PAGE TEN THE I{IICHIGAN DAILY FRIDAY, JANUARY 20, 1967 AMERICAN REPORTER: Bombing Brings Fear, Destruction to Vietnamese STUCK W ITH AN EDITOR'S NOTE: The following story was written Jan. 15 by Bill Baggs, editor of the Miami (Fla) News. Baggs spent eight days early this month in North Viet Nam. By BILL BAGGS Copyright, 1967. The Miami News NAM DINH, North Vietnam (P) viMost of the travelers move during the night in North Vietnam. They wish to avoid the attention of the American bombers, and thus the south of Hanoi, is a nocturnal 'traffic jam. The designation of this road is Highway No. 1, and it is, at its broadest, barely two lanes, and 4t degenerates into what is merely a one-lane road. Often you simply stop in the auto, stalled behind an 'ex-drawn wagon. On other oc- casions, you find yourself in the .middle of an army convoy headed .south. The American bombers have visited this road many times. De- tours are frequent hosts. You come upon a bridge which has been bombed out, the car heaves over the detour of a dirt road, steep and narrow, and you see that as a symbol of the ingenuity of these people, Thetemporary bridge, down river, is made of wooden planks and bamboo. It was built over- night. It is not very handsome, but it gets you across the river. Nam Dinh is the third largest City in North Vietnam. The pop- ulation was more than 90,000 be- fore the bombing started. Now it is pretty much an evacuated city. At least half of the large wooden doors to the homes, huddled close together on narrow streets, are closed and padlocked. We reached Nam Dinh shortly after 7 a.m. No other cars were seen on the streets. A common sight is the bicycle, wheeled along the streets of Nam Dinh. Common also are the wagons, piled with fertilizer for the rice fields, and quite a few walkers and all of them carrying cargo of some na- ture. In Hanoi, you hear that down south, in Nam Dinh, the American bombers come with a steady fre- quency, and that is the reason we traveled here, And what you hear in Hanoi appears to be true. Indeed, the air alert sounded at 8:03 in the morning, and Amer- ican visitors looked down into one of the concrete holes in thez ground which serves as a shelter. At least a foot and a half of water, dirty and cold water, stood in the bottom of the hole, and you decide to take your chances lying flat on the ground instead of low- ering yourself into the wet shelter, This, and another alert later in Police To Arrest Four Cinema Guild Members (continued from Page 1) in New York indicated that the movie has only encountered legal difficulties once-at the Univer- sity of New Mexico several years ago. However, there is currently a gentlemen's agreement in New York state that the film will not be shown there. The film was shown at Brown University last Saturday. "It was interesting, and not so filthy at all," said one student. "I don't care for experimental films that much and was a little bored." F -I the morning, proved false.

And they headed for another target. question the American reporter The Department of Defense has among them. announced that only targets of It is at least a fair statement military value are being bombed that they are unmoved when you in Vietnam. But the people here explain that bombs stray in a in Nam Dinh do not believe the war.
