Diplomatic Push Towards End of Vietnam Bombing
Paris reports indicate a possible compromise to end the North bombing. U S and North Vietnam appear stalemated in Paris talks as Hanoi and Hanoi Radio appeal to world opinion against the United States. U S spokesmen stress the high military cost of halting the bombing and demand a restored buffer zone to block Communist troop movements. Ambassador Harriman links restoring the buffer zone to halting all war acts, while noting North Vietnam has not shown concrete willingness to discuss de escalation beyond propaganda.

Lt Gen William L Rosson notes Allied forces found a quarter of enemy stockpiles inside the 25 mile valley. U S casualties include 139 dead and 662 seriously wounded with 21 helicopters destroyed or damaged. The operation Delaware involved over 15 000 troops and concluded 370 miles northeast of Saigon before the monsoon rains threaten air support.

Senate Nixes Ban on Guns
The Senate rejected proposals to ban interstate mail order sales of rifles and shotguns and to prohibit sales of antitank guns, bazookas, mortars and machine guns to private citizens. The vote was 53 to 29 against mail-order rifle and shotgun bans, with Western and Southern senators counting against Kennedy’s plan. The White House called the setback a blow to law enforcement while a separate provision barred mail-order handgun sales. Voting on other crime control bill sections was expected next.
