WASHINGTON (AP)-Sen. Rob-
ert F. Kennedy (D-NY) urged
President Johnson yesterday to in-
vite Viet Nam negotiations on the
basis of accepting some Commun-
ists in a coalition Saigon govern-
ment.
Meanwhile, helicopters poured
thodiands of U.S. Marines into

Cong tin the Phuoc Valley, 350
miles ndi'theast of Saigon. Striking

Calling for limited use of U.S.
miliiary. power, Kennedy said any
effort to destroy the "objectives
and forces" of North Viet Nam
probably would result in massive
Chinese intervention in the war.
Expgssed Reservation
Kennedy expressed some reser-
vations about the course Johnson
is pursuing. He said, for example,
that he, has such reservations
about the resumption of the bomb-
ing of North Viet Nam because he
is unsure of its limitations and
objectives.
The c-monmittee wound up its
public sessions Friday with an in-
vitation from Secretary of State
Dean Ryusk to Congress to vote on
Viet Narn policy "if there is any
doubt" about it. Chairman J. W.
Fulbright (D-Ark) said he sees no
need for further public hearings.
The committee is to decide at a
meeting tomorrow whether to ask
Secretary of Defense Robert S.
McNamara and Vice President
Hubert H. Humphrey to appear at
closed session. Both have declined
to testify publicly.
Focus on Bill
The major focus of the policy
dispute shifts to the Senate floor
tomorrow in consideration of a
$4.8 billion Viet Nam military
authorization bill.
Kennedy said that in the un-
conditional discussions the Presi-
dent has expressed willingness to
undertake, both sides would bring
at least ong ireducible demand.
For the United States "it must
be that We will xiot turn South
Viet Narn over to the North," he
said.
"tior North Viet Nam it must be
thatliey will not. accept a settle-
meat~ *hich leaves in the South a
hostile government, dedicated to
the fipal physical destruction of
all Communist elements, refusing
any conomic" cooperation with
the,,North, dependent upon the
continued Presence of Afnerican
military power."
Kennedy said of the Viet Cong
and its political arm, the National
Liberatiog Front:
"There are three things you can
do with such groups: kill or re-
pressthem, turn the country over
to themi, pr admit them to a share
of pqwer and responsibility.
"The last is at the heart of the
hope for -a pegotiated settlement.
It is not the easy way or the sure
way; nor can the manner or the
degree of participation now., be
described with any precision. It,
will require enormous skill andy
political wisdoi to find the point
at whih participation does not
bring :dorination or internal con-
quest.

Wilson is due here tomorrow for
his first visit to the Soviet capital
singe he became prime minister in
October 1964. He will meet with
Premier Alexei N. Kosgyin and
other Soviet leaders during his
three-day stay.
Izvestia said London is appar-
ently giving top priority to "jus-
tifying the aggressive actions and
intentions of the United States
and West Germany -- no matter
how dangerous this may be for the
cause of peace."
The paper warned Wilson that
his support of U.S. actions in Viet
Nam could not be isolated and
ignored. It said this "has, poisoned
to a considerable extent British-
Soviet relations."
Izvestia threw out veiled taunts
about alleged lack of British in-
dependence in foreign. policy and
loss of influence in Western coun-
cils. It also reminded Wilson that
he and his party had taken a less
pro-American line before they
came to power.
It indicated that the Soviet lead-
ers will bend their efforts during
Wilson's visit to get him to make
a "more sober estimation of the
dangerous consequences of the es-
calation of the war in Asia by
American militarists and the re-
venge-seeking demands of Bonn."I
trying to do too much with too
little and could end up tied to
American policy as merely "auxil-
iaries rather than allies." He de-
scribed government defense policy
decisions as "dangerously mis-
taken."
This was the public climax to a
secret struggle under way between
the admirals, the air marshals and
the politicians in preparing a gov-
ernment white paper outlining
British military strategy through
1970. It is to be published Tuesday.
Defense Secretary Denis Healey
is resolved to cut back by one-
third, to an annual defense budget
of two billion pounds ($5.6 bil-
lion) by 1970 and to reform Brit-
ish military strategy in the pro-
cess.
The dispute lay between buying
F111A long-range nuclear fighter-
bombers from the United States
or building a new aircraft carrier
for about $196 million. The navy
appears to havelost. The British
military presence east of Suez now
is expected to be reinforced by
stationing F11s on a chain of In-
dian Ocean island bases instead of
dispatching a more mobile, but
sinkable, carrier force.
But Mayhew cited a much
broader issue in an interview an-
nouncing his resignation. He said
