Vietnam War: Jane Fonda 1972 Visit to North Vietnam CIA, DIA, FBI,
FBIS Files
795 pages of files dating from 1971 to 2010. Chiefly from American intelligence
agencies including the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), Defense Intelligence
Agency (DIA), and the Foreign Broadcast Information Service (FBIS), covering Jane
Fonda’s 1972 trip to communist controlled Northern Vietnam, during the Vietnam
War.
Materials include:
A 2010 United States Air Force Air Command and Staff College research report
titled, “Jane Fonda: Repercussions of her 1972 Visit to North Vietnam.”
Abstract from the report:
“Jane Fonda visited North Vietnam in July 1972. Her actions during that infamous
visit earned her the title ‘Hanoi Jane’. Many feel she betrayed American troops
and the United States; Vietnam veterans still despise the woman after nearly forty
years. A factual historical account of her actions, words, and political alliances
while in Hanoi provides insight to the strong emotional reactions that continue
unabated. Her actions also exemplified the sometimes-narrow line between
antiwar ideology and betrayal. Moreover, despite her stated intentions that she
simply was an antiwar activist promoting peace, the ongoing debate continues if
she committed treason by providing aid and comfort to the enemy.
Her messages broadcast over the communist propagandist Radio Hanoi changed
how the American troops perceived the political will of the United States from the
beginning of the war to its latter stages. Fonda’s words to the American POWs
and servicemen embodied the inextricable connection between public support
from the home front and the war effort overseas. Her statements against
American prisoners-of-war and active pilots were so devastating that the North
Vietnamese used them as a propaganda tool to deflate the morale of the
American troops. The iniquitous legend of ‘Hanoi Jane’ continues because Jane
Fonda caused irreparable emotional damage to Vietnam veterans.”

SITUATION INFORMATION REPORT
Ten international union; repl"esenting mor~ than 4,000,000

workers will offi-cially participate in a "Labor for Peace" conference
at the headquarters of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters
Local 688 in St. Louis on 2'3-24 June.
•The purpose of the conference is to establish a new "Labor

for .Peace" organization whose principal aim will be to bring an im-
mediate end to the war in Southeast Asia.
The international unions participating in the conference include

the following: The International Brotherhood .of Teamsters; United
Auto Workers; Amalgamated Clothing Workers; AFL-CIO; the West
Coast International Longshoremen Ut\ion; the United Electrical, Radio
and Machine Workers; the National Council of Distributive Workers;
the National Hospital Union; the Internatio11al Jewelry Workers; and
the Furniture Workers Union.
-
The "Labor for Peace" group is being spearheaded by the
leadership of the United Auto Workers. Leftist _labor leaders back-
ing the antiwar group are: David Livingston, secretary treasurer of
the Distributive Workers of America; Harold Gibbons, international
vice president of the Teamsters; Clifton Caldwell, vice president of
the Amalgamated Meat Cutters Union and William Simons, vice presi-
dent of the American Federation of Teachers.
David Livingston who was once active in the Young Communist

League organized the Communist Party-led "bring-the boys-home-
strikes" in the mid 1940's. He is currently a spokesman for the
CPUSA influenced Peoples Coalition for Peace and Justice. Harold
J. Gibbons was once active in the Workers Defense League (1951)
an affiliate of the Socialist Party (a-Marxist organization), the
National Council Against Conscription (a cited Coinmunis t front group
in 1948), and is currently a spokesman for the National Peace Action
Cnali lion which i,-; controlled by the T rotskyitc Socialist Wo rkc rs

held in Washirigton, D.C. on 25 March 1972. Hanoi traveler Clifton
Caldwell is currently advocating the complete and immediate with-
drawal of alr America,-, military forces from Indochina on Hanoi's
terms.
Livingston, Gibbons, and Caldwell recently returned from

North Vietnam (April 72) whei'e they conferred with Le Due Tho,
Hanoi's chief Paris negotiator and other Communist chieftains. Upon
their _return to the states, the three trade union leaders condemned
the United States participation in the war and called for the U.S. to
. •·
accept.the current Hanoi peace package. ~~
r:<:
Promoters of the new "Labor f:>.r Peace" organization promise
to mobilize the rank and file of the laoor·moveme nt and its leaders
to bring the Vietnam War to an immediate end. Some l, 500 to 2, 000
official trade union delegates are expected to attend the proposed con-
ference. Actually, the new group is an effort to undercut AFL-QO
Chief George Meany, a consistent supporter of U.S. policy in Viet~am.
In 196·7 a similar effort, the ''Labor •.f\.ssembly for Peace'.' was staged
and judged a dismal failure because few working men would support
a sellout to the Communists in Southeast Asia. It is felt that the
"Labor for Peace" Conference in June will also fail_ to accqmplish_, .
-
its goal. •l·,• . 'l l~\l ,C

July 1972
NORTH VIETNAM: THE DIKE BOMBING ISSUE
Conclusions
I. Hanoi's strident propaganda campaign alleging deliberate US

bombing of the dikes continues. Hanoi no doubt is genuinel·1 concerned
about the effects any US bombing campaign against the dikes could have
on the country's economy. North Vietnam's rainy season will reach its peak
next month, and weaknesses in the dikes caused by last year's flooding
have not been fully repaired.
2. A study of available photography shows conclusively that there

has been no concerted and intentional bombing of North Vietnam's vital
dike system. A few dikes have been hit, apparently by stray bombs directed
at military-associated targets nearby. The observable damage is minor and
no major dike has been breached. The damage should be easily repaired
and should not add appreciably to the threat of flooding. No damage has
been observed in the Hanoi area or against the primary dike system
protecting that city. Repairs to any of the damaged dikes can be made,
using local resources, in less than a week.
Introduction
3. Increased attention - focused in large part by the North

Vietnamese themselves -- rec~ntly has been given the elaborate dike system
of water control in North Vietnam. Hanoi has made repeated accusations
of deliberate US bombing of dikes and has undertaken an energetic effort
to sec that these charges be repeated by foreign observers. The following
discussion provides a brief description of North Vietnam's water control
system, its continual defense against floods, and the effect upon the system
of the scattered bomb damage currently verified by photographic coverage
of the entire Reel River Delta.

North Vietnam's Water Control System
4. North Vietnam\ water control sysll'm is an elaborate network

of dikes, dams, and locks which control the watl'r of the heavily populated
Red River Delta. Most 1Jf North Vietnam's farmland is in the Delta, and
it is dependent on irrigai.ion during the dry months and is endangered by
flooding in the wet months, particularly in July and August.* From the
head of the Delta near Viet Tri, 100 miles inland, the average fall of the
Red River to the Tonkin Gulf is less than six inchl.!s per mile -- a factor
which strongly inllue1i,..:es its flooding characteristics. The rice fields and
population centers of the Delta arc protected by the water control system,
which has greatly reduced - but never eliminated - flooding from natural
causes. Two rice crops a year arc grown -- the firth-month rice is harvested
in May-June and the tenth-month rice in October-November. The
importance of the dil<es and dams to i'forth Vietnam's agriculture is clearly
revealed by the instrnces when the water control system has failed. In the
past, breaches in the dike system have llooded and destroyed rnore than
one-third of the tenth-month rice crop. The Delta also contains the most
important transportation waterways of North Vietnam - the Red River,
the Song Thai Binh River, and the two connecting waterways, the Canal
des Rapides and the Canal des Bambous. These waterways link the country's
principal urban c1~nters -- Hanoi, Haiphong, and Nam Dinh. Southern North
Vietnam also contains rivers necessitating a dike and lock system for water
control and navigation, but the system is less important than that of the
Delta.
Dikes
5. Much of the surface of North Vietnam is interlaced with an

elaborate system of dikes totaling over 3,000 miles. Dikes to control
flooding anrl the course or the waterways arc located along all of North
Vietnam's major rivers, lmt they are most important and most fully
developed along the Red River. The Red River dike system begins near
Viet Tri, only 43 feet above sea level, although about 100 miles inland
at the northwest head of the Delta. The great amount of silt brought down
from the mountains and deposited along the river beds in the Red River
Delta has raised the waterways above the surrounding countryside in many
places and • •1Uires a constant elevation of the restraining walls. In some
areas -- particu,:.::rly around Hanoi - the height of the dikes reaches 40
feet. Thi! primary system of dikes is backed up by a secondary system,
between 4 and 22 feet high, that runs parallel to the main dikes. This

secondary sysll'm is often dcsignl'd lo localize and minimize damage if the

primary dikes arl' breached. A lcrtiar)' system of smaller dikes has also
been built lo divide the rice-growing plains into compartments and lo assist
irrigation. Thc:,c small dikes also control the level or small streams and
local waterways. Additionally, the river dike system is complemented by
small, natural or man-made dikes along thl: coast which keep out brackish
seawater.
Dams anrl Locks
6. In addition to the dikes, dams to control flooding and irrigation

arc located throughout North Vietnam, primarily in the Red River Delta.
Most of the dams arc made of packed earth and are small, being less than
60 feet long and less than IO feet high. The few larger Jams arc constructed
of concrete and often have gaits to permit through navigation of watercraft.
7. The Song Thai Binh River is the only major waterway in the
Red River Delta with navigation locks to control water levels and facilitate
transpcrt along otherwise unnavigable stretches. These locks control water
traffic to Thai Nguyen. A number of secondary waterways in the Delta
have navigaticn locks, but these waterways do nut handle significant
amounts of traffic for urban centers. In the Panhandle, a large number
of small locks arc found in and around Thanh Hoa and Vinh, but only
a fow have significance for waterway transport.
Recurring Floods
8. In the past, heavy rains during July and August, when the river
rises to a seasonal peak, have frequently causcll breaches in the levees
resulting in extcmivc floods and destruction to property and agricultural
crops. Although there have been only a limited number of major breaches
in the dikes since the mid-1940s, heavy rains have continued t,J cause
frequent and substantial losses to the rice crop. In adt!;tion, minor breaks
occur somewhere in the dike system almo~t every year.
9. The August 1971 floods that hit the Red River Delta rank with
the most "erious ever recorded. An estimated 1.1 million acres of riceland
were saiously flooded -- sufficient to destroy the entire crop in that area
(sec Figure I). The floods resulted from extremely heavy rainfall in August,
which came on the heels of higher than normal precipitation in July. In
mid-August, storms took out a one-half-mile section of a levee in a suburb
of Hanoi -- and closed the Hanoi-Dong Dang railroad. At the height of
the flooding, four major breaches occur:ed in the primary dikes along the
Red River, and two of them - near Yen Vien and north of Hai Duong --
inundated vast are,1s of ricelancl. Ti1c area of heavy flooding continued to

I I
expand through late September, probably because prolonged soaking and

high water pressure had undermineJ the secondary dike systems. The floods
receJed gradually in October, but during the last week of the month, rains
from a deteriorating tropical storm caused renewed flooding over large areas.
I 0. Apart from immeJiate rice losses, the floods produced extensive

longer term physical damage. The enormous force of water unleashed
through breaches in the primary dikes caused widespread erosion far beyond
obvious scouring effects in the proximity of the breach. Long stretches
of irrigation canals were cut, and the press reported many washed out
pumping stations, which account for the sustained period of inundation.
Flood water everywhere deposited silt in drainage ditches, further upsetting
water control. The prolonged inundation during the floods probably caused
subtle undermining that will not show until the facilities are again subject
to heavy flooding. In the case of the primary dike systems, weakened areas
may not be apparent until late summer. Although the odds are probably
against a repetition of the 1971 disaster during this wet season, the fear
of floods throughout the Delta nevertheless will be accentuated because
of the probably weakened dike system.
Resiliency of the System to Bombing
11. It would be difficult and require a major effort to achieve

disrupt ion of North Vietnam's water con trot system, particularly the
primary dike system, by aerial bombing even if such bombing were intended.
Coordinated attacks would be necessary against selected targets, such as
specific locks, dams, and areas of dikes. Moreover, bomb damage would
then have ';!ffect only during the relatively short periods of high water -
normally in July and August. Even then, the effects of such bombing could
be countered by the ability of the North Vietnamese to react against
breaches in the system, an ability which has been highly developed as a
result of their lifelong battle against floods.
I 2. Damage to the locks would have little effect on either North

Vietnam's transport or water control systems. Inland watercraft could be
diverted to waterways not dependent on locks. Cargoes intended for water
transport could be sent by the many alternative land routes paralleling the
inland water network. Because of accidental bomb damage during the
1965-68 period, specific '. )cks were rendered inoperative, without noticeable
effect on water transport or flooding in the area.
13. Some of North Vietnam's dams could be breached during periods

of high water, when water current velocity and depth arc greatest and create
maximum pressure. The prospects for causing any widespread flood damage
or disruption of water transport are limited, however, becau3c the dams

I I
in North Vietnam arc, for the most part, very small and retain only a
relatively small quantity of water. Moreover, earthen dams can be repaired
quickly with primitive materials, and almost no construction machinery is
required.
14. The major dike systems arc partil:ularly resistant to bomb damage.
Those in the primary system wuld be breached only by a series of
overlapping craters across the entire broad tops of the dike. Dikes along
the bank of the Red River near Hanoi arc 80 feet wide at the flood line
and some 200 feet at the. base. Moreover, the lips of the bomb craters
would have to be sufficiently lower than the surface of thl- river to initiate
the flow and subsequent scouring action of water rushing through the breach
to break the Red River dikes at any one point. In a concerted effort to
achieve breaching of a primary !ewe, a lar~;;: number of bombs in a very
concentrated area would be requircJ. The destruction of one of the
significant dikes could not occur from one or two unconnected bomb
craters.
Hanoi's Claims Versus Actual Damage
15. Since the early weeks of the US air interdiction program over
North Vietnam, Hanoi has undertaken to convince the world that the dikes
of the Red River are a direct and deliberate target of US bombing. North
Vietnam's official press agencies and radio services have repeatedly described
alleged US bombing attacks on the dike system. On 30 June, for example,
The Phan My, North Vietnam's Deputy Minister of Hydraulics, was quoted
in official newspapers as saying 20 bombing attacks were made on dikes
during the month. More than 40 specific allegations were made by the
North Vietnamese in April and May. Foreign diplomats, newsmen, and, most
recently, the actress Jane Fonda have been escorted to dikes to view specific
damage -- most of it around Hai Duong, cast of Hanoi. A French
correspondent in Hanoi has claimed that "a dozen USjets" staged an attack
on 11 July on a dike syskm outside the "village" of Nam Sach (presumably
the district of Nam Sach north of the city of Hai Duong). Actress Jane
Fonda was also taken to Nam Sach to vil'W the same damage.
16. To assess these accusa lions, a detailed examination has been made
of~ lphotography of the North Vietnamese Red River Delta.
Di cs cratered by bombs were detected at 12 locations (see Figure I and
the table) four of which were just north of Hai Duong (see Figure 2 and
the Appendix) and were probably in the areas visited by some Western
observers. In no case have the craters caused flooding. That there has been
no deliberate bombing effort against dikes is evident from the scattered
locations of the damaged points. Destruction of the dikes around Hanoi
would probably result in the greatest damage to North Vietnam's economy

and logistics effort, but none of the damage has been in this area. Nearly
all damage has been scattered considerably below Hanoi and has also beL'll
below the areas of major breaks resulting from the 1971 floods. If an effort
were launched to inllict maximum damage to the dike system, it would
have focused on the same areas in which the 1971 floods inundated the
rice-rich areas located further upstream from the points actually
bomb-damaged.
17. Detailed analysis of all locations, particularly the Hai Duong area,
clearly suggests that the bomb damage resulted from stray bombs as a part
of attacks on nearby targets of military value. All identified points of dike
damage arc located within close range of specific targets of direct or indirect
military value. Of the 12 locations where damage has occurred, IO arc close
to identified fixed targets such as petroleum pipelines and storage facilities.
Tl1e remaining two damaged points arc both adjacent to road and river
transport line~, valid logistics targets. Because a large number of North
Vietnamese dikes serve as bases for roadways, the maze which they create
throughout the Delta makes it almost inevitable that air attacks directed
against transportation targets cause scattered damage to dikes.
18. There are no signs of destruction - as reported by Hanoi-based

newsmen -- of vital dike portions stretching several miles. In relation to
the dikes, the craters arc of minor size, and no flooding has occurred as
a result of the damage. Although water levels are not at their highest, the
absence of leakages through the craters indicates that damage was limited.
Requirements for Repair
19. The damage has occurred before the flood period, and, if repair
efforts arc begun soon, reconstruction can be completed before erosion
would become serious. The bomb craters verified by photography can be
repaired easily with a minimum of local labor and equipment. A crew of
less than 50 men with wheelbarrows and hand tools probably could repair
in one day the largest crater observed. The work could be completed even
more rapidly if small trucks were used. Repairs to all the dikes could be
completed within a week. Local labor historically mobilizes to strengthen
and repair dikes to avoid serious llooding. An occasional bomb falling on
a dike does not add significantly to the burden of aPnual repair work
normally required. North Vietnam's greater current p,·oblem is to ensure
that the massive damage caused by the 1971 floods has been repaired to
the extent necessary to guarantee against a repetition of that disaster.

Notes on Figure '"'
A photographic search of the Red River Delta area has revealed several
craters on or nL•ar dikes in the area around Hai Duong. The district of
Nam Sach. just north of Hai Duong, has been speci,'ically mentioned in
press reports as being near recently bombed dikes. The dikes along the
Song Thai Binh were damaged in three areas (see Items 1-3) and along
the Song Binh in one area (sec Item 4 ).
The damage to the dikes in the Hai Duong area occurred in the period
4-11 July 1972. All the damaged sections of dikes are close to valid
military-related targets. The damage along the Song Thai Binh (Items 1-3)
appears to have resulted from strikes against the petroleum pipeline. The
damage along the Song Binh was adjacent to the Hai Duong Highway and
Rail Bridge and is within a half mile of a SAM site.
Damage to the dikes in the Hai Duong area is not serious, has not
caused flooding, and could be quickly repaired. For example, the damaged
dike noted in Item I shows the most serious damage but, because it would
only entail replacing some 200 cubic yards of materials, would take only
about 24 hours to repair. The labor-intensive nature of such repair and
past North Vietnamese performance in repairing bomb-damaged facilities
of all types indicate that the task would be an easy one. Craters located
in fields alongside dikes, as seen in the photographs, would not materially
weaken the dikes and thus would not require filling.

Conclusions
I. Hanoi's s~:·ident propaganda campaign alleging dcliberah• US

bc1:nbing of the dikes continues. Hanoi no doubt is gl:tlliinely concerned
about the effects any US bombing campaign against the dikes could have
on the country's economy. North Vietnam's rainy seuson will reach its peak
ner.t month, and weaknesses in the dikes causetl by 1.ast year's flooding
have not been fully repaired.
2. A <:tll~l.y of available photography shows conclusively that there

has been lfO concerted and .i.ntentiom1I bombing of North Vietnam's vital
dike system. A few dikl1s huvc been hit, apparently by struy bcmbs dirl!ded
at mili tary-assodatcd targc cs nearby. The observa bie damage is minor and
no major dike has been breacl•.cd. The damage should be easily repaired
and shmlld not add appreciably to the threat of llooding. No damage has
been observed in the Hanoi area or against the primary dike system
prot,~cting that city. Repairs to any of the damaged dikes l:an b~ made,
using local resources, \n less than a week. .•
Introduction
3. Increased attention - focused in large part by the North

Vietnamese themselves - recently has been given thl l.!laborate dike system
of water control in North Vietnam. Hanoi has made repeated accusations
of deliberate US bombing of dikes and has undfrtaken an energctit: effort
to sec that these charges be repeated hy foreig,1 observers. The following
discussion provides a brief dcscripthn of North Vietnam's water con troi
system., its continual defense aga11;.;t lloods, and the effect upon tile system
of the scattered l.iomb damugc currently verified by photographic covP.rage
of the entire Red River Delta.

North Vietnam's Water Control Sys,~111
4. North Viet1rnm's water control system is un elaborate network

of dikes, clams, and locks which contrnl the water of' the heavily populated
Red River Delta. Most of North Vietnam's farmland is in the Delta, and
it is depe·~.dent on irrigation during the dry months and is endangered by
tlooding in the wet months, particularly in July and August."' From the
head 0f the Delt:1 near Viet Tri, I 00 miles inland, the uveragc fall of the
Reel River to the Tonkin Gulf is less tlu,n six inches per mile -- a factor
which strongly influences its flooding characteristics. The rice fields and
population centers of' the Delta arc protected by the water control system,
which has greatly reduced - but never eliminated - flooding from natural
cau~cs. Two rice crops a year me grown -- the fifth-month rice jg harvested
in May-June and the tenth-month ric~ in October-November. The
importance of the dikes and clams to North Vietnam's agricultuw is clearly
reveak:d by the instanc,is when the water control system has failed. In the
past, breaches in the dike system lu .ve flooded and destroyed more than
1
one-third of the tenth-month rice crop. The Delta :dso contains the most
important transportation waterways of North Vietnam - the Reel River,
the Song Thai Binh River, and the two connecting waterways, the Canal
des Rapides ~nd the Canal des Bambou:.;, These waterways link the country's
principal urban centers •· Hanoi. Haiphong, and Nam Dinh. Southern North
Vietnam also contains rivers nece:;sitating a dike and lock system for water
control and navigation, but the system is less important than that of the
Delta.
Dikes
5. Much of the surface of North Vidnam is interlaced wirh an

elaborate system of dikes totaling over 3,000 :niles. Dikes to control
flooding and the course of the waterways arc located along all of North
Vietnam's major rivers, but they arc most important and most fully
developed along the Red River. The Red River dike system begins near
Viet Tri, onl:.; 43 feet above sea level, although about I 00 miles inland
at the northwest head of the Delta. Tl1e great amount of silt brought down
from the r.1ountains and deposited along the river beds in the Red Rh•er
Delta has raised the waterways above the surrounding •;ountrysidc in many
places and requires a constant elevation of the restraining walls. In some
areas - particularly around Hanoi - the height of the dikes reaches 40
feet. The primary system of dikt•s is backed up by a secondary system,
between 4 and 22 feet high, that runs parallel to the main dikes. This
25X1
* Photography! !provides the first evidence of natural flooding
in the area east of Hanoi as a result of rising water levels.
2 SECRET

25X1
secondary system ir. orten designed to localize and minimize damage if the
primary dikes arc breached. A tertiary system of smaller dikes has also
been built to divide the rice-growing plains into compartments and to assist
irrigation. Thesu small dikes also contt·01 the level of small struams and
local wakrways. Additionally, the rivur diku system is complemented by
small, nutural or man-made dikes along the coast which keep out brackish
scawatl1r.
Dams and Locks
6. In addition to t.he dikes, clams to control flooding and irrigation

arc located throughout North Vietnam, primarily in the Red River Delta.
Most or the dams are made Jf packed earth and are small, being less than
60 feet long and less than IO feet high. The few larger dams arc constructed
of concrete and often have gates to permit through navigation of watercraft.
7. The Song Thai Binh River is the only major waterway in the
Red River Delta with navigation locks to control water levels and facilitate
transpo; t along otherwise unnavigable stretches. These locks control water
traffic to Thai Nguyen. A number or secondary waterways in the Delta
have navigation lockG, but these waterways do not handle significant
an,ount.5 of traffic for urban centers. {n the _Panl~andle, a large number
of smull locks are found in a:1d around Thanh Hoa uncl Vinh, but only
a few have significance for waterway transport.
Rc:curring Floods
8. in the past, heavy rains durin~ July and Augu0t, when the river
rises to a seasonal peak, have frequently caused breaches in the levees
resulting in extensive floods and destruction to property and agricultural
crops. Al though there have been on:y a limited num bcr of maj :>r breaches
in the dikes since the mid-1940s, heavy rains have continued to cause
frequent and substantial losses to the rice crop. In addition, minor breaks
occur somewhere in the Jike system almost every year.
9. The August 1971 floods that hit the Red River Delta rar,k with
the most serious ever recorded. An estimated 1.1 million acres of riceland
were seriously tlood,~d -- sufficient to destroy the entire crop in that area
(see Figure I). The tloods resulted from extremely heavy rainfall in August,
which came on the heels of higher than normal pr~cipitation in July. In
mid-August, storms took out a one-half-mile section of a levee in a suburb
of Hanoi - and closed the Hanoi-Dong Dang railroad. At the height of
the flooding, four major breaches occurred in the primary dikes along the
Red River, mt,i two 0f them - near Yen Vien and north of Hai Duong -
inundated vast areas of rkeland. The area of heavy flooding continued to
SECRET 3

SECRET
25X1
expand through late September, probably because prolonged soaking and

high water pressure had undermined the secondary dike systems. The floods
receded gradually in October, but during the last week of the month, rains
from a deteriorating tropical storm caused renewed flooding over large areas.
I0. Apart from immediate ricl~ losses, the floods produced extensive
longer term physical damage. The enormous force of water unleashed
through breaches in the pritnary dikes caused widespread erosion far beyond
obvious scouring effects in the proximity of the breach. Long stretches
of irrigation canals were cut, and the press reported many washed out
pumping stations, which account for the sustained period of inundation.
Flood water everywhere deposited silt in drainage ditches, further upsetting
water control. The prolonged inundation during the floods probably caused
subtle undermining that will not show until the facilities are again subject
to heavy flooding. In the case of the pr''llary dike systems, weakened areas
may not be apparent until late summer. Although the odds are probably
against a repetition of the \ 971 disaster during this wet season, the fear
of floods throughDut the Delta nevertheless will be accentuated because
of the probably weakened dike system.
11. It would be difficult and require a major effort to achieve

disruption of North Vietnam's water controi system, particularly the
primary dike system, by aerial bombing even if such bombing were intended.
Coordinated attacks would be necessary against selected targets, such as
specific locks, dams, and areas of dikes. Moreover, bomb damage would
then have effect only during the relatively short periods of high water -
normally in July and August. Even then, the effects of such bombing could
be countered by the ability of the North Vietnamese to react against
breaches in the system, an ability which has been highly developed as a
result of their lifelong battle against floods.
12. Damage to the locks would have little effect on either North
Vietnam's transport or water control systems. Inland watercraft could be
diverted to waterways not dependent on locks. Cargoes intended for water
transport could be sent by the many alternative land routes paralleling the
inland water network. Because of accidental bomb damage during the
1965-68 period, specific locks were rendered inoperative, withou,t noticeable
effect on water transport or flooding in . the area.
13. Som] of North Vietnam's dams could be breached during periods

of high water, when water current velocity and depth are greattist and create
maximum pre~sure. The prospects f"1r causing any widespread flood damage
or disruption -Jf water ~ransport are 'imited, however, because the dams
4 SECRET
SECRET
25X1
in North Vietnam arc, for the most part, very small and retain only a
relatively small quantity of water. Moreover, earthen dams c:in be repaired
quickly with primitive materials, and almost no construction machinery is
required.
14. The major dike systems arc particularly resistant to bomb damage.
Those in the primary system could be breached only by a series of
overlapping craters across the entire broad tops of the dike. Dikes along
the bank of the Red River near Hanoi are 80 feet wide at the flood line
and some 200 feet at the. base. Moreover, the lips of the bomb craters
would have to be sufficiently lower than the surface of the river to initiate
the flow and subsequent scouring action of water rushing through tl,e breach
to break the Red River dikes at any one point. In a concerted effort to
achieve breaching of a primary levee, a large number of bombs in a very
1.:oncentrated area would be required. The uestruction of one of the
significant dikes could not occur from one or two unconnected bomb
craters.
15. Since the early weeks of the US air interdiction program over
North Vietnam, Hanoi has undertaken to convince the world thJt the dikes
of the Red River are a direct and delibernte target of US bombing. North
Vietnam's official press agencies and radio services have repeatedly described
alleged US bombing attacks on the dike system. On 30 June, for example,
The Plrnn My, North Vietnam's Deputy Mi 11iskr of Hydraulics, was quoted
in official newspapers as saying 20 bombing attacks were made on dikes
during the month. More than 40 specific allegations were made by the
North Vietnamese in April and May. Foreign diplomats, newsmen, and, most
recently, the actress Jane Fonda have been escorted to dikes to view specific
damage -- most of it around Hai Duong, east of Hano:. A French
correspondent in Hanoi has claimed that ''a dozen US jets" staged an attack
on 11 July on a dike system cutsiue the 11 village" of Nam Sa~h (presumably
the district of Nam Sach north of the city of Hai Duong). Actress Jane
Fonda was also taken to Nam Such to view the same damage.
16. To assess these accusations, a detailed examination has been made

of mid-July 1972 photography of the North Vietnamese Red River Delta.
Dik~s cratered by bombs were detected at 12 locations (see Figurl! I and
the table) four of which were just north of Hai Duong (sec Figure 2 and
the Appendix) and were probably in the areas visited by some Western
observers. In no <.:ase have the craters caused flooding. That there has been
no deliberate bombing effort against dikes is evident from the scattered
locations of the damaged points. Destruction of the dikes around Hanoi
would probably result in the greatest damage to North Vietnam's economy

and logistics effort, but none of the damage has been in this arL'l.!, Nearly
all damage has been scattered considerably below Hanoi and has also been
below the areas of major breaks resulting f'rom the 1971 floods. If an effort
were launched to inllict maximum damage to the dike system, it would
have focused on the same areas in which the 1971 floods inundated the
rice-rich ureas located further upstream from the points actually
bomb-damaged.
17. Detailed analysis of all locations, partkularly the Hai Duong area,
dearly suggests that the bomb dam.;ge resulted from stray bombs as a part
of attacks on nearby targets of military value. All identified points of dike
damage are located within close range of specific targets of direct or indirect
military value. Of the 12 locations where damage has occurred, IO are close
to identified fixed targets such as petroleum pipelines and storage facilities.
The remaining two damaged points arc both adjacent to road and river
transport lines, valid logistics targets. Recause a large number of North
Vietnamese dikes serve a:s oases for roadways, the maze which they create
throughout the Delta makes it almost inevitable that air attacks direckd
against transportation targets cause scattered damage to dikes.
18. There are no signs of destruction - as reported by Hanoi-based

newsmen -- of vital dike portions stretching several miies. In relation to
the dikes, the craters are of minor size, and no flooding has occurred as
a result of the damage. Although water levels are not at their highest, the
absence of leakages through the craters indicates that damage was limited.
Requirements for Repair
19. The damage has occurred before the flood period, and, if repair
efforts are begun soon, reconstruction can be completed before erosion
would become serious. The born b craters verified by photography can be
repaired easily with a minimum of local labor and equipment. A crew of
less than SO men with wheelbarrows and hand tools probably could repair
in one clay the largest crater observed. The work t:oulll be completed even
more rapidly if small trucks were used. Repairs to all the dikes could be
t:ompletcd within a week. Lot:al labor historh.:ally mobilizes to strengthen

