Western powers set for Laos ceasefire conference
In Geneva the Big Three Western powers prepare to sit at the Laos conference after word from London that organized fighting has ceased. U.S. Secretary of State Rusk and envoy Harriman are in Geneva with Soviet Foreign Minister Gromyko. Chen Yi and British and French ministers are en route. Government officials warn fighting lines remain unstable and verification may take days. Phoumi Nosavan says pro Communist artillery still harasses government positions, delaying Laos delegation's travel until ceasefire is certified. Harriman predicts official news soon as Gromyko attends the talks.
