Harvard SDS to Join D.C. Vietnam Protest

Representatives of the Harvard chapter of the Students for a Democratic Society predicted last night that 300 Harvard students will join the SDS "March on Washington to End the War in Vietnam."

"We will picket the White House and march up the Mall to present a petition to Congress," David M. Kotz '65, organizer of the Boston marchers, said.

Senator Ernest Gruening '07 (D-Alaska) and journalist I.F. Stone will address the demonstrators at a rally near the Washington Monument.

Kotz estimated that 8000 sympathizers will join the march to protest the United States' role in "holding up a repressive, dictatorial, backward government in South Vietnam."

The march will be held on April 17.
