USAF officials say war to continue for years
Washington AP reports high Air Force officials believe North Vietnam still imports large amounts of petroleum and war materiel despite bombing. They estimate 25 to 50 percent of pre bombing levels arrive, sustaining Hanoi's war effort. If talks fail, bombing could continue three or more years. They note pipelines from China and sea shipments bypassing mines. Three options for Hanoi include withdrawal, protracted attack, or pushing toward a settlement before the U.S. election.
