U S Offers Reward for Aid to Fliers in Saigon
The U S government offers five taels of gold about 35 000 for assistance to downed American fliers in North Vietnam. Sixteen million leaflets pledging aid were dropped over a 90 mile stretch north of the demilitarized zone. A navy A4 Skyhawk was lost on Friday during a mission, as the base endured a costly Soviet designed rocket attack that killed eight U S service members and wounded many others. The base sustained up to 88 million dollars in damage with runways, barracks, and ammo storage heavily affected.

Washington sources say Congress will raise Social Security benefits before year end though drafting the plan is complex and time consuming. House Ways and Means members expect a late August vote with Senate action to follow, aiming at about a 1.5 percent increase funded by raising the tax base from 6680 to 7808 and Johnson's proposal of higher benefits and tax base.
