Abstract:
Little heavy fighting took place in South Vietnam last week, but the incident rate remained high. The seven-day period was highlighted by a Christmas truce, more fastidiously observed by the Allies than by the Viet Cong. The South Vietnamese Government has begun to initiate a policy of reprisals against the supporters of the dissident tribal autonomy movement, FULRO, although some officials are still urging moderation. Meanwhile, there are continuing reports of dissatisfaction among the military over the present Ky-Thieu leadership, including rumors of coup plotting.
