Egypt's demand for the withdraw

Invasion Of
Laos Still
Big Mystery
HANOI, Indochina lP) A single
powerful division left behind in
Laos bv the Communist-led Viet-
minh was proving a headache
Wednesday to the French and Lao
tian defenders ol the little moun
tain kingdom.
All that remained to write finis
to Moscow-trained Ho Chi Minn's
invasion of Laos was for the de
fenders to uproot the Vletminh's
crack Division 304 but It appeared
a tough proposition.
This division, behind a newly
erected strong defense line, was
concentrated around the town of
Xiengkhouang, 18 miles south of
the Plain of Jars In the heart ol
the kingdom.
The French had no explanation
why they didn't attack from their
entrenched position on the plain
where tney have concentrated su
perior power in armaments sup
plied by the U. S.
Instead, they seemed to be watt
ing for the lone enemy division to
withdraw from Laos, as the other
divisions have done, or make a
direct assault dh French positions.
The division shoved spearheads
southward toward the Mekong Riv
er. Reaching the Mekonar would
live the division access to rich
rice-producing lanlTUe jTenoh
would be faced with the problem
of building up new defense posi
tions all along the river from Pak
Sane to Vientiane, the Laos gov
ernments capital, so miles to tne
west.
The French have admitted that
Vietmlnh troops are within 3o
miles or Pak Sane and some are
north of Vientiane.

play began when a high-flying
multi-engined plane approached
Klamath Falls from the south. The
big ship was leaving what ap
peared to be a long vapor trail.
But suddenly, astonished watchers
noted the supposed vapor trail
was turning a brilliant pink, gieen
and orange. And then suddenly,
Ihe trail abruptly ended and the
big plane continued on northward
without leaving any trail at all.
A short while later, persons at
Ihe airport reported seeing a few
swift pursuit planes enter the area,
break formation and zoom off on
tangents as if they might be form
ing an aerial search pattern.
From this, It may well be pre
sumed the Oround Observer Post
here notified some defense base
which dispatched the pursuit
planes to have a look at the funny
things floating about the Klamath
sky.
But, of course, such presump
tions are lust that and chances are
Ihe whole thing was mere much-
ado-about-notning.
However, there were some funny
things going on in the sky this
morning.
