Missouri Pacific trains block Hope with long pickups
In a letter from Missouri Pacific Arkansas Division Superintendent Kerlee, trains causing blockages in Hope are discussed. He notes pickups and setouts for Hope products and other items create delays, but crews are addressing the issue and Missouri Pacific will reduce incidents as much as possible. Only one underpass exists at Hervey Street, and the yard needs doubletracking to help.

Peace pact signing delayed despite progress
In Washington Vice President Agnew said the United States will not be ready to sign a Vietnam peace agreement by Tuesday but expects a deal in due course. Paris Viet Cong leaders warned they will continue fighting unless Thieu is compelled to accept the U S North Vietnamese accord. Mrs Nguyen Thi Binh accused Kissinger and Le Duc Tho of bad faith as talks stall. Tran Van Lam said South Vietnam will not sign until North Vietnam withdraws troops and the National Council of Reconciliation is defined. The tentative pact calls for North Vietnamese withdrawal but does not require immediate troop pullout. U S forces would depart within six days of signing. Continued on next page.