I NDOCHI NA
High-level reiteration of Vietnamese determination to continue
the struggle came jn a statement by DRV President Ton Due Thang
pegged to the 20 July anniversary of the signing of the 1954 Geneva
agreements, Thang echoed other propaganda in condemning the U,S,
resumption of air strikes against the North and the mining of DRV
harbors, and he called on "brothers and sisters" throughout the
world to demand that the United States stop its war escalation
and negotiate seriL~~!, at Paris.
The resumption of the Paris talks on 13 July, after a two-month
s,:apension, occasioned no unusual publicity. Hanoi media carried
a standard cryptic account of the session which summarized the
communist delegates' statements rejecting the notion of a cease-fire
before a final settlement is reached. Hanoi duly reported Le Due
Tho's arrival back in Paris on the 15th after stopovers in Peking
and Moscow, but at this writing his meeting on the 19th with
National Security AdvisP.r Dr. Kissing'!r bar· not been acknowledged.
Hanoi's denunciation ot the U.S. air strikes against the DRV
includes continuing, v:'irtually daily protests from the DRV Foreign
Ministry spokesman, Porsistent stress on alleged strikes at North
Vietnam's dikes is highllghted by a 17 July statement from the DRV
Water Conservancy Minist~y spokesman--the fourth statement from
that minist~y since th£ &ir strikes were resumed in April. Concern
over the maintenance of dikes was also pointed up in instructions
from the DRV Premier•~ office, released on the 16th, whicb charged
that U.S. bombing has weakened them.
A Council of Ministers order on wartime mobiliz~tion, broadcast by
Hanoi on 16 July, seemed to reflect the increased strain of current
North Vietnamese manpower requirements as well as long-standing
problems of labor. management and productivity, It echoed a Council
of Ministers resolution released in February 1970 when it referred
generally to the need to mobilize all labor forces and to discipline
those not willing to work. However, there seems to be hP.ightened
urgency in the more specific measures it spelled out and in its
references to mobilization and deployment of manpower to meet
natural calamities and "enemy-caused disasters,"

by President Ton Due ThQng on the occasion of the Geneva agreements

anniversary , Hanoi rel!ased the text of the appeal on 14 July. and
on the 18th reported that it was endorsed in a resclu~1on po~sed
at a 17 July enlarged session of the presidium of t~e Vietnam
Fatherland Front Central Connnittee,* The conferees as well as
Thang in his appeal repented the standard demands that the United
States end its action in the North and the Vietnamiza tion policy,
withdraw all troops from South Vietnam, seriously negotiate at
Paris, and "positively " respond to the PRG's seven-point proposal
and its two-point elaboration . The President's appeal was also
welcomed in a statement by the connnander of the VPA air defense
and a:f.r forces, broadcast by Hanoi on the 17th, which characteriz ed
it as giving new strength to the armed forces in general and to the
air defense and air forces in particular.
CHARGES OF U. S. The charge that U.S. raids against dikes and
STRIKES AT DIKES irrigation works along major rivers were
more frequent and more intensive in the first
half of July than during April, May, and June was pressed officially
in a 17 July Water Conservancy Ministry spokesman's statement
released by Hanoi radio on the 19th, the fourth protest from that
ministry in the past two months.** It charged that during the first
two weeks of July "20 dike portions and two important irrigation
works' in Thanh Hoa, Nam Ha, Hai Hung, Thai Binh, and Ha Bae
provinces as well as many other dike sections and sluices were
attacked "several times in one day." It claimed that on 6 and
7 July raids were concentrate d on three dike portions on the Ninh
To River in Nam Ha Province and that many dike sections along the
Thai Binh Ri"-.1er in Hai Hung Province were bombed and strafed on the
9th. Attacks on the 11th were said to have destroyed four "vital"
dike sections and sluices within the same province. The statement
* This is ,.! , first year that President Thang has issued such an
appeal on the Geneva anniversary , although Ho Chi Minh had done so
in 1965, 1966, 1968, and 1969. On the 15th anniversary in 1969,
there was a "grand meeting" held under VFF auspices at which
Premier Pham Van Dong read the text of Hn's appeal. Preamably
an anniversary statement will be forthcowing from the DRV Foreign
Ministry; ministry stat-ements were issued on 19 ,Tuly .1970 and
21 July 1971, and ministry me111oranda on 12 July J.969 and 17 July
1968.

claimed that foreign newsmen observing some of the attacks on the

9th and the 11th had "agreed that the U.S. imperialists could no
longer deny that they were not attacking the dikes."
A Hanoi radio commentary on the 18th said Secretary Laird "was
forced to acknowledge" at hie preee conference on the 17th that
U.S. aircI"aft "could have" hit dikes and dame in North Vietnam,
The commentary quoted Laird to the ~ffect that he did not rule
out the possibility that "the dikes and dame and other water
conservancy projects" may have been damaged by the attacks of
U.S. aircraft. It of course ignored hie explanation that this
might have occurred if an anti-aircraft installation had been
placed on a dam or dike or when there was a roadway or bridgework
nearby. An article in the army paper QUAN DOI NHAN DAN, reviewed
by VNA on the 18th, mentioned Laird in passing anci said that
U.S. attacks on dikes "can no longer be whitewashed by the Nixon
clique." Hanoi media have also used actress Jane Fonda's cu'."'rent
visit ~o North Vietnam to buttress its case regardin~ alleged
U.S. attacks on the dikes, Hanoi radio on the 10th broadcast a
statement attributed to her which said, among other things, that
the Preef cl,mt was trying to "trick" public opinion into believing
he is t,, i.11g to end the war at a time when more bombs than ever
were bei·::.~ dropped, including those on the dikes of the RE:d
River delta "endangering the lives of 15 million people and their
crops and animals," On the 14th VNA reported that after visiting
bombed dikes in Nam Sach district just east of Hanoi on the 13th,
shP. had asserted that there was no military target in the bombed
area.
A Hanoi radio commentary on the 15th had detailed charges of strikes
at dikes in Thanh Hoa Province, claiming that dikes and irrigation
projects there had been hit 29 times since April and that "many
portions of dikes, sluices, dame, canals, and ditches have been
destroyed." It said that if this results in damage from typhoons
or floods, the President will be held responsible.
VNA on the 12th provided details on alleged strikes at dikes during
the period 9-11 July. Focusing on dike systems within the
''impo-rtant rice producing provinces" of Thai Dinh and Hai Hung
provinces in the Red River delta, the commentary claimed that some
"70 demolition bombs" had fallen on the Tra Ly dike near the
provincial town of Thai Binh on 11 July, "Hundreds of dart bombs"
:iere eaid to have fall en on the same site the previous day,
"seriously" shaking the dike and killing or wcunding many local
inhabitants. The destruction of r. "vit~,1 dike portion" etretch:f!ig

from Hop Tien and Hop Cat villa es in Hai Hung Province on
9 July 'ilJas termed "most serious," It was claimed that bl&sta--
rr.sulting from "32 big-sized demolition bombs"--blew up many
portions of the dike and caused cracka in others. VNA also
charged that U.S. aircraft "dropped time-bombs which pihaetrated
deep into the dike body."
INSTRUCTIONS ON Hanoi radio on 16 July publicized recently
MAINTAINING DIKES issued instructions from the premier on
preventing and fighting floods. Local
party commlttees were instructed to make regular ch~cks on the
condition of all dike embankments to "disclose the weak points
in order to undertake repair measures in time, especially in
the places that were recently struck by the enemy," The instruction
sti~ulated fu:t.ner: All party units are expected to organize
dike-protecting forces and to "constantly oboerve the dike
situation during the flood and typhoon season"; materials for
fighting floods--sandba gs, buckets, and large rocks--are to be
stockpiled and ready for uea "in case of need"; all families
living on river bank lands are expected to make plans "to
evacuate themselves and their property if need be" and "not allow
damage in human and material resources to occur." Indicating
that some dike weaknesses ~ere traceable to causes other than
the claimed U.S. strikes, the directive instructed repair crews
to also look for damage caused by "termites,"
BACKGROUND: Hanoi has periodically shown concern about the
soundness of water conservancy projects, particularly since the
record floods last August. There were instructions from the
premier on 26 August and 2 September as well as decisions regarding
thr. floods by the party Secretariat and the Standing Committee of
the Council of Ministers.• Another inatruction from the premier
was issued on 28 February this year; it revealed that many dikes,
embanlanents, and dams damaged in the record-breaking floods of
1971 "had not been 1·epaired well" and warned that this year's
task of repairing dikes, embankments, and dams would be.heavy.
That & study program was underwey was suggested by the fact that
just prior to the release of the premier's 28 February directive,

NHAN DAN on 23, 24, and 25 February had carried in installments

without exrlanation a 21 November 1963 Council of Ministers
document entitled "Regulations on the Protection of Dikes,"
Among other things, it said:
. . . present dikes have many weak points; they
are made of dirt, were built long ago, were
originally small embankments and have many holes
and termite nests, and their foundation has many
weak portionp, Moreover, because the dikes have
been enlarged and built higher, their conduits
have become relatively smaller and weaker.
Because water currents have constantly changed
and waves are strong during storms, dikes and
protective walls have often eroded at their base
or their upper parts have crwr1bled.
A 7 April directive from the premier on accelerating general
construction work contained the frank admission that the
campaign to repair dikes, dams, and bridges had been slowed
because "a great amount of construction materials were
damaged or lost and the labor force, materials, vehicles,
and machines mobilized to support the fight againAt the flash
floods was considerably wasted, thereby adversely affecting
the implemention of the rainy season construction plan,"
CIVIL DEFENSE, Hanoi's attempt to insulate production
MILITIA FORCES forces from the effects of u.s. bombing
raids was reflected in a 13 July NHAN DAN
editorial. Stressing the need to protect production--"machines ,
e~u1pment, material supplies, storage facilities, factories,
and above all producers"--from U.S. air strikes, the editor:fal
lauded a number of local factories for having "boldly given
cadres and workers some days off to concentrate on consolidating
trenches and shelters." ln units where production cannot be
interrupted, NHAN DAN said, "attention must be paid to the
protection of workers who~e duty requires them lo be permanently
at their working places to operate machines or furnaces, evel\
during the bombing and strafing by enemy aircraft." The
editorial ~dded that "these workers must have shelters right
beside their working places and even conmunication trenches to
get outside if necessary," It maintained that "casualties
caused by ene~7 air raids can be reduced if there are sufficient
trenches and shelters."

A 16 July QUAN DOI NHAN DAN editorial praised the antiaircraft

firepower of local "self-defense militia forces" and claimed
that "no matter how cunning and malicious the U.S. air pirates
may be, they cannot avoid being downed in large numbers." All
militia and self-defense units were called upon "to strive to
train themselves to become skillful gunners" and to "blow to
pieces many U.S. aircraft." As of 18 July, Hanoi claimed to
have downed a total of 3,753 U.S. aircraft.
FOREIGN MINISTRY Foreign ministry spokesman's statements
SPOKESMAN STATEMENTS protesting U.S. bombin1 during the past
week included the following specific
charges:
+ A statement issued on 13 July condemned U.S. bombing actions
of the 12th which allegedly damaged "populous sectors" of Haiphong
and Nam Dinh, as well as the outskirts of both cities, and
"populous areas" of Ha Bae, Quang lUnh, Hai Hung, Thai Binh, Ha
Tay, Nam Ha, Ninh Dinh, Thanh Hoa, Nghe An, Ha Tinh, and Quang
Dinh provinces. The statement also charged that B-S2's dropped
bombs on a number of localities in the Vinh Linh arna. Among
the economic and cultural establishmer.~s reported hit was a
section of the dike surrounding Nam Dinh. The statement charged
that strikes at such establishments were part of the Nixon
Administration's "intentional" bombing and s~rafing of populous
areas, industrial plants, and the dike and sluice system of
North Vietnam.
+ The United States' "frerlzied war acts" of 13 July were
protested in a statement on the 14th, which reported strikes on
Ha Bae, Quang Ninh, Hai Hung, Thai Dinh, Nam Ha, Ninh Dinh,
Thanh Hoa, Nghe An, Ha Tinh, and Quang Binh p·.:ovinces and ,the
Vinh Linh area. Specific areas reported as suffering dam~se
were the Bai Chay summer resort and Hon Gai city, both reportedly
nearly destroyed by previous bombing in June; Cat Bai island in
Haiphong harbor; and a 120-meter section c,f .dike in Nam Duong
villag~, Nam Dinh district of Nam ~a Province, which was described
as "seriously cracked." The statement said such war acts prove
that the United States cherishes iilusions about using its
military might to strike at oopulous areas and dikes in the
DRV--behavior which it cannot deny and which only bares its
"extremely r.ruel, aggressive nature" and exposes its "deceitful
allegations about peace and good will."
+ Continuing strikes on the 14th at Cat Ba island and Nam Dinh city
were protested in the spokesman 1 A statement of the 15th, which also

listed Hai Hung, Thai Dinh, Ha Tay, Nam Ha, Ninh Dinh, Thanh
Hoa, Nghe An, Ha Tinh, and Quang Dinh provincaB and the Vinh
Linh area as being affected by the bombing, Dwellings,
pagodas, factories, and dikes and dams were among tbe cultural
and ecommic establishments r~ported hit; the targets allegedly
included a section of the dike on the Ninh Co River in Nghia Hung
district, Nam Ha Province, which was said to have crmnbled Eis
a result of the bombing. Adding that a number of civilians,
mostly women and children, were killed or wounded, the statement
went on to charge the Nixon Administratlon with grossly
encroaching upon the DRV'~ sovereignty and security and "all
elementary princit,les of international law," as well as
violating the U.S. conanitment to "completely and unconditionall y"
halt the bombing.
+ "Sternly condemning" U.S. air strikes of the 15th, the
spokesman's statement of the 16th cited populated localities in
Ha Tay, Hai Hung, Nam Ha, Thai Dinh, Thanh Hoa, Nghe An, Ha
Tinh, and Quang Binh provinces and the Vinh l,inh area as the
areas hit. B-52 1 s were said to have "carpet bombed" hamlets
and villages in the Vinh Linh area and in Quang Dinh Province,
and u.s. warships were ~aid to have struck at fishing boats
and populated sectors along the coast in these areas. Civilian
casualties and destruction of economic and cultural establishments ,
including a middla school in Hai aung Province, were cited as
crimes further exposing the "cruel and aggressive nrture of th£
U.S. imperialists" and the Nixon Administration 's 11 L.laims about
peace and good will."
+ Bombing and shelling on the 18th of various localities in
and surrounding Hanoi and Nam Dinh were protested in a spokesman's
statement the same day, The statement also reported air attacks
of the 17th on "populous areas" in Lang Son, Ha Bae, Quang Ninh,
Haiphong, Hai Hung, Nam Ha, Thai Dinh, Ninh Dinh, Thanh Hoa,
Nghe An, and Ha Tinh provil"ees and charged t:1at D-52 's had
dropped bombs over hamlets and villages in Quang Dinh frovin~e
and the Vinh Linh area, It alleged that such atta:ks, t~gether
with the "intentional massacre" of innocent people and the
destruction of economic establishments which serve the
livelihood of the Vietnamese pec,ple, "reveal the extremely
cruel and aggressive f ea tu res of U.S. imperialism." World
public opinion, the statement aseerted, demands that the Nixon
Administration end escalation of the war in the North, end
the Vietnamization policy, and "enter into serious negotiations"
in Paris,

r:RV COIKIL OF MINISTF.RS GIVES GUIDANCE ON WARTIME LABOR DUTY

Hanoi on 16 July ralaaaed what it r.allad a "recant" Council of
Miniatara order on wartime labor duty which focu ■es new
attention on North Vietnam' ■ manpower problems and appears to
reflect added uraency in the face of heiahtened military
requtrements and the poaaibility of f looda in the coming
month,. At the same time, Hanoi radio al ■ o reported that the
Miniatry of Labor had "recently" held a conference to publir.ize
the order. Ita injunction that every able-bodied adult be
mobilized for the war ef foi.·t and for "buildina aociali ■m" has
been pre11ed rep~atedly in North Vietnameae propaganda in past
yeara, aa haa ita demand for the enforcfl!llent of labor
discipline. However, the publi<:11 ~ .. un of s"ecific auidance on
labor problems su11eat1 that Hanoi viewa p~oblema in the current
aituation as more critical. A NHAN DAN editorial on the 17th
noted that the obliaation to work haa been a lona•stan~ina
duty tast added that the resistance is now enter:lna "an urgent
and fierce staae" and that "more than ev,1r before," every
able-bodied citizen muat be "mobilized to devcte all his
intellectual and physical ability to totally defeating the
u.s. aaareasora."
Stressing the importance of puttina everyone to work, the order
noted that the state may call back some employees who have
retired for health reasons but are still able to serve. It
cited apecific penalties for those refu■ ing to work, saying
that they will be assianed to work from six months to two years
in accordance with "reaulations on mandatory labor duty." The
order went or, to spell out the responsibility and methods for
deployment of labor, notina amona other thtngs the procedure for
"urgent mobilization of manpower to prevent or combat natural
calamities ar.6 enemy-caused disasters" in accordance with
"procedures to urgently mobilize local human and material
resources as outlined in Council of Ministers Decree 232-TP of
November 1Q65." The order also warned against incorrect
implementation of mobilization and waste of manpower, errors
Hanoi has criticized o\er the years. The NHAN DAN editorial of
the 17th underlined the need for labor discipline--working a
full day and carrying out orders--and stated that those who
do not comply with aasianments may have their pay stopped or
be aubject to disciplinary measures .. The application of the
labor order to aaricult\re was touched on in an undated NHAN DAN

editorial, al10 broadca1t on the 17th, which noted that children

and old people as well a1 peraons in uoor health can be utilized
in agricultural work,*
Further information or. the Council of MinisterA order waa provided
on 18 July when Hanoi broadcast an interview with Labor Miniater
Nguyen Huu Khieu, In re1ponae to a queation about the "legal
foundation'' for the order, Khieu noted that the conatitution
required participation in labor and that a National Aaaembly
Standing Comittee resolution dated 21 l.pril 1965 had "entrusted
the Council of Minister, with the task of drawing up partial
mobilization plans and leading the implementation of the&e plan ■,"
The minister d~ew a diatinction between the usual projects for
which the state mobilized workers and "emerg~ncy ta3ks" which
rt:iquire "prompt Action," The former, he indicated, include water
conservan:y taaks, dike repair, construction of roads And
storare facilities, and support of combat troops "in accordance
with the wartime corvee (dan cong) and mandatory labor statutes,"
The emergency tasks, he said, include protection of storage
facilities and dikes, overcoming the consequences of enemy
bombardment, and supp~rting local combat troops--tasks falling
under "the system of emergency mobilization of local manpower
and material resources,"
BACKGROUND: A Council of Ministers resolution on labor released
on 12 February 1970, when the Nor.th was not being bombed,
addressed itself to less urgent questions than those taken up
in the current order, That resolution announced a decision
to )aunch A "productive labor movement" primarily aimed at
tncreasing production,** It resembled the present order in
pointing out that ~veryone must be mobilized to participate in
productive labor, and it noted cryptically that "those who
oppose labor" must be "reeducated," But the 1970 resolution was
aimed chiefly at g~iding a broad movement to insure the fulf:illment
* The use of children and the elderly in ag~iculture has been

advocated previously, For example, an article on labor mobiliza-
tion in the March 1967 HOC TAP, by Politburo member Pham Hung,
pointed to the advantages of drawing agrieultural workers from
labor forces outside the standard age brackets.
** The productive labor movement is discussed in FBIS Special
Report No, 301 of 7 August 1970, "North Vietnamese Problems and
Policies as Outlined in Le Duan's February 1970 Article," page 27.

of the utate plan and did not rai1e tht que ■ tion of emqrgency
mobilization to cope with natural calamitie ■ and di ■ aatera
cau ■ ed by the war,
Propaganda haa indicated that the productive la~or movement did

not aucceed in mobilizing all potential worker ■, For example,
a January 1971 HOC TAP article by Vice Premier Do Muoi noted
that there were ■ till able peraona who were not carrying out
their labor dutiea and who should be mobilized, Similarly, a
party Secretariat inatruction ia ■ued on 15 January thi ■ year
deplored the fact that "the labor productivity movement ha ■
effectively been alter~o, and no aeething revolutionary movement
has developed among w~rkera and peraonnel t~ mobilize them to
actively improve their cultural and technical knowledge and
emulate in increasing labor output and economic effects in
order to build the country and socialism," Difficulties in
obtaining laborer ■ during the disastrous floods in North Vietnam
late last. summer were mentioned in some propaganda; an editorial
in the November issue of HOC TAP noted, among other things, that
during the struggle to combat the floods some people "refused to
actively participate in collective labor," Th3 current Council
o" Ministers order is probably aimed at avoiding any such
breakdown under the pressure of bombing or floods this year,
as well as at enforcing general labor dis~ipline in normal work,
PRG, ~ PRESS MILITARY, POLITICAL SOWTI~, REJECT CEASE-FIRE

At the resumed Paris talks on 13 July both DRV chief delegate Xuan
Thuy ~nd PRG Foreign Minister Mme, Binh indicated that progress
was dependent on "new" U.S. proposals--a position that had also
been reflected in Xuan Thuy's remarks upon his arrival back in
Paris,* The VNA account of the session, as usual, obscured the
fact that the allied delegatas spoke first and reported no
details of the remarks by AmbassadomPorter and Lam, It said
only that "the Saigon administration' a" delegate "rehc1qhed the
so-called eight points which had already been turned down by the
Vietnamese people, The U.S. delegate, too, did not produce
anything new, only repeating what Nixon had already said in his
8 May 1912 stateme'\t,"

"Mr, Nixon aaid that in exchange for total U,S, troop withdrawal

ar.tivity, the Vietnameae people muat agree to obser.ve a
ceaae-fire and releaae the prisonera of war," Thuy thua
obacured the fact that the Preaident had called for a cease-fire
throughout Indochina, He claimed that the propoaal meant that
the United States would keep its "neocoloni aliat 11 regime in
South Vietnam intact while the Vietnamese would have to give
up their struggle, The VNA account did not report these remarks,
but it did note lhuy's reassertion that the PRG's seven-poin t
proposal provides that after military and political problems have
been discussed and agreed upon, "there will be a cease-fire ,"
Mme, Dinh, for her part, said that military and political problems
must be solved simultaneou sly, While reporting this statement,
VNA did not mention that it was preceded by an attack on the
President's 8 May proposal. Mme, Dinh said: "A so-called
immediate cease-fire before agreement is reached on military
and political matters is only an arrogant and illogical
ultimatum, Such a cease-fire .• , would legalize the Thieu
admirlstrat ion and the military presence of the United States,
and at the same time would deprive the Vietnamese of their

PEKING OFFERS RESTRAINED CCY+1ENT Cl4 VIE'llW-1 DEVELOPMENTS

In a~cord with its wait-and-see reaction t.o President Nixon's
announcement of the resumption of the Paris conference and its
call for a negotiated aettlement, Peking has been proclaiming
only minimal support to its Vietnamese allies while muffling
ctiticism of the United States, As usual avoiding direct comment
on the Paris negotiating sessions, Peking replayed the VNA
account of the 13 July session, including the communist
delegates' invocation of the PRG's seven-point plan and the
demand for a simultaneous sett.lament of the military and
political questions, For its part Peking baa continued to
sidestep any explicit endorsement of the communist peace plan
and has refrained from coment on the U,S, position at Paris,
The Chinese routinely reaffirmed support for the war effort
when Chou En-lai received the ORV amba~sador on 15 July and in
a joint communique with a visiting delegation of the People's
Democratic Republic of Yemen (PDRY) dated the 17th,
The ORV ambassador handed Chou a copy of the 14 July appeal
issued by ORV President Thang on the occasion of the 18th
anniversary of the signing of the Geneva agreements on Indochina,*
In contrast to his last such reportr.d meeting with a North
Vietnamese envoy on 12 April in which the DRV charge d'affaires
handed Chou the text of an 11 April ORV Gove.rnm£nt statement on
U.S. bombing, the Chinese premier was this time notably more
reserved in pledging support. Whereas in April he had promised
"all-out support and ~••i ■ tance" for the war effort, adding
the warning that "the Chinese government and people are closely
following" U.S. attacks on North Vietnam, Chou at the recent
meeting merely reaffirmed in bland terms that the PRC "will, as
always, firmly support" the "Vietnamese struggle. According to
NCNA' s account, Chou had a '-'very cordial and friendly"
conversation with the ambassador--Peking's standard characteriza-
tion for meetings with its close allies, but ona which it had
avoided using for recent Sino-Vietnamese contacts until Le Due
Tho's stopover en route to Paris. Chou echoed the Vietnamese
appeal--carried textually by NCNA on the 14th--by accusing the
United States of having "thoroughly violated" the Geneva agreements.**
* Last year the Geneva accords occasioned a PEOPLE'S DAILY editorial

on 20 July, the date of the adniversary.
•• Continuing to publiciz~ support from abroad, Hanoi on the 17th
replayed Chou's pledge of support and his criticism of the United
States, adding a passage not in the NCNA account that the premier had
dismissed "as complete nonsense" thP. U.S. charge that North Vietnara
had invaded the South,

Apart from Chou's minimal response to this DRV initiativ e,

authorita tive PRC comment on Vietnam has been limited to only
passing reference s to the war in recent sreeches by Chou
and Foreign Minister Chi Peng-fei and in the joint comuniqu e
with the PDRY delegatio n, At a 17 July banquet welcoming a

the YAR's support for the Indochinese war effort and its

Secretary Laird'a conference that day, citing him as having
"admitted" that U,S, planes bombed DRV di"-gs 1tnr! dams and that
irrigation structures were "possibly damaged," On 18 July the
Moacow domestic servico, reporting a statement by White House

the will" of the Vietnamese and cannot attain a "military solution,"
Peace talks are the "only'' means to reach a settlement of the

not intend to put forward any new proposals at Paris, referring
to unspecified comments by Secretary Rogers, The American
attitude is shown, says the commentator, by the U,S, intention

Moscow commentators also take the occasion to question Senator

reported Ton Due Thang' s appeal. On the 18th TASS biiefl~,

Friendship Society delegation to take part in a "solidarity

expresses support for the Vi~tnamese in connection with
"international Vietnam day,'' These observances are presumably
related to the Geneva agreement anniversary, having been
standard features of the anniver,ary in past years.

STOPOVER on route to Paris note th11t he was mg'.: :1t the
airport by Party Secretary Katushev, Central
Committee official Rakhmanin, and Deputy Foreign Minister Firyubin.
TASS reports that Tho had talks with Katushev in a~1 atmosphere
of "fraternal friendship and solidarity."
During Tho's June and April stopovers, there were no reports that
he had talks with any Soviet l~aders, but in each case the
stopover coincided with Soviet-ORV talks taking place in Hanoi.
On those occasions he was met and seen off by Rakhmanin and
deputy foreign ministers. The only time Katushev's presence was
reported at Tho's departure was in April, just after Katushev had
returned from his visit to Hanoi. When Tho stopped in Moscow in
July 1971 en route home from Paris he had "warm and cordial" talks
with Politburo member Kirilenko, and in June 1971 en route to Paris
he met with Kirilenko and Katushev. There were no reports that he
met any Soviet leaders during a stopover in January 1970. During
earlier trips he met with Kosygin and once with Mazurov.
"' Moscow has not recently acknowledged that the DRV ambassador has
been delivering copies of North Vietnamese statements in his
meetings with Soviet leaders. VNA, but not TASS, had reported that
during Xuan Thuy's meeting with Kosygin in May during a sto~over in
Moscow en route from Paris to Hanoi, the. DRV ambassador hand:,d
Kosygin a copy of Hanoi's 10 May government statement denouncing
the U.S. mining of DRV ports. The DRV ambassador had been received
by Brezhnev, Kosygin, Grechko, and Katushev in April. The timing
suggests that the DRV envoy at these meetings had presented the
11 April DRV Government statement and the 16 April DRV Party-
Government appeal protesting U.S. bombings, but neither Moscow's
nor Hanoi's reports mentioned this.

ACTION IN CilUW3 TRI PR<JtPTS FURTI-ER PRG CHARGES OF ''CRIMES"

Intensive allied bombing and shelling in support of the Saigon
counteroffensive in Quang Tri Province prompted a second PRG
Foreign Miu1~try statement, released on 18 July. Like the first
statement, dated 11 July,* the one on 18th warns of "necessary
military and political ueaauraa to punish the u.s. imperialist
aaareasora for their war crimes." The statement particularly
scores intensive bombina and shelling from 1 to 17 July and
charges specifically that on 17 July alone B-S2's made morA than
JrJ sorties, dropping 2,500 tons of bombs on Quang Tri city and
~ta outskirts. It also decries bombing of the citadel in Quang
Tri city from 10 to 17 July and the use of "many 'smart' bombs"
against the citadel on 12 and 16 July "in an attempt to destroy
it."
Foliowing up the claim in the earlier statement that bombs and

shells cnntaining toxic chemicals had been used on 8 a&1d 9 July,
the current statement asserts that "between 8 and 14 July the
U.S. imperialists on 31 occasions used bombs and shells containing
toxic chemicals in their strikes at Quang Tri city and Nhan Dieu
and La Vang villages" south and southwest of the city. It adds
that "after dropping bombs containing toxic chemicals the U.S.
imperialists dropped bombs that killed the poisoned people."
A 13 July DRV Foreign Ministry statement supporting the 11 July
PRG statement had repeated the PRG.' a charges about toxic chemicals
and had rejected statements by U.S. authorities that the allies
have only used tear gaa in the campaign. And a 19 July DRV
Foreign Ministry statement, on the 18 July PRG statement,
charged that "many" have died from ch~mical weapc1ns .ind declared
that "this utterly heinous crime of the U.S. authorities cannot
be covered by their claim that they were using 'tear gas' only."
(l'RG press spokesman Ly Van Sau at the briefing after the Paris
session on 13 July, when asked whether the chemical involved was
tear gas, DDT, or something new, responded with the claim that
"as everyone in ~outh Vietnam knows, the United States is using
C.S. in a form which is 100 times more concentrated than what is
used in the rest of the world, and this gas is used in such
conditions that it becomes a deadly pnison gas." Consistent
with general practice, Vietnamese comunist media have not
reported the post-session briefings.)
~ The 11 July statement was discussed in the 12 July TRENDS,

pages 11-12.

