Air Force Sees North Vietnam Exploiting Bomb Pause
Air Force officials warn North Vietnam may seize the bombing lull to push a mass supply run southward. They estimate a month without strikes could allow 100000 tons of goods to reach enemy troops, while the Pentagon plans mobilization of up to 60000 reservists and initial orders for 15000. Johnson urges de escalation to spur talks, with Fulbright cautioning a quick response from Hanoi is likely.
