An ad hoc committe made up mainly of members of PAX has raised money for a full-page advertisement in tomorrow's New York Times in answer to the State Department's White Paper on Vietnam.
The Committee for a Negotiated Settlement in Southeast Asia will run a reprint of the march 3 issue of I.F. Stone's Weekly, as the text of the advertisement.
