FAGS TWO

Viet Play Secondary
Role of Pacification

By PETER ARNETT
SAIGON (--More and more,
the United States takes the lead-
ing role in the war. When U.S.
combat troops move into the Mek-
ong Delta, as now expected, the
war will be American-led through-
outh South Viet Nam. U.S. troops
already have taken the offensive
everywhere else in the country.
The realities of heavy casualties,
high desertions and wavering mo-
rale have crept up on the Viet-.
namese army forged to fight the
Communists.
Pacification Role
The mission of the Vietnamese
has become the essentially sec-
ondary role of pacification. Even
in this field, the pacification rec-
ord of the Vietnamese over the
years is leading Americans to
move in. There are reports that
25 per cent of the U.S. aid money
earmarked for pacification will be
spent by U.S. units next year. This
year they spent only 2 per cent.
The Americans are trying to
achieve in pacification a break-
through similar in scale to their
military successes against the best
North Vietnamese troops this year.
The Vietnamese are not con-
testing this American takeover of
the war. Indeed they are encour-
aging the move into the delta, the
only area still free from foreign
troops.
Vietnamese officials are also re-
portedly encouraging direct Amer-
ican participation in pacification.
Weary from years of bloodshed
that has taken the lives of 50,000
soldiers, including many of the
bravest men and the best' officers,
the Vietnamese army{ has not re-
sponded as much as hoped for
from the morale-building presence
of foreign troops.: These foreign
forces virtually have precluded
military defeat, a possiblity that
was real late in 1964 and early in
1965 when the Viet Cong launched
a series of blows against the Viet-
nemese.
What enemy bullets have failed
to do, internecine political strife

within the military has succeeded
n dong, removng many military
leaders. Not a general left in
autthority is a noted strategist.
The best generals in Viet Nam dis-
covered they fought wars with far
greater expertise than they dab-
bled in politics, and have ended
up either in foregin exile or drum-
med out of the services.
Regional Rivalries
Wounds are still open from re-
gional rivalries that have sent
whole divisions into revolt. U.S.
advisers with key Vietnamese divi-
sions around Saigon have a "coup
watch," wth U.S. officers instruct-
ed to flash a warning to the Amer-
ican high command if any bat-
talion turns up the road toward
Saigon. Vietnamese officers and
battalions are shifted hundreds of
miles away when they are suspect-
ed of scheming.
The Vietnamese military is
hampered by a chain of command
fettered with a confusing array
of responsibilities. A typical opera-
tion in Kien Tuong Province n-
cluded rangers, regional and pop-
uular forces, special forces, na-
tional police and counter-terror-
ism teams. The province chief had
command control, the special
forces ope rational control. From
there the chain of command
sprouted off to the division com-
mander, a special forces team at
Can Tho, the corps commander
and so on. Conflicting orders often
passed back down to the field.
Enterprise is swamped by such
conflicts. Operations are slowed
btcause a field commander would
rather do nothing than risk the ire
of those up the chain. The enemy
can disapper by the time everyone
in the command chain is satisfied
with an order.
This confusion has a direct ef-
fect on provincial governments,
because Viet Nam is administered
by the military. The elected pro-
vincial councils have little say on
how things should be run, and no
authority.

Headache of the
Sesequicentennlial Year ?
Well, for instance, are you
prepared to discuss the famous
"fairy scene" in the all male
Michigan Union Opera of 1923,
with force and authority? Or, are
you ready to carry on a light con-
versation about the student who
burned down old Haven Hall and
why he did it? Are you set with
enough documented examples to
stay up until dawn discussing the
ugliness of the first Michigan
Coed and the relative merits of
oil the ones who followed her?
Are you prepared to listen to
innumerable old grads tell about
the glories of their Sophomore
year?
If you read the GARGOYLE you
will be.

Officials Clash on Status
Of New Recommendations

(Continued from Page 1)
Under Title VI of the Civil
Rights Act federal agencies assist-
ing a program or institution must
investigate to assure no person
shall "be excluded from partici-
pation in, be denied the benefits
of or be subjected to discrimi-
nation" in the program or insti-
tution because of his race.
The University is believed to be
the first university to be investi-
gated for compliance with the act.
The Defense Department inves-
tigated equal opportunity prac-
tices during the summer and re-
turned to Ann Arbor to investi-.
gate University employment prac-
tices in October.
A report on the October visit
has not been completed, nor have
recommendations been made yet.
The University received $16.3 mil-
lion worth of contracts from the
Defense Department and armed
services last year.
In defending the University, Nie-
huss pointed to a number of cur-
rent efforts to increase involve-
ment of Negroes in the school. He
said that nine Negro students from
Tuskegee Institute are enrolled
with the University under an ex-
change program, up three from a
year ago.
The University currently has
eight Negro freshmen in the Law
School and the president of the
1965 Medical School class was a
Negro. Niehuss added that there
are currently 91 Negro freshmen
enrolled under the University's Op-
portunity Awards program, now in
its third year.
Admissions officials estimate
that the University currently has
about 450 Negro students, up 50
from a year ago. Total current
enrollment at the University is 31,-
000. The University is estimated to
have less than 25 Negro faculty
and administrative staff members.
"Sure, we know there is a prob-
lem in this matter," said Regent
trene Murphy yesterday. "Why,
look, we're only 40 miles from De-
troit which is almost half Negro
and the University's Negro en-
rollment is just over 1 per cent.
That's why the Regents have
agreed to try to increase the en-
rollment of Negro undergraduates
at a rate of one per cent a year.
"But you have to realize that

this is a deeply rooted problem,"
she added. "Not long ago I found,
that the University is not getting'
any Negro students from the Pon-
tiac area despite the high number
of Negro residents in the area.
"So I called up the superin-
tendent, and asked him about it.
He said that he had read the
announcement about the Universi-
ty's equal opportunity scholarships
over the public address system.
"So I asked him why we didn't
get any Negro students. 'Well,' he
told me, 'you can lead them down
to the brook, but there's not much
you can do if they don't want
to drink.'
"That's the whole problem.
These Negro kids are convinced
these programs aren't for them.
It's time, someone really made a
concerted effort to get them to
come here."
