Saigon presses for cease fire in peace plan
Saigon lays emphasis on an early cease fire as a key goal in its peace plan to be presented at the expanded talks in Paris. Deputy Saigon envoy Van An says South Vietnam will demand strong and effective international guarantees. U.S. and North Vietnamese positions complicate four way talks as Hanoi and the NLF resist discussing a cease fire before troop withdrawals. The expanded conference is set to begin in December with Saigon and Washington awaiting possible brief visits and decisions on how to move toward concrete guarantees.

Air Cavalrymen Leapfrog Across Cambodian Border
U.S. Air Cavalry units advanced along the Cambodian frontier in pursuit of enemy troops after heavy fighting near Saigon. In a single battle, 25 enemy soldiers were reported killed as air and artillery bombardment continued. U.S. losses were 26 dead and 54 wounded. South Vietnam reported 10 dead and 20 wounded. The clash marked the heaviest in the area since September, with 15,000 to 20,000 enemy troops believed deployed along the 100-mile border. Negotiations in Paris stalled further as North Vietnam and the NLF spurned the South Vietnamese delegation. In Laos, emergency sessions addressed reports of a 30,000-strong North Vietnamese move toward Attopeu and Saravane to use as transit stations back into the South. Continued.
