Voice from television: Good evening. Today the candidates for President held a joint news conference to make an urgent appeal for national discord. Judy Woodruff has details. They call it "disunity day." Led by Governor John Connally, the major candidates officially called off their self-imposed ban on criticizing President Carter's foreign policy.

The call for disunity is expected to receive bipartisan support.
