Lodge Walks Out Of Paris Vietnam Peace Talks
U S Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge abruptly left the 39th Paris session citing a negative attitude by Communist negotiators. State Department spokesman John McCloskey said the action does not end the talks. In Saigon, US forces clashed with Communist troops in eight hours of fighting near Cambodia as 50 enemy deaths were recorded. Casualties for the week showed 78 Americans killed and 684 wounded, with 301 South Vietnamese killed and 878 wounded. An explosion on the Canadian destroyer escort Kootenay near Plymouth caused eight deaths and nine injuries. Prime Minister Wilson moves to broaden Britain's drug crackdown with a new bill to be announced in Parliament. In Jerusalem, Meir convened Dayan and others to discuss retaliation after Arab bomb attacks on Haifa buildings.
