Won't Go and Look
A spokesman said one Sc

still had no plans to fly north
and investigate rebel activities
on the spot.
The government disclosed
yesterday without explanation
that 1t avoided accusing Com
munist North Wet Nam Of ag-
gression in documents laid be-
fore U. N. fact finders.
Instead. an announcement
said, a 20-page document sim
ply charged a foreign state
with fomenting internal dis
orders in Laos and threatening
its sovereignty. A spokesman
declined to make an explana-
ton.
(There were indications
Laos may be shifting its
charge to Communist China.
In the United Nations, Laos
accused Red China yester-
day of masterminding rebel
operations.)
The government had accused
North Wet Nam of backing
Communist rebels in Sam Neua
and Phong Sally provinces and
asked the U. N. for armed help.
The charge sent the four-na-
ton subcommittee from the
U. N. Security Council to Laos.

receive issued to the Laotian
committee. which prepared the
documents for the U. N. sub
committee. merely accused
North Wet Nam Of making
false charges against Laos.
The directive did not cite the
North Wet Namese in connec-

subversion within Laos, the
government added.
A U. N. spokesman said the
subcommittee is studying the
documents sentence by SEN
tence" while it waits for Laos
to corroborate the charges.
Laotian Information Chief
Sisouk ma Champassack said
the corroborating evidence will
include captured military or