Graphica lly portrayin g the extensive nature of the alleged

attacks, the PRG Foreign Ministry statement maintain s that
"the U.S. imperial iata have maaaively uoed tens of thousands
of tona of bombs and hundreds of thousands of artillery
rou"ds in bombarding an area leas than 36 square kilomete rs
wide with the aim of destroyin g an entire city in a newly
liberated area." But it concludes that bombs and shells
cannot reverse the allies' "defeated situation " or save
Vietnamization and that the liberatio n forces will persevere
in advancing to total victory.

tGCCM SILENT 00 CAIRO OUSTER OF SOVIET MILITARY ADVISERS
Egyptian Pre ■ ident as-Sadat's 18 July announcement to the Arab
Socialist Union (,\SU) Central Committee of the deci■ ion to
terminate the miasion of Soviet military experts and advisers
"as of 17 July" has drawn no reaction in Soviet media as yet.
TASS and a Moscow broadcast in Arabic on the 18th carried
identical two-sentence reports on the opening of the ASU
meeting, chaired by as-Sadat, noting that Egyptian papers
pointed to the "great significance" of the session,
!or the Soviet ho111e audience, a Moscow broadcast late on .the
18th--well after reports of as-Sadat's move had begun to
circulate abroad--conveyed a picture of business, friendship,
an<l cooperation as usual in blandly reviewing prBparations for
the coming celeb.ration of Egypt's 20th revolution anniversary
on 23 July, It noted that preparations for the third session
of the ASU National .Congreaa, acbedulcd for the 23d, wer.e being
discussed at a Central Committee session under as-Sadat's
chairma~ship and that Prime Minister Sidqi was to report on
the results of his recent visit to the Soviet Union. The
broadcast added that the Egyptian press had been publishing
"many materials these p•st days on the development of Egypt's
economy and culture and on the aid rendered by •the Soviet Union,"
It went on to cite the Cairo AL-AKHBAR. as saying that "as a
result of the Moscow. talks" a decision had been taken to
accelerate the completion of the Helwan metallurgical combine,
and it noted an AL-.AHRAM report that a week of Soviet-Egyptian
friendship would be held in Egypt concurr~ntly with the
anniversary celebrations.
Soviet treatment of Sidqi's 13-14 July visit to Moscow gave no
intimation of fresh difficulties in Soviet-Egyptian relations,
although Cairo papers on 18 July said the visit was "closely
connected" with the "positive decisions" to 'be announced by
• as-Sadat that day, and the Beirut AL-ANWAR, aa reported 'b-:
the MIDDLE EAST NEWS AGENCY (MENA) on the 19th, said that the
decisions had been adopted 10 days ago and that "Cairo political
leaders had comunicated them to Soviet ·officials," Persisting
Soviet-Egyptian frictions were reflected, however, in further
defensive rebuttals of Egyptian criticism of Moscow. Thue, along

hailing the visit .as .fresh evidence of Soviet-Eg yptian friendshi p

AL-YUSUr ae affirming that the Soviet Union "does not interfere
in the internal affairH of other countries " and "continue s to
reject the idea of .'expol'.ting revolutio n,'" And a Moscow
commentary in Arabic on the 16th, pegged to the joint ·communique
nn Sidqi's visit, claimed that this document provided .a "stern
reply" to "fabricat ed lies of imperial ist and Zionist propaganda"
implying that the .Soviet Union "is intereste d in continuin g the
'no peace, no war' state" in the Middle East~ Podgornyy, :f..n a
banquet speech honoring the visiting Syrian president on 6 July,
had rejected allegatio ns that the USSR was intereste d in
preservin g this situation .
Sidqi'e visit cam'! .close on the heels of the Soviet-Sy rian talks
in Moscow, following which President al-Asad had immediately
gone to Cairo for talks before returning to Damascus. The
apparentl y hastily arranged Sidqi viait·was announced in Cairo
on the 11th, with MENA reporting that Sidqi had met twice that
day with Soviet Ambassador Vinogradov.
AS-SADAT After reviewing Soviet politica l, military, and
DECISIONS economic .support.f or Egypt ae well as Soviet-
Egyptian differenc es, as-Sadat declared that
having received Moscow's explanati on of the u.s.-Sovi et summit
talks he felt tlae need for "a pause witl-. the friend." ABBerting
Egypt's full appceciat ion of the USSR.' s "big assistanc e" and .
concern for its f r.iendship , "while we are. at the three hold of a .
new stage of this f.rie.ndship," he announced hie decisions : to
terminate the mission of Soviet military experts and .advisers.
as of 17 July; to consider all military equipment ·and installa-
tions set up within Egyptian territory since Jwie 1967 .the sole
property of Egypt and under the administr ation of .its armed
forces; and to call, within the framework ,,f the Soviet-Eg yptian
treaty, for "an Egyptian- Soviet meeting on a level to be agreed
on for consultat ions regarding the coming ntage."
President as-Sadat add~d that these decisions in no way affected
the eBBence of Soviet-Eg yptian friendshi p, .md AL-AHRAM .under-
lined this point on .the. 19th in stating• according to MENA,
that the new s.tepa do not affect the Soviet-Eg yptian treaty
and that Egypt 1'::.e .eage.r for the prov:lsion s >f this treaty to
remain in force.I' AL-ABRAM also explained that terminati on of
the Soviet military advisers' mission "does not apply to Soviet
training personnel " who are helping the Egyptian armed forces.

s1m1 's "FRIENDLY WMKING V[SlT" TO US.SR PRECEDED CAIRO t1DVE

Apart from publicity for the joint communique on ~gyptian Prime
Minister Sidqi's 13-14 July Moscow visit, Soviet media gave
relativel y little attention to a visit variously descr.ibed a~ a
business or working trip, an official friendshi p visit, and
simply a friendshi p .\~ait. Moscow was silent on the scheduled
duration of the talks; Cairo media displayed some confusion ,
initially announc ~ that they wnuld last sever.al .days and
reporting Sidq1 :.a .departur e f t a "three-da y" visit. But
Cairo's AL-AKRAM, reporting the star.t of the talks on the 14th,
said that while "accordin g t<., the initial program" the talks
might end the same day, "sources close to the talks" indicated
that the visit might .be extended on.e or two more days, with a
number of delegatio n members atayi"!J beh:lrid to discuss details.
TASS on the 14th listed those present for the ,alks that day,
report -'ng that views were exchanged on a wide range .of "question s
of bilatera 1 relations " in an atmosphere of "friendsh ip and
mutual understan ding•~ and in the spirit of the Soviet-Eg yptian
treaty. Special attention , TASS added, was given to the
Middle East situation , and the tuo sides expressed satisfact ion
with the relations of "tradition A.! friendshi p and fruitful
cooper::t: lon." AL-AKRAM, reporting the. :··esults of the "quick
visit" on 16 July, said tht. full <..elegati ons met for a three-
hour session on economic relations ; after that, "some members
of both sides withdrew ," leaving , •.,, .the Soviet side only
Brezhnev , Kosygin, Gromyko, and Grechko to discuss military and
politica l questions .. This session, AL-AH.RAM said~ lasted f.ive
and a half hours. Cairo tadio's press review on the 15th noted
that Brezhnev interrupt ed his summer vacation to participa te in
the talks. In reporting the opening ser:1sion, Cairo on the 14th
said Sidqi conveyed as-Sadat 's greetings to the Soviet leaders,
"inquired about Brezhnev 's health,"* and invited him to visit
Egypt--an invitatio n not .recorded in the communique. (The
communique on as-Sadat 's February visit to Moscow, .but not
the April :,ne, noted Brezhnev 's acceptan ce of an invitatio n
to visit Egypt.)
* Aa-Sadat.'s solicitou s inquiry would seem to represe'-'. t a dig ·at

Brezhnev for failing to greet and see off the Egyptian presiden t
on his April visit to Moscow. In his May Day speech as-Sadat had
remarked on "ou·.: enemies' ·pleasure " at this omission and .carefull y
uplained that Brezhnev had had two long meetings with him defpite
a "39~degr ee-centig rade temperat ure."

1'ho program of the viai.t included a dinner for Sidqi--cona iderably

delayed, accocding to AL-AHRAM, by the extended political-
military discuaaion , Moacow'a coverage of thia function was
confined to a brJef TASS report noting that it was held in a
"warm and friendly atmosphere" and that Koaygin and Sidqi
"exchanged toast ■," While Moscow gave no indication of the
substance of the remarks, Cairo media publicized Sidqi'a ■ peech
and AL-AHR.AM on the 16th briefly reported Koaygin ay a tr.easing
the USSR.'a friendahip for Egypt and as addina: "Please convey
to Preaident aa-Sadat what Brezhnev ■aid, that we are not
exchanaina Egypt's friendship for another friendship, and also
tell him that the Soviet Union's friendship with Egypt is a
strong one and we will struggle for this friendship and victory
will be ours." Sidqi, aa reported by Cairo t'adio on the 15th,
responded that "campaigns of milreprese ntation and mialeading" .
would not make the Egyptian people doubt t.heir "aincere f1:iends,"
He asserted Egypt's determinati on to put an end to Israeli
"aggreasion " and .expr.eased the confidence of "our. people" that
"you Soviet brothers stand with them with all your hearts and
with all kinds and forms of support and backing in the various
fields,"
BILATERAL Like TASS' earlier report on the talks, the joint

RELATIONS communique noted that an atmosphere of "£.riendship
and mutual cooperation " prevailed--somewhat more
subdued than the atmosphere of "full trust and mutual understandi ng"
in which as-Sadat's February and April discussions were said to
have been held,* The communique recorded both sides'. resolve to
"further coordinate their efforts" in the struggle against
imperialism and reaction and for peace, freedom, and social
progress, References to the Soviet-Egy ptian treaty were patterned
after similar formulas in the February and April documents,
The economic aspect of the talks was underlined in a Moscow Arabic
broadcast on the 13th, ~elcoming Sidqi, which pointed out that
his name was connected with the economic field, "one of the most
effective fields" of Soviet-Egyp tian cooperation , But the .
communique made no mention of any further economic agreements,
although AL-AHRAM on the 16th reported that the sides had agreed
to expand economic cooperation , including t ·,e signing of a new
agreement in September when an Egyptian delegation would go to
Moscow to draft the final text and specify the projects in which
the USSR would participate ,
* Radio Moscow gave the co11111unique considerab ly more publicity

than it had given other Soviet-Arab communiques this year,

In the military field, the communique containe d no Soviet r,,ledge1,1

of further assistan ce, with the sides merely confirm ina their

differin g CAiro and Moscow version s of the communique on
Grechko 's k.,y ta tka in Egypt and the absence of a communique on
Eayptian War Ministe r Sadiq's return visit to the USSR in June
had suggested something less than a meeting of minds in this
area, as as-Sada t himself had indicate d in a 24 April questio n-
and-answer session with members of the ASU Central Committee,
ARAB-ISRAELI The communique containe d the usual passage
C<J,4FLICT condemning Israel for its refusal to w~~hdraw its
forces and for pursuing an annexat ionist policy,
also adding a complai nt that Israel has been obstruc ting "all the
stepA proposed up to now" aimed at settling the conflic t.
The communique also containe d a new version of the passage
introduc.ed in the April as-Sada t colllll'.unique, which had declared
that the Arab states "have every reason t.o use other means" to
regain the occupied lands. The s~viet side, the current document
said, shares the opinion of Egypt and other Ar,cib states that in
conditio ns of Israel's rejectio n of a just politic& ! settlem ent on
the basis of Resolut ion 242, Arab states "have every teason to
use all the means at their disposa l" for the liberati on of the
territor ies seized by Israel and for insuring the rights of the
Arabs, includin g the Palestin ians.
The absence of any referenc e to the Jarring mission is notable in
view of the endorsement of the UN envoy's activit ies in the
Soviet-American communique on Preside nt Nixon's Moscow talks.
While as-Sada t and the Soviet leaders had strongly urged •
resumption of the mission in the communique on the February
visit, there was no referenc e to Jarring in the April communique.
Sidqi's visit to Moscow came on the eve of UN Secretar y General
Waldheim's 17 July arrival there for talks, and on the heels of
Waldheim's Geneva meeting with Jarring and his 11 July announce-
ment--re ported .by TASS--that the Swedish ambassador would arrive

Waldheim and the .opposing sides. Moscow had greeted this news

national technical monito,'n g facilitie a at ita diapoaal while
observing generally recognized norma of internati onal law."
This atatement prefaced Viktorov '• comment on the uae of
satellite s:
It should be noted that the exiatenco of auch sophisti-
cated facilitie s, particula rly artificia l earth
aatellite a, made it considera bly easier to reach
agreement, Pince it removed the question of conducting
internati onal on-the-sp ot inspectio ns, which had been
a s~umbling block during previous e~amin&tiona of
maay other disarmament meaaures . . , . The treaty
prohibits interfere nce by the other side with national
technical monitoring facilitie s.
Another post-summit article on the SALT accords, in the 2 June
issue of NEW TIMES (No, 23) by N, Arkadyev, also noted that the
two parties to the ABM treaty undertook to use "technica l control
facilitie s at thetr disposal" but did not go on to mention
satellite s, Pr.I.or to the Moscow summit, Soviet commentators
and spokesm'!n had only rarely broached the subject of "spy
satellite s," usually in the context of denouncing Washington
for •P.ing them to carry out "subversi ve" intelligen ce activitie s,
In linking the use of satellite s with "generally recognized norms
of internati onal law," the Viktorov article may portend a con-
structive change in the Soviet media's treatment of space
reconnais sance.

In line with tradition al practice, Soviet media are devoting
limited commant and reportage to the U.S. election campaign,
with the Democratic Convention in Miami drawing leas than one
percent of Radio Moscow's coaient to all audiences during the
week it was in progre■■• To date PRAVDA and IZVESTlYA have
discussed the outcome only in correapon dents' dispatche s from
Miami, relying heavily on the views of U.S. observers . Moscow's
cautious approach so far has been to portray McGovern's selection
as a reflectio n of public disaat:f.sf action over Vietnam and a
desire for "radical changes" in American policiew, while at the
same time taking ~ote of "inconsis tencies" in the Senator's
program and dismi,1aing the party platform as a whole as
offering no prospect for significa nt change. Apart from noting
that President Nixon w:'.11 "no doubt" be the Republican standard-
bearer in November, Soviet comment has avoided reference s to
the Presiden t's campaign for reelectio n and predictab ly steered
clecr of speculati on about the outcome. But it has underscored
disarray and division in the Democratic Party and in effect
forecast a difficult path for McGovern.
Against the background of the classic Soviet portrayal of
American elections as offering the voters a choice only between
reptesent atives of "big business" interests , Radio Moscoi-·
correspon dents Zorin and Soltan in a dispatch from Miami on
the 14th sought to explain why McGovern was nominated "despite
the oppositio n ~f the party machine and the dissatisf action of
the Wall Street businessm en." They attribute d his victory to
"the mooc! of the American general public, which is desperate ly
longing for radical changes in the country," is "disguste d with
the policy of continuin g aggressio n in Vietnam, and is .
dissatisf ied with the rising cost of living and growing
unemployment." The dispatch added that "McGovern's campaign,
despite its inherent demagogic element, to a certain extent
took this mood of the masses into account, and that is why
he became his party's presiden tial candidate ."
In 1968 Soviet commentators had emphasized the affinitie s of the
two candidate s on the Vietnam issue and concluded that the
voters had no real choice in the election. Now, while playing

nomin ation, Moscow has avoided comparing it with Presid ent Nixon 's,
rather settin g out to disparage pre-e lectio n promises in gener al,
A panel ist in the 16 July domestic servic e round table, in the course
of a wide-r anging discu ssion of U,S, foreig n polic ies, recall ed
that the Presid ent, too, had promised to end the Vietnam war
before he was electe d, Typify ing commentaries devoted stri,~ tly
~o the electi on campaign, which have avoided speci fic mention
of the Presid ent '.s .posit ion, a dispa tch by PRAVDA' s Sti:·elnikov
on the 14th interp reted McGovern's nomination as. a r.ef lectio n of
public dissa tisfac tion over "the Penta gon's aggre ssion" in
South east Asia and single d out for quota tion the Senat or's pledge
of a U, S, withdr awal f.n his accept ance speech .
A 15 July Miami dispa tch in SOVIET RUSSIA took McGovern to task
in observ ing that althou gh he owed his nomin ation in part to
suppo rt of "liber al" f.orce s, he is "alrea dy yieldi ng to .pressthe
ure
from the right. " Decla ring that the Senat or has "modi fied" his
positi on on Vietnam, the dispat ch said that where in the pP.st
had called for a total withdr awal ~f U.S. forces fro~ .Southeasthe
Asia, he is "now saying that a certai n number of troops will
remain on the borde r of Vietnam until all prison ers are rt.,lea sed. 11
Citing unnamed commentators in Miami for the view that there
are "inco nsiste ncies and discre panci es" in McGovern's program
as well as in the party platfo rm, Streln ikov assert ed that while
the Senato r advoc ates a reorde ring of prior ities, he has not
"clari fied" his propo sals on arms spend ing and advoc atee the
contin uation of milita ry aid to Israe l, "which fires .the
expan sionis t design s of the tel Aviv extrem ists.II Moreover,
the dispat ch added, the party 's foreig a policy program, which
"does not go beyond certa in partia l bourg eois reform s," is
also "inco nsiste nt."
While noting that obser vers in Miami were trying to "guess the
outcome" in November, PRAVDA's corres ponde nt did not cite any
speci fic specu lation but sugge sted, by his emphas:J.s on
Democratic Party disco rd, lhat McGovern faces a diffic ult
campaign: "The conve ntion has not smoothed o,rer the

powerful indus trial- finan cial circle s, the bloc of George
Wallace of Alabama, .the trade union burea ucrats , and the old

by McGovern." In the same vein, an IZVESTIYA dispa tch from
Miami on the 15th stated that the McGovern candid acy "will most
likely provoke a polar izatio n of politi cal forces in America."
In this conne ction it noted the Repub lican bid to disen~ hanted

US S R - CH I NA - u·, S,
t-\JSCCM SEIZES ON BOOGS·FORD ACCOUNTS OF CHINESE VIEWS

Accounts by Congreaaman Bo11• and Ford of their talks with Chinese
leaders have triggered authoritative reaction from Moacow and
Peking that unde1:11cora1 th~ aenaitive triangular iaaues surround-
ing this year's au-.imitry. Following earlier low••level Soviet
re!)orts on the Cong1:e11men'• atatementa after thl\ir return from
China, a 16 July PRAI/DA article o•re1· the authoritative signature
"I. Alek11androv" cori1plained that the viewa attributed to Chou
En-lai and other Ch1ne1e leader ■ abetted "extreme rightwing
forces" in the current U. s. debate over arms control and Indochina.
The views cited by Aleksandrov were that the Chinese are concerned
over further Soviet •:ni1 development while the United States dis-
arms, and over an Ame1·ican withdrawal from Southeast Asia that
would create a vacuum i~ that region.
A day after the Aleksandrov article appeared, Chou took the occa-
sion of a banquet for a Yem~ni delegation to put on record
Peking's view on the arms control agreements reached at the Moscow
summit. Though he did not mention the Boggs-Ford accounts of
their talks with him or the Soviet reaction, Chou's remarks
broke Peking's long abstinence from comment on the summit agree-
ments and seemed designed to clarify Peking's position amid
speculation aroused by the Congressmen's reports. Previously
Peking had done no more than carry a factual account of the
Soviet-U,S. suDlllit and seemed content to remain noncommittal
on the summit results per se.
Whatever Chou's purpose in raising the issue, Moscow promptly
took note of his speech as in effect confirming the U.S.
Congressmen's accounts. On the 18th TASS commentator Kornilov
cited Chou's remarks on the arms limitation accord as an
example of Chinese pronouncements that "practically confirm"
the Boggs and Ford reports. Kornilov also claimed that the
views attributed to Chou by the Congressmen lifted "the veil
over the real contents" of ;:he Sino-U. S, SUDIJll.it negotiations.
Both Kornilov and a Washington-datelined TASS dispatch on the
18th cited a report that Ford had reaffirmed that the accounts
given earlier by the Congressmen precisely mirrored what they
had been told by Chinese leaders.

ALEKSMOROV ARTICLE The a1,pearance of a PRAVDA article with

an I, Aleksandrov byline, coming during
a period of several months of Soviet restraint on the China ques-
tion, attests to Moscow's senait: ·•tty toward any tendency in the
United States to u&e China for leve·., ~· e in the triangula r relation-
ship, As Alekaandrov put it, the U,S, Congressmen's reports
indicate that "Chou En-lai himselt advises America to continue
the arms race and stay in Asia," According to the article, such
views lend support to a "coalitio n of extreme rightwing forces"
in the "bitter struggle" now taking place in the United States
over such key issues as Indochina and arms control, The article
called it "notewort hy" that Peking has not four,· 1 it ne.ceasary to
deny the Congressmen's accounts, Implicitl y playing up to Hanoi
and other anti-U,S, forces, the article said theee accounts
provide a godse"d for the Pentagon and noted that "not all Asians
think in the same ·,1ay" about U.S. interfere nce in other people's
affairs and about "the barbarous plans and doings of Pentagon
generals, " The article was broadcast by Moscow in Vietnamese,
Korean·, and Mandarin, among other foreign languages ,
The use of an I, Aleksandrov article, though in this case as a
brief commentary rather than as a policy statement , reflects
Moscow's concern over a Sino-u.s. accommodation detrimen tal to
Soviet interests in Asia, The Kornilov TASS commentary made this
point more explicitl y in referring to the Sino-u.s. summit as
background for understan ding the views now attribute d to the
Chinese, Moscow's reac~:lonto th~se views also comes against the
backdrop of its ongoing campaign in behalf of an Asian collectiv e
security system to replace the existing military alliance
structure s. A Soviet broadcast in Mandartn to Southeast Asia
on 1.3 July discussed the Boggs-Ford accounts as showing "Peking's
approval of the U.S. armed forces remaining in the Paci£ ic regions. "
According to the broadc3s t, "those people who were previousl y
doubtful about Peking's attitude toward U.S. military bases in
the Pac if .le region should be quite clear now , . . , ·tor Ford's
statement makes it clear that Peking's approval of the stationin g
of U.S. armed forces in the Pacific region reflects the long-term
strategy which the Chinese leaders have mapped out in collusion
with imperiali sm,"

CHOO EN-LAI SAYS SALT ACCORDS t-MK NEW STAGE IN ARr.s RACE
..
In Peking's firat comment on the Moscow summit results, Chou
En-lai declared in his speech on 17 July that the agreements on
strategic arms limitation were "by no means" a step toward curbing
the arms race but marked "the beginning of a new stage" of the
arms race between the two superpowers, Without mentioning the
United States or the Soviet Union by name, Chou observed that
"the ink on the agreements was hardly dry before one announced
an increase of billionc of dollars for military expenditure and the
other haatllnadto teat new-type weapons, clamoring for seizing
nuclear superiority." He then repeated Peking's standard line
on disarmament by asserting that disarmament, let alone inter-
national peace and security, is "out of the question" in
circumstances in which the superpowers intensify their arms
expansion and war preparations, station forces in other
countries, and practice "nuclear blackmail" against others.
Much as he had used a banquet on 9 July for a South Yemen dele-
gation to call for a negotiated settlement in Vietnam, explaining
that the situation in the Far East remains "far from truly
relaxed" because of the Vietnam war, Chou made the same observation
on the 17th about the international situation as a whole in saying
the superpowers have not ceased their "expansion and aggression"
against other countries. Drawing on another favorite theme, Chou
hailed an increasing awareness among "small and medium-size coun-
tries" that they must heighten their vigilance, unite more closely,
and persevere in struggle against the superpowers.

PEKING STRENGTHENS TIES WllH WEST EUROPEAN COLMlUES

'1n the context of growing coopera tion among Weit European 1tatea
in an expanding Common Market aa well aa the developing East-
West detente on the contine nt, Peking baa made a aucceaa:f.on of
moves to improve it& leverag e by strength ening ties with the
three main West European powers, The Chinese have accorded a
friendly receptio n to delegat ions from Britain , Prance, and
West Germany while continu ing favorab le coverage of developments
that reflect greater unity in West Europe aa a counterweight to
the superpowers. At the same time Peking baa muted its former
hostili ty toward detente trendo in Europe that would serve to
free the Soviets for applyin g greater pressur e on China. Peking
has yet to co11111ent on recent East-West agreements on Europe,
remaining content thus far with a factual NCNA account on 5 June
of the signing of the quadril ateral accord on Berlin and the
exchange of instrum ents of ratific~ tion of the FRG's treaties
with the Soviet Union and Poland,
The first in the success ion of West European visitor s to Peking
was that of British Underse cretary for Foreign and Commonwealth
Affairs Anthony Royle last month, The highest -rankin g British
officia l to visit the PRC, Royle had a "friendl y" talk with
Foreign Ministe r Chi Peng-fe i on 4 June. He also had talks with
Vice Foreign Ministe r Chiao Kuan-hua and Assista nt Foreign
Ministe r Chang Wen-chin, who attended a banquet at which British
and Chinese officia ls toasted the "growth of relation s" between
the two countri es, '£he two countri es had agreed in March to
raise their relation s to the ambassa dorial level.
In accord with the warm state of Sino-French relatio ns, the
French delegat ion was on the level of Foreign Ministe r Schumann,
who arrived on 6 July, Schumann held extensi ve discuss ions
with Chou En-lai and Chi Peng-fe i, and he was accorded the rare
honor as a foreign ministe r to be receive d by Mao. Unlike the
other meeting s, which Peking uniformly describe d as "friend ly,"
Schumann's convers ation with Mao was charact erized by NCNA as
"friend ly and frank," indicat ing signific ant points of
diverge nce of views, At a farewel l banquet on 10 July Chi
called the visit "fruitfu l and satisfac tory" and said it was a
"major event" in S:f!\o-French relatio ns, though he also
acknowledged diverge nt views on "some interna tional issues,"
Typical ly, the thrust of Peking' s comment during the visit was
directe d against "hegemony and power politic s," though the
Chinese deferre d to French aensiti vities ~y omittin g their
customary referen ces to the two superpowers,

Chiao Kuan-hua, speaking at the French embassy celebration of

rrance'a nati~nal day on 14 July, said that during Schumann's
visit the two aides h~d ~trengthened mutual understanding and
made concrete arrangements for the development of economic,
cultural, scientific, and technological exchange. In the same
speech Chiao enunciated a line having relevance to negotiations
on European security when he declared, in a passage expres■ ing
opposition to hegemony by the superpowers, chat relations
between countries "with different or identical social systems
should all be baaed" on the principles of peaceful coexistence,
He exp:w:r.c1sed satisfaction that France and Ch-fna have "common
grounda on these major queations of principle." In the ,?R.C-
Netherlands conmunique of 16 May raising their relations to the
ambassadorial level, the Dutch had explicitly interpret~d the
principle ■ of peaceful coexistence as implying noninterf~rence
in internal affairs not only between countries of different
systems but "equally between countries belonging to an alliance
and having identical or similar socio-political systems," In
the communique Peking said it "appreciates this stand,"
Marking the first visit by a West German official to Peking,
the chairman of the Bundestag's foreign affairs committee,
Gerhard Schroeder, a former minister, arrived on 1S July at the
invitation of the Chinese People's Institute of Foreign
Affairs--a device used for visitors from countries not having
relations with the PR.C, •. welcoming banquet was attended by
NPC Vice Chairman Kuo Mo-jo and Chiao Kuan-hua, who earlier had
a "friendly" talk with Schroeder. Schroc..der has "8aid he
expects to discuss European and intemational questions as well
as bilateral matters, possibly opening the way for establishment
of formal relat:l.ons.
Peking in the meantime has indicated to East Germany that it
wishes to have reasonably good relations with that country, NCNA
reported that the newly appointed PRC ambassador to the GDR had
a "friendly" talk with State Council Chairman Ulbricht when he
presented his credentials on 3 July, Atypically, NCNA noted
that "all members" of the Chinese embassy's diplomatic staff

DPRk TREATY ANNIVERSARIES RECEIVE I.Dt4-l<EY <ESERVIW:E
The 11th annive rsaries of the signing of the treatie s of friend ship,
cooper ation, and mutual assista nce between the DPRK and the USSR
(i; ::uly) and the PRC (11 July) were observ ed at a level comparable
to that of 1970, the last previou s nondec ennial observa nce. Thia
year, however, the observance was notabl y subdued in tone,
reflect ing the more relaxed atmosphere produced by the past
year's developments in Sino-u .s. relatio ns and the thaw in North-
South Korean relatio ns.* Attacks on the United States in this
year's observa nce were consid erably muffle d and there was no
referen ce to the South Korean people 's "struggle" agains t an
oppres sive regime.
Soviet comment on the annive rsary routin ely suppor ted Pyongyang's
call for the withdra wal of U.S. troops from the South and for
"peace ful unific ation," but there was no mention of UNCURK. In
observ ing the anniver .sary Moscow made no mention of the 4 July
North-South Korea joint statem ent on reunif ication , a subjec t
on which the Soviet s have yet to comment. Pyongyang media,
however, reporte d Soviet speake rs as welcoming the statem ent.
The Chines e, who have author itative ly welcomed the agreement,

agreement strippe d the United States of all pretex ts for
interve ntion in Korean affairs and demanded that the United
States withdraw its troops , th~ugh there was no mention of
UNCURK. The DPRK ambassador in Peking , however, used the
occasio n to demand the withdrn·~al of U.S. troops "that fly

of UNCURK.

receptio n, a somewhat lower-ra nking offici~ l than in the past;
normall y the receptio n had been attended by Pak Song-ch ol, a
vice premier at the time,
Moscow describe d the treaty in the customary terms as providin g
a basis for the friendsh ip and coopera tion of the two peoples , as
safegua rding the "social ist gains" of the two countri es, and as
an instrum ent of peece in the Far East, Typical ly, Moscow avoided
the tlteme of u.s. "war prepara tions" and "provoc ations" in Korea,
althoug h Pyongyang was charact eristica lly more polemic al, So Chol
said that the treaty is a manifes tation of the determi nation of the
two people to "firmly defend the security of the two countri es and
the gains of the revoluti on from the encroachment of the imperia lists,
headed by the U,S, imperia lists, and to defend world peace," A •
similar remark by the DPRK ambassador was reported by Radio Moscow
in a Korean-language broadca st, The NODONG SINMUN editori al article ,
which said that the treaty "dealt a heavy blow to the imperia list
reactio naries headed by the U.S. imperia lists," assailed "the
crimes of U.S. imperial ism" in Korea, Indochin a, and the Middle
East.
Comment on both sides was conside rably more restrain ed than
last year's, Although Moscow had general ly avoided associa ting
itself with Pyongyang's bellico sity and had not specifi cally
denounced the United States, it had characte rized the treaty as
"a serious warning to those who have not abandoned attempt s to
operate from a position of strength " and as "a resolute warning
to those who like playing with fire." North Korean speak,•re had
describ ed the treaty as an instrum ent f,,r curbing the "crili,in al
maneuvers" of the United States at a time when its "aggree s1\ ~·
and war provoca tive maneuvers are being intensif ied," and they
had called upon the two countri es to "furthe r consolid ate" their
allianc e and "faithfu lly dischar ge the obligati ons tqey assumed
under the treaty" in the face of i11tensi fied U.s. and Japanes e

TREATY WITH PRC The anniver sary of the treaty with the PRC
was observed much l:Lke the one in .1970, with
tanquet s hosted by the respect ive ambassadors, greeting s exchanged
'ly friendsh ip associa tions, and a NODONG SINMUN editor-f.al article .
Pak Song-chol attended the PRC ambassa dor's banquet in Pyongyang,
at which the KPA Chief of Slaff spoke, The DPRK ambassa dor's
banquet this year was attended by Politbu ro members Yeh Chien-y ing
and Yao Wen-yuan and was addresse d by L:L Te-sheng, the politic al
chief of the PLA,
The restrain t marking Peking' s comment was particu larly evident
in the omission of attacks on the United States by name as a
threat to the two communist allies. Li Te-aheng said blandly
that the treaty embodies "the great friendsh ip" forged by the
Chinese and Korean people in protract P.d struggle s against "the
common enemies ," and that it "demon strates their firm determi na-
tion to fight in unity for the common cause," The Chinese
friendsh ip associa tion message similar ly referred to "connnon
enemies ," in contras t to the Korean message's specific mention
of "Japane se and U.S. imperia lism" as those enemies. DPRK
speaker s asserted that the treaty contr:Lbutes to "defend ing the
security of the two countrie s and their socialis t gains from the
encroachment of the .imperi alists, headed by the U.S. imperia lists,
and preserv ing peace in Asia and the rest of the wor.ld," The
NODONG SINMUN editoria l article was still stronger., s&ying that the
treaty "frustra tes the maneuvers of the U,S, imperia lists and
their stooges for the provoca tion of a new war."
This year's connnent from both sides was conside rably blander
than in 1971, when the Chinese joined with the Nor.th Kor.ean,, in
saying their treaty was directed against "U,S, imperia list
aggress ion" and explici tly cited the treaty provisio n committing
them to provide militar.y assistan ca in case of attack, The
Chinese last year accused the United States of carrying out
provoca tions against the DPRK. and of occupying Taiwan, and the
North Koreans air,,d charges that the United States sent "armed
agents, armed spy ships, and high-al titude reconna issance
planes" into the DPRK and conduct ed armed attacks along the
demilit arized zone. Last year Peking briefly recalled that
the Chinese People' s Volunte ers (CPV) helped the Koreans during
the Korean War, and Pyongyang thanked the Chinese for doing
so, There was no mention of the CPV this year except in a low-
level PEOPLE'S DAILY article by a "worker s' conaent ator group."

