The tiny government Of
Laos has been making ex-

elections are scheduled 10 be
held. A new Premier had
forced Communists out Of the
cabinet. The economy had
begun to improve as Ameri-
can advice and financial aid
were given. Consequently. the
government was gaining new
followers as trained army
teams provided health and
sanitation facilities, rural
schools and new roads.
These measures were bring
ing about q stable situation
In Laos. The policy was to
be one Of ofiicial neutrality

West. but II has been obvi-
Gus that the people Of Laos
have been leaning toward the

All this Is happening at q
time when many Americans
aren't reading much about
Laos but are worrying about
how to show Khrushchey q

there. Yet officials Of the
Soviet Union are well aware
that the United States has no
bases or any organized mill
tary missions In that country.
The fighting In the little
Buddhist kingdom Of Laos
has been carried on BY an
3 estimated 1000 Red guerrillas
who are attacking govern
ment troops at outpost points.
The invading forces come
across the border from COM
munist North Vietnain and
are regularly supplied from
there and from Red China.
Significantly. the Moscow Of
fetal organ, Izvestia. has
served notice that hostilities
fare apt to grow into pro-
tracted bloodlettins and they
may spread beyond Laos, en-
gulfing q whole line Of South
east Asia countries"
All this began happening
just after Nikita Khrushchev
conducted personal CONVERSE
tions recently with Ho Chi
Mimi, the Communist premier
Of North vietnam.
Both the Laotian provinces
which now have been in
vaded from North vietnam
were held by the Communist
forces before the 1854 truce
conference at Geneva. which
this writer covered at the
time. It was not until three
years later that the Conn
munists actually turned over
control Of the disputed prov
inces. Now 1t looks as II the
Reds want to take them back.
Many people may have for
gotten the 1854 conference
that ended the bloody war In
Indo-C China. in which the
French made such big sacri.
fices to defend their protec-
torate. They finally agreed to
release their former colonies
from any jurisdiction BY the
French government. But SOL
enli agreements were entered
into then by the Communists,
which now have been broken.

Control Opposed
He added that another goal
is to provoke a return Of the In
ternational Control Commission
to restore order. Laos opposes
any move by the international
Control Commission Of India,
Canada and Poland to return to
Laotian soil. The commission
was set, up under the 1854 ar
mistice that ended the fighting
In Indo- China.
The communique said that
two Communist battalions are
now within Sam Neua Province
and a Red regiment is along the
North Vietnamese border.
Other military reports from
the north said the rebels now
occupy one-fifth of Sam Neua
Province and that the govern
ment is losing men daily In
small skirmishes.
The colnmunique mentioned
only one skirmish. That was

US. Hits Red
LaosCharges
b. ths AssocIated Pres.

The United States yesterday
hit back at a Soviet accusation
Of United States Intervention in
Laos, suggesting that the Rus
sian charge shows completely
by Moscow itself in Laos strife.
In denying accusations in q
Soviet foreign ministry state
ment August H., the State De-
partment said:
mo American personnel are
commanding. advising or serv-
ing with Laos units. No Arneri-
can personnel are directing
military operations.
I'VE have no troops in Laos.
We do not have in Laos nor
have we provided that country
any heavy or modern equip
ment.
ave have no bases in Laos
nor airstrips. as any Of the
dozen foreign correspondents
In Laos will attest"
United States authorities
have said about 100 Americans
are in Laos as non-uniformed
clerical and fiscal personnel
and as technicial1s to train the
Laos army. They stress that
these Americans are in the
country at the invitation Of
the Laos government.
The United States reply said
the Soviet statement. "distorts
the facts regarding recent
events in Laos and suggests
Soviet completely in the Com
munist interference in Laos
internal affairs"

Washington earlier by COM

fighting in the border areas Of

Evidence Is accommodating
that Nikita Khrushchev was
double-crossing President
Eisenhower all the time that
the Chief Executive was dis
cussins with him, through
diplomatic channels, the pos
sihiiity Of inviting the Soviet
Premier to visit the United
States Is o means Of relieve
ing international tensions.
For the critical situation
that has arisen In Laos Is
the direct result Of the Soviet
governments decision dur
ing the last few weeks to In
tefsify the cold war In the
Southeast Asian peninsula.
Also the Chinese Commu-
nists, who act only after coll
lahoration between Peiping
and Moscow, have begun an
invasion Of Ladak - one Of
the states which is an inte-
grail part Of the territory Of
India. It Is on the border Of
Tibet.
This is an odd way to try
to relieve tensions. In fact.
there Is every indication that,
50 far as the Moscow govern
nnent Is concerned. there has
been Q stepping up Of the
tempo Of the cold war In Asia.
Thus, the Red Chinese are
making hostile moves In the
direction Of Nepal - an in
dependent republic - which
lies on the border between
India and Tibet. Latest maps
from Peiping not only show
Nepal'as Q part Of Red China
but they include within Com
munist jurisdiction the north
ern state Of Ladak in India
itself.
This brazen aggression has
attracted the attention Of
free governments throughout
the world hut not that Of the
free peoples, so many OF
whom are busily engaged now
in discussions Of how Nikita
Khrushchev should be enter
tanned on his visit to the
United States,
The Soviet government. Of
course, has been sending out
propaganda denying its ma
neuvers in Laos and other
areas. Indeed. the Moscow

amazing claim now that the
United States has violated

Of appearing to feel that the

This has been brought
home to him In anxious con-

down to the border Of South

today.
Government forces braced
for what they feared would be
an, all-out offensive.
A general staff cornmunique
said the Communists have used
the quiet Of the past two weeks
to reinforce troops and re-
supply isolated units.
Nov that preparations have
ended. the enemy probably will

the communique said.
Actions Reported
The communique added that
enemy action had been reported
from Sam Neua, Phong Sally,
TSaravane. Savannakhet, Takhet
and xiengkhouarlg provinces.
SaraVane borders on South Wet
Nam. as does part Of Savanna
khet. No skirmishes have been
reported IN these southern prov
inces.,
A defense ministry spokes-
man said the Communist move
ment was aimed at spreading
government forces thin so the
rebels could concentrate on re-
taking Of Sam Neua and Phong
SAY provinces, formerly con-
Uolled BY the Red Pathet Lao.
