MEMORANDUM
THE WHITE HOUSE
Fil
WASHINGTON
January 20, 1966
TO:
Mr. Lee C. White
FROM: Clifford L. Alexander, Jr. Co
The attached appeared in today1s New York Times. It is
certain to stimulate a good deal of reaction. I think it
would be useful if it were possible for Bill Moyers at a
press briefing to give the views of the President on the
Bond case. It would seem that the basic point to be made
is how this action by the Georgia legislature stifles the
precious right to dissent. If there is no Presidential
reaction, we face the interpretation that we support the
action of the Georgia Legislature by our silence.