Tlae 10-12 July Moacow seeaion of the Council for Economic Mutual
A11iatance (CEMA) "unanimously" acc,,pted Cuba aa a full member
of the Soviet bloc organization-- a move presumably aought by
Moacow and ita pa.rtners in the hopt1 of achieving greater leverage
in the management of the Cuban econwmy and introducing greater
diacipline into Cuban economic planninij through the rr..achinery of
CEMA integration, Cuban CP Secretariat member and Minister
Without Portfolio Carlos Rafael Rodriguez, attending along with
the member countries' prim~ ministe:s, acknowledged Cub&'s ~art
of the bargain when he decl3red over Moscow television on
11 July that Cuba would "1ha1.e to the full extent the responsi-
bility demat\ded by" CEMA intel!;ration, The new move to enhance
the Soviet role fn Cuban economic planning carries forwar.d the
apparent intention behind the formation of the Soviet-Cuban
Intergovernmen tal Commission for Eco1.omic and Scientific-Tec hnical
Cooperation in December 1970,
Final details of the admission of Cuba, which has held "observer"
status at CEMA gatherings since September 1962, were evidently
worked out during Castro's 26 June-5 July stay in the USSR
following his visits to the six East European CEMA member states,
Castro did not mention CEMA in public speeches during hi~ recent
tour of the Soviet bloc, But Havana media on the 17th 4uoted
Rodriguez in his CEMA session speech aa c!~ing a atat~ment made by
Castro in East Europe to the effect that "national egoism is
incompatible with socialism inside and outside of the count1·y,"
to which Rodriguez added hls own connnent that Cuban economic
development could not be achieved "without Cuba joining the
process of socialist integration." And Hungarr's Premier Fo.:!k,
in an interview with the Hungarian news agency MTI before leaving
Moscow on the 12th, obser\'ed that Cuba's application for CEMA
membership was "probably contributed to" by Castro's East

had taken place in a similar context of Sino-Sov iet rivalry.
Fock, in the MTI interview , connnented that Cuba's admission now
waa baaed on "the relevant proviaion of our integrati on document
according to which any non-CEMA-member country may participa te
fully or partially in the implementation of the comprehensive
program." He expreaaed the convictio n that "in the coming years
several countries " would either apply for memberahip or for the
opportun ity to participa te "in certain provision a" of the
integrati on program.
More specific ally, Cub~'s admission serv~s the propaganda
purpose of projectin g the ultimate expansion of CEMA into Latin
America. Typical of Moscow's brief statemen ts welcoming Cuba'a
admission was PRAVDA's editorial comment on the 15th that
"states of three continen ts an now members of CEMA." A
panelist in the Moscow domestic 8ervice commentators' roundtab le
the next day remarked in a simi;ar vein that CEMA "from now on
will unite the fraternal socialist countries of three continen ts."
A domestic service broadcas t of a recording of Rodriguez' Moscow
TV speech of 11 July, witb overlaid translati on in Ruseian,
represent ed the Cuban delegate as noting that Cuba was "the first
country of Latin America" to take part in CEMA integrati on. And
a report of the speech broadcast by Radio Moscow to Brazil
attribute d to Rodriguez the more expansive statement that "we
shall incorpora te our America- -Latin America- -in the activitie s
of" CEMA integrati on. A report of his speech to the GEMA session,
broadcast by Radio Havana to the Americas and published in the
party organ GRANMA on the 17th, quoted Rodriguez as stating that
with Cuba's admission to CEMA "Latin America would enter the world
socialist economy."
According to the communique on the CEMA session carried in Soviet
media on 12 July, the other main business was discussio n of the
implementation of the long-rang e economic integrati on program
adopted at the last ses&ion in Buchares t in July 1971, with
emphasis on cooperati on in planning, the scientifi c-techni cal
sphere, and the electric power, chemical , and engineeri ng
industrie s. The session was marked by the attendanc e of Yugoslav

further step in an alleged Soviet campaign to tie the economies
of "Poland, Czechoslovukia, Bulgaria, and the other revisionist
countries" to that of the USSR. It notably refrained from
directly pinning che revi~ionist label on Hungary and took the
occasion to draw propaganda capital from the recent tensions in
Moscow-Budapest economic relations. Thus it charged that "how
immoderate the Soviet revisionists are in plundering these
countries is also revealed by the position of Hungarian bauxite
production," adding that "in bauxite production Hungary occupies
second place in the world" but "has no aluminum industry of its
own." Hungary, the broadcast said, must send the bauxite "about
3,000 kilometers" to a processing plant near Stalingrad, and
the USSR sells the processed aluminum to Hungary at a "capitalist
profit."

The 24th Congress of the Communist Party of the Netherlan ds (CPN)
has strongly reiterate d the party's claim to "complete aut.,nomy"
in the internati onal movement and pointedly rebuked the CPSU for
interferi ng in CPN internal affairs and attemptin g to alienate
the Dutch party's rank and file from its duly elected leadersh ip,
The documents of the 26-28 May congress in Amsterdam. recently
available in translati on. sustain what has become a public polemic
between the CPSU and the small independent-minded Dutch party,
Specific ally. tha documents may be read as the CPN's response to
a PRAVDA Observer arti~le of 12 May which charged the Dutch party
with rebuffing CPSU efforts to reestabli sh interpart y relations ;

Dutch CP betrayed Moscow's acute sensitivi ty to public criticism
from othl·r parties and reflected • at the same time, the capacity
of Y small but vocal party to act as an irritant toward Moscow
at the p1·esent juncture in internati onal communist relations ,*
The "unanimously" adopted resolutio n of the CPN congress , published
in the party organ DE WAARHELD on 29 May, spelled out the party's
view of its role in interpart y relations , It proclaimed that the
CPN is for "cooperat ion in concrete actions with all communist

"relation ships with other parties must be maintaine d and regulated
only from executive committee to executive committe e"--a statemen t

The PRAVDA Obeerver article, appearing shortly before the

congress, had made a pointed appeal to the Dutch rank and file:
"The assertfon that the CPSU is unwilling to have contacts with
the CPN is completely untrue and is capable only of misleading
broad strata of CPN members; however, such a position hardly
meets the interests of the Dutch communists," Stressing that the
policy of the Dutch CP ae approved by the congress must be
enforced by the CPN Executive Committee "under all circumstances,"
the congress resolution cauUoned that the "the entire party is
obliged to use the greatest vigilance to protect the unity and
policy of the party against hostile interference,"
Alluding to the 3plit in the international movement generated
by the Sino-Soviet conflict, the resolution asserted that the CPN
is for a "principled inteu1ational discussion on the basis of
equality on the problems of Man:ism-Leninism in these times,"
adding that "no exclusive attitude in regard to other parties
may be taken in thP.se discussions," The issue of relations
between che Dutch CP and the Chinese Connnunist Party was raised
directly in the resolution's statement that "the CPN in past
years h '3 steadfastly refused to participate it the 'anti-Mao
campaign' because of its established rule not to comment on
domestic ..:onditions in socialist countr:r.es on which it has no
factual information," CPN Chairman Hoekstra, in his main
report to the congress on 26 May, also said that all communists
must unite against "any intrigues Nixon may try in order to
exploit differences between the Soviet and Chinese communist
parties and to sew confusion; therefore, we must come around to
a new basis of international cooperation and unity of action,"
Hoekstra then remarked that the resolution shows how this "new"
unity can be achieved,
CPSU MESSAGE PRAVDA published a two-paragraph CPSU message
to the congress on 26 May which conveyed a
picture of disunity in CPN ranks by pointedly wishing the CPN
"unity of its ranks on the basis of the principles of
Marxism-Leninism, proletarian internationalism, development
of ties with friendly connnunist parties , , , ." Neither
DE WAARHEID's reportage nor available versions of the congress
speeches, however, acknowledgcad any foreign party congratJlatory
messages, The congress resolution explained the absence of •
foreign party delegations as well as the failure to acknowledge
the CPSU message: "It is apparent that participation of guest
delegations at congresses and written greetings are.not
practical for the exchange of opinions under present conditions,
Therefore, for the time being, our party is giving up this
practice,"

GERMANY
IZVESTIYA BACKS FINNISH PROPOSAL FOR REU.-IONS Willi F~~, GDR
The Mosco~ press has for the first time publicly endorsed the
Finnish Government's long-standing proposal to start discussions
with both German states aimed at the establishment of diplomatic
relations. A 16 July IZVESTIYA article by Yuriy Goloshubov took
note of Helsinki's latest public renewal of its proposal, on
10 July, commenting that it "merits a positive appraisal" and
"ought to be considered against the background of the overall
process of detente takjng place in Europe," Arguing that
recognition of the GDR would b-,i "an important contribution"
to the continuing process of lessening tensions in Europe, the
article maintained that this was why the Finnish proposal "ad
evoked a "great response" and had acquired "such urgency , "
Nothing that "unfortunately " there are "voices" in the FRG and
in the West which "are trying to convince the public of the
'prematureness ' of implementing the Finnish proposal," the
article ~oncluded that "broad sections of the West Europe public
are convinced" that the Finnish initiative "fully accords with
the spirit and demand of the times."
At the time of the original Finnish Government proposal of
10 September 1971, both the East German and Soviet media had
reacted with extreme caution.• At that time both Moscow and
East Berlin carefully avoided any reference to the Finnish
call for negotiations on the settlement of damages caused by
German troops in Finland in 1944-45, and both ignored Helsinki's
stipulation that its treaties with the two German states must
come into force simultaneously --the first proviso being abhorrent
to East Germany because of its l~ng-standing refusal to accept
any responsibility for damages inflicted by the Germans in
World War II, and the second giving Bonn power to delay Finnish
recognition of the GDR until ite own conditions are met. Other
elements of the 1971 draft treaties submitted to Bonn and East
Berlin, as part of the Finnish "package deal" to be negotiated
along with the establishment of diplomatic relat1uns, included
recognition of Finland's "policy of neutrality" by both German
states and renunciation of force or threat of force in relations •
with Finland.

In reporting on a visit to Finland by SED Politburo member Axen

in November, East Berlin media cont~nued to avoid mention of the
German reparations issue, However, ~en was reported by Helsinki
media to have said that it was diffictJlt to appraise the grounds
for Finland's claim to compenution for war damages and that
the important thing was to move ahead with negotiations on
normalizing relation~. During this visit East Berlin media
acknowledged for the first time that the 1971 Finnish proposal
to establish diplomatic relations with the GDR was contingent
on simultaneous establishment of FRG diplomatic relations with
Finland.
Moscow and East Berlin have apparently reacted more favorably to
Helsinki's 10 July proposal because it now seems to separate the
"other issues" from the establishment of diplomatic relations,
though still calling for negotiations on the other questions
simultaneously with negotiations on diplomatic relations.
GDR REACTION The 10 July proposal was advanced at the
beginning of the annual Baltic Week festivities
in Rostock--a forum that gave East German spokesmen ample
opportunity to welcome the Finnish Government's initiati ✓e,
On the official level, the GDR Council of Ministers on the 12th,
according to ADN, instructed Foreign Minister Winzer "to take
the necessary measures for conducting the negotiations proposed
by the Finnif'h Government for the c.omplete normalization of
relations between the GDR and Finland," Promptly on the 13th,
ADN reported that the acting head of the GDR trade mission in
Helsinki, Nestler, had presented the GDR's reply, which affirmed
thr, GDR's "repeatedly expressed conviction that the establish-
ment of diplomatic relations between the two states corresponds
to the interests" of the two states and of Europe in general.
The reply said the GDR "sincerely" welcomed the Finnish proposal
and declared "its readiness to conduct negotiations with repre-
sentatives of the Finnish Government on the establishment of
diplomatic relations,"
East Berlin has not acknowl.edged the fact that the renewed
Finnish initiative called for the simultaneous opening of talks
on the "other" matters outlined in the original 1971 proposal.
TASS, on the other ha~d, did note in its 10 July report that the
Finnish Government said "agreement should be reached on the
conmencement of a discussion of other questions connected with
the full rJettlement of relations" with the two German states.

The latest satellite photography of Tyuratam

have been several suah tests sinae late
last .yearj and in eaah instanae, the mis-
sile apparently was destroyed immediately
after lift-off. If this· phase of testing
has proaeeded satisfaatorily, firings from
Tyuratam to the Kamahatka Peninsula aould
begin at any time. About two years of
flight testing will be required before
the missile is ready for deployment. We
believe the new ICBM aould be equipped
with MIRVs and that it wi ZZ be ins ta ZZed
in the new large silos aurrently under
aonstruation at five SS-9 aomplexes.

CUBA
A carefully worded resolution on Fidet Castro's

redent trip issued by the Communist Party central
committee indicates that the Cuban leadership is
less than satisfied with certain key aspects of
Soviet policy. The choice of the central committee
to make the statement--the committee has met only
twice sinae 1965--indiaates that Castro wishes to
emphasize the unity of the Cuban leadership as
well as the importance of the statement.
Havana's major problem is with Moscow's policy of
detente with the US, The resolution states that
the "struggle against imperialism" must bi:3 "based
upon the full awareness that imperialism's apparent
aooperation with any truly revolutionary process
is deceptive and false in the long run."
Havana's displeasure is primarily linked to what
it views as a lack of Soviet support for North Viet~
nam. The resolution declares that victory in Viet-
nam requires "international solidarity" and points
to the statements on Vietnam made by Fidel during
his trip. In Poland,. for example, he affirmed that
"today Vietnam is the supreme test of proletarian
internationalism ... the supreme test of the prin-
ciples of Marxism-Leninism." Although the Cuban
leader may be genuinely aoncerned with the fate of
Vietnam, he is even more concerned over its pos-
sible implications for Cuba's security.
The resolution also hints that Havana is upset over
Soviet attempts to press Cuba into more orthodox
eaonomic policies in exchange for increased eao-
nomia assistance. It asserts that assistanae from
socialist countries is a "moral right" of those
nations "where truly revolutionary changes are be-
ing made."
Despite his displeasure, Castro has few alternatives
to continued close cooperation with Moscow. Cuba
is almost totally dependent on the Soviet Union,
and we do not foresee that Fidel will attempt to
alter this relationship significantly at this time.

the Soviets-on 19 July informed the Jorqanians
that they will be delighted to receive the King at
any time. Husayn originally had hoped to persuade
the Soviets to support his West Bank federation
proposal, which he put forth last March, but the
acrimonious Egyptian and. fedayeen reaction to his
pla11 apparently forced the Soviets to putoff his
trip. The timing and apparent urgency of-the re.,..
sponse, in the aftermath of events in Egypt, may
well foreshadow additional Soviet·efforts to shore·
up relations with the other Arab states.

Laos: Lao Communist leader Souphanouvong's

latest message to Prime Minister Souvanna contains
no new proposals for settling the war. The letter
refers to earlier.- Communist proposals and repeats
the Communist line that any progress toward a
settlement depends on a US bombing halt throughout
the country. It does not rule out, ·however, addi~
tional preliminary contacts between Souvanna and
Souk Vongsak, the Communists' envoy.
Thailand: The appointment of Field Marshal

Thanem as supreme commander of the armed forces
has been extended for one year. T~is will delay
other changes in the top leadership and postpone
significant changes in Thailand~s internal and
foreign policies. The extension, the second granted
Thanom since he reached the retirement age of 60
last year, indicates that the deputy chairman of the
ruling National Executive Council, General Praphat,
still lacks sufficient popular support to move into
the number one spot. The intense rivalry between
Thanom's and·Praphat's supporters, which tends to
have an immobilizing effect on government operations,-
is likely to continue ..

, ..

Since the early weeks of the US air interdicti on
program, Hanoi has tried to convince the world that
North Vietnam's elaborate dike system of water con-
trol is _a direct and deliberate target of US bombing.
We now have photograp hic coverage of the Red River
Delta as of mid-July which_ena bles us to assess
Hanoi's claims. It provides evidence of scattered
and inconsequ ential damage done by bombs directed
at nearby military targets, but in no case of seri-
ous or deliberate attack.
North Vietnam's Water Control System
North Vietnam's elaborate network of dikes,

dams, and locks controls the water of the heavily
populated Red River Delta. The delta farmland de-
pends on irrigation during the dry months and is
endangered by flooding in the wet months. The coun-
try's major transporta tion waterways --the Red River,
the Thai Binh River, and the connecting Canal des
Rapides and Canal des Bambous-- link the principal
urban centers. Fertilize r, foodstuffs , petroleum~
and other commoditi es are moved, in part, by these
waterways , as is the coal mined in the Hon Gai and
Cam Pha areas. Southern North Vietnam also contains
rivers.nec essitating a.dike and lock system for
water control and navigation , but the system is less
important than that of the delta.
Dikes to control flooding and the course of

the waterways are most fully developed along the
Red River. The Red River system begins near Viet
Tri, only 43 feet above sea level, although about
100 miles inland. The great amount of silt brought
down from the mountains and deposited along the river
beds in the delta has raised the waterways above the
surroundin g countrysid e in many places and requires
a constant elevation of the restrainin g walls. In
some areas--pa rticularly around Hanoi--the height
of the dikes reaches 40 feet. Some are as broad as
80 feet at the flood line and spread to 200 feet at
. the base. A secondary system between 4 and 22 feet
high running parallel to the main dikes is designed
to localize and minimize damage if the primary dikes
are breached. A tertiary system of smaller dikes
divides the rice-growi ng plains into compartme nts,
assists irrigation , and controls the level of small
streams and local waterways . In addition, small
natural or m~n-made dikes along the coast keep out
brackish sea water.
(continued ) .
Al

Dams and locks play a lesser role. Only a few

large dams are constructed of concrete with gates
to permit passage of watercraft, and only one major
waterway in the Red River Delta has navigation locks
to control water levels and facilitate transport.
Recurring Floods
The rivers rise to a seasonal peak during July
and August, when unusually heavy rains frequently
cause breaches in the levees. Extensive floods and
destruction to property and agricultural crops re-
sult. Although there have been only a few major
breaches since the mid-1940s, minor breaks occur
almost every year.
The floods of last August rank with the most
serious ever recorded. Four major breaches occurred
in the primary dikes along the Red River. An esti-
mated 1.1 million acres of riceland--a quarter of
the country's rice acreage--were seriously flooded
and the entire crop in that area destroyed. Storms
took out a half-mile section of a levee outside
Hanoi and closed the railroad north to Dong Dang.
The .area of heavy flooding continued to expand through
late September, probably because prolonged soaking
and high water pressure had undermined the secondary
dike systems.
Apart from immediate rice losses, the floods
produced extensive longer term physical damage.
The enormous force of water unleashed through breaches
in the primary dikes caused widespread erosion far
beyond obvious scouring effects near the breaks.
Long stretches of irrigation canals were cut, and
the press reported many washed-out pumping stations.
Flood water everywhere deposited silt in drainage
ditches. The prolonged inundation during the floods
may have caused subtle undermining of the primary
dike systems that will not show until late this
summer. The possibility that the dike system has
been weakened thus adds to this year's flooding
threat.
North Vietnam's water control system includes
a large number of widely dispersed individual com-
ponents which could be substantially affected only
by a large-scale, coordinated air offensive. Such
attacks would be necessary against specific locks,
dams, and dike areas, and bomb damage would have
effect only during the relatively short periods of
high water. Even then, the North Vietnamese, long
accustomed to battling against floods, could be ex-
pected to act promptly to mend breaches in the sys-
tem.
(continued)
A2

Damage to the locks would have little effect

on either North Vietnam's transport or its water
control systems. Inland craft could be diverted
to waterways not dependent on locks, and some car-
goes could be sent by the many alternative land
routes. Accidental bomb damage during the 1965-68
period made some locks inoperative, but had little
effect on water transport or flooding in the area.
Similarly, breaching of dams, even during periods
of high water, would not cause significant disrup-
tion because most are small and easily repaired.
Dikes are particularly resistant to bomb damage.
Those in the primary system could be breached only
by a series of overlapping craters across the entire
top of a dike, and the lips of the craters would
have to be sufficiently lower than the river surface
to initiate the flow and subsequent scouring action
of water rushing through the breach. The dikes
along the Red River near Hanoi are approximately
80 feet wide at the flood line.
North Vietnam's official press agencies and
radio services have repeatedly described alleged US
bombing attacks on the dike system. In April and
May, the North Vietnamese made more than 40 specific
allegations, and on 30 June the official press quoted
the Deputy Minister of Hydraulics as saying that 20
bombing attacks had been made on dikes during that
month. Foreign diplomats, newsmen, and, most re-
cently, actress Jane Fonda have been escorted to
dikes to view·damage-'"'.'most of it around Hai Duong,
southeast of Hanoi.
A detailed examination has been made of photog- 25X1
raphy of mid-July of the North Vietnamese Red River
Delta. No flooding has been identified resulting
from bombing. Dikes cratered by bombs were detected
at 13 locations, four. of which were just north of
Hai Duong. None of the damage has been in the Hanoi
area, where destruction of the dikes would result in
the greatest damage to North Vietnam's economy and
logistics effort. Nearly all the damage has been
scattered downstream from Hanoi, as well as down-
stream from the areas of major breaks resulting from
the 1971 floods. Most craters are on primary dikes,
with the others on the secondary system.
A3

25X1
Because a large number of North Vietnamese
dikes serve as bases for roadways, the maze they
create throughout the delta makes it almost inevitable
that air attacks directed against transportation tar-
gets cause scattered damage to dikes.
There are no signs of destruction of vital dike
portions stretching to a length of several kilometers--
as reported by Hanoi-based newsmen. In comparison
to the dikes, the craters are small, and no flooding
has occurred as a result of the damage. Although
water levels are not yet at their highest, the ab-
sence of leakage through the craters indicates that
damage was limited.
The bomb craters verified by photography can
be repaired easily with a minimum of local labor
and equipment--a crew of less than 50 men with
wheelbarrows and hand tools could repair in a day
the largest crater observed. Repairs to all the
dikes could be completed within a week, as the nec-
essary equipment is available throughout the delta.
Local labor historically mobilizes to strengthen
and repair dikes to avoid serious flooding. An
occasional bo~ falling on a dike does not. add sig-·
nificantly to the burden of annual repair work nor-
mally required. North Vietnam must, however, com-
plete the repair of damage caused by the 1971 floods
before next month when this year's rainy·season will·
reach its peak.

Hanoi has continued to relea ■e virtually daily statements by the
DRV Foreign Ministry spoke ■man denouncing U.S. air strikes. but
there are fewer charges now of attacks on water conservancy
projects. and current comment points to good progress in dike
repair work. Further use haa been made of conments attribuied to
former U.S. attor1,ey general Ramsey Clark and members of th~
International C0111111i1sion for Inquiring into U.S. War Crimes to
buttress claims th11t U.S. air strikes are aimed at civilia".
targets.
The DRV delegate at the 154th session of the Paris talks devoted
mosc of his ~tatement to a protest against U.S. bombing. while
the PRG's Mme. Dinh attacked the Thieu government and offered an
explanatio~~ of the communiat proposal for the formation of a
government of national concord. Har.oi took disparaging note of
Administration efforts to capitalize on "publirity about the secret
Paris talks and rumors about a new U.S. peace proposal." but it
did not report the 14 Auguat Kissinger-Le Due Tho meeting and
has not yet mentioned Le Due Tho' a departure. for Hanoi on the 16tL1.
While avoiding comment on iasues affecting Chinese interests,
Peking has again added its voice to charges that the United States
ie bombing DRV dikes. A PEOPLE'S DAILY editorial on the 13th,
seconding the 8 August DRV protest. expressed "burning indignation"
over the U.S. bombing but made no mention of Chinese support for
the war effort. NCNA has publicized statements about bombing of
the dikes by various foreign visitors to the DRV, including Jane
Fonda, but has yet to mention Ramsey Clark.
Routine Moscow comment has continued to assail the U.S. bombing
of the DRV along established lines and to call on the United States
to accept a political solution, Mos·cow has br:l.efl:, r.eported the
international investigating connnission's activities in the DRV
and during its stopover in the Soviet capital, noting some of the
() remarks by ,Jelegation members as well as some of the remarks Hanoi
has attributed to Ramsey Clark condemning alleged U.S. strikes at
dikes and other c:f ••ilian targets.
INTERNATIONAL WAR CRltES TEN-1 MEETS PREMIER, CONCLUIES VISIT

Ha~oi has continued to exploit ~omments attributed to former U.S.

12 Auaust, Hiahli&hts of Clark's activities included a two-hour

interview on the 10th with 10 U,S, prisoners of war and a
two-day visit to Thanh Hoa Province, rep,,.:tedly the target of
recent severe U.S. bombings, where he listened to personal
accounts of the air strikes, The team was also received on
11 August by Premier Pham Van Dong in his first reported public
appearance in three montha--an event which received frontpage
attention in Hanoi papers, complete with "big-sized photos,"
according to VNA'a review of the Hanoi press of 13 and 14 August,*
Clark's comments on the POW'a, briefly quoted by Hanoi radio on
12 August, ,tressed that they were in good health, that they were
getting reaular medical and dental care, and that "there were no
prohibition s or restriction s on the prisoners," The broadcast
claimed that Clark contrasted the humaneness of the North Vietnamese
to the "inhuman and brutal" treatment alleeedly meted out to the
Vietnamese people throuah the U, S, bcmb ing of the Nor th carrier.i
out on President Nixon's orders, Claiming that Clark had expressed
determinati on to inform the American people of what is actually
happening in the war• the report quoted h:lm as declaring that "no
matter what the reason or the objectiv~s of the bombing, it is
imposaible to justify it before mankind's conscience ,"
Hanoi propagandists have portrayed Clark's 8-9 August visit to
Thanh Hoa as a fac~-findin g mission to expose, on film and tape,
the "barbarous crimes of the bloodthirst y Nixou clique," Hanoi
radio on the 13th typically des~ribed Clark as Bstonished when
confronted with evidence of American bombing of nonmilitary
targets in Thanh Hoa, The same broadcast claimed that Clark was
profoundly moved by the determins;.tion of the Vietnamese people to
maintain "their beautiful way of life" in the face of the bombing,
as well as by their friendly treatment of him, an American,

In an interview with a Hanoi radio reporter, recounted by the

radio on the 14th, Clark waa reported to have characteriz ed
U,S, bombing as not only inhuman but also "a very stupid act"
which "cannot subdue th• Vietnamese people," Remarks
attributed to Clark at the beainning of the interview refuted
Senator Goldwater's recent su11estion that some damage to the
dikes may have been caused by North Vietn8ll1ese SAM's falling
back on their own territory, Clark was quoted as asserting
thot "it is sheer nonsl!i.tse to say that this damage has been

findings to former Ir1ah parliamenta rian Sean MacBride: 1) the
bombings were intentional and deliberate; 2) the targets hit
"would significant ly affect the hydraulic system" and could cause
floodina; 3) the areas being bombed are heavily populated
aari-:ultura l regiona; 4) the methods of destruction used "make
effective repair difficult and unsatisfact ory"; and 5) the
damaged dikes observed by the team are not roads or part of a
road network and are removed from military targets, MacBride
reportedly concluded that these points "go far beyond the
question of the legality of the bombing of North Vietnam. Th,?y
involve flagrant violations of the laws of humanity and of
The Hague and Geneva convention s,"
HANOI CALLS FOR GREATER VIGILANCE, LAUDS DIKE REPAIR CJIMPAIGN

The volume of attention Hanoi has given the dike i~sue diminished
markedly during the past week, Except for a charge in the foreign
ministry spokesman's statement of the 11th that three dike
sections had been hit and incident~l mentions in a few other
articles, the only li&jor propaganda attention t~ the subject came
in two radio articles broadcast by Hanoi on the llth--one in the
domestic servire and one in English to Southeast Asia, Both
sounded a note of optimism, pointing with satisfactio n to t. .•.a
nearly complete repair of all dikes and dams allegedly damaged by
U,S, bombing,* The domestic broadcast cited the Chu and Ma river
* Positive evaluationa of the campaign to repair water conservancy

projects first emerged at the end of last month. A 25 Jul;, NHAN
DAN editorial, for example, atypically predicted that the coming
higb •t•r season could be dealt with satisfactor ily and claimed
that "because of the early work on the embankments, our dikes are
now big, hi&h, and solid." For a more detailed discussion see

dikes and another dike in Thanh Hoa, as well as the system of

dikes in the Nam Sach area of Jtai Hung, as having been
repaired; all of these dikes had been spotlighted in Hanoi
propaganda as alleged targets of U.S. bo~bing raids. The
English-language item, focusing on Haiphong and the southern
provinces of the DRV, claimed repair of "almost all" dike
sections as well as the building of a new sea dike in Quang
Dinh Province and said that Haiphong had completed ite semiannual
earthwork tasks five to io days early, with a fourfold increase
over the amount of work done last year.
Both items urged cont •. nued vigilance detapite these achievements.
After stating that the water level halfway through the rainy
season showed signs of not rising as high as it did last year,
the domestic radio artir.le etreaeed that the dikes must be
reinspected and that reE..!Ue capability, stockpiling of materil'.ls,
and projects to restore production after flooding as well as to
prevent it in the first place must be carried out in a fighting
spirit.
Emphasis on maintaining and improving an adequate dike and dam
system was evident :f.n two earlier articles that have recently
became available. A lengthy article by M:fuister of Water Con1ervi'ncy
Ha Ke Tan in the July issue of HOC TAP focused on the importance
of fighting floods and flash floods, whether caused by natural
forces or by the "barbarous acts of the Nixon clique." After
touching only briefly on alleged instances of damaae caused by
U.S. bombing, Tan confidently asserted that auch actions will
"certainly not . . . in~biidate our people [or] force them to
agree to a solution b'!·.wficial" to the Nixon Admbistration.
U.S. air strikes only increase the Vietnamese peor1e's hatred
and fighting spirit, Tan declared.
Tan then focused on more "practical and concrete" measures for
dealing with the situatio·•. All dikes anci dams should be
strengthened and measures should be tabn to protect them from
enemy attacks, he said, and river banks and beds are to be kept
clear so as to drain flash flood waters rapidly. Tan urged that
greater attention be given to properly organizing, training, and
equipping the "dike-protection forces," and he chastised backsliders
for tendencies toward complacency which, he clalmed, had been
responsible for the breaking of three dikes during last year's
heavy floods.• Tan concluded that if the dikes do break this year,
"Nixon must be held responsible for this genocidal crime."

Stressing the impot:tAnce of continuing l.., strengthen and repair

the dikes around Hanoi, a W~OI MOI editorial on 28 July claimed
that the capil:el "has succ~ssfully completed" dike repair tasks
and t:hat loca·t. dik.1:.- 11re "n"w cap .. ble of resisting such a water
level as that of last ~..-iar, 11 But ·:t:t said efforts should be
intensified to maint~in adequate comunications among local
dike-repair forces and to insure their level of training and
preparation. Linking injunctions for greater mobilization to
the claim that the United States is attempting to "sabotage our
dikes," the editorial called for incre1ased vigilance to protect
the capital and to defeat the U.S. aggressors.
LAWYERS' Cot+1ENT The only other significant attention givan the
dike issue in the past week appeared in ~arts
II and III of a five-part recorded discus ■ ion on President Ni}wn' s
"war crimes" broadcast in Hanoi'P d0111estic service from 9 through
12 August,* Citing statistics reported earlier by the Water
Conservancy Ministry and "concrete proofs" provided by numerous
visitors to the DRV, the two lawye~s--ollegedly'sp ecialists in
international and criminal law--developed the thesis that Pr,!sident
Nixon :Ls a "poor l.1wyer" who r:l.dicule■ the cnarges leveled a1Jainst
him or else re!u1 e11 to answer them, ti1ereby attempting to e:vade
responsibility fo.,· his "crimes." Statements made by the President
at his 2; July press conference--that it is not deliberate U.S.
p~licy to bomb dikes or other civilian targets, that some of the
DRV's dikes were improperly mair.tained, and that the United States
has the capability, if it wished, of destroying the dike syP-tem
within a week--were denounced by both lawyers.
Describ:f.ng the President as "a ruthless executioner of our people
who always threatens people and carriea out brazen acts but denies
his wrongdoings," the law-;t:rs charged that he "obviously . . . plans
to kill as many civilians aF possible." Characterizing President
Nixon as a "new Hitler" by comp6ring him to a former Nazi governor
of the Netherlands who breachel the dikes, the broadcast argued
that the President is even worse th&n Hitler because, instead of
waging war against an advanced industrial country, he ~ttacks
countries "whose agriculture and industry are underdeveloped" and
which "have just regained their independe,,ce." '£he President was
urged to heed the evidence of U.S. strikes·at civilian targets
gathered by R~msey Clark, Joseph traft, and other visitors to the

DRV ISSUES tGE PROTESTS OVER BCRINGS, CLAI~ PLANES ln\'NED

The Foreign Ministry spokesman issued five routine statements
during the week detailing alleged U.S. bombing actions in the
North and condemning these and "other acts encroaching on the
DRV's sovereignty and security."
+ The statement of the 10th charged U.S. aircraft with bombing
and strafing po"ulated areas in Ha Bae, Quang Ninh, Thai Binh,
Nam Ha, Ninh Binh, Nghe An, Ha Tinh, and Quang Binh provinces on
the previous day. B-52's were said to have hit a number of
localities in Quang Binh, and U.S. warships were charged with
striking at Hon Me Island and a number of coastal villages :l.n
Thanh Hoa Province and the Vinh Linh zone. Civilian casualties
and property damage repor~edly resulted from these attacks,
despite "the Nixon A<lministration 's deceptive claim that it
does not bomb civilians [in] North Vietnam."
+ The statem,.nt of the 11th protested "savag-a raids" on the
10th on Vinh city, the outskirts of Haiphong, the provincial
capitals oi Ninh Binh and Thanh Hoa, and populated areas in Thai
Binh, Nam Ha, Ha Tinh, and Quang Binh provinces and the Vinh
Linh zone. The ,11tatement also r£.ported strikes by n-52 's at
localities in the Vinh Linh zone and by warships on coastal
areas of Ha Tinh Province and the Vinh Linh zone. Specific
targets said to have been hit inelude a junior middle sch~ol in
Thai Binh and seve.:al d~.kes--the 'l.':--a Ly River dike in Thai Thuy
district, the Dau sluice in Vu Thu district of Thai Dinh Province,
and the sea dam and a portion of the dike at Nghi Khmih village
in Nghi Loe district of Nghe An Province. It was noted that
these attacks occurred while "the Nixon Administration is still
stubbomly denying that U.S. aircraft are bombing civilian
establishments or deliberately striking at dikes and water
conservancy works in North Vietnam,"
+ The 12 Au~ust statement condemned air strikes of the 11th on
populated a~eae in Thai Dinh, Nam Ha, Nghe An, Ha Tinh, ~nd Quang
Binh provinf!tis 1snd the Vinh Linh area; B-52 attacks on Quang Binh
Province; and strikes by warships at eoaetal villages in Ha Tinh

charged th~t "these war acts of the Nixon Admintstration grossly
encroached upon the sovere~.gnty and security of the DRV and on
every fundamental principle of international law, and constituted
an arrogant challenge to public opinion in the world and in the
United States."

