Deaths Soar As S. Viet Take Over
South Vietnamese battlefield deaths in the past five months doubled American losses, with 8,301 Vietnamese troops killed and 4,134 U.S. troops killed in 22 weeks after May 10.

Election officials report 3.8 million ballots cast in four hours, with 15 million registered voters. Park, voting with his wife, avoided predicting the outcome, saying results would come after voting ends. The ruling party expects a 70 percent plus approval, while opponents fear ballot stuffing and illegality after a secret vote in an assembly annex.

Lairds Plan Keeps Viet Nam Advisory Force Intact
Defense Secretary Melvin R. Laird signaled that thousands of U S troops may stay in Vietnam to advise and train South Vietnamese forces after combat ends. He described a residual force larger than the Kennedy era 6 000 to 7 000 and discussed it as a possible bargaining point with North Vietnam. The phased pullout of combat troops continues toward a 1971 budget framework.
