Bridges Outside of Hanoi

Peace Issue By The Associated Press
MONTGOMERY, Ala. - Atty.

SAIGON (P)-United States air
raids struck closer to Hanoi than
r ever before yesterday. U.S. Navy
planes wrecked a bridge 65 miles
south of the North Vietnamese
capital and chased away three
Communist MIG jets that for the
first time offered a challenge.
While 60 planes from the car-
riers Coral Sea and Hancock were
attacking the bridge, 50 U.S. Air
Force F100 and F105s were dam-
aging another span 15 miles to the
south.
The twin strikes brought the
conflict ever closer to Hanoi. The
closest approach previously was
an air raid March 15 on Phy Qui,
100 miles south of Hanoi.
Never before had Communist
fighter planes challenged U.S. air-
craft and this was -not much of
a challenge. The Navy said the
MIGs made a pass at one U.S.
Navy plane but made off into the
haze before American fighters
could get into firing position with
Sidewinder missiles.
Both bridges were on Route 1,
the highway leading southward
from Communist China's frontier
through North Viet Nam along the
coast and on into South Viet Nam
to Saigon.
This is a major supply artery for
North Viet Nam but now Route 1
is severed.
During the morning, 30 U.S.
planes attacked the 500-foot rail-
road and highway bridge over the
Nam Ma River at Dong Phuong.
'Pilots reported moderate damage
but complained they could not see
well in the haze.

BERLIN 0) - West Berlin's
Christian Democratic party called
last night for economic sanctions
against East Germany in retalia-
tion for Communist harassments
on the Autobahn connecting the
city with West Germany.
For the third straight day, East
German police halted West Ger-
mans headed into Berlin on the
highway and kept them waiting
for hours while checking docu-
ments, apparently in search of
deputies heading for next Wednes-
day's session of the West German
parliament.
Warning
East Germany had warned the
western allies yesterday interna-
tional conflicts could erupt if the
West German Parliament is al-
lowed, to hold a session in West
Berlin.
However, the Christian Demo-
crats in West Berlin said in a
statement the harassment was a
"serious interference with the
right of free access to Berlin" and
must be answered with counter-
measures in connection with the
1960 trade agreement between East
and West Germany.
When the so-called interzonal
'trade agreement was reached,
West Germany reserved the right
to cancel it in case of interference
with traffic on the, Autobahn.
* Cancellation
Cancellation of the agreement
would be a serious blow to the
East Germans, whose industry is
greatly dependent upon West Ger-
man steel and chemicals. Inter-
zonal trade amounts to 10 per
cent of East Germany's foreign
trade while it represents barely
1. per cent of West Germany's ex-
ports and imports.
The East Germans maintain the
West German Parliament has no
business in West Berlin, claiming
West Berlin is not part of West
Germany but is situated on East
German territory. West Germany
says Berlin is still part of Ger-

many.
The parliament meeting will be
the first here since 1958. The
western allies, because of Soviet
threats, have not permitted meet-
ings here since then.

It was during this operation
that the MIGs appeared. There
was speculation that they hap-
pened to be in the air and had not
been scrambled to meet the attack.
Yesterday afternoon, 30 Al
Skyraiders and A4 jet attack
planes returned to the attack on
the bridge, dropping 60 tons of 500
and 1,000 pound bombs.
While Route 1 was taking its
pounding in the north, the South
Vietnamese army began an opera-
tion to clear the route in South
Viet Nam.
About 1,350 men and artillery
units in a big airborne operation
were dropped about -290 miles
north of Saigon in Binh Dinh
province, where Communist guer-
rillas several months ago scored
outstanding success.
First reports said the Viet Cong
guerrillas were pulling out of hard
won positions without offering
much of a fight and 10 miles of
the road was cleared.
In the Navy operation, Lt. Cmdr.
Joe Schneiders, fyling flak sup-
pression, said his job was to watch
for "any horrible belches of orange
flame" and to blast them on the
Navy mission in the north.
Schneiders, skipper of fighting
squadron 151, said there was

