Wet Mini Cuts
Across Laos
To Thai Border
Bangkok ProcIoims
State Of Emergency.
Orders Up Artillery
BY the Assoeiafed Press

SAIGON, Indo-China, Dec.
26.-The Communicated Wet
Mini today completed a bold
drive intended to cut Indo-
China in two at its narrow waist.
Rebel battalions which struck
westward Tuesday from the
AMMAN coast of Wet Nam
moved into Thakhek, a Laotian
town on the Mekong River
bordering Thailand.
The French among Thakhek'S
10000 population had been
ordered out by the French High
Command and told to seek haven
southwark. The High Command
ordered the evacuation to free as
many garrison troops as possible
for field duty to meet the in
vasion of Laos-one of the three
French-associated states of Indo-
China.
Capture of Thakhek gives the
Communists a base on the Thai
land frontier and a choice of
striking northward toward the
Laotian city of Vientiane. 144
miles away, or southwark
toward strategic Savannakhet,
So miles away, used by the
French as an air base.
Thakhek lies just across the
Mekong from the strategic Thai
town of Nakhon Phanom.
Thailand Orders Emergency.
CA dispatch from Bangkok
said Thailand has ordered a
state of emergency in nine of
her northern and northeastern
states adjoining Indo-C China
and Burma as result of the
Red offensive, which govern
ment leaders view as a threat
to Thailand's sovereignty. Maj.
Gen. Momluang Kharb Kun
chorn, deputy chief of the
Thai General Staff, said a de-
Tense plan is readied and heavy
artillery has moved up to the
Mekong. Reports in Bangkok
said French forces were falling
back to new defenses set up
about 80 miles from Thakhek.)
: Prince Souvanne Phouma,
premier of Laos, appealed to the
free world for aid. labelling the
invasion one more proof of what
he called Wet Mimi imperialism.
Gen. Henri Navarro, French
commander in chief in Indo-
China, denied the invasion of
Laos had caught the French by
surprise. The high command
showed its concern, however, by
naming Brig. Gen. Andre Fran
Chi as commander of the Mekong
sector, making him responsible
directly to Gen. Navarro.
Some See Surprise.
Some French sources con-
tended the invasion did catch
the high command off guard.
They said the French had ex-
pected some kind of rebel action
in the area, but not a major Of

Two Divisions
To Come Home
From Korea
Eisenhower Orders
Troop Strength Cut
But Warns Reds
By John A. Giles

President Eisenhower yester-
day ordered a progressive reduc-
ton Of United States ground
forces in Korea beginning with
the withdrawal Of two Army
divisions soon "as an initial
STEP" He warned at the same
time that any new aggression
there would be opposed with
even greater effect than hereto
fore"
The Chief Executive, in an
announcement at Augusta. Ca,

where he, is vacationing, did not
indicate which of the six Army
divisions now in Korea-the I'd,
Sd, 7th, 25th, 10th and 45th-are
to be brought home.
At the Pentagon, an Army
spokesman said the decision had
not yet been made. He added
that choice of the divisions to
be returned probably would be
made by the Far East Command
with department approval. There
are approximately 1880 officers
and men in an Army division.
Gen. Eisenhower, pointing out
that the fighting in Korea had
ceased five months ago, added
I'VE do not need as much ground
strength there as when there is
fighting"
South Koreans Stronger.
He said this was more true
because of the capabilities Of the
Republic of Korea forces which
were substantially built up during
the war"
Gen. Eisenhower. after a post
election trip to the Korean war
zone a year ago. listed the train
ing and equipping of additional
South Korea units as one of his
key points for improving the
stalemated situation on the war
torn peninsula. That program
was stepped up considerably in
the last days of the old Truman
administration and has contin-
ued during the armistice period.
Equipment has continued to
be shipped to Korea, though in
smaller quantities than during
the period of fighting. An Army
general here said the divisions to
be withdrawn probably would
leave their equipment for the
South Koreans.
Air Power Stepped Up.
Another reason for Withdraw
ing ground troops, the President
declared, is that "our growing
national air power possesses
greater mobility and greater
striking force than ever before. !"
An Air Force spokesman said
Gen. Eisenhower apparently was
referring to the fact that it is
now possible to fly fighter planes.
capable of carrying small atomic
bombs. directly from this country
to Japan. During the war it was
necessary to ship such craft
either by aircraft carrier or cargo
ship. Two F-86G wings already
have made the trip with the aid
of newly developed refueling
techniqueS. The spokesman said
such wings could be operational
in Japan four days after they
had been alerted for movement
at bases in the United States.
The President did not say how
soon the divisions would be
brought home. But an Army
general said the movement would
have to begin real soon,
especially in view Of the person.

Ground Strength Cut.
The Army is to be reduced
from its present strength of
slightly less than is million to
around IL million. Some gen.
erals, in strongly protesting the
cuts, had maintained that at
least two divisions would have
to be withdrawn.
Gen. Eisenhower in his state
ment did not in any way relate
the manpower cuts to his plan
for reducing ground forces in
Korea.
He emphasized that ''the &C
