Hanoi Position Remains Firm in Paris Talks
U.S. officials vow to pressure Hanoi to publicly admit North Vietnamese troops in South Vietnam while North Vietnamese sources insist on refusing Western pressure and sitting out negotiations. Harriman reports North Vietnam fields about 60,000 regulars and 15,000 Viet Cong in the South. Talks recessed until Friday as Thuy gestures toward admission but stops short of a pledge to end all troop movements. In New York a Brooklyn police warehouse party plans to destroy more than 8,000 bottles and 5,000 cans seized in raids on unlicensed taverns.

Wide Search Underway For Missing Submarine
The navy launched an extensive hunt for the nuclear powered submarine Scorpion and its 99 crew as hunter planes and warships combed the gale torn Atlantic. Poor visibility and 50 mile per hour winds hampered aerial efforts while officials declared the sub overdue but not missing. Weather and weather bureau reports noted heavy seas as Cmdr Slattery and the crew remained unaccounted for after the 2100 mile Azores to Norfolk voyage.
