It was triggered by reports
reaching the State Department
from the United States embassy
In Vientiane to the effect that
Communist forces were moving
into the provinces Of Sam Neua

were rumors and reports Of
possible thrusts also farther to
the north.
Not So Clear as Korea
The situation, in fact, is not
nearly 50 elearcut in the eyes
Of the top Eisenhower admini-
Stration leaders as were the
situations in Korea when the
Communists struck from the
north in 1850 or In Lebanon
when United States forces in
tervened two years ago.
The difnculty Is in part q
question Of the legality of the
government supported by the
United States and in part the
split between this country and
its principal European allies.
Roughly, this split follows
the lines Of q tough versus q
soft policy with the United
States favoring q tough stand
against Red pressures in Laos
and Britain and France ad-
vocating caution.
The European allies are not
enthusiastic about the Boun
Gum government. They saw
much greater hope for the pre-
vious neutralist regime Of Pre-
mier Souvanna Phouma.
The State Department has
taken the position, however,
that neutralism based on q
coalition of pro-Western and
pro- Communist political ele-
ments will not work because
the Communists would take
over. The State Department
says 1t was Communist and
leftist undertaking which de-
stroyed the Souvanna Phouma
regime and caused the Premier
to fiee In mid-December to
Bangkok.

Wesf's Experts
Study Invasion
Reporfby Laos

fll 70
vrENTIANE, Laos, Dec. 81
(AP) Western military ex-
perts today gave careful study
to the Laotian governments
claim Of an invasion by troops
Of Communist North Wet Nam.
The military men wondered
whether it could be one Of many
sallies across the ill-defined
border.
Radio Hanoi. In the capital
Of neighhoring North Wet Nam,
denied staging any invasion,
first reported in Q comsnunique
by the pro-Western government
of Premier Prince Boun Gum
Friday night.
The communique said i've
Wet Mini (Communist) bait
talions were attacking Nonget
on the border between this
southeast Asian kingdom and
its Communist neighbor.
Two other Wet Mini batta-
lions were reported moving
about 80 miles UP the road
toward Ban Ban. on the way
to the provincial capital Of
Xiengkhouang.
The government also reported
that Q wounded Wet Mimi SOL
dier was captured and brought
to Vientiane.
Foreign Appeal Mentioned
Laos win fight with all the
forces at our disposal against
this foreign aggression" said
the communique. "In case the
aggression does not cease, how
ever, Laos reserves the right to
appeal to friendly countries to
defend the right Of its national
territory"
One Of these friendly coun-
tries presumably would be the
United States, which has sup
ported Laos with $500 million
in military and economic aid
during its six-year fight to wipe
out prot Communist Pathet Lao
rebels supplied from North Wet
Nam.
Soviet aircraft have been
dropping supplies to remnants
Of the prot Communist force
that was driven out of Vien-
tiane In mid-December by
Prince Boun Gums troops af-
ter four months Of civil strife.
Under paratroop Capt. Kong
lie. the leftists have regrouped
about 60 miles north Of Vien-
tiane. The United States has
accused Moscow Of interfering
in the affairs Of Laos. Washing
ton supports Prince Boun oum.
Nonget Is located across the
jungles about $50 miles north
east Of vientiane. Road and
telegraphic connections are
poor.

Ncnget took place in Novem-
Der. when 800 Pathet Lao
troops battled with sosern-
|ment soldiers and militia de-
Tending the mountain village.
The attackers Withdrew into
North Wet Nam.
The latest attack Is isfeported
to have begun on Thursday.
Experts considered they are
definitely an indication Of
danger. But fragmentary In
formation so far is insufficient
to evaluate the full extent of
the threat to Laos or the in
|tention Of the Communists.
Military experts added that
Pit was not clear whether the
battalions involved are all
Pathet Lao. North Wet Namese
or mixed.
Information on the invasion
report was negative In two
neighb6ring Southeast Asian
capitals. The United States
Embassy in Bangkok, Thai
land. said 1t had no word Of a
Communist push A British
diplomatic source In Singapore
said: Our information indi-
Gates these reports should be
discounted"
Desertions Reported
Earlier this month, the
Hanoi radio reported two Wet
Namese battalions had de-
serted to Laos. This broadcast,
unusual for the Communists,
prompted speculation that
Hanoi was planning to plant
its guerrillas and clear itself Of
responsibility in advance. The
United States Embassy In
Bangkok said 1t had heard
nothing Of the "deserters" for
some time.
The Soviet news agency Tass
relayed a more extensive state
ment from the North Wet Nam
ese Foreign Ministry accusing
Prince Boun Gums govern
ment Of trying ito camoufiage
and further expand the inter-
vention Of American imperial
lists and their SEATO allies in
Laos"
(SEATO is the anti
Communist Southeast Asia
Treaty Organization.)
The situation recalled
charges Of a Wet Mini inva-
sion made In April 1859 by the
pro- Western government then
in power in Laos. The govern
ment said the North Wet Nam.
ese were sending troops into
Laos to bolster the Pathet Lao
guerrillas. The charge was
brought before the United Ma
tions. which sent an investigat-
ing team to Laos. The investi-
gators were unable to substan-
tiate the Laotian charges.
A report on the current Com
munist movements was given
to U. N. Secretary General Dag
Hammarskjold in New York by
Sisouk Ma Champassak, Lao
tian delegate to the United Ma
tions. A U. N. source said he
did not ask for u. N. interven-
ton. Sissouk was information
minister under the Laotian re-
gime that made the first in
vasion charge in 1859.
