Venice All Out
For Elizabeth II

VENICE, Italy, May 6 (AP). -
Queen Elizabeth II toured the
sights Of Venice today while
thousands of Italians and tour
lists crowded around the great
square of st. Mark for a look
at the visiting British Monarch
and her husband Prince Philip.
The city did its best to make
the Queens stay one of the
colorful episodes of her 11-day
Italian tour.
Red and blue gondolas with
gilt trimmings escorted her
launch to the St. Mark land
ing from the royal yacht Bri-
tannia. Medieval banners hung
from windows.
In less than two hours the
Queen and Philip did what
some tourists spend days doing.
They took an elevator to the
top OF the 10-story Bell Tower
in the square, visited the 11th
century Byzantine basilica of
st. Mark, toured the 500-year-
old Doges' palace, went for a
ride on the canals in an open
motor launch and got in some
window shopping.

salutary result. It frightened
governments elsewhere in Latir
America and alerted them tt
the dangers Of the Communist
bastion in the hemisphere.
The United States stood ur
determinedly to Communist
threats a number of times ir
the past: In Berlin just II
years ago with the airlift; in
Greece and Turkey with the
Truman Doctrine; in Korea
and more recently in Lebanon
when American forces were or
dered into the midst Of dan
gerous Middle East crisis.
Washington is fairly sure Mr.
Khrushchev knows when the
United States is bluffing and
when it is not. The United
States obviously was bluffing
in Laos, talking about military
Intervention with no intention
Of carrying it out. But Lebanon
had not looked like a bluff to
Mr.. KhruShchev.
Closing Of Ranks Due
The idea now is to convince
Mr.. KhruShchev that when the
next stand is made-after Laos
is gone-the United States def
initely will not be bluffing. To
assure him Of this, there likely
will be a closing of political
ranks at the highest levels on
the pursuit of United States
aims in the world.
The Laos situation will sim
mer down for a while. This
means there will be noise over
Berlin once again. The Com
munist side will need time to
complete its development of
Laos and to prepare its assault
on South Wet Nam, and while
much Moscow noise is expected
on the Berlin issue, it will be
largely diversionary while the
Communist world prepares its
next steps.
The Soviet Union can be ex-
pected once again to raise its
demand that the Western allies
leave West Berlin and permit
it to become what the Russians
say would be a free interna-
tional CITY," That will be re-
sisted, as will a companion
Communist demand for a 10
year treaty between Communist
East and Federal West Ger

The United States also will
do all in its power to rally its
allies into a common, deter
mined front against Communist
maneuvers.

The other side of the coin is

The bulk and heaviest por-

though other elements are on
watch elsewhere along the
Asian coast, from the area of
Japan southwark through the
China Sea and South Atlantic.
The fleet usually is organized

three attack carrier groups. An
attack carrier usually forms
the core for a task group. &C
companied by destroyers. Ordi-
narily, the carrier has between
so and 80 planes aboard.
The Air Force has medium
and light bomber forces in the
Far East. But to operate jet
fighter-bombers in support of

would have to use the single
airdrome in Wet Nam capable
of handling jets, located a few

Political problems arise, also.
The French Army was most
successful against the Algerian
rebels when it adopted para
military tactics used against
France by Communists in Indo-
China. In Algeria this involved
political action carried out by
cooperating civilians and army
officers. The civilians and the
soldiers got impatient with the
homeland, however. and con-
tinued their operations against
the established government.
They toppled the Fourth Re
public and then tried twice to
overthrow the man they rut
in power, Gen. de Gaulle. Most

experts are now in custody or
