
days of the 1930s, will succeed
Arthur J. Goldberg, who left the
high court to replace the late
Adlai E. Stevenson as Ambassador
0 to the United Nations.
Fortas
Johnson announced his first
nomination to the high court at
a news conference two days after
Fortas was quoted as saying he
wanted no government, "from
President on down."
t The President said Fortas had
told him "on numerous occasions
in the last 20 months that he
would not be an applicant or a
candidate, or would not accept
appointment to any office."
"This is as it should be, for in
this instance the job has sought
the man," Johnson said. "Mr. For-
tas agrees that the duty and the
opportunity of service on the high-
est court of this great country is
not a call that .any citizen can
reject."
First Choice
Declaring Fortas "was my first
choice" for the court vacancy-
indicating he had trouble per-
suading him to take even that
appointment-Johnson described
hiM in these words:
"One of this nation's most able
and most respected, and most out-
* standing citizens - a scholar, a
profound thinker, a lawyer of su-
perior ability, and a man of hu-
mane and deeply compassionate
feelings toward his fellowman-a
champion of our liberties."
Several members of the Senate
judiciary committee which will
consider the nomination Aug. 5
predicted he would be confirmed
without any difficulty. The court
is now in recess but Fortas could
be sworn into service without
waiting for the new term to start
Oct. 4.
Jewish
Fortas, a balding man of med-
ium build, will continue the un-
declared custom of a Jew sitting
on the court. The seat he takes,

Court and NBC newsman John Chancellor, left, to be the new head of the Voice of America.

was occupied by three Jews before
him-Justices Goldberg, Felix
Frankfurter and Benjamin N.
Cardozo.
The Supreme Court will be f a-
miliar ground to Fortas, who has
argued many cases there; Although
he is not a criminal lawyer, his
most notable victories there in-
volved criminal decisions, which
he won as court-appointed attorn-
ey.
One was the Monte Durham
case. It established a rule that an
accused is not responsible if his
crime is the product of a mental
disease or defect.
Gideon
The other was the 1963 Earl
Gideon case. It established a rule
that a person accused of a felony
must be provided with a lawyer
whether he can afford one or not.
Fortas will be- serving with a
former superior, Justice William
O. Douglas. After graduating from
Yale Law School in 1933, he was
assistant professor there under
Douglas. He also was assistant
director of the public utilities di-
vision when Douglas later headed
the Securities and Exchange Com-
mission.
One of his first occasions to
help Johnson was in winning a
court fight in 1948 that threatened
Johnson's effort to move from
the House to the Senate seat.
From then on, Fortas performed
chores for Johnson when he be-
came Senate Democratic leader,

Vice President and finally Presi-
dent.
Behind-the-Scenes
But largely, it has been quiet,
behind-the-scenes activity.
He was seen often with Johnson
conferring on the problems facing
the President after Johnson took
over following President John F.
Kennedy's assassination.
When the morals arrests of
White House aid Walter Jenkins
came to light last year it was
Fortas whom Johnson called on to
help handle the problems involved.
Fortas, like Johnson, worked his
way through college. He did so
partly by playing his violin at
parties and dances.
College
He attended Southwestern Col-
lege "in Memphis and then Yale
Law School. He was editor-in-
chief of the Yale Law Journal and
was elected to Phi Beta Kappa.
He began government work in the
legal division of the Agricultural
Adjustment, Administration. His
highest job on the federal payroll
was as Undersecretary of the In-
terior from 1942 to 1946.
He has served on various gov-
ernment committees and is a
director of several corporations.
Chancellor
A Chicago native and 15-year
veteran with the National Broad-
casting Co., Chancellor succeeds
Henry Loomis in the $24,500-a-
year Voice of America post.
Loomis, a physicist and adminis-
trator, left for another government

Governors
Back War
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. (P)-The
National Governors Conference
went on record yesterday, with
two dissenting Republican voices,
endorsing President Johnson's ex-
pansion of U.S. military strength
in South Viet Nam.
GOP governors Romney of
Michigan and Mark O. Hatfield of
Oregon voted "no" on a motion
of Gov. Carl E. Sanders, Georgia
Democrat, to support the Presi-
dent's position, immediately after
Johnson's televised report to the
nation on decisions he has made
in regard to Viet Nam.
The Sanders motion put the
governors on record supporting the
President's position and the prin-
ciples he enunciated at his tele-
vised news conference today.
But there were some Republican
complaints that the President still
had not furnished sufficient de-
tails, as well as expressed hopes
that he will be much more spe-
cific in a scheduled White House
conference with the state execu-
tives today.
Romney complained he had
heard nothing in the President's
television presentation that he
hadn't known before.
Gov. William W. Scranton of
Pennsylvania, a Republican, said
he is sure the great majority of
Americans support the President.
Romney tried to get the con-
ference to postpone action until
after the governors receive a
White House briefing from the
President today.

