Viet Nam War 1,000 Dying By NEIL SHEEHAN United Frees Internatfonal SAIGON (UPD—While an uneasy peace has settled over Laos, a war that claims a thousand lives a week rages on in South Viet Nam. People here are now asking them selves whether the settlement in Laos—however uncertain —will make the struggle against the Communists in South Viet Nam any easier; Many are sure it will be harder. They are convinced that the Communists can now turn their full attention from Laos to South Viet Nam. As one American military man put it, “The whole northern part of South Viet Nam is now outblanked along a 170-mile border of jungle and mountains. Hie Viet Cong (the Communist guerrillas) can run back and forth across that border any time they want to. And we won’t be able to do anything about it.” With the end of the fighting in Laos, officials fear that North Viet Nam will gradually shift its estimated 10 battalions — 10,000 men—there into fighting in South Viet Nam. The shift, in fact, has already begun. U.S. observers say 2,500 to 3,000 already have crossed over. These officials confirm—despite denials from Washington — that there has been a marked increase in the infiltration of Viet Cong guerrillas across the border into South Viet Nam’s central highlands since the truce and that the buildup of North Vietnamese regular troops continues in southern Laos. As Truong Vinh Le, president of the South Viet Nam National Assemly, put it, "I do not believe the Viet Cong will go home from Laos.” Many observers here doubt—as does Thailand’s Foreign Minister Thanat Kohoman — that the new Laotian government can keep its Geneva pledge that foreign troops will not be allowed on its soil.

President Has Realistic View United Press International WASHINGTON (UPI) —The economic debate asked by President Kennedy in his Yale speech two monthsago is going on but it is not easily heard. Congress read the speech and showed no inclination to take a new look at government budgetmaking despite the President’s complaint that there was too much mythology in federal bookkeeping. Former President Eisenhower led Republican critics who offered scornful replies. The real debate is being carried on by economists but usually in <■ unpublicized speeches or articles which may turn up later in the fine print in the appendix of the Congressional Record. Arthur F. Burns and Raymond J. Saulnier, who both served as chairman of the President’s Council of Economic Advisors during the Eisenhower administration, are the authors of speeches already in the Congressional Record. Leon H. Keyserling, who held the same job in the Truman administration, put his thoughts in print in the New York Times Magazine last Sunday. Kennedy’s own council gets a hearing before the House-Senate Economic Committee this week. As could be expected, the Burns - Saulnier and Keyserling prescriptions are far apart. All advocate tax reforms but—- “. . . I would think that to those pragmatists who regard budgetary deficits as a more or less guaranteed formula for producing a brisk recovery, the present cycle must be a nightmare,” says Saulnier. Keyserling wants “a large and immediate tax reduction” mostly in low and middle income brackets and “a large and immediate increase in federal spending.” He says his formula would mean a federal deficit of $6.5 to $7 billion but would put the economy at the S6OO billion a year level, far enough below capacity to avoid inflation. With industry operating at less than capacity, Keyserling sees .no need for further business tax concessions on top of the new depreciation schedules and the administration tax bin now in Congress. Burns says personal income taxes in middle and upper brackets are too high to encourage incentive and that corporate tax rates are too high to leave business firms enough money to invest in needed new equipment. Saulnier says economic growth depends on a higher rate of investment and that a squeeze on corporate has curtailed investments, ■■ .says the administrating's 1 JyifinjMi aimed at keeping wage raises in line with increaserianP’bdactivty ffltodld be revaed to provide catchup in pxPflfo.”
