Belgian Strike

strikes, and the government
predicted q return to almost

But it was an uneasy

The only strike rally sched-

that was Cancelled because q

Western Prince Boun Gum was
just Q trick"
It added:

The United States, in q brief
white paper" on the Laotian
crisis, charged yesterday that
the Soviet Union has been ex-
panding its airlift to the leftist
and pro Communist rebels
fighting the Boun Oum Govern
ment. But the statement also
further opened the door to
maneuvers aimed at q peaceful
solution.
3 Avenues Seen
The document, released by
the State Department said
there are three ways the United
States can contribute to q So
luton Of the Laotian problem.
One way, it said. is ''by join
ing with other free nations to
support and maintain the in
dependence of Laos through
whatever measures seem most
promising"
The other two points Of cur
rent United States policy, the
statement said. are to tell the
world "the true nature Of Com
munist intentions and actions
in Laos" and to show that the
United States itself. does not
seek to make Laos q Western
military ally.
In effect. the statement
pledged strong and continuing
United States support for q
Laos free Of Communist con-
troll. It called for q peaceful So
luton Of the crisis-with = at
least an implication Of willing
ness to accept full Laotian neu-
trality.

viving the commission. COM
prised Of India, Poland and
Canada.
France apparently Is still un-
enthusiastic. but it can now be
said that the Western allies
have reached broad agreement
on acting along this line.
The Boun Gum government
had agreed to consider seri-
ously the restoration Of the
commission. This amounts to
a reversal Of its position.
The Soviet government has
told Britain informally that 1t
would not recognize the Boun
Gum government. The West
ern powers hope. however, Rus
sia would agree that the COM
mission should work with that
regime to put an end to the
crisis.
Other Course
II the commission plan Is
blocked by the Soviets or by
some new agreement among
the allies. then the United
States favors q joint allied ap-
proach to the Soviets. Pre-
sumably the intention would
be to give them 0 serious warn
ing against the dangers Of
spreading war in Southeast
Asia.
II the commission can be re-
constituted, its first task would
be to arrange q ceaSe.fire be-
tween the Boun Oum govern
ment and the leftist and pro-

task would be to try to arrange
