Women's Libe To invade Coast Guard
Laos crisis, refugee flows, U S aid and resettlement plans dominate a long report from Vientiane and Chapel Hill. The piece notes U S officials fear dry season moves force more refugees into lowland camps while highland settlements offer arable land but remain unstable under Pathet Lao and North Vietnamese control. It also covers a separate Coast Guard policy debate on using shared bathroom facilities for women crew aboard ships and calls for public comment by February 18.
