New Pacification Effort in Vietnam Faces Expansion
In Saigon a December program to win hearts and minds among Vietnamese villagers failed to reduce Viet Cong activity. About 20 thousand civilians were assigned to fringe areas. 220 workers were killed. Military control shifts the effort to Gen Westmoreland, boosting forces from 442,000 toward 470,000 or 480,000, with reports lobbying for 600,000 or more. US troop needs may rise beyond.