+ U. s. "crimin al war acts" of the 12th were portraye d in the

spokesman's stateme nt of the 13th as "brazen ly violatin g the
pledge made by the U.S. Government in October 1968 to totally
and uncond itionall y end the bombing and shelling of North
Vietnam." The statNDent charged the United States with
attackin g populate d areas in Quang Ninh, Hoa Dinh, Nam Ha, Ninh
Dinh, Thanh Hoa, Nghe An, Ha Tinh, and Quang Dinh provinc es and
the Vinh Linh zone. It also claimed that B-52's bombed a number
of localit ies in the Vinh Linh area and Quang Dinh Provinc e and
that U.S. warship s shelled coastal areas in Ha Tinh and Quang
Dinh provinc ~s and the Vinh Linh area. The strikes were said
to have caused heavy civilia n casualt ies and widespread destruc tion
of economic and cultura l establis hments .

day on Vinh city, on the capital of Ninh Dinh Provinc e, and on
populat ed areas in Thai Dinh, Nam Ha, Ninh Dinh, Nghe An, Ha

were charged with bombing localit ies in Quang Dinh Provinc e, and
U.S. warship s were said to have shelled coastal village s in Nghe

launche d "in defianc e of strong condemnatio,i. by the world and
American public, " reveal the Nixon Admini st:ration 's "utter
obstina cy and bellico sity."

bombing of the suburbs of Haiphong and Vinh city, were highlig hted
in the spokesman's stateme nt of the 15th. Also reporte d hit were
populat ed areas in Hai Hung, Thai Dinh, Nam Ha, Ninh Dinh, Nghe

PRG DENIES CHARGES ~ ATROCITIES, ACCUSES U,S, OF "CRIMES"

A 9 August PRG Foreign Mini ■ try spokeaman'• statemenl denounced
President Nixon aa "the biggest war criminal of our time" and
rebutted allied charges that the communists had~ Jsacred
government official ■ in areas they controlled in Binh Dinh and
had deliberately killed civilians fleeing down Highway 1 from
Quang Tri city,* The Vietnamese communis•ta have responded
publicly to previous allied charges of atrocities, though not
usually at the fol'e!.gn ministry level. For example, LPA
announced on 13 May that it was authorized to deny charges that
the communists had executed two French missionaries. The
9 August statement referred 1pecifically to 4 and 7 August
statements on the killings by a spokesman for the State Department
and to remarks by President Nixon in his 27 July press conference,
but it gave no indication of th~ details of the charges beyond an
assertion that "the so-called 'masaac·cea' dnd 'killings of
civilians"' are "n sheer fabrication, 1' The statement asserted
that these "odious tricks of the White House" are aimed at
misleading public opinion, covering up the U.S. policy of
prolonging the war, and distorting the polici 1Jii • f the resistanc:e;
and it recalled the PRG's 10-point policy on GVN soldiers and
officials, released on 2S January, as evidence of its humanitarJgn
policy,**
More details of the ehargea were noted in a 10 August LPA commentary
which scored President Nixon and "the State Department psywar
machine" for "trotting out absurd allegations and slanders and
cooking up the so-called 'massacres of civilians,' 'shellings of
cities and wanton killing of refugees by the communists."' LPA
particularly noted that on Sand 7 August "they invented storie'3
claiming that the communists had intentionally killed from 1,000
to 2,000 people. including women and children who were fleeing
from Quang Tri on April 29 and 30, and that 'the communists had
executed hundreds of Saigon functionaries and arrested and put in
jail thousands of others in Binh Dinh,"' Both the commentary and
Mme, Binh in her st~tement at the 10 August Paris session decried
the Administration's use of these "slanders" in an attempt to
demonstrate that a bloodbath , ··ld follow a communist takeover.

The LPA commentary contraated the PRG'a 10-point policy with

allied policies, noting the "irony" that the " ■ lander ■" were
made public while "the traitor Nguyen Van Thieu had frenziedly
ordered cruel agent ■ in the oo-called 'people'• aelf-defenae
force' to 'wipe out the comnunist inlraatructurea,' including
those whom he brand ■ aa 'communiat' village and hamlet
administrative personn3l, tax collector ■, and the like." On
11 Auguat an LPA report cited "source ■ from Saigon" in charging
that Thieu "recently ordered all provi't'lcial governors to
secretly destroy all the 10-called ordanizations of the NFL
infrastructure tight inside the pup,1et administrative machine,"
even "ordering them to eliminate alt member a of the village and
hamlet administration auspected to be 'communist agents. 111
Commun:l.st charges that the allies have carried out "criminP.1 11
attacks on "liberated" areas continue, with VNA and LPA on
14 and 15 August carrying accounts of an 11 August statement by
the people's revolutionary committee of Binh Dinh Province which
charged that "wanton" air and artillery bombardments supporting
ARVN counteroffensive operations in the province had caused more
than 300 civilian casualties and destroyed thousands of homes.
The statement cited specific air and naval attacks on populated
areas and added that "along with extl!rmination bombardments against
villages, the U.S.-puppets also ronducted air raids on dams and
pumping stations on either aide of the Lai Giang River, denying
water to thousands of hectares of paddy-fields.•· A 3 August PRG
Foreign Ministry statement on alleged allied "crimes" in North
and South Vietnam had claimed that the United States had bombed
three dams on the Lai Giang River on 20 July "in an attempt to
strike directly at the life of the people" in Hoai An and Hoai
Nhon districts.* The Binh Dinh revolutionary committee's state-
ment also charged that Saigon forces, "directly commanded by U.S.
advisers," had compelled civilians to act as a shield for them.

statement that to achieve a solutic" the United States must,
along rith withdrawing its troops, ceae~ support for the
Saigon "clique," Thieu muat resign, and the Saigon adm:i.nistration
must change its policy,
VNA al.so included the main part of her explanation of the PRG
proposal for the formation of a national concord government,
The explanation was presented as a response to the view that the
United States does not have political responsibility and to the
statement--contained in Ambassador Porter's remarks at the
3 August session--that the PRG proposal raised psychological
and practical obstacles which stagger the imagination, Mme, Binh
also rejected tte contention that the proposed national concord
~overnment would be imposed undemocratic3lly and would result
in an arbitrary partition of powers and the installation of a
communist government,
The PRG's "clarification" of its proposal was endorsed by Nguyen
Minh Vy--speaking in place of DRV delegation head Xuan Thuy, who
was said by the DRV spokesman at the post-session press briefing
to be slightly indisposed, VNA omitted Vy's detailed charges
about "deliberate" U,S, attacks on dikes and populated areas in
North Vietnam but included his criticism of the United States
for violating its 1968 pledge to halt the bombing and his attack
on Thieu for advocating more U,S, bombing and the destruction of
the North, It also cited his concluc'ing remarks in which he called
on the United States to stop all war acts and enter into serious
negotiations and declared: "We~~~ prepared to discuss innnediately
with the United States the key points which the PRG has pointed
out and elaborated to rapidly achieve a solution satisfac~ory to
the parties,"
VNA's cryptic report of the allied remarks at the session appeared
to reflect the discussion during the give-and-take portion of the
session when Ambassador Porter recalled the 19 July HANOI MOI
picture of an antiaircraft gun on a dike and questioned the
North Vietnamese contention that there were no militar;

was "&oeking new pretexts for the United States to continue its

Allied cal1a ~t the Paris conference for a c~aae-fire were
denounced ira a 13 August Hanoi radio "article" which appeared to
re9pond directly to Ambassador Porter's statement at the 3 August
session of the talks when it rejected as "hypocritical" the view
that the moat urgent task is to end the killing and the notion
that the comuniata should pay attention to the Vietnamese pe~ple
r~ther than to their own political objective ■, Pointing out Lhat
the war is being waged because of the conflicting political
objecUvee of the two aides, the· radio declared that "in solving
the South Vietnam problem one cannot deal only with the military
problem without speaking of the political problem," 'l'he article
stressed the need to topple Thieu and held that aa long as he
remains as a "tool" of the United States, "the request for a
cease-fire is itself meaningless." The article continued:
Such a cease-fire cannot eliminate the cause of
the war, Instead, such a cease-fire will
permanently maintain the factors for waging
war against any time, No one naively believes
that if there is a cease-fire, if the Americana
withdraw their troops, and if the captured
soldiers are released the Vietnamese people
will be able to solve their own political
problem, as Nixon boasted,
While not announcing the third of the recent private meetings
between Kissinger and Le Due Tho on 14 August, Hanoi responded to
rumors about the meeting in a 16 August QUAN DOI NHAN DAN.article
deprecating reports from "Western sources" that a new U,S, peace

fact is that the United StatH ii intensifying i:he war and has
done nothing to end it," QUAN DOI NHAN DAN cited an AFP
report for the view that the Nixon Administration is using
"publicity about the secret Paris talks and rumors about a
new U,S, peace proposal to serve its election campaign," and it
declared that "the so-called 'new peace plan' of Nixon is
obviously a mere psywar ruove , , , , "
Hanoi media have been routinely reporting Democratic criticism
of the Administration's position on Vietnam, and on 15 August
VNA picked up the charge by Vice Presidential candidate Shriver
that President Nixon lost a chance for peace in 1969, A
16 August VNA report noted remarks on the issue by former U.S.
chief delegate to the Paria conference Harriman, VNA quoted
Harriman'& criticism of the Administration for supporting
Thieu rather than negotiating a settlement, but it did not
note his view that the communists had signaled their willingness
to reach a settlement when they withdrew combat troops from
South Vietnam's northern provinces.
Hanoi again regiatered its opposition to the reconvening of a
Geneva-type conference on VietnAm in an article which VNA on
the 15th said had appeared in "the biggest Hanoi paper," The
article scored the British for raising the question of a
conference last May, noting that the Indian Government was
approached at that time but "refused to cooperate in this
inglorious venture." It criticized Britain's actions in its
role as cochairman and complained that "each time the United
States lands in a new difficulty in Vietnmn, the British
Govemment unfailingly flies to its rescue by calling for a
reconvening of the 1~54 Geneva conference on Vietnam. 11 Hanoi's
motive in recalling the British proposal at this time is unclear;
the article may have been prompted by the 25th anniversary of
Indian independence, marked in the Hanoi press on the 15th. The
call for a Geneva conference had previously been scored in a 17 May
DRV Foreign Ministry spokesman's statement which accused the
British Government of "lending a hand to the tfixon Administration
in its militar_y adventure and perfidious diplomatic moves."

"densely populated areas." Unlike the DRV statement, the editorial
evoided attacking President Nixon for having denied that it is
U.S. policy to bomb such targets; thd editorial referred
impersonally to the U.S. Government, charging that it is U.S.
policy to force the North Vietnamese to cease supporting "their
:ompatriots in the South" and that it is the U.S. intention to
cause floods du~ing the rainy season.

settlement, though it called for an end to "indiscriminate"
American bombing in Vietnam, As reflected in the editorial's
title, "The Iron Will of the Vietnamese People Ia Unshakable,"
Peking again took the occa1ion to expreaa confidence that the
Vietnamese can cope with the situation. But where the DRV
statement asserted that neither bombing nor "perfidious political
and diplomatic maneuver•" of the Nixon Administration could
shake Hanoi's will, the PEOPI,E'S DAILY editorial referred more
vaguely to "outrageous means and intr•gues" in this context,
Ae part of Peking's replaying of Vietnamese and other foreign
reports on bombing of dikea, NCNA on the 11th carried accounts
by foreign visitors in the DRV, including a report on Jane
Fonda's accusations, but PRC media have yet to refer to the visit
of Ramsey Clark. Peking belatedly on 10 August began picking
up VNA accounts of late ·uly and early August concerning
casualties suffered by O~erseas ChineaefrOllU,S. air strikes in
the Haiphong area. In its own name Peking has limited itself
to a two-sentence NCNA dispatch on the 10th reporting that a
Chinese embassy official had called on the vice president of an
Overseas Chinese association in Vietnam on 4 August to express
"indignation" and "deep concern" for the victims and their
families.

Hanoi and P~king hailed as a significant victory the seating of
the delegations of the PRG and of Sihanouk's government (RGNU)
as full members at the 8-12 August conference of foreign
ministers of nonalined nations in Guyana.* Moscow, however,
consistent with its failure to recognize the RGNU, barely
acknowledged the admission of the two delegations at the end
of an 11 August TASS report on that day's session of the
conference. On the 12th TASS btiefly reported a speech by the
PRG delegate, but there was no further Soviet mention of the
RGNU delegation.
* The two delegations were not admitted as full members to the

Sep~ember 1970 Lusaka conference of heads of st.Ate and government of
nonalined countries. The PRG was admitted as an "observer, ,i and
the question of which delegation was to represent Cambodia was
shelved, The ~eating issue accordingly received little attention in

A 12 August NHAN DAN editorial acclaimed the admission of the

PRG and RGNU delegations aa a "victory of great significance"
for the anti-U.S. struggle in Indochina and for the "militant
solidarity" of the "oppressed people and progressive mankind"
with the Indochinese peoples. The Nixon Administration and
"a handful of lact,eys" have tried to "slander and divide" the
Indoch:Lneae people. according to NHAN DAN, which called the
Guyana conference decision "a bitter and ignominious failure
for the u.s. imperialists and their lackeys."
The editorial cited an AP reporter as speculating that the
decision "may further strengthen the posture of the Vietnamese
communists at the Paris peace conference because they will have
the moral support of 66 nonalined countries." NHAN DAN addrd
that the "deplorable attitude" of the Indonesian, Malaysian, and
Lao representatives at the conference--they walked out to
protest tha admission of the PRG delegation--shows "the seamy
side of the so-•called ASEAN solution to the Vietnam problem
which was recently rejected by our government and people."*
NHAN DAN also took the occasion to claim that the decision to
seat the delegations proves that "the U.S.-Thieu clique can
deceive no one with its false accusation that the PRG is
plotting to set up a communist regime in one-half of Vietnam."
The conference's decision, the editorial said, confirms that
the PRG's policy of "peace, independence, neutrality, and
national concord" is reasonable.
Pegging its coment a notch lower than an editorial, Pekin~
acclaimed the decision to seat the PRG and RGNU delegations in
a PEOPLE'S DAILY Comnentator article on 13 August. The article
was mainly devoted to puffing the cause of Peking's Cambodian
client, claiming that the conference's decision is proof of the
RGNU's "rising international prestige" and Jenouncing the Lon Nol
* Kuala Lumpur radio on 16 July quoted the llalaysian deputy

premier as reporting that at the ASEAN foreign ministers meeting
in Manila a definition of a Southeast Asian "zone of peace,
freedom, and neutrality" had been agreed upon and that the
conference agreed to contribute all it could toward an Indochina
settlement. The deputy premier said that "secret overtures' 1
rather than "open contacts" woilld be necessary to this end. On
10 August VNA reported• that a DRV Foreign Ministry official
called in the Indonesian charge d'affaires and rejected "the

~ISARMAMENT
r()SCCM: QLD DISAR-W1ENT CONFERENCE WIU. NOT REPIACE SALT
Moscow has again stressed the importance of holding a world disarma-
ment conference (UDC) but has made abundantly clear that such a
gathericg cannot rt'place the negotiation s by the Conference of the
Committee on Disarm,,ment ,(CCD) in Geneva or the strategic arms
limitation talks (SAr,T) with the United States. The Soviet
position on these matters .was outlined in an article in the
28 July issue of the weekly NOVOYE VREMYA (No. 31) by Nikolay
Arkadyev, a commentator who has become the unofficial foreign
affairs weekly's principal spoke11J111an on disarma·aent. The article
apparently foreshadows the Soviet position on WDC to be forwarded
to the UN Secretary General, in response to the UN General Assembly
resolution >f 16 December 1971 advising member states t.o forward
their sugg, stions by 31 August. Ad~!ldyev wrote that "the
preparatiori for a conference and its convening must not in any
degree detract from the significanc e of those forms and channels
for negotiation s on disarmament which are being used at the present
time," and he went on to specify both the Geneva talks and SALT.
Reviewing what he labeled a general trend in internation al support
for the "Soviet initiative" to convene a world conference on
disarmament, including "a change in the U.S. position" as
reflected in the joint Soviet-u.s. communique on President Nixon's
visi,, Arkadyev cited the Mexican Government's June memorandum on
WDC as containing "'- number of positive and rational opinions."
In particular, the ~rticle listed the Mexican proposal that there
be universal participati on, that the conference convene in 1974,
that such conferences be held "periodical ly" thereafter, and that
"a special preparatory organ be created" i.i which "appropriat e
geographical and political representat ion would be guaranteed. "
Underscoring hie approval of the Mexican memorandum, Arkadvev again
stated that :lt "included •ny u■eful thou1ht ■ ~nd id•••~"
Prefacing his statement that a WDC "must not" dlltract from the CCD
and SALT, he recalled the Soviet proposa~ at last year's General
Assembly session that a world disarmament conference should become
"a forum operaU.ng on a long-term basis and convened periodicall y"
to assign topics "to smaller working organs'for negotiation s."
Arkadyev said there was "no need to discuss in detail" the fact
that "all nuclear powers must participate " in any arrangement
regarding nuclear disarmament; he reminded his readers of the 1971
Soviet proposal to convene a confe~ence of the five r.uclear powers,

a proposal which, he pointed out, only the French Government

"actively suppor.ted." Acknowledging indirectly that the PRC had
taken a negati•,e position on such a five-power gathering, a
fact repeatedly recalled in routine Soviet polemics against the
Chinese, he observed that "true, not all the nuclear powers
reacted positively" to the proposal to hold such a conference
but added optimistically that the USSR "does not believe the
final word has been uttered concerning this que&~ion." Arkadyev
argued that a five-power conference "could also promote effective
work by a WDC," but that "at the same time it would be incorrect
to make a preliminary meeting of the five nuclear powers a
necessary condition for holding a world conference."

SINO-SOVIET RELATIONS
r-nscCM CONVEYS APPREH:NSlON OVER PEKIMi'S EUROPEAN POLICY
'
With preparations for a European security confe~~nce sch~duled for
Helsinki in.the fall•and against a background of active Chinese
interest in Europe, Soviet bloc media.have intensified a carefully
orchestrated campaign to discredit Peking's European policy.,
Articles in IZVESTIYA, the GDR 's NEUES DEUT.SCHLAND, Warsaw's
IDEOLOGJA I POLITYKA, and Budapest's NEPSZABADSA~--the latter
two widely broadcast by Radio Moscow--make the case that despite
Peking's efforts to normalize relatinns with some European
countries, it is persisting in its hostility toward the Soviet
Union while seeking to isolate Moscow from its allies and to
counter the Soviet detente campaign in Eurt]e.
NElES DEUTSCH~D, Concem over the prospect of Peking-Bonn
IZVESTIYA ARTICLES ties was reflected in Soviet bloc comment
on the recent visit to Peking by the West
German "shadow" foreign minister, Gerhard Schroedt!r. Typically,
East Germany's NEUES DEUTSCHLAND, in an article on 26 July viewed
the Schroeder trip with alarm, characterizing it as "the beginning
of a phase of open cooperation between the Peking leadership and
the imperialist forces of the FRG." It went on to interpret the
trip as confirmation that the
diplomatic acti:vities pursued by Peking are o1.,dt'usly
dictated by searcely hidden hostility toward a European
security conference and by the attempt·to subvert the
vi3ible successes of the policy of peaceful coexistence
and thus to frustrate the coming of peace and security
to our continent.
Taking a slap at the Brandt-Scheel government, NEUtS DEUTSCHLAND
went on to ask how in the face of Schroeder's obvious motives
for visiting Peking "is one to understand the fact that FRG
Chancellor Brandt, as stated by his spokesman Ahlers, received
Schroeder officially for full talks, that he suppurt~d Schroeder's
plan from the very beginning and gave him necessary references
for his talks."
In contrast to the GDR party organ's criticism of Brandt, the
article in th'! 12 August issue of IZVESTIYI.., by M. Mikhaylov,
praised the efforts of the Brandt-Scheel government for "playing

its part in the favorable processe s taking place in Europe," The

article limited its criticism to "Schroed er and his sympathi zers
from the CDU/CSU who are acting in a diametric ally opposite
direction ," Mikhaylov went on to charge that Schrueder was
invited to Peking precisely because ot his "ruachinntions" against
European detente :~d his oppositio n to improved FiG relations
with the Soviet bloc countries , In this context, Mikhaylov cited
an AP correspon dent for the view that by wooing Schroede r, Peking
hopes to "bring the oppositio n back into power in West Germany
and to slow down Bonn's implemen tation of its Ostpolit ik,"
A Grigoryev dispatch f tom Bonn in PRA-'IJA on the 6th had similarly
tie~ Schroede r's Peking trip to the upcoming Bundestag election s,
remarking that it waP designed to enable the "CDU/CSU bloc to
obtain its own Eastern policy topic fo:r the election campaign ,"
The dispatch added that: "the nearer the election approach es and
the more acute the election struggle becomes, the more frequentl y
and blatantly the Chinese argument will be advanced in the dis-
c.Jssion of Eastern policy,"
NEPSZABADSAG In ~eeping with Budapest 's role as a leading
ARTICLE proxy spok~sman for Moscow in the Sino-Sov iet
dispute, NEPSZABADSAG's 10 August article,
entitled "China's European Policy,~• charged that Peking's wooing
of the Honn "conserv ative oppositio n in the person of Gerhard
Schroede r" is only part of its European policy, which sees
capitali st Europe and NATO as providing a political and military
counterb alance to the Soviet bloc, Broaching a subje,~t generally
avoided in Soviet media, the article sought to counter the notion
that Moscow would attempt to exploit a European de~ente by
devoting greater attention to the Chinese problem, Thus the
article rejected the idea allegedly advanced by the Chinese in
their negotiati ons with the West to the effect that Soviet
involvement in Europe "represe nts a relief for China's defense,"
China, the article concluded, "is not threatene d by the Soviet
Union, but by imperiali sm,"
IZVESTIYA Reflectin g Moscow's effort to dissuade other
REPRINT conmunist states from being receptive to Peking's
diplomat ic overture s, IZVESTIYA on 11 August
reprinted an article from the Polish journal IDEOLOGJA I POLITYKA

Peking still collsiders the USSR. "enemy number one," In passages
buttressi ng the case that the Chinese have not relented in their

NCNA carried a series of report~ on Chinese embassy receptions •

which t~e reports were carried and the atmospherics they portrayed
were designed to provide a carefully calibrated reading of Peking's

A month after invitation throuah intermediaries
i ■■uina an informal
ahortly after Japaneae
th• in ■ tallation of Prime Minister Tanaka,
Peking on 12 Au1u1t formally invited Tanaka to viait China, The
announcement of Tar1ka'1 formal acceptance on 15 August stated th~~
details of the trip would be di ■cloaed simultaneously by both
aides after the timin1 of the viait ia set, Chinese advance
publicity for the trip has been carefully designed to imply that
the visit will take place at Japanese urging, not "s a result of
an informal Chineae invitation in July which apparently speeded ur
Tanaka's own timetable for eatabliahing relations, Though Peking's
treatment of Japan aince Tanaka's accession marked a dramatic shift
from its previous hostility,* the Chinese have been at pains to
avoid giving th~ impression that they are the supplicant party in
arranging the visit,
Peking's first reference to the possibility of a T~naka trip was
contained in a 24 July NCNA dispatch reporting Tanaka's speech to
the first me~:!ng of the LDP's council for normalizing PRC-Japanese
diplomatic relations, Tanaka wam quoted as saying thAt "as to the
visit of the foreign minister and me to China, it should be decided"
by the council, On 4 August NCNA quoted the LDP council chairman
as telling Tanaka that he "should visit Peking personally to have a
frank exchange of views with the Chinese leaders." On 9 August
NCNA noted that the council had "unanimously adopted a decision in
favor of a visit," NCNA reported on the 11th that Japanese Foreign
Minister Ohira "told the Chinese side officially" that Tanaka had
decided to visit China to discuss normalization of relations,
The formal Chinese invitation was finally relr.ased on 12 August in
the form of an announcement by Foreign Minist~r Chi Peng-fei that
Chou En-lai "welcomes and invites" Tanaka. C:mtinuing to portray
Japanese eagerness, the announcement noted Oh1ra's talk with Chinese
officials in Tokyo at which he stated that '." .. naka "wishes" to visit
China, The announcement auggested high hopes for the success of the
trip, stating that Chou·s invitation is for the purposg of
"negoti&cions and settlement" of the question of normalization of
Sino-Japanese diplomatic relations, On 15 August NCNA carried an
account of Tanaka's meeting that day with Chineae officials to
formally accept the invitation, Again Japan was presented as the
beseecher, with Tanaka quoted as expressing "heartfelt thanks" for
the invitation and the "hope" that the talks prove fruitful,

CHI NA- THAI LAND

PEKIN; MUTES ANNIVERSARY OF 11-IAI C~IST INSlRGENCV'•'
Contributing tc the improved atmoaphara 3urrounding Sino-Thai
relation ■ highlighted by the impending viait to Peking next
month of a Thai table tennia team accompanied by an important
official, Peking chose to mark the aeventh anniversary on
7 Auguat of the communist-led inaurgency in Thailand in a lower
key than in previoua years, The Thai team's vi ■ it has been
announced by Bangkok but not Pe~ing, which often awaits the
arrival of a foreign delegation before publicizing a new venture
in people' a diplomacy. Peking' a aubdut.d treatment of th&
insµrgency anniversary this year has been typical of its practice
in recent years in developing a more differentiated and flexible
line f~llowing the diplomatic chaos of the cultural revolution.
As the dating of the insurgency and Peking's past treatment
indicate, Sino-Thai relations have to a considerable extent been
affected by the Indochina war, and particularly the U.S. and
Thai involvement, Thia factor has been reflected in the slower
pace at which Peking's relations with Thailand have improved as
compared to its relations with such other countries in the area
as Burma and Malaysia. lecent indications suggest, however,
that Peking is prepared to follo"~ the pattern shown in the case
of Burma and Malaysia by reduc:f.ng its hostility toward the Thai
regime while leaving it to tha communist clandestine radio to
r ~omote the inau~gent line.
The Indochina factor was much in evidence on the anniversary of
the Thai insurgency two years ago, wh~n Peking sharply attacked
the Bangkok regime as a traitor to Thailand aud an accomplice in
the U.S. war effort in Indochina. Shnrtly thereafter, a
PEOPLE'S DAILY Commentator article on 15 August 1970, warning
Bangkok against sending additional troops to Cambodia, treated
the Thanom government with the same hostility as shown Lon Nol,
assailing it as "a faithful running dog in th(! pay of U.s.
imperialism." In marking the anniversary in 1971 Peking dropped
the connection with the Indochina war, though the Thanon government
was repeatedly denounced by name on the score of having sold out
Thai sovereignty to the United States. One of the NCNA reports
on the occasion strongly endorsed "armed struggle" in Thailand as
the correct road to seize power, citing the authority of Lenin to
stress the need for "violent revolution."

