16 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesdey, August 4, 1965 First Raid Viet Nam Year Ago By bee nse L, RYAN Associated Press Staff Writer POWER 'ich & creamy ICE LOW LO POWE At, RIC CES Just a year ago, on Aug. 4, the United States for the first time bombed North Viet Nam and began what the defence department would call an es- calation process -- the "new phase." What has been the result thus far? Big dangers seem nearer, the frustrations even greater. The path to solution appears as agonizingly elusive as it was be- fore North Viet Nam tested the U.S. "paper tiger" and. found it had sharp teeth. A year ago, the United States had 16,300 troops in South Viet Nam, technically advisers, Now there are 75,000 there, many in active combat, The conflict, in President Johnson's words, has become a real war, This is the anniversary of U.S. retaliation against North Vietnamese mainiand bases after their torpedo boats at- tacked U.S, warships in the Tonkin Gulf, That began the gradual process by which the United States became deeply committed to war on the Asian mainland. The year of the "new phase" has brought changes which have frayed world nerves. Red China exploded its way into the atomic weapons club, The So- viet Union lost its rambunctious leader, Nikita S. Khrushchev. South Viet Nam's generals turned on their strongman, Lt.- Gen. Nguyen Khanh, and evicetd him in another of their innumerable coups. And the elusive Viet Cong sharply changed tactics and tempo. PLANNED PLOT Informed opinion has specu- lated that Peking masterminded the events which led to the turn in the Viet Nam crisis, that Red China prodded Hanoi into the torpedo boat attacks. If Red China had a hand in the test of the U.S. "'paper ti- ger," it could have been re- garded as just as much a chal- lenge to Moscow and Khrush- chev as it was to the United States. Indeed, it may have been a factor in Khrushchev's fall two months later. But Red China was itself do- ing more talking than acting. It was reported strengthening gar- risons on the' Vietnamese bor- der and souping up the training of its 30,000,000 or so militia. But still it did-mothing directly. Red China's big contribution throughout the year was to block efforts at negotiations and to accuse the Soviet Union of "co-operating with the U.S. imperialists in a peace talks swindle," Evidently, for all their omi- nous talk of a new Korea, the Chinese felt that while the United States expended riches and men in a frustrating jungle; war, Peking could afford to DEATHS By THE CANADIAN PRESS Moscow -- Vitaly I.
