Wt Mil Fact-Finders Begin Gathering For Report To UN Tokyo (UPD The Japanese diplomat who headed the United Nations' four-man fact finding team in Laos is ex pected to report that the Communist campaign tnere is headed by Marshal Peng Teh Huai, commander of Red Chi nese troops during the Korean war. ' An important diplomatic source who read excerpts from the findings of Shinichi Shibusawa, the Japanese di plomat, said today the fact finder found that all evidence pointed to the fact that the Laos campaign was under the direct , supervision of Peng, former Red Chinese defense minister. Mission Completed The U.N. fact-finding team has just completed a 27-day mission to the tiny Indochi nese kingdom of Laos and Chairman Shibusawa is ex pected here today. Other members of the team will meet here Thursday night and the entire group is expect ed to return to New York by Oct. 26. Peng, a veteran Commu nist of the Chinese 8th Route Army, was the commander-in-chief of the Red Chinese armies in Korea from 1951 to 1954. The 60-year-old marshal was deposed in a big Peiping government shakeup an nounced on Sept. 17, and re placed by Marshal Lin Piao. Significantly, for weeks be fore the shakeup, Peng had not been seen in Peiping, nor has he been seen since. ' No Intrusions Diplomatic sources said the U.N. mission found virtually no evidence of foreign troop intrusions into Laos but the diplomatic reports said Peng was .manipulating native Communists. The report also was said to have stated that most of the captured war equipment was made in Czechoslovakia, long one of the most important arsenals for Red China and much of the rest of the Com munist world.