The sole Peking-origina ted report on the anniversary this year

was a 7 Au~ust NCNA account of the Thai ins~iiency that contained
only one reference to the "Thanom-Praphat clique," otherwise
referring more vaguely to "Thai relictionaries, " Although NCNA
duly hailed the seven years of "people's war," it did not repeat
last year's categorical endorsement of armed struggle as the
soln correct path, It also concluded by taking note of
"extremely difficult conditions" under which the "'nsurgents are
operating, Earlier, a PEOP~E'S DA!LY Conunentator Brticle on
28 June assaili11g American militarr deployments in Thailand
avoidecl any pejot'ative reference to the Thanon government, and a
2"I Jar.4.1ary PRC Foreign Ministry statement on the 'i'hai-Cambodian
border security arrangement reflected Peking's more differentiated
approach by denouncing the "Lon Nol-Sirik Matak traitorous clique"
while less provocatively referring to "the reactionaries of
Thailand."
Peking's more flexible line has also been reflected in divergences
between its ap~roBch and that taken by the Thai conununiets--
paralleling developments in Peking's relations with Burma and
Mala~•sia. Thus, where the NCNA report marking the Thai
insurgency anniversary said the Thai communists are "integrating
Marxism-Leninism with the revolutionary practice of Thail~nd,"
an article on Chinese Army Day broadcast by the clandestine
"Voice of the People of Thailand" claimed that the Thai CP is
"integrating Marxism-Leninism-Mao Teetung Thought with the
revolutionary practice" in the country, The broadcast also added
the label "traitorous" to NCNA's lees hostile formula "Thanom-Praphat

RED FLAG CRITICIZES LIN'S RCU IN NORll-tEMT CN-l'AlGN

An ar~1cle in RED FLAG No, 8, reprinted in PEOPLE'S DAILY and
broadcas t by Peking on 15 August, marks the first effort to
denigrate Lin Piao's major achievement as a Chinese com:nuniat
leader, his co•and of the Northeas t campaign which shattered
the KMT d~fenses in 1948, The article does so by giving total
credit to Mao's strategy as having been carried out even though
"swindle rs like Liu Shao-chi overestim ated the ene1:1y'1 strength
and underestj.mated the people's strength, " Credit for the general
strategy of the campaign has alwa1s bean given to Mao in off1cial
CCP accounts, and hiR telegrams giving strategic instructi ons were
republish ed in his SELECTED WORKS, But there has never been any
indicatio n until now that Lin opposed any of the strategy, He
pres 1:.mably did have a voice in determini ng strategy in addition
to carrying it out brilliant ly,
The RID FLAG article in effect portrays Lin as ha~ing opposed Mao's
basic idea that the main attack during the early stage of the
campaign should be directed against the rail lines linking Peiping
with the northeas t, at the city of Chinchou, which would seal off
the KMT forces from r4!treat, Mao is said to have turnf!I\ down "the
mistaken proposal made by swindlers like Liu Shao-chi that Ch~ni~hun
be att"'cked first," a proposal "made at the critical moment when the
dispositi on of our forces for the attack on Chinchou had been
completed," The article irrticates that Lin thought the plan too
ambitious and wanted to at.-~ .k the enemy pi1.:~.cemeal, allowing many
to escape,
That the article is to be joined soon by other attacks on Lin's
military leadershi p is suggested by its call for further study of
Mao's military writings and for further criticism of "the
revision ist politica l and mjlitary line pushed by swindler s,"
Lin has previousl y been cr~ticize d for lacking confidenc e in
the Red Army, Articles have recalled Mao's 1930 letter to Lin
later entitled "A Single Spark Can Start a Prairie Fire," a
letter probably intended at the time aa fatherly advice but
recently used to show Lin's early errors,
While Lin's role in the Northeas t campaign ia now under attack,
Peking has made a point of indicatin g that the attack does not
extend to the Fourth Field Army he commanded, The joint editoria l

CZECHOSLOVAK TRIALS
ITALIAN PARTY CHARGES "PERSECl1TI<14"; PRAVM BACKS PRAGUE
·, > •
With the Italian Communist Party (PCI) leadership now following

the French CP in formally censuring the current Czechoslovak
political trials,'Moac ow ftnally weighed· in on 14 August with its
firs~ original ~omment on the controvera ial proceeriing s--a signed
article in PRAVDA vigorously backing the Czechoslovak justificati on
for the trials, Signed by Ivan Dmitriyev and entitled "There Is
No Limit to Hypocrisy," the article ostensibly took only "bourgeois
propaganda" to task for "hypocritic al remarks" and interferenc e in
Czechoslov akia's internal affairs. But it betrayed clear sensitivity
to the vocal, sustained criti.cism of the trials that has come from
the West European comunist parties when it complained that
"reactionar y" elements are using "concoction s about Czechoslovak
political trials" to "sow hatred among progressive forces and to
c..;.use friction in the communist and workers movemant."
Soviet central media had previously confined their coverage of the
trials to brief reports on the proceedings and sentencing s,
usually citing Prague sources, The first comment in the central
press was taken from the Czechoslovak party daily RUDE PRAVO:
On 9 August PRAVDA reprinted without comment the 2 August
RUDE PRAVO article in which the Prague leadership adamantly
defended the trials and rebutted Western "bourgeois" criticism,
and the weekly LITERATURNAYA GAZETA reprinted the same article
on the same day with prefatory remarks pointing up the nature
of Moscow's concern. The weekly noted th~t according to RUDE

the trials was "to frustrate the trend toward unification of
left forces which is beginning to show in certain West European

Reporting that meeting, Moscow radio on the 7th and PRAVDA the
next day described the atmosphere as "cordial and friendly,"
If the trials were discussed, the result was manifestly a
stalemate, The Soviet papers reprinted the 2 August RUDE
PRAVO article on the same day the PCI rele~aed :a. ··o:a formal
statement of condemnation,
The PCI Politbu~o used notably explicit terms to criticize the
Czechoslovak leadership, The statement said that the "political
trials" raise "new grave questions" concern:Ln1 the situation in
Czechoslovakia four years after "the August 1968 military
intervention" and concern:f.ni:t "the principles on which the
building of socialism ■hould be baaed: 11 The ■ tatement was e_qual\y
clear on the PCI's con~ern over the impact of the trials on its
own political fortunes in Italy:
. . . these are quer.tions which cannot fail to affect every
communist party, and--lacking, among other things, full
information and c~nvincing explanations--it is therefore
both legitimate and a duty to raise reservations and express
clear opinions, while at the same time rejecting the course
of interference in the domestic life of another country and
bearing clearly in mind that every party must be responsible
for its own actions and positions.
In earlier comment in L'UNITA the PCI had been insistent on the
point that the trials exceeded the bounds of a purely internal
C=echoslovak affair and that in censuring them the PCI was therefore
not violating the principle of noninterference, The statement
pulled few punches in rendering the PCI's judgment of the proceedings:
The recent resort to methods of judicial perse~ution regarding
people who until 1968 were qualified leaders of the CPCZ and
of Czechoslovak culture, and who moreover had already been
deprived of the possibility of being active in public life
and had even been removed from their professional jobs, draws
atte~tion to the lasting seriousness of the situation in
Czechoslovakia, What is particularly grave is the pursuit
of a logic of revenge to its ultimate conclusion, in all
fields, with respect to the leaders of the political "new
course" which asserted itself in Czechoslovakia in 1968,
Hence the renewed dissent and reprobation which the PCI
Politburo intends to shJw,

critici sm at the Czechoslovak trials , An

genera l line of the arg•Jments presen ted by the French a·nd Italian
partie s, questio ned the "evide nce of the alleged violat ions and
the nature and interp retatio ns of the law itself ," Noting the
"limite d inform ation" availa ble on the trials, the Britis h CP
paper said that the defend ants' "polit ical differe nces with the
Czechoslovak Government" should be dealt with "by politi cal means,
and not by trials and imprisonment," The Belgian Communist Party
(PCB) paper LE DRAPEAU ROUGE carried an article on 4 August which
quoted from the French CP statem ent of 2~ July ~ensur ing the
Czechoslovak leader ship and added: "We subscr ibe unrese rvedly to
that statem ent," The author of the PCB paper' s articl e, Jet Turf,
mentioned "the public disapp roval of the trials, "
REBUTTALS FROM PRAGUE Prague 's RUDE PRAVO on the 11th sought to
counte r such critici sm and to convey a
pictur e of foreign communist suppor t for the trials by publish ing
a letter from one Franco is Bailly in Belgium which represe nted
the Belgian CP as suppor ting the Czechoslovak leader s' action s,
The letter mainta ined that the PCB had reprimanded a former member
of the Prague radio servic e for making anti-Cz echosl ovak statem ents
on Brusse ls r.adio, leaving it unclea r when the reprimand was
delive red and in what contex t, At the same time, clearl y alludin g
to the critici sm of the trials by the West European communist
partie s, a Prague domestic radio commentary on the 12th observed
that "unfor tunate ly some progre ssive and honest people " in the
West may have been taken in by "false " interp retatio ns of the

the case of the arrest of the Italian journa list Ochett o in Prague

CZECHOSLOVAK LEADERSHIP
PRPGlE MEDIA EFFUSIVE IN TREAlMENT a= '""'RDLINER BILAK
Extensive and laudatory treatment of the staunchly pro-Soviet
Vasil Bilak in Czechoslovak media on the occasion of his 55th
birthday seems to strer.gthen the possibility that the conserva-
tive CPCZ Presidium member and secretary could be elevated to
the first secretaryship if Gustav Husak should replace the
ailing General Svoboda as CSSR president, or that Bilak himself
could become president. The post of CSSR "President of the
Republ i.c," long held by Novotny, is somewhat more prestigious
than the counterpart positions of chairman of the parliamentary
presidium or state council chairman in the USSR and the other
East European countries.
The tributes to Bilak include a front-page picture and article
in the 11 August RUDE PRAVO on his receipt from Husak of the
Order of the Republic. While there has been no monitored
observance of the occasion in Soviet media, the paeans to Bil4k
in the Prague press uniformly underscore his steadfast loyalty
to the USSR during and since the critical 1968-69 period,
Attacked by liberals in 1968-69 for having allegedly colluded in
the August Warsaw Pact invasion, Bilak was given the honor of
greeting the foreign party delegations--includin g Brezhnev--by
name at the 14th CPCZ Congress i 1 May 1971. He had been the
1
architect of the "Lessons" docum,.mt, adopted by the December 1970

CPCZ plenum and released in January 1971, which stated officially
for the first time that the invasion was in responet to "requests"
from the Czechoslovaks. At the May 1971 Slovak CP C,:ingress in
Bratislava, which preceded that of the CPCZ, Husak bestowed
lavish praise on Bilak--his predecessor as Slovak CP first
secretary--rejecting the liberals' criticism of Bilak's conduct
during the in•rasion period and dismissing speculation about
"differences" between himself and the number-two CPCZ figures.*
RUDE PRAVO on 11 August, reporting the presentation of the Order
of the Republic by Husak in the presence of CPCZ Presidium members
and candidates, termed Bilak "a class-conscious workman,

with "the development of Czecho■ lovak•Soviet friendehip as the
,1uarantaa of our national and ■ tate ■ecurity, •1 And it atresaed
that Bilak had "fully profeaaed thi■ creed of hia life in the
moat difficult momenta of our ■ocial criaia--in the yeara 1968
and 1969, when he fully proved hia loyalty to the principles of
Marxism-Leninism and proletarian internationaliam,"
CTK on the 11th, the day of Bilak's birthday, and RUDE PRAVO the
next day reported a congratulatory letter from the Pr.eaidium of
the Slovak CP, In tha longer account in RUDE PRAVO, the Slovak
party' ■ letter recalled that "in the complex period of 1968-69
you displayed unwavering loyalty to the workers clasa, the CPCZ,
socialism, and proletarian internationalism," 'l'he letter added
that '-!you have proved in practice that our place ia at the aide
of our great ally and friend, the .Sovi.:t Union.'' and observed
that Bilak had devoted all hi~ strength "to see to it that our
country has again become M firm component part" of the aocialist
camp.
Prague domestic television on the 10th carried a quarter•hour
program on Bilak'a life and activit.ies. The program included
recordings of hi■ speechea, including his address to the 14th
congress, in which he praised the USSR and its "equal" treat-
ment of Czechoslovakia in bilateral relation,. It also included
recorded remarks by Husak praiaing Bilak at last year's Slovak
CP congre■ a, The announcer. atreased that Bilak "always ardently
expounded and defended the party policy regardleaa of the posts
a■ aigned to him by the party; he never concealed his inter-
nationaliat cla11 views and alway ■ consistently implemented
th• in practice." The peraonality-cult treatment also included

USSR INTERNAL AFFAIRS

PRESS AIRS n1VERGENT VIEWS~ PRIVATE ENTERPRISE
The notorioua ineffici ency of public service s in the USSR ha3
aiven rise to controv ersial proposals for the leaaliza tion of
private enterpri ■e in. this field and the establis hment of an
incentiv e ■yatea of waa•• for sales clerks, waiters , and other
■ tate aervice per■onnel. Propoaala alona these lines were made
by Alekaandr Levikov in a 2 Auauat diacuaa ion article in
LITERATURNAYA GAZBTA, a paper which in recent years baa served
a ■ a forum for debate on controv ersial reforms . At the same
time, calla for a crackdown on privr~e enterpr iae'have continued
to appear in the press.
The Levikov. article advocated the legaliza tion of individu ally or
collecti vely operated shops, cafes, and other services to supplement
and compete with state service enterpr ises. Such enterpr iaes, he
pointed o,,t, could be run by .persona not otherwi se employed by the
state--p enaione ra, houaew:l.vea, and invalid s, Levikov noted.th at
Brezhnev at. the 24th CPSU Conareaa h approved such private
enterpr ise and ha1 urged changes in legisla tion to encouraae it.
Aa further justific ation he pointed to the gold mining co.llect ives
in Kolyma, which rent mining equipment from the state and aell gold
to the state, and to the uperien ce of Bast Germany, Hunaary, and
Polanl1, "where the- individ ual under certain conditio ns and under
otat~ economic control ia given certain freedom of action in the
sphere of service. a."
To improve the.effi ciency of state service enterprise■ and make
them more respons ive to public needs, Levlkov.- also proposed the
introdu ction of an inceru.ive system of wage~ that would open the
door to hiaher earninaa for service per ■onnel and attract more
and better qualifie d people in this. sphere. He proposed that .the
earning■ of waiters be made dependent on tipa and the wages of
sale■ clerka on com1isaions, Such incentive■, he. araued, would
atillula te c011petition between individu als empli,yed by. the state
and al■o between atate aervice enterprise ■, P.ecognizing the

Dy contraut, un 8 Augu11t article in RADYANSKA UKRAINA called for

a crackdown on another wideeproud form of private enterprise- -the
ao-called "ehabashnik i" or unemployed migrants who perform
constructio n and other odd jobs for kolkhozea under contract,
Describing the "ahabashnik i" ae an "ugly phenomenon" which
ahould he stamped out, correspondent I, Taiganok complained
that they were able to make high earnings of up to 800 rubles
monthly despite their violations of labor discipline and
parasitic existence, He called for a reduction of the legal
period--cur rently four months--during wh:!Jn a person could
remain without permanent· employment,
1'he "shabashnik i" had been perser.uted under Khrushchev, but
the official attitud,,! began to ..!hange with the appear,,,uce of a
20 November 1966 PRAVDA articl d by .'!l;\~icultural journalist Yuriy
Chernichenko calling for a new, .,ositiv~ attitude toward the
migrants, Politburo member Voronov took the unusual step of
endorsing Chernichen ko's article in PRAVDA on 6 January 1967, and
since then occasional articles have treated the "shabashnik i"

MEMORANDUM FOR: Executive Director~ Comptrol ler
. SUBJECT MHCHAOS
l. In the course of the .survey of EUR Division, the sensi-

tivity of the MHCHAOS program was deemed to be so great as to
preclude our looking into it. We did not.revie w i~qCHAOS files,
nor did we discuss specific operation s at Headquar ters or in the
field. Conseque ntly any comments we make must necessar ily be of
a general nature. Because of the sensitivi ty of this subject, it
is handled separatel y from the report.
2. In the field, we detected numerous signs of uneasines s

over the Agency's role. Even though there is general belief that
CIA involvem ent is directed primarily at foreign manipula tion and
subversio n exploitat ion of U.S. citizens, we also encounter ed
general concern over what appeared to constitut e a monitorin g of
.the politica l views and activitie s of Americans not known to be
or suspected of being involved in espionage . Occasion ally stations
were asked to report on the whereabo uts and activitie s of prominen t
personal ities, such as Jane Fonda and Noam Chomsky, whose comings
and goings were not only in the public domain but for whom allega-
tions oi subversio n seemed sufficien tly nebulous to raise renewed
doubts as to the nature and legitimac y of the MHCHAOS program.
Some rather strong language was used in describin g what was .under-
stood to be the thrust of MHCHAOS, and several officers said they
wanted no part of it.
_3. At two posts the possible reactions of black officers --

whose loyalty was not impugned in the slightest --:was a matter of
serious concern. In one of these posts MHCHAOS traffic was destroyed
immediat ely after reading so as to avoid any possibil ity of its
somehow falling into the hands of a black officer.
4. Reservati ons in principle wer~ sometimes supported by the

more practica l considera tions of the likely effects of public dis-
closure. There was genuine concern over the probable consequen ces
were the program to be divulged to members of Congress and/or to
the American press -- it was feared the Agency would then find
itself confronti ng a major crisis.
C(b)(3)

...
5, In this connection a comment may be in order on the

possible cumulative effect of MHCHAOS queries to liaison services.
While we do not know the number or frequency of such requests it
would seem quite possible that, over a period of time, one or more
services could accumulate rather more inferential information on
the program than desirable in offices not under our close control.
If our own internal p~ecautions for safeguardin g MHCHAOS informa-
tion are appropriate ly seyere, we suggest that a rather large
loophole in these restriction s is gradually being created by the
flow of requests to liaison for MHCHAOS information .
□
6. On the subject of liaison (b)(3)
it appears
I that the.,______s_am._e_r_e_g_u_e_s_t_f_o_r_MH_C_HA_O_S____~
L_a_s_s~i-s~t_a_n_c_e------.h_a_s~too often been levied on cooperative services by (b )( 1)
both FBI and CIA representat ives. Depending upon the Station (b)(3)
relationshi p with the local FBI representa tive, this problem was
sometimes avoided through local coordinatio n. It would seem, how-
ever, that such coordinatio n should more properly be accomplishe d
in Washington.
7. We also heard complaints that often the background infor-

mation provided the field was less than desirable to support
station requests to liaison services for assistance. Equally
vexing to some stations was the tendency of Headquarte rs' initia-
tors of MHCHAOS communicati ons to assign too high a precedence to
their messages, which all too often arrived in the middle of the
night even though no action could be taken until the following
day.
8. The Chief of CI Staffl indicated I

□ (b)(3)
general awareness of the concerns voiced to us in the field but
had not· found the time to visit\ posts even though he recognized
the need for further explanation of the program with officers con- □ (b)(3)
cerned. He has lectured in the COS course and has tried to talk -
individuall y with outgoing station chiefs. We heartily endorse
these· efforts but do not believe they go :far enough. We therefore
urge that\ pr his deputy make periodic visits to the field Ub)(3)
in order to clarify the purposes of MHCHAOS, allay the apprehen-
sions of dedicated senior officers, reduce the flap factor, and
assure more effective coordinatio n with the field. But even such
well-intent ioned actions are unlikely to clear the air of basic
concepts, objectives, and procedures are not refined.

Order 11652 and the implem enting NSC

3. In accorda nce with my instruc tions, several Offices reporte d

domest ic activiti es which might appear questio nable to outside rs.
Their respons es are attached . Most of these activiti es are clearly
within the Agency 's charter , but there are a few which could be
viewed as borderl ine.
DCS accepts informa tion on possibl e foreign

involve ment in US disside nt groups and on the
narcoti cs trade when sources refuse to, deal
with the FBI and BNDD directly .
DCS, for six months in late 1972 and early 1973,

FBIS monitors radio press dispatche s and reports

covered by copyrigh t. These are circulate d within

This has gone on for three decades without problems .
FBIS has monitore d and reported on foreign radio

broadcas ts of statemen ts and speeches of US citizens
such as those by US POWs in Hanoi, Jane Fonda,

SUBJECT: Contacts with David Young
1. In the summer of 1972, I had frequent

contacts with David Young. He was in this
building under my control once. These contacts
related solely to Executive Order 11652 and the
NSC directive concerned therewith. Young was
apparently at the time in the process of drafting
the NSC directive. The visit to the building
under my control was for a briefing on CRS processes
for storage and retrieval of documents and is
apparently reflected in the paragraph of the
directive concerned with the Data Index. I visited
him in his White House office at least twice in
the company of an inter-Agency group concerned
with the Data Index.
2. In August of 1972,L______~ also

visited Mr. Young's office in the company of an
inter-Agency group to discuss CIA compliance with
the data index instructions . To the best of my
knowledge no one in CRS had any contact with
Mr. Young in his role as a "plumber."

involvements in domestic affairs. I do not believe
that CRS is doing anything that a reasonable
man could construe as improper.
2. CRS does, of course, have several programs

to acquire still Pictures, movies, videotapes
3. CRS files do not generally bear on U.S.

citizens or organizations. The biographic file-
building criteria specifically excludes U.S.
nationals unless the person has become of such
major importance in the political life of a foreign
country that the file is essential. (Tom knowledge,
onl 2 ersons so ualif .
Our Cuban files probably include

some persons who are now U.S. citizens but we
have no way to separate them; we have files on
U.S. defectors to Cuba.)

SUBJECT: Involvement In Domestic Affairs
4. The CIA Library has several informal

snag files intended to aid the librarians in
answering the kinds of questions that they know
they will get on a continuing basis. An
appointments file is a collection of clippings
on appointed federal officials: who holds what
job when and what is his background? The extremist
files are a collection of folders on a variety
of organization s and a few people with intricate
organization al links. Any sort of extremism
is grist for these particular files., And a few
persons, e.g., Rap Brown and Eldridge Cleaver,
have dossiers consisting almost exclusively of
clippings from public media. These files are
unclassified and consist mostly of clippings
from the public press: U.S., foreign, underground,
scholarly.
S. I am not aware of any other kind of

involvement in domestic activities that is not
related to development of techniques or logistics
or legitimate training of CRS personnel.

MEMORANDUM FOR: DDI
SUBJECT Sensitiv'e·Activities
1. FBIS has been ~ngaged in no activities related to the Ellsberg

and Watergate cases.
2. FBIS operations occasionally extend to the domestic arena. From

time to time, FBIS linguists are made available to DDO or Office of
n
Communications com onents for s ecial o erations usually abroad) involving
On one occasion
recently DDO, on behalf ·of :the FBI, requested the services of several:
FBIS linguists skilled in Arabic to work directl~~for the FBI on a short-
term project here in Washington. The arrangements were made by Mr. Oberg
of the DDO CI Staff. He said the project was very highly classified and
that FBIS. participationl~:w-as approved by Mr. Colby and the Director,/ ]i'BIS
participation was apprqyed by the Director of FBIS after a check with
the ADDI. Other exam:fe~'iof sensitive lin uistic support work are heip

Chinese linguist on two:\v,Occasions to assist in the U.s. military training
of Chinese Nationalist :'Cadets. •
3. Within its i1i~,,£,§#sibility for monitoring press agency tratj,1~~

missions for intellt[~~~½'ti~format ion, FBIS publishes and distrib,tft'.~s':•< ..·.
some material which ~~t~~:·:i.Ii;· a "gray" area of copyright protectiontlibel;
and privacy of interri.aiti-:L,onal communications. Press services cont-rolled
by national governmex:iiiitand transmitted by radioteletype without •. :;<,/,
specific addressees,:~Iif the Soviet TASS service and the PRC's NCNA,
are monitored by FBIS'.'j~ild,, the material is disseminated without restrie-
tion. The legality qf this has been affirmed by decisions of the
Office of General Counsel. /
OOZO:!
. \

4. The routine FBIS monitor ing of foreign radio broadca sts often
involves stateme nts or speeche s made by U.S. citizens using those radio
faciliti es. Example s are stateme nts made or alleged ly made by America n
POW's in Hanoi, by Jane Fonda in Hanoi and by Ramsey Clark in Vietnam .
At the request of FBI and the Departm ent of Justice , and with the
approva l of the CIA Office of General Counsel , we have on occasion sub-
mitted transcr ipts of such broadca sts to the Departm ent of Justice as
part of that Departm ent's conside ration of a possible trial. In such
cases, we. have been required to submit names of FBIS monitor s involve d,
presuma bly because of the possibi lity they might be require das witness es.
(In one case in 1971, an FBIS staff employe e was directed to appear as
an expert witness in the court-m artial of a Marine enlisted man charged
with aiding the enemy in a broadca st from Hanoi.) FBIS views all this
• with misgivin gs. Monitor ing of such broadca sts is inciden tal and we
ru~ attribut ion of their news to FBIS, and we should not be conside red
policeme n maintai ning surveill ance of travelin g America ns.

elicited the opinion that under the Freedom of Information

had one; if not, we could ask that the requester be specific

1. This memorandum is for your informa tion.

2. A liaison has been establis hed through Special Agent
James Graham of the FBI and their 4th of July Bicente nnial.
Command Post to provide this Agency with informa tion concern ing
terrori st activit ies. Special Agent Graham has been provide d

on terrori st activit ies on a timely basis.
3. Special Agent Graham was contacte d at·a:ppr oximate ly •

The 4th of July Coaitio n, which includes Actress
Jane Fonda, "Hurrica ne" Carter, and others will parade
in Washing ton, D. C. on the 4th of July. The FBI-bel ieves
that this group could number as many as 100,000 people.
The demons tration will draw from the.loc al populat ion,
due primari ly to the notriety of the individ uals. This
group, the only group to threaten violenc e so far, has
threaten ed to storm the Lincoln Memoria l. This group

For Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

The Federal Bureau of Investigation expects· some
violence in Philadelphia. This will result, they
believe, from the parades that are scheduled there.
The first and largest parade is the Legal City Parade
which should number approximately 60,000. A problem
may arise when the other two parades converge. One of
these parades is the Parent July 4th Coalition, who
expect to parade with between 60 and 100,0dO people.
The FBI advises that.buses have been chartered for
between 8,000 and 8,500 individuals. This group will
include Bras (phonetic) of the Puerto Rican Socialist
Group who have pledged some violence.
The more radical "Rich Off Our Backs" group will
number between 4,500 and 5,000 individuals and buses
have been chartered for this number of people. This is
a splinter group of the July 4th Coalition and has pledged
violence. The local police are attempting to keep the
three parades separated as much as possible; however~
the "Rich Off Our Backst' group are making plans to converge
on the other two which would undoubtedl~create chaos.
The Midwest Indian Situation
The FBI reports that they have no information on AHPs
plans for the 4th of July weekend. Russell Means, the
head of AIM seems to have established an airtight alibi
for th~ weekend, thereby causing the FBI some concern.
AIM's demonstration at the Little Big Horn Battlefield
during ceremonies there last week were very quiet and no
threats of violence.
At San Francisco, California
At San Francisco, California 3,000 - 4,000 members of
the People's Bicentennial.Commission will parade in Sari
Francisco. There have been no reports of any threats of
violence during this parade.
At Los Angeles, California
At Los Angeles, California 2,000 members of the People's
Bicentennial Commission expect to parade in Los Angeles ·with
no threats of violence.

SITUATION. INFORMATION REPORT

•
• The antiwar movement shows '10 signs of dissolving now

that the·war has apparently ended for the U.S. troops in Vietnam.
Leaders of the major peace organizations believe that the era of
massive demonstrations is ov.er. Thejr plans are vague, but the
-generals· of the peace movement wanrto play watchdog over U.S.
forces remaining in Southeast Asia~·
The following organizations have announced tentative plans:
People's Coalition for Peace and J:y.stice
Sidney Peck, national coordinator of the. PCPJ, and Rev.

Pa.ill Meyer announced the formation of a 11 citizens observatio_n .
-
. commission. " The commission will monitor the implementation_
of Article II of the Accords guaranteeing "lull personal and political
freedom to.all citizens of South Vietnam.I' Members of the commis-
sion will be composed of leading legislative, religious, and academic
figures in the U.S. As soon as the commission is completed and
visas secured, the names will be announced. The group will report
any infraction of the peace agreement they observe.
A "National Emergency Network" of 5,000 persons has been

established by PCP.J to lay the groundwork for new demonstrations·
should U. S. intervention be renewed.·
Reportedly, the PCPJ is considering a plan to demonstrate

because allegedly high-ranking U.S. military and civ~llan leaders
have caused war atrocities in Vietnam.

· . Late April, Nationwide •
In a n&w approach to the antiwar protest movement, the peace

activists in concert with many othe.r dissident groups _a_rc planning· a
spring orrenaive to highli1ht the economic impact of the War in Vietnam.
In addition tQ the past action• against the military-indu•trial..:establish-
ment which consisted of pickettln1, propagandizing, and various other
forms of liarassment and fta■ 11acently taken the. more violent Corm or
bomb threats and actual bombin1s. a new tactic has been adopted. The
New. Mobe is sponsoring reaional demorwstrations at stockholder's
meetings of major corporations doing war-related business. While
claiming that their actions will be peaceful and nondiaruptivc, it is •
highly unlikely that ■uch wllJ be the case. Some protest plannera have
• said that. no ·disruptions •~r• planned,· but some :acta of nonviolent
civil disobedience had not'l,ee~ ruled out. In order to gain entry into
the meetings, protesters have. 1athered proxies and will thus be entitled
to the rights and privile1ee. o( any stockholder. Protests have been
conducted at ■ everal stockholder'• meetings to date without serious
~isruption but considerable harasaing. •

Hopefully, the college 'and high achnt,l students, who. will probably
make up lh,e bulk. of the crowds, will have expended mnst nf their
energies and venom in earlier pro.tests, and· may be constrained
from senseless violont protea~ anc;! acts. However, with a hard
core of agitating, ltt'Ovo~ating young radical• in some o{ the groups.
the possibility of some "trashing" or even stronger action must not
be discounted. •

Although it seems unlikely that CIA facilities will be directly
threatened, it i.s possible that some prol!st may be directed at the

of Washington. Davis' action is clearly contrary to the wishc.s anrl
desires o( the CPUSA which believes such a tactic would be counter ..
productfre. At this. time it is a stronger possibility than ever that
Davis will indeed keep his own counsel and go his own· path this spring.
lf he does, hi.• e(forts could produce considerable disruption in the city
and considerable violence in clashes principally between his immediate
family of followers (th~ Ma.y Da.y Collective) and police authorities. The
May Day Collr.ctive, incidentally, is a radical, political commune . .

kidnaping and conspiracy stemming from .the shootout in the Ma.rin
County Courthouse in August 1970. At a press conference Davis
stated she will support all "political prisoners" and their fight for
freedom. Presumably, unless the event is cancellr.d, funds raised
at New York will be used to assist the so-called political prisoners.

One of the most difficult problems for t hcse protes(grou.ps is

attempting lo arrange· coordinated activities that' will have broad appeal
and contain a variety of issu_es and tactics wiU1 which the various
groups can find identity. To accomplish U1is end, it appears MCC h~s
implemented the following three strategies: First, it is exploiting the
participation of well-known personalities whoo.re not identified with any
particular group, such as Da.niel Berrigan, the radical priest, and
Jane Fonda the antiwar celebrity; secondly 1 it has designed a broad
"Scenario" of events to provide continuity for Urn various groups in-
volved; aJ\d third, it is continuing its rather novel appro:J.ch of t.?nterm.in-
inCJ and amusing U11? !;?lderly citizens of Miami Beach which ga.ined ~ide-

ThJ American Civil Liberti~s Unio:t has recently J::':!tHion-?d th~

high~:;t court ln the land· on b9haU of Vl"lcent L. March-~ttl. a fo:-?:1~\"
Cl:'r.tral I~tellla~:~c'! A'len::y ofllclal wro wants to publish a boo!< e·:<!A>~~ni

s,?quences of an ACLU victory in this case could be adverse to th~
security interests of the Intelligence Commu.-,Uy ..'
.. . ,
For the inform.atlon of th~ ::r;adcr, .the :American Civil Libe:-ties
Union (ACLU) was fowided in 1920 by Roger Baldwin, a former co~sd~:i-
tious objector and ex- convict. The organiz~Uon's national he_a:lq!ta:tc:.·s
\'133 established in New York City. and has F~main~d L'l1'ra since its C!"~a-
tion. • • .. ,
..., .
Baldwin's philosophy set the starJe foi• future dev~lopment or the

ACLU o't"ganization. \ 1/hen Baldwi~ first organized the Union, he w·.:is
h~ad of the civil liberties bureau of th~ American Unio:, Agninst MUi-
-
tari3m, a pactflst organi.zation which op!X)sed U.S. c:1tr-1 into V/orld
V/~r T. Ife bel!eved in civil lihertie5, not as an e~d in th~sglv9s, but
as a rneans to an end. In a letter to the Nevr Yorlc Ti mes· in 1933, Baldwin
clarified his vie.wpolnt on the above issue-- ''Civil liberti'?s like democ-
racy are useful only as tools ior social change." 'Mr. Baldwin ri,,mained
as Executive Director of ACLU from 1920 until 1050.
During its first fetv years the organization consisted of a conglom-
eration of lawyers, social workers, lib~ral reformers and radic3ls.
Among them ·were Jim Addams, John 0-!wey; Felix Frankfurter, Norl":!an ·' •
Thomas and William Z. Foster, later chairman of the American Commu-
nist Party. •• • •
From the start, the ACLU constitution declar~d that its pi.u-posa •
vras to "maintain ·and advance civil liberties, lneluding the ·freedoms of
associations, press, r~ligion, and speech ..... without political partisan-

The above first source and a second reliable
source advi~cd that the principal speaker was Jane Fonda.
She spob~ about h0.r experiences during her recent trip to
- Hanoi, North Vietn~~m, in July, 1972. Her talks were
accompanied by slides in color and monochrome, evidently
mode in North Victnum and showing her to~cthcr with her hosts . .
Th~ themes of the sp~ech were: the heroism of the Victnom2se
people, their determirn1tion to fight against all odds until
victory is ~on, the significance of the dikc5 for the
Victnmnesc ;igricu 1 tural society, and the guilt of the United
States for 1 ombing these dikes just before the rainy season.

"Can you hear now? All right. Welcome. I would
like to thank all the people who helped us in bringing Jane

:-onda here and all those who didn't give us so much help, but
we were stren~thened through adversity. At this time I would
like to iOtroduca K~tlo~k-who is instrumental in bringing
Jane to Greeley last fall and she has an introductory speech. ~
Okay."
Applause.
Kay Whttlock:
'Don't worry, it's not even anything like an introduction
sDeech. ·Ber~echt (pho~~tic) once wrote some words about a
r,0ciety, it was not an American society, and it happened in the
thirties and forties in Germany, and he wrote, "They came for the
Jews, h11t I was not a Jew so I did nothing. They came for the
Communists, but I was not a Communist so I did nothing. They
'I
' c~me for the opposition parties, but I was not a member so I
..

d~d nothing. Then they came for me, and there was no onel left
'
t0 care." Oh, perhaps present day American, today societJ,

i~m't so much .cliff ent from that. Let's chan..---, a few of the
words. They came for the Vietnam war protestors, but I was not
a protestor so I did nothing. They came for t~ledad

Rrothers, but I was not a Soledad brother so I did nothin~.
They came for Los Sieta de ~ z a (phone~ic), but I was not a
memher so I did nothing. When carried to its logical conclusion,
we know what would happen except in present day America there
happened to he a few people who really care about freedom and
when I s~y care I mean those are the types of people that under-
stAn<l tha~ when any one person-or any group of people lose any
of their liberties that none of the rest of us are free. Ladies
and ~entlemen, it is a great honor to be able to introduce to
you a wnman who really does care. Miss Jane Fonda."

