Crosby group seeks private ransom for POWs in Vietnam
Beverly Hills, AP. Bing Crosby's brother says a private group called the Prisoners of War Rescue Mission is exploring ransom or prisoner exchanges with North Vietnam for American POWs. An emissary, John Fairfax, met Hanoi officials in Vientiane, Laos, but no offer has been made. The plan envisions cash, or payment to a neutral country like Singapore, if outright release fails. The effort is backed by Crosby's associates and supported by the State Department, though Hanoi is expected to reject.
