(313) 272-8450 U.S. leaders SAIGON (P) - Viet Cong sabo- teurs who sent much of South Vietnam's biggest oil depot up in smoke yesterday forced the gov- ernment to impose more tough measures to conserve already short fuel supplies. The dawn rocket and mortar attack at Nha Be, six miles from Saigon, was the closest to the capital since the cease-fire 10 months ago. Military sources es- timated up to half the country's fuel' reserves burned. FLAMES STILL licked into the sky at nightfall and black clouds from explosions and fires hung over Saigon. The government announced in the wake of the attack that gasoline will be rationed. Gas stations, ordered closed just af- ter the attack to prevent panic buying, will reopen today. But sales are banned on Saturdays and Sundays. The minister of trade and in- dustry, Nguyen Duc Cuong, an- nounced a wide range of other fuel-conservation measures, in- cluding a 35-mile-per-hour high- way speed limit, a 50 per cent cutback in street lighting and a ban on advertising lights. CUONG ALSO ordered an ad- ditional 15 per cent cut in elec- tricity use by government of- fices, adding to a 25 per cent cut decreed earlier. Viet Cong spokesperson in Saigon refused to comment on the attack except to say they had "seen the smoke but have not received any report about it." A U. S. source said the raid, which reporterdly destroyed al- most all the Shell fuel stored at Nha Be, will create immense fuel storage problems in the near fu- ture. Shell is by far the largest fuel supplier to South Vietnam, with 60 per cent of the civilian market. BUT THE source said Caltex and Esso storage facilities at the tank farm were untouched. Lt. Col. Le Trung ien, chief spokesperson for the South Viet- namese military command, said the Nha Be facility stored fuel for civilian use. Other sources said fuel for military use also was stored there. Hien acknowledged the loss would affect the armed forces. But he claimed military re- serves have not yet reached a critical stage adding that the armed forces normally maintain a reserve supply of 30-60 days. SOUTH VIETNAMESE mili- tary sources said the attack marked the first "Phase of what they predicted would be a gener- al offensive by the Viet Cong and their North Vietnamese al- lies during the height of the dry season early next year. U. S. and oil company sources in Saigon said South Vietnamese military fuel supplies no longer are handled by Shell, Caltex and Esso via Singapore refining fa- cilities. Unconfirmed reports indicated military fuel supplies were be- ing shipped directly from the United States. A U. S. military spokesperson declined comment, saying sensitive negotiations were in progress. THE UNITED STATES funds almost all fuel supplies for South Vietnam, civilian and military. 6..