"You will forgive but I really need to see you. I
----=-- _. nm sure you understand. Thank you very much. I ' would like to
tell you about an event that took place January 31 and February

things that's happened in a long time in this country and which

@ (t}
It wns war crimes investigation sponsored by 2,000 veterans
nnd r1n organ.izatioi. called Vietnam Veterans Ag·'t. ... nst .the War.
A hundred and thlrty veterans, officers and enlisted men, black, ·
_w hite, Ch i.cano, Asian, Indian, came from all over the country to
netroit to te_s tify first-person testimony about the war crimes
trey had committed in Southeast Asia. The purpose of it was to
shm.i the American people that the Hy Lai massacre is not an
isolated incident. That it happens perhaps on a lesser scale
hut that it happens daily in Southeast Asia and more important, .
that these atrocities are the result not of aber-r antit: individual
.'·
i-
ryehavior but of the policies that are formulated in Washington
hy our leaders, by the CIA, by the Joint Chiefs of Staff and
by the Pentagon. There are international laws which we help
draw up and which we as a country ratify which state very clearly
what war crimes are and who war criminals are and weoare violating
those international laws daily in Vietnam and Cambodia and Laos~
Por three days these men testified by unit. For ex~ple, there
.1
wnuld be fifteen or twenty men from the 101st Airborne representing
the entire time span of the 101st Airborne was present in Vietnam,
and one hy one they talked about what they had done and what had
been done to them in the form of basic training. How from the
time they stepped foot on the military bases in this country they

nre told that the r • ly good gook is a dead goo 1~ They are
tr~ined to kill, killing is glorified, particularly•in the
Marine Corµa. One man said that the last thing his company was
shown be£ore they were shipped overseas was a rabbit. Their
officer held up a live rabbit by the feet, ripped open its gut, .
took out the insides of the rabbit and threw them out at the men
in the audience, saying, "Here you are now. Go," and a man stood -
up shaking. He had fought in the Second World War and he could

not believe his ears, and he said, "How many of you witnessed
thi~ kind.of thing?" and all"h~nds but two went up. This ·is the
-
kind of thing that our·men are sent overseas with. They talked
ah0ut how they were trained at Fort Holabird, Maryland, in<l
prisoner of war interrogati<n tactics where it is implied that

there are ways to get information from prisoners, attaching
field radios · to the genitals. You then crank the field radios·
and they send electric current through the body of the prisoner
oE war. The degree of current depends on how fast you crank the
field radio. One by one the men talked about the massive '.
'
tndiscriminate killing of civilians in the presence of officers,
how bad a standard operating procedure, the massive rapes, the

, skinning alive, the cutting off heads and hands and ears and
fin~ers, the wearing them around their necks and their waists,
tPe rapes of Vietnames~ women with their children in thet

arms, the putting them on posts, on bamboo posts, in the ·villages

for all to see. 1 .re was a panel on weaponr) . .nd there were
Pxperts that showed us documented evidence that we are dropping
chemicals on Southeast Asia, that ate causing children by the
hundreds to be born with fins instead of hands, with no feet,
with no tenr ducts, with soft craniums rese~bling what we call,

heing a racist country, Mongoloid idiots. That is not what.
the Vietnamese call them. The Government denies using this kind
of chemical that causes this kind of chromosome damage. There
is documented evidence, there are photographs, American delegations
have witnessed seeing these children with their eyes. They

talked .about the anti-personnel weapons all of which constitute
war crimes, the guava bombs, the monkey bombs, the plastic bombs, .
the pineapple bombs, that are meant not to kill people but to
mutilate and mame them, to tie up the hospitals, the doctors and
the nurses and to demoralize the civilian population. We're
using these daily in South Vietnam and Cambodia and there is

• evidence that we are using them in Laos because just the other -
dE!fb the New York ''Times" it was revealed that we accidentally
drop anti-pers·onnel weapons on the South Vietnamese troops.
There are bombs that land on the ground and send out what look
ltke tiny, little pieces of colored fabric, gay pieces of
' ·f.ahric, which are a scarcity in South Vietnam. The child~n

impossible to remove. People in Vietnam are having to spend the

rest of their lives with plastic and steel pellets in their

bodies, causing excrutiating pain. They talked about the

I-
that we're using that are turning whole areas of Southeast Asia !I

into wastrl.ands where leaves may never grow again, where animals

Nixon is right now trying to us·e the POW issue to arouse our
rage to support an escalation of the war into the North. There I

t
is a man, he has worked for the State nepartment, his name is r
Johyan Dyke and he is the only··scholar who has researched

every allegation into the mistreatment of prisoners of war and he ·
I
\
••
stated at the hearing that the treatment of American prisoners i
\
l
of war in Southeast Asia is more humane than any treatment of l

prisoner of war in Asia in the last century, including our
treatment -0f Korean and Japanese prisoners of war. There were
men who 'testified who had been in the north who had seen the
priso(i\ r who had brought out some of the nine prisoners who had
J
been released, who corroborated John VanDyke's statement. The

i
itreatment is not barbaric, There were three prisoners, flrmer ..., .
6
prisoners, of the (. F, two men and a woman anc ' •·heir stories
were va-ry interesting.. They said how the officers complained

about having to eat the same food that the Vietnamese have to eat~
(Inaudible) it is called, and so the Vietnamese at great pains
managed to get a hold of sardines, which are considered a

delicacy in South Vietnam and in North Vietnam and gave these
to the officers in prison; well, of course, they don't like
surdines either, our professional officers, rile)' are slightly

spoiled in this count.r y and so they complained about that, too.
Some of t71em got fat and some of them lost weight. They
complained ahout having to lie to sleep in the same conditions

that the Vietnamese do, the Vietnamese guards, they didn't

want to have to sleep on the straw mats on the ground and so lI

they were provided with foam rubber mattresses, many of them. i

Geor 9e"Smith, who has a very interesting book, who was a prisoner _
for many years .of the NLF and has a book coming out soon that I
--- -- -· - hope- you a11 · will read, said that in fact the nIIEtreatment
wa~ more in the way the officers treated the Vietnamese guards,
I

--. I
'
slnr.ans that become standard operating procedure within the military, ~
, when talking about the Vii!tnames e pea p le • They said that they I
had not been mistreated that the main purpose of the NLF was to
t ·ry to talk about and explain what their struggle is all Jabaut,
. 1,
TTow they did this ~Jt by brainwashing or coerc .. n, they did it
by rapping, conversations, by giving them books to read about

·.,.
Vietnamese history and Vietnamese culture and talking about the
struggle that they have been waging for many, many, many years
and centuries to overcome futilism and to create some kind of
equai ity among the classes in ·~outh Vietnam, and this is;i~:tlcr,
in fact,wiat the struggle is all about: first to rid their
country of outside aggressors and then to establish equality

among the classes in South Vietnam, and they said that when they
.,I
were released they knew they could never go back to Vietnam and •
fight these people, because they understood the justice of their

struggle. I think it is terribly interesting that Nixon only
tnlks about the rows in the North. There are many, there are
many American men and women in prisons in the South, but Nixon
doe~n't talk about them, although he professes to have great
concern about prisoners of war because we have already invaded

-- -- r -
the South and thnt doesn't serve his purposes. He is concentrating
on the North because we have yet to have a massive invasion of

the North. I nm sure that you all are aware of the fact, I
ho~e you are, that the best thing we can do for our POWs is to
'end the war and bring all of the men home. It is not by bombing
'it1: North or staging the Sontay raids that we are in any iay

Sontay raid. In the supporting actions for the attempt to j - --- .
free the POWs at Sontay, for instance, a factory was hit by a

white phosphorous bomb and wiped out. A sanitarium was hit in

the same area with six patients killed and seven wounded. In I.

'
nnd Hatai Province which includes the Sontay target area for

equal that of an American pilot. I also think it's interesting
that when the nine prisoners were released from the North, ....,

C~irsh, who is the jour-c:1a_list who broke the My Lai: story,

.'/ .
he works for the Dispatch News Service in Washington, has done
an extensive article on POWs and has spent a great deal of time
i.ntervi.ewing Fri:diman and admitted to Cy Hirsh that he has lied,
tl•at he has been traveling around this country saying that they
were tortured and that it is a lie. That, in fact, what he
said at a press conference in Kennedy Airport when he first
crn'!le· out 0€ prison was the truth. What he said was that the
treatment_was okay,_ but the Peo~agon is allowing these men to
trav~l around and I think it should be very clear why they're
doin~ that and the time has come for us to know the facts and to
~rt them out to the people, to the public, we must cut the
~round out from under this most cynical manipulative tactic of
the Nixon Administration to make American people support an
escalation of war, of the war into the North. On the same panel
there wer.e American POWs interrogators talking about how they
treated POWs, Vietnamese POWs. Besides the field radios there
wel'."e endless stories nbout . the throwing of prisoners out of
he 1 icoptP.rs, making, to force ,I:- frighten the remaining ones
, intn tnJking. One man talked about how they put? prisoners
, 1 into ca~es with boa constrictors and sat around at night iistening
!to the screams of the men as they were crushed by the snales.
On this •same panel there were veterans who talked about tle
~ ~
8 e}
treat~erit that they received in the stockades and brigs in
( r f_ •
America and the loiJg Binh jail and if we're wo4ried. about the
lnhuinane treatment of prisoners we better address ourselves to

the way our sons and brothers and husbands are being treated in
I •.. . •
the stockades stat-es: ide. There are t iRer cages on the bases
I
;
•i •
in this country. There are men being beaten with rubber hoses, t
chained to walls, put into sweat boxes and anyone who has ever ·
been in a · stockade will know what I'm talking about, particularly ·
tf you're not white. There was a panel of military reporters, '!

I
i
ahout fifteen of 'em who talked about how the body counts are L'
tI '
l
'
systemat.lcally falsified, how the American casualties are
minimized and how the enemy body counts are multiplied five
'
anci sometimes ten times, how any dead body is called Viet Cong; I'
l
I
_ lf it's a dead p.ook, he's a V.C. and that one body is counted by }
the Air Force, it's counted by the Marine Corps, it's counted l
bv all of the different groups that come into the area. They I ·
!
t~lked ahout how their reporting of many of the military actions
are censored, red slashes through them, they can't get the truth
out. One very good example of how little we know about what is
going on over there is revealed in the name of the present mobilizatkn

t,
the present ·: invasion of Laos. Have any of you asked yourselves I' ,
J .
why lt is called Dewey Canyon, 117 It is because there was a

f.
, tnewey
l Canyon, I. J
We invaded Laos, the third Marine Divis on, l
.
!·in 19~9, and nobody knew about it, including Congress. T ere
was a panel of Black veterans and Asian veterans and an American ~
Inclian veteran ~ they made the most imp_o ~ t link between
. . .
tl,e racism, that / ~ practiced against the Vie1n~mese people
<.:
nnd tt,e rn~ism that they as non-white people have experienced
in this country and in the military and how they are discriminated
a~alnst most cruelly and severely. The Indifln GI made a state-
ment which I found particularly moving. He said as a child he r .

l
l _.
w~s made to feel so ashamed of being an Indian that when he went
to see a movie about cowboys and Indians he rooted for the
cowboys. Try to understand what that means, try to put yourself
ln hts shoes and understand what that means and you will maybe
have an i_nkling of our self-ri~htous ethnocentricity. How I

'I .
I
terrible it is that we.white folk can do that to peo?le who i
I
drm 't look like us, make them that ashamed of the color of their
sl:in. It became terribly clear to every single man, woman and
child present at that investigation that the Vietnam War is not
an accident, that it did not happen in a vacuum. Politically,

.
'
· '•
sncially, racially or in anJ other way we are fighting that
w~r - a country that can fight that kind of genocidal racist

---- .,
war is a country that has a history of genocide and racism.
t·l e are in Vietnam because we are in California. We are in
Vietnam because we' re in Texas. We ripped that off from the
Mexicans. The system which allows My Lai Massacres to happen
. is c1 system which allows Siouxs to be massacred; which have

important for us to understand that in dealing with the war
and in talking about peace, we must deal . with racism. That's
not just rhetoric - those aren't just empty words. Because

lf we don't we will continue to commit those kind· of wars.
We must understand the relationship between sexism and the war

as I did at the investigation. One man after another said, "I l
l
went over there and I did what I did because I had to prove I L
had balls." Those were their words.
man, I was afraid - of being c'alled a sissy."
"I had to prove I was a
Well, what kind
I
of country are we that·make men prove themselves that way? ·
It was interesting that the men talked the way they did about the
'
,.
I
·,
I'
!
'
fact that the Vietnamese women are armed and are fighting along
side the men to free their country from outside aggressors.
The men made it very clear that as long as they were fighting
men it was a serious business, it was okay, but that women are
anned was more than the American Gis could stand. It is all
rlRht for the Vietnamese women to be prostitutes and it is
important for us to understand theyc are prostitutes because

of the economic devastation of their country and it is in
,many cases the only way they can feed their children, and so
in dealin~ with the war and in talking about peace, we haye /
'
'•
'.t to deal wi.th sexism and male chauvinism or we will be up '
ar,ainst the same problems again and again and again. Now after
! t•
V u ·
•i O ~..
· • •
on was over an d we realized that in fact no
~
l
t,e Lnv~stigat
(
responsible press ~overage was forthcoming, we call~d many of the .
netwarka and many of the newspapers and we asked them why • .
And they said we have done our job, we have covered the My Lai
trials and we have from time to time shown photographs of POWs
being thrown out of helicopters and things like that. We have
done our job and since I prefer not to think there is a conspiracy
I
afoot I believe that they were sincere. I think they really

helieved they've done their job, What they completely neglect I.
I
to real iz·e is that by· showing photographs from time to time of

a POW betng thrown out of a helicopter or to report the My Lai
trials the way they are being reported is missing the entire point
which once again is that these things happen daily, that they are
not i.solated incidats and that they are the result of policy ...
To give you a very clear example, free fire zones are areas in
whi.ch anything that moves, man, woman, child, water buffalo
you name it ·- if it moves, it is to be shot. That constitutes

-- - - - -
; ··- ·- - - -•-.
a war crime. Now it is not the low-grade officers, it's no~ the
Galleys or the Torezs who decide what areas will be free fire
zones, that's decided in Washington. My Lai was dat: a free fire

I .
i
zonP.. Then there's such things as the CIA Phoenix Program which
.is a _pror.ram of assassination of anyone suspected, any civilian

' 1su~pP.cted,
t of being an NLF supporter. Their names are put;' on
\.. fhl:k list~ and ~hat the soldiers call- assassination te~J go
into these areas and assassinate these people. Most of the

list. The CIA's Phoenix program constitutes a war crime.

'
Strato•level bombing constitutes a war crime, that means when . [J . ~
the planes fly and bomb from so high up that they can't see
what their tRrgets are. Pacification program, which means the
forced removal of civilians from their villages and towns into

concentration camps, otherwise known as strategic hamlets,
constitutes a war crime according to international law. Now
all of these things are policy created in Washington and by trying
the low-grade officers for MY. Lai massacre without trying the
men who are responsible for the policies that constitute war
crimes is as though at Nuremberg we tried Cpl. Schultz or Sgt.
Schmidt and not Hitler and Goering and Goebels and Himmler and
Sryeer, the architects of the genicidal policy against the Jewish

people. The veterans are not saying that Calley and the others
are to be exonerated• they are simply saying that we have to begin
to look to where the final and ultimate responsibility truly is.
Ano it's terribly important for the American people to understand

this is not a figment of our imagination. These things are being
done - it's called genocide and it's being conmitted in~our name\
~ nd we just have to face that fact. There are transcripts of the
entire three-day hearings which will be available in a couple of

if you want me to repeat it I will do so. The soldiers, one by
one as they got up to take their place on the panel took off
their sacred hearts - their purple hearts, their silver stars,
their bronze stars, their metals of honor and dropped them in a
big basket marked ''waste" and when the entire investigation was
over they crossed over the river into Windsor, Canada, and they
met with Vietnamese students. It was very moving because the
lnst time most of these men had seen Vietnamese they saw them
as gooks and they were killing.them. Well, these men have
changed and they embraqe the Vietnamese people and together
they sir,ned the Joint People's Peace Treaty and they all cried.
All these men that had been so concerned about proving they
were heroes said we can cry, we understand what we have dooe and
we will commit our lives to changing this country so that this
kind of thing is never done again. (Applause). With that as
openers I would now like to talk to you about the ?eople's
Peace Treaty. Which is probably the most important thing that
has happened politically in this country since the inception
of the movement. To understand the importance of the treaty-

what it means - it is necessary to kind of give a background of
_the conditions in the war today which are very different than
• !they were a couple of years ago. It is first of all essetial

that we understand that when Nixon says he is bringing the troops

in tactic, change in the .~stn.:unentation of
our policy. He has taken our slogan "Bring the Troops Home"
and he's turned them back on us, he's found a way of doing it
and escalating the war at the same time because the ground
trooos are being replaced with technology - with bombing and newer
and more sq:histicated and deadly kinds of weapons~ Now there
are reasons why the troops are bing withdrawn, it's not just
because we have been asking for it. One of the reasons is .. r
because the troops haven't been fighting. This ·has been going
on for about since a year and a half. It began, the complexion

of the war on the ground, began to change following the Tet J

dle for it. As a result the troops are used, the units have
heen used, primarily over the last year and a half, as maneuver
elements which means they are moved from place to place in the
hopes of keeping the other side on the move, in the hopes that
the NLF will expose their positions but if there is even one
sniner fire that comes from a village the troops drop back
sixty or seventy meters and they call in the air strike and the
artillery and it is the machines that do the work. In order 'i

to ·get the soldiers to do even that much the brass is having

because he \nows if he does he's gonna get £ragged. Now the

first time I heard about fragging was about, it was over a year
·a go, a soldier who had just come back from DaNang told me in
his company if they had an officer that in any way endangered
the lives of his men they would put a price on his head. Each
man would contribute a certain amount of money and the one who .-··
'.
fragged him which means roll:irg :afragmentation grenade under his

about openly. Now if ''Life" magazine is talking about £ragging ,.·
can you imagine what is going on over there? \'

(Applause.) '
I • ' ..
I am not condoning this by no matter of means. I am
·s imply telling you what is a fact of life in South Vietnam today.

]I: is, of course, not true that every soldier does this,
participates in it or even kbows that it happens but it is on a
wide enour,h scale that even the Pentagon can't hide it from the
\'
public any more. The units when they get sent out on patrol now
go just far enough so they _can't be seen and stay far enough
anart so that there's no feedback between the radios and lie down ,.

that showed officer.9 and enlisted men and a corrnany, whose
( • '
name I can't remember, passing around pipes, smoking joints,

talking about it very openly, of course, there was a Pentagon
official afterwards saying it's not happening. But there it
was on national television.
I·
(Applause.) I
It showed them with an M-16 rifle. They put a pipe

into the chamber of the rifle and blow it in such a way that the
· ~moke comes · out the barrels and the men stand around in a semi-
circle ann go (inhale).

(Applause.)
They found a way to use their guns.
(Laughter and applause.)
Despite the concessions, despite the new mod look the
Army is trying to start up, a new kind of liberal face to the
Army, the desertion rate, our desertion rate has tripled in

the last three years.
(Applause.)
Our desertion rate is almost the equivalent of the
desertion rate of the Vietnamese army. It is the Vietnamization
of the American army which . is taking place.

it is not organized, it is if you like each man for himself,
nobody wants to be the last GI out of there and nobody wants

to he the last corpse. But it is nrutiny and it has changed the l
face of the war. Some reporters, former Green Berets, went !j
over to interview the soldiers after the Paris Peace Talks were l·
convened .to find out what effects the peace talks were having on
the soldiers and, of ·course,. what they found out was that the
I
Paris Peace Talks weren't having any effect on the soldiers,
I •
it was the soldiers that had an effect, played an instrumental t
f.
'j
part in forcing our Government to convene the Paris Peace r .
Talks. That is one of the reasons why the troops are being
pulled out. Another reason is that we have discovered over
the years that we cannot fight a peoples' war, by conventional
means. We have lost, we really have. And so we have changed

tactics, it is called Vietnamization Program and in the words
of. Ellswortl~ke~, t~ere' s always somebody in there that gives

the truth away, the only difference with the Vietnamization

behind this chan~e of tactics when he says and I quote, that

mP.chanical and conventional power on such a massive scale

as to produce a massive migration from countryside to city.
It is called forced urbanization. Vietnam has always been a
rural society and that is the power base of the National
Liberation rront. We are destroying the countryside and forcing
people to the cities. There are right now eight million

refugees living in the most horrible urban ghettos. These
ghettos are not the by-product of the war, they are the very

support the National Liberation Front and many of them have joined
the National Liberation Front. They talk openly, arid at great
risk, of peace, national reconciliation, reunification. What
they are asking_ for, their demands:,. the demands of the people
who advocate peace, neutrality and democracy in South Vietnam

is totally compatible with the demands put forward by Madam
nimh last ~eptember for the ~rovisional Revolutionary Govermnent.

The PRG's_eight-point peace proposal. That is terribly
important. You have on the one hand the supposed enemy position , ,·
'
and· on the other hand you have the position of our counterparts,
the people of South Vietnam, and their demands are virtually one
and the same. They are the conditions for peace. Before I go
further I would like to just give a very brief explanation of what
PHG and NLF stands for because for many people it's just a lot
of alphabet soup. We hear a lot of talk about Viet Cong which is ~
---- ~
a misnomer. Viet Cong means Vietnamese Communists and it gives
one the impression~~ and that is why it is used, that everyone
thRt we are fightirgare Vietnamese Conmrunists fighting for J •
CoTTll'!lunism. That is simply -not true. The National Liberation ,l

is made up not only of the National Liberation Front but of an

· organizatlon called the Alliance f>r Peace, Nationalist and . : :·-
I . ·..
._.::
Democratic Forces, which is a much more conservative f I •
I· .
organization made up of upper middle class, urban people who I
advocate, among other things, the private ownership of the
means of production. And the alliance is equally represented
on the Provisional Revolutionary Qovernment with the National

l lberatiQJl Front. Now there· are four negotiating groups at ·
the Paris Pence Talks,·the United States, the South Vietnamese
Saigon Regime, the National, the Provisional Revolutionary
Government, from the south, and the DRV, the Democratic

Republic of Vietnam from the north. Now our administration,
the administration, somebody's administration, in Washington
constantly gives the impression that the primary negotiations
nrust take place between the United States and the DRV from .
the north despite the fact that the DRV says repeatedly, we
do not speak for the ~rovisional Revolutionary Government, we
support their demands but it is to them that you must address
/'°'-trself if you are to· achieve peace in South Vietnam. The

,.
from the north but not the provisional Revolutionary Government.

It is the demands put forward by the PRG that state very clearly
the conditions for peace. And again I emphasize these conditions
are the same that are being put forward by the people who are
massively organizing in the cities of South Vietnam in opposition
to the war. There are two key notes, cornerstones around r .
which everything revolves. The first is the United States must
publicly set a date for withdrawal. The date that the PRG proposed
I
was June 30th, 1971. That is probably inspired by the i''
McGovern-Hatfield Amendment and it is probably negotiable. The

,.
nate is negotiable. What is not negotiable is the need to set
r.
the date and they've made it very clear - it was laid right out f
there in their eight-point peace proposal, that once that date
is set every issue that has ever been raised by U.S. negotiators
in Paris can be resolved. Before the troops have moved talks
c~n be begun for the release of prisoners of war and steps can
rl
be taken for the safe withdrawal of our troops. The second

key note involving the political solution is that we must stop
,the imposition of Thieu, Ky and Kiem on the people of
, ,- fouth Vietnam. The South Vietnamese laughingly say when ~he last }
GI is out of Vietnam, Thieu, Ky S:nd Kiem will be on the . i ;
P.iviera. Nobody, . except the American public, believes that. Thieu, '

quote T, C~uglas of t~-~ "'~o~i~li~t Party ·o f C~n-~~~! "saying • - I .
that, . ~eu, Ky and Kiem have asked us to come there and

help them is like saying that Charlie McCarthy invited Edgar
Bergen to dinner." I mean it's just a joke.
(Applause.)
We must stop the imposition of Thieu, Ky and Kiem
on the people of South Vietnam so that they can form a
provision~! coalition governme~t for the limited purpose
of holding free democratic elections in South Vietnam.
This coalition government, according to the PRG's eight-point

proposal, will be made up of three parts. Elements of the PRG,
tbe preRent Saigon government and representatives of the other

reli~ious and political factions of South Vietnam who advocate
' '
a oeace and neutrality, and democracy. The only thing they '
ask, and as Madrun Bimh said, we have fought a quarter of a

--- '
century to exclude three men, Thieu, Ky and Kiem. Now, in the
li~ht of these most explicit and clear and just and honorable
dernnnds, Nixon's five-point peace proposal put forward on

national television just prior to the election which seemed to
. be because he really most grievously misrepresented their
!political position an attempt to, at sabotaging the ParisllPeace

..I
Talks. He disregarded the fact that the PRG has made ext a- J.

were_ not, what was it - new wine and old bottles or·old wine
and new bottles or whatever, the metaphor was. They represent ..

I· ' •'
I •
a whole new position, they represent the conditions for peace. I •
'
He said that the PRG was demanding the dismembennent of the
Saigon eovernment, making it possible for the takeover by one

party and the say so as to who was to be excluded and who ex-
cluded in that government. It is simply not true. And you must

~et a hold of the PRG's eight-point proposal and read it very
carefully~ You will see they are saying kee~ the Saigon ;-t •
government, just these -three men who are traitors to their

people must be excluded and we_ only want to be one-third
of a coalition government and only until elections can be held.
So that the people can decide for themsleves what kind of I

'' .

~overnment they want. Now what are Nixon's alternatives,
I mean if he wants peace he has to address himself to these
________c_ondttions for peace. The Vietnamization program is not .f

He can continue the bombings and the defoliation and the
chemicals and the, all the other deadly weapons that we

are crashing and spewing out on Southeast Asia. We have
seen, however, and it's so very interesting that although

we can kill millions of people and destroy their countryside,
militarily they keep coming with their little floppy sandals
and their flimsy uniforms and their little bowls of rice and little
books of poetry and song and their underground university
which moves around as the army.does in which they teach people
song and dance and cul~ure, they keep coming because they know
why they're fighting. The keep coming because the Vietnamese
struggle is truly a struggle of the people and by the pe·o ple
and for the people. Those are American words but unfortunately
they are not American deeds. Theykeep coming, proving, in the

themselves how come. How come that little country with

fighting was a litrle terrorist band isolated from the people,
l i
the war wnuld have been over long ago, long ago. You don! t ·
i
fight that kind of war, unless -you 're fighting for your ·- - L.
freedom the way our forefathers fought the British for our
independence. They are fighting with a true revolutionary
spirit and they have become the conscience of humanity and they
are inspiring the p~ressive people all around the world. And
it is that that we are fighting. It is tragic but it is that
that we are fighting. We did not send troops there because of
an infilt;_ration from the north~ because it is a proven,
I:
documented fact today that when we began to send troops to South
Vietnam there were more American "advisors' than there were
i-
North Vietnamese. That, in fact, it was our presence in the h
I·
s011th that provoked the North Vietnamese to come down and help
the people who were fighting for their freedom. Nor are we
fir,htin~ a Chinese threat. If we were worried about a Chinese
thrent we would not be invading Laos and we would not be wiping

Vietnam, has been for centuries the maturall enemy of China. And
while we're on the subject of China, can you imagine what the
United States would do if -China invaded Canada? I mean think

about how up-tight we get about Cuba. Well, our -invading Laos
t
is the equivalent of China invading Canada, and how lon~ran
we expect China to sit back and do nothing and how long Jill I

We are fighting in South Vietnam a war of example.

if there is any doubt about that, about whose side we are on,
look at the count~ies in wich _o ur flag is flying and how
trar,ic it is. There is.not a fascist regime on earth that could
survive without the economic and military presence of the
United States, Spain, Greece, Guatemala, Brazil, Argentina,
Panama, Columbia; the list is endless. And we must think a lot
about that because when we pull out of Vietnam the problem is
not goinr, to be over. There is a problem. It's called •
imperialism and it is destroying us and it is destroying
the world r.nd it is up to us, the American people

newspapers today about the ·use of tactical nuclear weapons.
One has the impression that we are being kind of prepared slowly
so that when it, happens, if it happens, we won't mind. We cannot
let that ha~pen. We truly cannot let that happen. C. L.

Schul tzber1;er on November 15 ,- ~ti the New York Times, he's the
Chief Correspondent fo~ the New York Times, said conventional
warfare doesn't work, full-out nuclear warfare is an impossibility,
so it seems that there is a third solution which is tactical
nuclear warfare. · These ki~d of things are kind of being
laid out from time to time and we must watch for them and we
must be very aware of what that means. Reports from our
Vietnamese friends tell us that it looks like there may be
tactical nuclear weapons used very soon in Southeast Asia.
In Laos the people we are fighting live in caves because of the

and I hope you will all get it and read the article .by ~ni~S-

t.
I!
/ Garrett (l\honetlc) on Nixon's new strategy in Vietnam. At the
;, '/ I / ·
end of that article it talks, after probing Schultzberger's
article on tactical nuclear warfare, it talks about a new kind
of atomic device developed by NATO which makes rocks crumble, it
sort of puts out a radiation barrier and can make mountains
cave in and it would appear that this kind of weapon would
be perfectly suited to the war we are now waging in Laos.
It is a truly real.danger. lhere are six thousand nuclear
warheads deployed and ~eady for use in Okinawa, in the China

seas and in Thailand right now, right now. Now the Vietnamese
.
•
~re brave, they defeated Kubla Khan (phonetic), they defeated
the Chine~ they defeated the French, the Japanese, they've

defeated every country that has ever tried to occupy them but
there is just so much they can do. They can~t take the planes
out of the skies. We can, the American people. They cannot
stand up to nuclear weaponsl:ut we can take the nuclear weapons
out of the war and we can end the war and it is only we that can
do it. That's just a fact. Our administration will not do it.
\ie hnve voted in peace candidates; 73 percent of the people in
)
this country want an end to the war and the war continues. The
;
' £ . \
{top structure of our Government has failed us and when that
t i
( ~
' happens we go to the ground structure, we, the people of America.

