Military End To War Eyed Failure of Talks Presents Threat
A U S subcommittee warns that if peace talks in Paris fail, no alternative exists to all-out military action to conclude the war swiftly. It notes the bombing pause aided North Vietnam’s supplies, potentially extending the conflict, and underscores logistical gains for Hanoi if talks collapse. The report also reviews U S commitments abroad, mainly in Latin America and Australasia, with Vietnam supply effects from the pause. A separate note reports another O’Hare crash victim, Bern ie Lee Pappas, 15, among the 28 dead, as a drum corps member injured in the Dec 27 Convair 580 crash.
