FOR THE RECORD mw Flub-a-dub-dub: Dump Johnson Movement’s supposedly super-secret meeting in Chicago (scheduled for early next month) blown by organizers who sent invites (confidential you under- stand) to over 200 of the faithful. Was to be masterminded by Allard Loewen- stein (CCD—Committee of Concerned Democrats), Joseph E. Rauh (ADA) and Zolton Ferency, Michigan Demo- cratic Party chief. Ferency has since resigned (“{If the
Democratic National Convention] is wired for sound and the sound is ‘Happy Birth- day LBJ,’ then I want out.”) . . . Rauh, warning that “Pentagon rioting will look like a panty-waist pink tea party com- pared with what can develop unless [a substitute] candidate emerges,” suggests as candidates: Eugene McCarthy, Rob- ert F. Kennedy and dark horse, Sen. George McGovern. . . . Look Maga- -zine’s Insider’s Newsletter says Dump Johnson frenzy has reached such pro- portions large segments of Democratic Party would like to see job done— even if it means Ronald Reagan as President.
