Kennedy-Hoover Meet in Florida Palm Beach, Fla. -WNI-Two men of destiny, one repre senting the past and the other the future, met briefly Wed nesday night. The past, though old, still appeared vital, energetic and deep in wisdom. The future was young, smiling and con fident. President-elect John F. Ken nedy, 43, and former Presi dent Hoover, 86, met for eight minutes at a reception given for Hoover by Florida banker Loy Anderson. The former President was here for the ceremonial nam ing of a dike in his honor in nearby Clcwiston. The President-elect and his father, for mer Ambassador Joseph P. Kennedy, dropped in to pay their respects. time to family jr' UPI Writer Describes With Northern Laotian Army Editors Note: UPI Corre spondent Charles R. Smith has just returned from the patrol with the Laotian army in northern Laos. In the following dispatch, he reports how difficult it is to find a war. Last year, Smith covered the riots that over throw the Rhee government, in Korea and the leftist violence in Japan that forced cancellation of Pres ident Eisenhower's trip. By CHARLES R. SMITH United Press International On Patrol With the Laotian Army lUI'U - There is a war going on in the sweltering jungles of Laos, but it is al most impossible to find. Even the Laotian govern ment is not always certain where it is or who i.s win ning. Come along with me on patrol with a Laotian army unit and we will look for the elusive war together. You can be assured it is fairly safe and that the only shooting we will find will be coming from friendly forccs-the Laotian army troops and their Ameri can advisers. Our patrol first takes us to an army outpost on the north western outskirts of the royal capital of Luang Prabang. The outpost is a peaceful river town that the Commu nist Palhet Lao radio has claimed to have captured at least four limes within the past month. But no shots have been fired in combat here in more than a month. Enemy 50 Miles Away The nearest Pathct Lao ii forces are at least 50 miles to the northeast, or roughly halfway between the famed Indochinese battleground of Dien Bien Phu and Luang Prabang. Fifty miles is not far if you arc driving across Texas, but in this mountainous jungle country, it is a good five-day march-even for well-trained rugged soldiers. Our patrol takes us out of Luang Prabang by jeep, but the road ends at a village only a few miles out where soldiers live in the Buddhist temple with robed monks. After passing through the village, we begin running across sentries armed with American rifles, submachine guns and carbines. They sit quietly in sniper positions -waiting for an unseen enemy. We trudge up a steep moun tain and see machine gun and mortar positions similar io those found south of the truce line in the Republic of Korea. A Major Outpost Down the mountainside, across a stretch hacked out of the jungle, a trail brings us up to the edge of one of the major outposts between the royal capital and Nam Boc where fighting has been reported going on. Several U.S. 811mm mor tars and a host of 60mm mor tars, as well as some new 57mm recoilless rifles and machineguns makes this one of the best armed outposts of the Laotian army. But any self - respecting mortarman or artilleryman could sit on one of the moun tains in the distance and wipe ,'" '' p,V I - I ii'thiiii'iiwiiViliri Patrol out this outpost in a matter of a few hours at the most. It is situated on a bare hill that is covered with ants and which stands out like a fully dressed man in a nudist colony. Yanks Train Laotians Not too far away, there is a hill where U. S. military ad visers - program evaluation officers (PEO)-are giving fir ing training to Laotian troops. A sharp crack rings out. Lt. Rattanakonc, G-3 operations officer for the regional head quarters, remarks casually, "That's a 57mm recoilless rifle." After a short lull, there is a loud boom and a puff of smoke on the mountainside far in the distance. "That's a mortar," the lieu tenant says. "The Americans are giving instructions in fir ing new weapons we are get ting in." Asked if Ihe Americans were bringing in many new weapons, he replied: "Yes, we are getting many new wea pons now, and we need thorn badly, too." This is a strange war being fought in the teeming jungles of Laos. The enemy is unseen, but the Laotians arc taking no chances. They calmly pre dict they will beat back the Communists if - and when -they come. McClellan Charges Local Is Fronf Washington-IllPII Sen. John L. McCllellan, heading a new investigation of the Teamsters Union, charged today that a New York local was being used as a front for payoffs to racketeers and that union President James R. lloffa knew about it. The Arkansas Democrat, who headed the now defunct Rackets committee and now leads the permanent subcom mittee on investigations, said he drew his conclusion from three days of hearings on the affairs of New York teamster locals. Investigators for the sub committee charged tiiat $(!!),- 985 was siphoned from the treasury of Local 239 during the past two years for "dum my" officers.