U.S. Planes
Hlit North
Viet Troops
SAIGON, Viet Nam (P-A half
dozen U.S. Navy pilots shot up an
army unit in North Viet Nam
yesterday to protect a fallen fly-
ing mate until he could be pluck-,
ed to safety by helicopter.
The action, 65 miles north of
the border, was the first announc-
ed aerial strike at North Viet
Nam's troops, though its military
installations have been hit off,
and on for more than five months.
U.S. spokesmen told of the res-
cue operation and some details of
another first, the fighter-bomber
strike Tuesday that pilots said
destroyed one surface-to-air mis-
sile site and damaged another 40
miles northwest of Hanoi.
Offensive
At the same time U.S. and Viet-
namese marines pressed a joint of-
fensive against the Viet Cong in
the Duc An area 60 miles south
of Da Nang. They shot their
slowly eastward from an inland
helicopter landing zone toward the
sea.
The American leathernecks kill-
ed 12 Viet Cong and captured
three wounded before digging in
for the night near Duc An. The
Vietnamese Marines counted five
dead guerrillas. Casualties among
the attackers were officially des-
cribed as light. Though it was
estimated three Viet Cong bat-
talions, perhaps 1,200 men, were
in the area, the enemy seemed
content with a rear guard action.
Drives
Vietnamese troops staged two
drives south of Saigon, one 35
miles away and the other 75 miles
from the capital.
A U.S. spokesman said 29 Viet
Cong were killed and 14 men were
rounded up in one operation and
the other uncovered a weapons
cache that included 20 Russian-
made grenade launchers and 118
boxes of TNT. He said government
casualties were light.
U.S. and Vietnamese planes and
U.S. armed helicopters staged fur-
ther raids on suspected guerrilla
holdings. Forward observers es-
timated the aircraft killed 300
Viet Cong in scattered areas. This
was not confirmed, however, by
body count.
A U.S. spokesman also disclosed
that six planes, in all, were lost
in the raids on North Viet Nam
bases Tuesday.
That matched a figure radio
Hanoi announced at the time.
Subsequently, however, the North
Vietnamese station declared eight
were downed that day.
Missile Sites
The official report here was
that three of the 46 F105 fighter-
bombers involved in the strike
against the missile sites were shot
down by conventional ground fire
and two others crashed after col-
liding near their home base on
the return flight. One pilot was
rescued. The others were pre-
sumed dead or captured.
Another F105 was shot down in
a raid that day against the Cam
Doi barracks, 30 miles west-
northwest of Hanoi. A spokesman
said it was felled by conventional
antiaircraft fire and the pilot was
presumed killed. No parachute was
observed.
Maj. Gen. Gilbert L. Meyers,
deputy commander of the U.S. air
force 2nd air division, told a news
conference that high-altitude mis-
siles may be set up in North Viet
Nam outside the seven known pre-
pared sites. He said there may be
mobile units in many other places.
The missiles presumably can be

WASHINGTON W.) - President
Johnson's decision against any
immediate call-up of reservists
and national guard units to bol-
ster the U.S. commitment in South
Viet Nam apparently was in-
fluenced, in good measure, by the
surprise discovery of mobile sur-
face-to-air missiles in North Viet
Nam.
Before one of these missile in-
stallations shot down an Ameri-
can fighter bomber last weekend,
Johnson seemingly was preparing
to ask Congress to authorize a
mustering of reservists-a step
suggesting a national emergency
-in order to demonstrate U.S.
determination to the Communists.
However, it was understood he
decided the sudden opportunity to

more complex and sophisticated
photo interpretation equipment,
the sources said.
The photos which first showed
evidence of the two sites were
examined in Saigon on July 20.
