FINGERLESS FIDDLER —Raymond Patterson demonstrates his
violin playing prowess in Fort Worth, Tex., an instrument
he had played for 25 years until he lost all the fingers on
his left hand a year ago. He thought he would have to give
it up, but his wife took the violin off the shelf, put it in his
hands and said, “Now play!" And by golly, he found he
could work the strings with his thumb.

WASHINGTON (NEA)
the Many misleading things are being said or implied the Nation- about
role of the Viet Cong and their political arm,
al Liberation Front, in South Viet Nam.
These matters deserve examination, since they stand at the
heart of the argument many Democratic senators are mak
ing—that the NLF must be included as an independent entity
in any negotiations and possibly also in interim and perma
nent governments to follow.
Citing South Vietnamese Premier Cao Ky as his source,
New York’s Sen. Robert Kennedy has said often that the
Vietnamese government in Saigon controls only 25 per cent
of the country’s population of 15 million.
In the context of his remarks, the clear implication is
inevitably left that the Viet Cong control the other 75 per
cent.
Other critics of administration policy in Viet Nam have
said or implied again and again that, for all practical that land. pur
poses, the Viet Cong are the dominant force in
THESE NOTIONS DO NOT FIT the known judgments of
appraisers close to the South Vietnamese scene.
First off, most cited figures affecting control cover the
rural population, leaving key out of account the people in Saigon,
Hue and a few other cities.
Using those noncity calculations, it is stated today by re
sponsible appraisers that the government controls 25 per
cent of the people, the Viet Cong another 25 per cent, and the
remaining 50 per cent are in a no-man’s-land Red heel. of shifting con
trol—but clearly not under the
It is also implicit in many critics' remarks that what the
Viet Cong control today they will continue to control until
they come to the negotiating table. This assumes there can
be no major shift toward our side in the war.
Yet many new pieces of evidence do not support the idea
that the Viet Cong will continue to control 25 per cent
One recent published report from an independent battle
field observer suggested strongly that both the quality and
morale of Viet Cong cadres is sagging gravely.
MORE THAN ONCE, critical analysts have suggested representa- that

The stiff resolve is coming today from North Viet Nam.
With upwards of 16,000 army regulars already in South Viet
Nam, Hanoi is reported sending some 4,000 additional sol
diers each month down the Ho Chi Minh trail.
To beef up faltering VC cadres, the North Vietnamese sol
diers and those still-determined VC middle echelon leaders
are pushing more and more villagers to the point of total
alienation. Ancient prejudices against the northerners play
a part in villagers’ hostility. South Vietnamese people
Some 25 per cent of the may or
may not continue under effective Red control as the war
proceeds. If that figure does hold, the indications seem
strong that these harassed rural folk will in time be ruled
largely by the North Vietnamese army—not by the Viet Cong.

WASHINGTON (NEA)
A major U.S. worry in Viet Nam is that the Compiunists
can take advantage of our being heavily committed and run
a quick coup or make a fast thrust in some other part of the
world.
Advisers close to Defense Secretary McNamara assert this
worry is back of his decision not to call the reserves now.
If the reserves are committed to Viet Nam, the McNamara
argument runs, they wouldn’t be readily available for other
possible emergencies—a Russian move in Europe or the Mid
dle East, a Chinese move in Asia, a new guerrilla war in the
Congo, Venezuela, Peru, Colombia, Thailand.
THE COMMUNISTS WILL BE LESS READY to start a
major move, a diversion if the or Reds an know expansion of the war, these
McNamara men say, the United States has a
trained, uncommitted reserve ready to go fast.
This what-will-the-Reds-do worry is not new. In the Korean
war, it kept us from bombing Red China. It was a major
reason for negotiating instead of driving the Red Chinese
northward to the neck of Korea. Officials were afraid the
Russians would take advantage of our being heavily engaged
in Korea and make a move for Berlin.
More recently, the Communists, seeing us strongly engaged
in Viet Nam, tried to take over the Dominican revolt. Peking
is making threatening moves in Thailand. Delegates to the
recent Tri-Continental (Communist) Conference in Cuba came
out for revolutions in Latin America and Africa aimed at
forcing the United States to divert troops from Viet Nam.
The Communists may be bluffing. They may not have the
strength now to carry out these moves.
But U.S. officials can’t be certain.
This means, say military men, the United States must in
deed, as the Communists maintain, have strong backup forces
in reserve, ready to move.
BUT, THESE MEN SAY, a hefty chunk of U.S. active com
bat forces, including specialists, will be committed in Viet
Nam by the end of 1966, in addition to the sizable contin
gents in Europe, Korea and the Dominican Republic.
Some categories of individual specialists and some types
of specialized units are already running thin.
McNamara’s men say that if it weren’t for the reserves,
these shortages in the active army would leave the United
States short for other emergencies.
All this is very well. But this McNamara strategy assumes
the reserve units have or will soon get the weapons and equip
ment they need in sufficient quantities for quick action over
seas.
Checks indicate, however, that the reserves, in the main,
are far short of the modern weapons and equipment they
would have to have for rapid deployment in Europe, Latin
America or Asia.
This is causing a flap in the Pentagon.
