WASHINGTON (AP) -- Presi- dent Johnson agreed today to at- tend next month's seven-nation conference of chiefs of state in Manila aimed at trying to end the Vietnamese war. The conference was set up un- der the guidance of President Ferdinand Marcos of the Philip- pines for all the countries with military forces engaged in the conflict. White House Press Secretary Bill D. Moyers told reporters: 'President Johnson is glad to agree to this invitation and will be glad to join the meeting of the other. chiefs of state or gov- ernment, which are participat- ing nations in the Philippines, on or after Oct. 18." tentative. As to whether Johnson would use the trip to Manila as a de- parture point for a major swing through other portions. of South- east Asia, to Australia and New Zealand, for example, the press secretary said that at this point there is no schedule for such a trip. There have been numerous reports from the area that a Johnson visit is expected. Philippines President Ferdi- nand Marcos proposed the con- ference Monday night. He in- vited the leaders of six coun- tries to meet in Manila Oct. 18 to "review the prospects for a peaceful settlement of the con- flict" in Viet Nam; The governments of South Viet Nam, Thailand » Marcos said in a speech at the University of During Heavy SAIGON (CP)--U.S.. bombers cut a vital railway link between Hanoi and China in heavy raids Monday on the Red River valley in the heart of North Viet Nam, a U.S. military spokesman an-' nounced today.

There has been jspeculation in Washington po- litical circles that the presi- dent might make some drama- tic move regarding the Viet Nam situation just before the Nov. 8 elections. Earlier this month during his Washington visit, Marcos had urged Johnson to visit the Philippines. Leaders of other Asian nations supporting the U.S. commitment in Viet Nam also have strongly recom- mended that Johnson make a trip to Asia. In his Honolulu address Mon- day night, Marcos said the em- phasis of the proposed Manila summit meeting would be on the non-violent and non-military aspects of the Viet Nam situa- tion.
