EUGENE PAYNE, Charlotte Observer
Imagining Vietnam as a trap for President Johnson, Eugene Payne posed Johnson in formal dress, imploring Pacific allies for assistance. On October 24, 1966, the Manila Peace Conference opened, and Johnson pledged peace, conditional upon the withdrawal of North Vietnamese forces from South Vietnam. Payne served as one of the editorial cartoonists of the Charlotte Observer in his native city for the better part of the years between 1958 and 2009. |