heavy ground fire but no sign of
heavy antiaircraft weapons or an-
tiaircraft missiles.
In addition to the ground action
far to the north of Saigon, an-
other big operation was in prog-
ress in the sugar cane fields and
swamps 20 miles west of Saigon.
Fighter-bombers dumped tons
of napalm fire bombs on a Com-
munist stronghold there. A bat-
talion of government rangers
drove into the smoldering cane
looking for Viet Cong. Reports
said they lost 5 dead and 12
wounded.
The rangers were trying to pin
down the Viet Cong on the banks
of the Vaico Oriental River, de-
scribed as a lair for the guerrillas
seasoned 506th unit.
And in Washington, Sen. Jacob
K. Javits (R-NY) said yesterday
Congress should approve the dis-
patch of any division-sized U.S.
combat forces to South Viet Nam.
Sen. Joseph S. Clark (D-Pa)
expressed belief "we've gone about
to the outer limit" in military
action against the Communist
guerrillas in the little Southeast
Asian nation. He added he wants
"wiggle room" left for negotia-
tions to avoid a major war.

THURMONT, Md. () - Presi-
dent Lyndon B. Johnson met
briefly with Canada's Prime Min-
ister Lester B. Pearson in appar-
ent amity yesterday but gave no
sign he shares Pearson's view that
a pause in air strikes against
North Viet Nam might mark a
first stephtoward peace.
At Johnson's invitation, Pear-
son visited the President for a
couple of hours at the Camp David
presidential retreat.
Meeting newsmen before they
parted neither man volunteered
anything about their joint discus-
sion of Pearson's suggestion, put
forward Friday night, for a tem-
porary moratorium on American
air strikes north of the 17th
parallel.
And at the United Nations, Sec-
retary-General U Thant was re-
ported appreciative yesterday of a
suggestion by Pearson that he go
to China and Southeast Asia to
set up a U.N. conference on re-
gional economic development.
A spokesman for the secretary-
general told reporters:
"He appreciates the initiative.
For now, he has no indication of
the reaction of the different par-
ties concerned. He will follow it
very closely."

Gen. Richmond Flowers of Ala-
bama said yesterday his state
apparently stands alone in a hope-
less defiance of racial change and
must face up to the segregation's
legal demise.
"Segregation as we know it is
gone," said Flowers in an inter-
view. "Somehow, some way we
have got to face it and adjust to
it."
Flowers, who has pushed for
racial moderation in opposition to
Gov. George C. Wallace for two
years, said Mississippi and Louisi-
ana were profiting "from Ala-
bama's mistakes-Alabama ap-
parently stands alone in this help-
less defiance."
Political Difficulties
Flowers' political difficulties
with Wallace began on the day
both men werebsworn into office.
The incoming attorney general, at
his own brief inaugural ceremony,
disagreed with the new governor's
announced intent to defy any
federal court integration order.
(Wallace has since said he has
never actually defied the courts.)
About 100 persons, including
white clergymen, demonstrated to-
day at Marion, about 80 miles west
of Montgomery. Most of the dem-
onstrators were Negroes. They
stood in front of a church facing
the county courthouse and sang.
Ten pickets walked through the
downtown area with signs em-
phasizing the Negro voter drive.
The drive gets new impetus Mon-
day when boards of registrars open
for the first of two days this
month.
Economic Boycott
Plans for a three-stage eco-
nomic boycott of Alabama brought
more criticism. Roy Wilkins, E:ce-
cutive Director of the NAACP,
said in Nashville, Tenn., that the
boycott "is a two-edged sword that
must be handled with great care."
The Alabama Boycott was an-
nounced by Rev. Martin Luther
King Jr. after a meeting in Bal-
timore of the Executive Board
of his Southern Christian Leader-
ship Conference,

Wilkins appeared on a Vander-
bilt University symposium, the
Alabama governor also took part.
Wilkins told newsmen who asked
about Rev. King's plan to begin
action in northern cities that "the
problems of Alabama haven't been
solved yet. I believe."
He declared it "won't be any
half-way house to freedom, for
we are going to enact a law that
will put the federal government
in position to ensure the right to
vote to everyone, wherever he
lives and whatever his color."
Humphrey spoke by telephone
from his weekend retreat in worth
Carolina to the annual conven-
tion of Americans for Democratic
Action.
Oppose Resolution
At the annual Convention of
Americans for Democratic Action
a resolution was adopted that op-
posed the announced investigation
of the Ku Klux Klan by the
House Committee on Unamerican
Activities. ADA said necessary in-
vestigations should be conducted
by regular congressional commit-
tees.