. .
'
~le cnnnot rely upon .Nixon to negotiate a peace, ;reaty and so

( . . ( \
we have our own peace treaty. It was framed last NQvember by
a delecatlon of student body presidents sponsored by the National
~tudent Association who went to the North and South of Vietnam
I •.
..,·
and met with their counterparts, the student unions from the
• North and the fouth. These two documents were taken from the
North a·nd the ~outh to Paris where they were officially joined
to~ether into the feoples' ~eace Treaty which has been brought
hack to thi.s country and is being taken onto every campus,
high school, church group, YI-:tCA, corrmunity organization, professional
organization, garden c~ub, golf club, you name it, the treaty is
goin~ there to he ratified and then implemented by the American
people. Now it's a kind of difficult thing for us to understand 1 '
the signific~nce of this treaty and to understand really what it

means. We are -so, we are so imbued with a sense of powerlessness~
\ le iu·e trained from the time we are that high that we don't really
hnve power, we are drilled with the idea of individualism, each
man for himself, wlich is, of course, the kind of thing that keeps·
peonle apart and competitive and so when people see a treaty
that wasn't negotiated in Washington, they say but it's not
offLcial. That means that. we don~t. take ourselves seriously
, .\ and we don't recognize our own powers. We have power, we . just

l
{ have to start learning to use it as workers did when th~y \
l
i i
foti'led their unions as people all over the world who have ~
struggled to change their country know. Our government has
34 -------.....
f.atled us. Genocide is being comnitted in our names and we
must stop it.
r r~
We \uust declare ourselves at pe~~e with the
.. Vletnamese people. The Vietnamese ~ay over and ov.er again -
and it is so very moving, we are not at war with the American
people. We know that no people on earth would fight the kind
of war that is being fought against us. We know that it is your
~nvernment thAt is fi~hting the war in your names. The

I
t-
• Ame~ican pPo~le are not our enemy, it's American imperialism.
1. ./Pl 1, we mu~t understand that we are not the enemies of the
Vietnamese people. This is not a petition. A petition is a

i
request. This is not a protest. We've gone far beyond protest. ·
This is a declaration. It is an opportunity for every individual

I
•
anri
at
•-:roup i.n this coµntry to declare themselves out of the war,
peace with the Vietnamese people. There are two stages to the .
l
-li
l
peace treaty. The first is the ratification and the organizing f
stnr,e. We must meet together in groups, with our constituencies,
with our friends, women together, men together - however you get
tn~ether, qnd organize and discuss what the conditions for peace
~e~n. Talk shout it among your friends who aren't here,

•
t,-:i 1<e tt 011t lnto the conununity. Talk to your teachers about
it. Have them discuss it in class or if you can't do that,

J
on i.t outsi.<le of class. I know how hard it is to talk about

' .
fanythln~ serious in class.
·,
'
t, (Applause.)
Wl"lich ls somethin~ we have to do somet~ing ab~1t, too.
( • f \
Afterwards if you want me to read the peace treaty I will .
. tn essence, the nine points of the peace treaty cover pretty
much what I have said in terms of conditiors and peace and I will
read lt to you afterwards if you like. The ratification process
meRns that we will he learning about the conditions of the war.
We will he talking ahout the opposition movement in the south.
~-le will talk about the fact that· the troops are being withdrawn
h11t that the war is being escalated technologically. We will get
this out to our friends and fa~ilies and people in the community
anc we wi.11 begin to eq.ucate people polttically which has never
~een done hefor.e in this country, not really. We £vo~et and we
vote for personal.i.ties and names but we've never done any serious
~rass roots organizing in this country and here's the opportunity .
to do it. In ratifying it we pledge ourselves to implement the
treaty in what ever_,1 way we can. And that is the second stage of
work to be done. The imµementation. To go back to the first
stage, however, it is terribly important for us constantly when
tal ldng about the war to talk about racism. Truly confront and
he~in to deal with our racism. Everyone of us white people are
racists and we have to come to terms with that.

high schools and universities make wars such as the Vietnam I

hy teachinr, white supremacy and male supremacy and enforcing
confonnism, and you know what I mean,w:ite on the board and
memorize, and God forbid you. should think for yourselves.
You accept what your teachers tell you as the inevitable,

unalterable truth and you hand it back year after year, and
if you do so at the end of a certain amount of time you will

have marle it and everyone will be very proud, and you will have
a new car and you can go into daddy's business and become

sttcsserl that this ·is a nemocro.cy, that there· is no ruling class
r ( \
\ . . . '. . / •
in this country, and that everything will work out for the best
because meaningful reforms are waiting right around the corner.
Well, it's just not true and we .really, it is painful, it is
difficult, but we really must come t. .t ·o .:? terms with the fact
that this is not a democracy. How can it be a democracy when

well over half the people in this country and half the Senate
wnnt an end to the war and the war continues, when there are
i
a~e-old constitutional amendments calling for equality and there ..I
is no ·equality :"as· anyone w~o is not white in. this country will
tell you; when there are Federal laws outlawing corporate trusts
and po~ution and hazardous worklng conditions and yet the
corporate trusts get more powerful every year, that the working
conditions in the factories today are worse than they were thirty
yenrs ap,o. Did you know that last year 450,000 people were
injured in industrial jobs1 That's worse than in Vietnam;
14,500 people were killed in industrial jobs. And as for
pollution, let us never make the mistake of thinking that that
is not a political issue. You have only to look at who is doing

the polluting. It is not the Ford workers or the workers in the
stc~l companies an<l foundries here that are doing the polluting;
it is the owners of those factories. It is the Henry Fordl that
~re responsible,
f (Applause.) ... .,

(.~ t'
And they will kee; on polluting and it is we . ._ _.o are paying
with our lives, our health and our tax dollars. They will
keep on polluting until they can find a way to make profit -·
off ecology - only it may be too late. What kind of democracy
ls it when the majority of our university heads and corporation
heads and draft board officials are over 50 and white and male
and when the richest most powerful institution in this country
is the complex of the CIA, the intelligence agencies and the
Pentagon. We are not.a democracy. We. can make this country
into a democracy. It is up to·us. It is truly up to us.
Now the tactics that were used in 1965 are not valid anymore
when people have been killed in Augusta and Jackson and Kent
S~at~ when the soldiers are refusing to fight, when the people
ln South Vietnam are demanding an end to war, when Laos and
C;.unbodia have been invaded, new tactics are necessary. We
must use ou~ imagination and figure out what those tactics
a r.e going to be. Now, no group is going to relate· to the treaty
in the same way or find the same ways of implementing it.
E,'1ch group will write their own preamble,~ why they are
rclnting to the treaty and how they plan to implement it.
'I'll give you an .example of the things that have been talked
' ll!hout around the rest of the country. Turning ROTC build}ngs

and support them. Now you have an incredible opportunity here.
You've ~ot a lot of military installations around. Ft. Carson
ls n key one. And there is, there is, already a lot of
o::-ganizing goin~ on. There is a coffeP. house called the
~ome front in Colorado Springs w~ich needc -a lot of support,
financial ~upport in order to provide lawyers and draft
counselling for the soldiers, to help get their paper out and
di.~trib11t:E it, to have things mimeographed, and just to have
!)P.0ple show up and rap · wi.th the soldiers and show that we
.1pport them.
f: 1 They need people to go onto the bases and leaflet.
Now, what h,'.lr,pens when you do that is you get taken to the
rrr::ivost m~rshal 's office and given a letter of expulsion, which
simply me:ins that you can't come back on the base any more.
() nu!!,hter) Maybe that's a way for soldiers, no, they/ d send
you somP.'\vhere else. No, I was just thinking about guys that
c11·e about to be drafted could get expulsion papers from all the

In the high school there's a thing called Military

n'"lt wh::1.t I o:1m accused of smur,glinp,. What I was accused of

l;eaJ th; food piJ ls, they seized my address book, and they
l 1~ve c]osr~ me into an office. They do not even let me stand
11n. Two ~BI a~entn keep shoving me into a seat. All I can
-
dn is sinp:, which I did a lot of, good, revolutionary French
f:0nr.~, Hhich set them off. Now I know I have studied my rights
ln rrep~rntion for just such a thine, but it's not the first
ti rne I've heP.n stopped comin8 across the border, and by the way
t!1ey tolc-1 me they were working under orders from Washington,
nnd that I'm on a list. They admitted that to me. They denied
i. t Jnter but at the time they actually told me that. I know,
1 knC:w that they were holding me to perform what is called a
r:t,:i_r, senrr.h. Strip searches are illegal without probable cause
:ind you have to have n lot of cause. For example, someone recently
;vro harl alrendy been convicted on a heroin smuggline charge and
~H:iS comin~ back into the country for a second time was giyen a
- '
Jstri;> search.
Her.e
Dope was found on this person, but the ch_a~es
rlropped, because the strip search was carried on ~thout

probable cause, despite the fact that this person already had a 1·- '

''
I1 ern i.n conv let ion. - Now I have, I do not carry.~--irugs, I have
nevP.r. been accused of carrying dru8s, they know that. There
was absoh1tely no cause for them to hold me there and carry on
a strip search, of which they performed six in the course of the
evening. I uas not allowed to call my lawyer. At the end of
three hour~ in this airport and after repeatedly saying to them,
show me the law which permits you to hold me here, I am not under
~rrcst anrl you have no grounds to hold me here. I then had to go

' ' '
''
to the ba.throom, and they wouldn I t let me go to the bathroom, and
✓
they "·ere very rude about,· and . I pushed an FBI agent out of the
't•P Y ,-,ho was blocking my WRY to the restroom, and he joyfully, his
[Dee literally lit up, and he looked at his fellow officers and
sai.d rlic1 y0u see thnt7 And clamped handcuffs on me and said you're
under arre .C":t for assaulting a pol ice officer. (laughter) Then
I trnitf'd ,.,nother hour for the policewomen to come and they strip
searched me, and then when that was all over they opened my purse
Llnd they found a small bottle of pills, medicine that I purchased
in this country with a prescription from my doctor. These pills
t'vc carried in and out of the country for years, and I've never
hcen hassled nhout them and I've never declared them. I don't know
l•fY.•7 1T1any peon] e declare their own personally prescribed medicine
,r:-spccially when I had been out of the country for two hours,

of the cmrntry, and was I bringing anything into the coientry,
to he declared and I said no and I did not lie. It is this
- , 56 - Ct~-D_ :
( . •
p1:r~onnlly prescribed medicine that I am accused of .smuggling.
There were several appetite depressants which I never take and
I would really tell everyone they are very bad for you, and I
know they an~. I carry them around in the event that r have had
to stay up for three or four nights and just cnn't keep going
without taking something. But I never take them. Anyway,
there were some capsules, some appetite depressants and some
v:i.llion (phonetic). And it is this that I'm accused of smuggling,
into the United States. That's the story~.- That's it. They
took my tapes, my books, my lectl,lre material, and I had to fight
to r,et it back two dnys later from the FBI. I think that it was
a nolitic~l arrest, I do not see any other reason for it. It was
~n attemot to discredit me and in many areas of this country they
dtd a r,ood job, because people think that I am a dope smuggler.
TJ,.::it 's tbe story:.
Pale voice:

I was going to sue for false arrest. They know that it could

dnn't hL°ve And money if I did have could be put to much better

The CID was in nenver this afternoon trying to figure
0ut if I was going there. They were freaking out. Yes.
Mnle voice:
Could you tell us how long you've been involved, and
if n0t why you got involved?
Yea. I was brought up to be a liberal. I was a ..

cPnccrned liheral, which meant thRt I, if I saw people who were
hnngry or in need I would try to give them food to eat and meet
their needs, which meant I was dealing with results and not with
'.:m.1scs. As a 1 iberal, I saw things as isolated issues, I .t hought
t:hc WRr wns a mistake. I thought that we had a problem of racism
anrl then there was the problem of unemployment and the problem of
pnverty and the problem of illiteracy. And that these were,
~nd the Indian problem and the Chicano problem, these were all
' isepa i:ate issues. Then I went to France. I was married tq a

t t
fr~chman, and while I was there I began to discover what ihe Vietnam
I
._.,,..
War was all about and I began to find out what imperialism meant
2nd I be~an to stu and I came back to this c .,,---...1try and I began
to talk to the people.

.
Now I come from a priveleged cl~ss of
society, and I am white, and I · had not taken the time to talk to
people who have daily problems that I didn't know about. And I
he~~n t0 travel across the country and I talked with the Black /,.
I
.
r:mthers and I talked with hundreds of soldiers and I talked with
Indians and I went on Indian reservations and I began to understand
thRt racism and unemployment and poverty and the war are all the
result of the capitalist system. That is just a fact of life.
-( a rplause)
They are what· happens when you have a society which
proch1c:es for production sake, for the sake of profit>,- ,· and not
to meet the needs of the people. And every day that I live that
becomes clearer to me, and as it becomes clearer the struggle
becomes clearer and I run more and more committed. Once you under-
stand those links and once you understand who and what the enemy
i~ Y'"'U flrm 't, you' re never the same again. There's no going back.
Yo,1 hecome part of the struggle and you commit your life to the
ftrup~le. ~-1ore and more people in America are going to be
di~coverinr, this. They're going to be discovering it because
th~ cepita]ist system is an obsolete system. There was a time
whicl· it worked, but h lstorically it is inevitable thaq it will

there wil 1 be everythinr, for everyone. There will be an abundance
for everyone. from each according to his ability to each
nccordin~ to his need, in a classless society. And that is the
only thing that can save the world, very truly. Very truly.
/'.nd n lot of people in America are frightened by those words.
Arcnt'you frightened by the fact that this most wealthy country
hti.s one of the hip;hest rates of infant mortality. That in this
cnuntry tbere is illiteracy and starvation, that people are
P~ploited, that workers do not profit from their labor. There
~~e countri.es in which these things do not exist. They just do
nnt r-xist. And it i~ foolish for us to say that we have the

I have a question, Miss Fonda. Are you having to give

you know, and so far they figure still make a

fi~st of all I still think that it is possible, I don't think it's
not p0ssihle to make revolutionary movies in Hollywood, · but I think

i_t' ~ po0sible to say a lot of very important things through· : mass

thi.n~s we're talking about, subtlely. I think Ihey Shoot Horses

of Ap~il 20, 1970 nnd April 21, 1970. Fonda spoke to servicemen r ~
at Fort C:i.rsc.:1 on tl;ese occ~sio~-"- concerning her disapproval of I..: ~
the Vietn~;-;i iiar. I UPOfl 11••; E w~s present and, upon k -~

that Fonda su;geated that ~hen one ~as ordered to Vietnam, be

that the peace movement is working for them - not against them as
many have implied. Besides supporting the Coffee Houses. and
their wide variety o! services, USSF also gives financial assn»tance
to more than half of the 70 GI newspapers throughout the world.
On an extremely slender budget, it spreads its resources literally

around the world. The GI•s need USSF - and USSF needs you. We

Miss JANE FONDA appeared at a-.1rally at San
Fernando Valley State College, 18111 Nordhoff, sponsored
by "Students Against the War".· Miss FONDA began speaking ..
at 3:00 p.m. and concluded at 4:00 p.m. 'lhe following
remarks were made:
The movie in which I recently appeared, They
Shoot Horses, Don't They?, describes people chasing after
a false illusion held out by others who would make a .1
profit. We are like those people chasing a false illusion
held out by the Government. In the movie, the main char-
acter discovers the falsity of the dream held out and
commits suicide. We know the falsity held out by our
Governmen~ but we must use the gun against the oppressors
and not against ourselves. We must organize the people
to resist the oppressor. We must realize that there is
a difference between reactionary violence and revolutionary
violence. Revolutionary violence is the right of the
people.
(Interruption in order to make the television
cameras and personnel move to a position behind
the crowd. This demand was opposed by the
newsmen and a disturbance arose, which was
finally ended by JANE FONDA who allowed the
newsmen to sit in the middle of the crowd.)
Concerning the war in Vietnam and Lieutenant
CALLEY, we must realize that individuals are not responsible
for the war and the atrocities committed. The leaders
of the United States are the guilty ones and should be
tried under International Law for war crimes. United
States s-o ldiers have committed acts of violence against
the Vietnamese people not because we are by nature violent,
but because of the brainwashing which American men undergo
throughout their lives and during their military training.

Our American history is filled with examples of our violence
and our prejuidice against other people 1 especially the
-I ndians. •
At the conference of Vietnam veterans which
took place last winter 1 American soldiers described the
torture which they inflicted on the Viet Cong and soldiers
of North Vietnam. For example 1 prisoner body counts were
made only upon arrival at a United States military base
and never at the time of loading of the prisoners in the
field. This allowed American soldiers to throw uncooperative
North Vietnamese out of the helicopter. Other veterans
recalled such tortures as the suspending of North Vietnamese
prisoners from a helicopter by means of a wire attached
to their testicles. American men are taught to do this
sort of thing in order to prove that they have 11balls".
Whether the issue be the war 1 Women's L1beration 1 •
pollution, or any other, none can be separated and designated
as a separate problem, but all must be considered part of
the whole. All of the issues ultimately go back to our
present system. For instance, pollution is not the fault
of the individual working man. It is the fault of management 1
siree if management desired to end the pollution, it could.
Our capitalist system is the real problem. Sexism is a
part or our war oriented culture. Men are taught that to -
prove their manliness, they must be dominating and compete.
This carries over to Vietnam where American soldiers use
Vietnamese women as whores or rape them. This is nothing
but American male chauvinism. "Our whole system needs
to be restructed from the ground up".
Concerning the prisoner of war issue, the North
Vietnamese treat our soldiers well. However, our soldiers
who are prisoners in Vietnam respond to this go~d treatment
- - - .. -
- - ·· --
'-
-. ,) ~·
;
-.
..
with typical preju1d1ce.· '!hey abuse the North Vietnamese
guards, calling them slant eyes, gooks, etc. captured
soldiers sleep on soft mats and eat better food than the
North Vietnamese guards. Mr. GEORGE SMITH, a former member
or the State Department, has researched this whole field
and concurs.
'.through the prisoner of war issue, NIXON has
an excuse for continuing the war. We can get the prisoners
back by simply ending the war, but NIXON and the establishment
do not want the war ended. For this reason, they use the
prisoner issue to keep the passion of Americans running
against the Vietnamese. 'lhe poor parents of prisoners
are the foils of NIXON. '!he Pentagon uses men like FRISHMAN
(phonetic) to spread false stories about the treatment of
our prisoners in North Vietnam.
On the other hand, our American soldiers are
brutal toward the North Vietnamese prisoners. At home
in the United States military Jails such as the one at
Ft. Benn:tng, Georgia, are brutal toward American prisoners .·
held in this country.
'lbe People• s Treaty could be the sol1 1tion to the
war. It is not a petition since a petition asasfor something.
It 1s a demand around which a grassroots people's movement
can spring.
'lhe country we live in is not really a democracy.
It needs total change. '!he capitalist system is the
basic cause of all the evils or our day.
'!he GI movement is beginning to build and we
must support it. Heretofore, we have thought of anyone in
uniform as the enemy. Now we know that this is1 not true.
Especially since many young men opposed to the war are
forced to enter the military or have their record so marred
that they can never find employment. On Armed Forces day,
the GI movement will attempt to shut down many bases and
we should support this effort. We should make this an
Anned Forces Day of the people.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Chief, CI/Special Operations

--- -·-·-- ---- ·· - • · - - ·
SUBJECT : FBI Reouest on Jane Fond.a Broadcast
This Oifice bas been in touch with the Internal Security

I>i.vision. Department of Justice, and has ascertained their analy-
ses of the broadcasts by Jane Fonda have not been completed. Tne
Department of Justice has not reached a decision on seeking an
indictment of Miss Fonda and, therefore, it would appear premature
to furnish the FBI with names of monitors and editors of the broad-
casts at this time. Snould our contacts in the Department of Justice
advise us they are closer to· seeking ab indictment, we can furnish
witness information to them at that time. I suggest you tell the FBI
their request will be aeld in abeyance.

NHAN DAN CITES STATEMENT ATTRIBUTED TO JANE FONDA
Hanoi VNA Inter n atio n al Service in English 0719 GMT 17 Jul 72 B
[Press Review]
[Excerpt] Hanoi VNA July 17--·A statement Of the DRV Foreign Ministry spokesman ru n
by the dailies on Sunday deno unced the barbar ous U.So bom.bin g of Nam Dinh city 8.nd
a series o f population centers throughout North Vietnam cm July 14. Besides, NHAN
DAN qucted American actress Jane Fon da as saying 8.fter her fa�t-finc!ing trips to
11
various bombed areas here that as the elections in the U.S. are drawing near Richard
Nixon is using the most cynical and criminal kinds of lies and trickery to fool
American and world opinion into believing that he is trying to end the war in
Indochina. 11 11Hvw can be be e nding the war when he was ki.lU.ng more people in
Indochina than ever befox"e, dropping more tons of bombs than ever before, creating
more damage than ever before, and now bombing the dfkes in the Red River Delta, en
dangering cr ops and animals, 11 Jane Fonda stated, adding that she "will speak out
l ouder than ever before tJ and "will expose the lies partic"J.larly now 1n the mo st im
portant time Just prior to the electi ons . 11
HANOI RADIO CARRIES TALK ATTRIBUTED TO JANE FONDA
Han oi in Snglish to American Servicemen Involved in the Indochina War 1300 GMT 17
Jul 72 B
[Text] La.st week, actres8 Jane Fonda visited Hanoi's Bach Mai hospital which was
serjously damaged by U.S. bombs during a recent air raid. After the vi.sit she had
this to talk to American servicemen still involved in the Vietnam war. [Follows
recorded female voir;e with American accent]
This is Jane Fonda speaking fr o m Han oi, and I'm speaking part.i.cularly to the U.S.
serv:icemeri \ihO are stationed op the aircraft carriers in the GuJ f o f Tonkln, in
the 7th Fleet, in thc- Anglico C o rps in the south of Vietnam.
yrJu arE very far a·1,i-a:1, perhaps, and removed from the ccuntry tna. t you ire being
ord.erej to .c;hNJt- shells at and bOmb. And sci it 1s perhaps very hard for y<111 to,
tD understand in c0;1.c:-ete human terms wh--:l.t the effects of, of these bombs and these
shells are having.
I1m.:sure if you knew what was inside the shells that you 1 re dr opping� you would ask
yourself as. as I ha7e been doing f or the l ast few da ys sin ::::e I have seen the
victims: What do the men who work for Honeywell and the othe.r companies J.n the
United. States that invent and, and, and make thes� l,Jeapons--what do they think in
the morning, at breakfast? What do they d:ream al: out when they sleep at night?
Yesterday, I went through the war museum in Hano i, where there is a display of all
the different kinds of antipersonnel weap ons the different kinds of bombs, the
guava bomb, the pineapple bomb, the spider b omb, different kinds of shells that con
tain toxic chemicals, the new kinds of napalm, coffibinations of napalm and phosphorus
and the:rmite. The l ist is e ndless as are the, the victims from these we ap ons. And,
!t absolutely amazed me, the length to which man's min d-- or at least some men in the
United States�-their minds have gone to create new ways of killing pe ople, They must
want t o die very much themselves to think this much about new ways of killing peop l e.
r;. 18 Jul 72 K 20 NORTH VIETNAM
I don't know what your officers tell you that you are dropping on this country.
I
don, t know what your officers tell youjl you are load,ing, those of you who load
the
bombs on the planes. But» one thing that you should know is that these weapons
are
illegal and thatts not, that's not just rhetoricG They are oUtlawed , these kind
of
weaponsjl by several conventio ns of which the United states was a signatory --two
Hague
conventio ns. And the use of these bombs or the condoning the use of these bombs
makes
one a war criminal.
The men who are ordering you to use these weapons are war criminals according to
inter-
national law jl and in, in the past, in Germany and in Japan 11 men who were guilty of
these kind of crimes were tried and executed.
Now I know that you are not told these Rind of things, but, you know, history changes.
We've witnessed incredibl e changes for example in the United states in the last
5 yea~s.
The astoundin g victory that has just been won by George McGovern, for example,
who, who
was nominated by the Democrati c Party, is an example of the kind of changes that
are
going on--an example of the overwhelm ing, overwh~lm ing feeling in the United states
among people to end the war. McGovern represent s all that is good to these people.
He represent s an end to the war, an edd to the bombing.
The women and the mothers in the United States are weeping for the damage and death
and
destructi on that is being caused to the mothers of Vietnam. Very soon, very soon
even
the people in the United States who have not yet spoken out will be admitting
that
this war is the most terrible crime that has ever been created against humanity.
It may be very difficult for you who have been asked to fight it to, to thihk about
the war in a new kind of way, to not think about it in an abstract way, to not
think
about it as some, sole land down there underneat h your planes or beyond the sight
of
your guns, that is just sand or rubble or trees with a lot of gooks or Charlies
or what-
ever you 1 ve been taught to call the people \,tho live here.
This is a country that is 4,000 years old. It i~ a very rich country, it has a
rich
culture, it has a rich, a rich growth. The trees are lush, the flowers are beautifu
l.
I ve been in many countries around the wot-ld,, I have traveled widelyj> I 1ve been
1
very
f'ort'...lll3. te. Never in my life have I been in a country of people that are so loving,
and so nonaljena ted. They are truly at peace with their land and with each other.
What do you see .tn the streets? You see people holding hands, arms around each
other,
helping each other, talking to each other, hugging each otheri working together
in
the fields. These are peasants. These are people who are used to being part of
their
land. Their clothes are stained with the land, their hots es are made with land,,
There I s an expressio n that is used to descr.1.be Vietnames e women, which says: Feet
in
the dust and hands in the mudc And you see all these beautiful Vietnames e women
leaning
over in the rice fields, with their hands in the mud planting the rice. Their
pagodas
are made of mud.
And their land is being destroyed . why~ certainly not for anything that is in
your
interests , the soldiers of the United States» or .in the interests of any of the
people
in the United Stat~s except the very few people who are determine d to prevent the
nation
of Vietnam from achieving freedom and independe nce.
IV. 18 Jul 72 K 21 NORTH VIETNAM
How this came about is an astonishing thing. How it is that a country like the
United States of AmericaJ which fought for its own freedom and independence, has
become a nation which will deprive another nation of freedom and independence is
something that we will all have to answer one day. We 1 11 all have to find out how
this came about. But right now, we must, we must stop, we must stop dropping these
bombs on the people of Vietnam.
I visited a hospital today, the Bach Mai hospital. I saw a huge bomb crater in the
center of the hospital. It was obviously dropped there on purpose, With the kind of
bombs, the kind of techniques that have been developed now, you know, particularly
you pilots know 1 that accidents like that don•t happen. This was no accident. It
destroyed wards filled with patients. It destroyed hospital equipment,. It killed
some doctors. It is a terrible thing to see what has been done.
Why? Why do you do this? Why do you follow orders telling you to destroy a
hospital or bomb the schools. Do you know what happens to the women when the
napalm that you're dropping lands on them? You have no idea. Deformed hands, necks
twisted out of shape, women with five children who were working women who are used to
working with their hands, who were lovely and alive and graceful--the way Vietnamese
women are with the long black hair--twisted out of shape, not dead, not spared the
pain and the misery of living as a mutilated person, forever in physical pain.
Why, why is this being done? The victims in the hotij)i tals with thousands of holes
in their body, from the steel pellets that are being dropped, and even worse now
the Nixon ad ministration has gone one step further from the Johns on ad minis tra ti on--
the steel pellets have been perfected, they•re now plastic, rough-edged plastic.
Why? Because plastic doesn 1 t show up on X-ray- 1 s, which means that these people spend
the rest of their lives with their bodies filled with plastic pellets and every
time they move, it causes excruciating agony.
The women that I have talked to who were not even under your bombs but came to help
victims of the chemical bombs, and the chemical toxic gasses were so strong that even
after the bomb, long after the bomb had exploded when these women came to save the
other people, they got sick. And, and weeks and months later they still--they pass
out, they have headaches, they are losing their memory. Women who, who were
pregnant are, are, are giving birth to deformed babies.
How can it be that the people of the United States have caused this kind of
terrible, terrible suffering on a nation so far away? On a nation that has caused
us no harm? I mean, what do you think? That the Vietnamese people are going to row
across the Pacific in canoes? So I ask you and I will continue to ask you as long
as I am here and I ask you as an American and I ask you because I cry every night
when I think of, of what these people are having to go through, and I cry every
night, when I think of the danger that is being done to them because of the bombing
ot' their dikes. And I say why? And I say that the time has come for us to stop it.

APP CORRESPONDENT INTER JANE FONDA NOI

[Text] Hanoi, 19 July (AFP)--By Jean Thoraval--Amerioan Jane Fonda said tOday that each
bomb that falls on North Vietnam should be, for every Amerioan, a symbol of the failure
or President Nixon 1 s V1etnam1zat1on policy in the south.
During a lWlcheon interview with this correspondent, Miss Fonda said, Nrr Nixon bombs
the north and commits such crimes, it 1s for the same reasons as those which led
President Johnson to do the same thing in 1965. The explanation 1:5 151mple, It is
because U.S. policy in South Vietnam has failed.~
Miss Panda, who has travelled hundreds or miles through the bombed regions since her
arrival here July 8, was clearly shaken by what ahe had seen. Sometimes, during the
interview, she could not prevent a tear from appearing at the corner or an eye.
She said, 11 Vhen one sees these horrors, all the11e children and women damaged in their
deepest flesh for life, when all these things which before were abstract became con-
crete realities for me, there was no longer any doubt for me, and I repeat for me, (that
it was] a question of the 11ystematic destruction or the population or North Vietnam."
11
Several things had struck her. I .JBS surprised to note that my compatriots--the
military or the Pentagon--had been able to imagine such subtle ant1persor.nel weapons.
All or the fragmentation bombs are now constructed to fit the height or the Vietnamese.
"Al!!io, I noted that most or the air ra1d8 take place at the time when people are going
to market, during lunch, during the harve!!its or in the middle or the night when every-
one is asleep. It is as though the bombings are calculated according to the habits or
the population."
But Miss Fonda said there was something else even more striking and unforgettable: "It
is that all of these destructions have not at all affected the determination or the
North Vietnamese people to fight.
"Perhaps some people are going to think I am engaging 1n propaganda, Out when one 111 here
·and one sees all or the imagination and determination used by the8e people to combat
the inventions Of death developed 1n the Pentagon, one can only have an immense esteem
for them. I have the very clear impression that the more one destroys North Vietnam,
hhe more determined it is to resist."

visiting Nam Dinh: [f_pllows recorded female vcice ,,.,.:._tr. Ame:-ican 2ccen":J
I ;;as taken to all parts of the c:.. ty. I sa.,; ;,,"i th my own eyes tho. t. in this city
which is the textile capital of VietnaJI., there are no td.litary t;argets,
I saw for example, on Hang Tien Street, bombed on the 23d of J1:ne, huge bomb crate:-:s
which had destroyed houses in this very populated residential section of town,
Tnere were wo women wbo were picking through the rubble left by the bombs and they-
came over and spoke to me. One of the women said that she I d been at the market
when the bomb fell on the top of her house. Her house has been turned into a huge
bomb crater. Her husband and three children were all killed. lier oldest son was
25 years old, her next oldest son had been 22, and her youngest son was 18. Tnree
fac1lies in this area were entirely destroyed by the bombs.
As l walked through the streets, beautiful Vietnamese girls looked at me through the
doors and re turned my smile. Their eyes seemed to be questioning: How is it th.at
the Americans can do this to our city? We have done nothing to them.
I saw a secondary school where 600 students .from 5th to 7th grade had been in class.
The school had been bit by tvo bombs. I saw the center of a Chinese residential
district, bombed--three places--houses razed to the ground.
The number 1 hospital of the city which had had 200 beds and it treated people from
all over the city, large parts of it had been completely destroyed, particularly
the pediat--ped.iatrics department aild the supply dep--er--department whe:-e the
medicines had been kept.
Tne large factory, the textile factories of Nam Dinh, in charred ruins. No one
1sn 1 t [as heard] allowed to go in there because there are delayed reaction bombs.
I went to the dike, the dike system of the city of Nam Dinh. Just this morning a. t
4 o 1 clock it was bombed again, and I was told that a~ hour after we lef~ the city,
planes came back and rebombed Nam Dinh. The dike in many places has been cu!: i:--.
half and there are huge fissures running across the top o:- i ~-
Again, I am talking about these things and I ac desc=-ibing to you what I am see:.r-..g
on the ground because I think that you must not understand that the destruc<:ion i~
being caused to civilian populations and residential areas, to cultural cente:-s.
saw the pagodas bombed in Nam Dirih. The area in which there are theate:-s where
people come to rest, the recreation centers were all destroyed in Nam Dim:.
Vnat are your commanders telling you? How are they justifying this to you7 Have
you any idea what your bombs are doing when you pull the levers and push the buttons?
Some day we I re going to have to answer to our children for this war. Some day we
are going to have to explain to the rest of the world how i~ is that "e caus€d this
type of suffering and death and destruction to a people who--who nave done us nc
ha!"lol.. Perhaps we should start to do it no~ before i : ~s, too late.
Ferhaps, however, the most :..oportant thing that has to be said about Vietnam is that
despite all that Nixon is doing here and that Johnson has done before him, despite all
the bombs, the people are more determined than ever to fight.

for the V1etnamese people.
s:ne continued: [.first few words in .English, fading into Vietnamese tra:,slation--recorded]
I believe that vicious Nixon knovs what he is doing. BY bombing the d1i{es and dams that
have been built and protected for thousands o~ years Nixon has struck at the foundation
of the Vietnamese nation. Nixon is trying to defend himself, but he has no right to bomb
the DRV. He has violated the 1954 Geneva agreements and the commitment made 1n 1968 to
stop bombing the north.
After analytically pointing out that Nixon 1 s present war escalation originated in his
setbacks in South Vietnam, sister Fonda said: [first few words 1n English, fading
into Vietnamese translat1on--record1.ng] The Vietnamese people have a 4,000-year history.
These 4,000 years have readied the Vietnamese people to handle any action taken by
Nixon. I have the impress1on that the Vietnamese people are struggling for their
fallen heroes and heroines, for their 4,000-year history and for their fi.n;ure generations.
What I have learned here and which I will never forget is that Vietnam is one nation, one
co-m1try.
Refuting many or Nixon's fallac1ous allegations about the V1etna~ problem, especially
the clai.II: that the north is aggresslng against the south, sister Fonda stressed: [first
few words in English, fading into V1etnamese translation--record1ngj Nixon cannot end
the war if he insistently demands that the political issue be separated fro:r: the ~:!.litary
issue. ~here is only one way to end the war: to seriously respond to the PRGRSV's
seven-point proposal, which is the most fair, sensible, reasonable and humanitarian prc•-
posal. '!!'le United States must set a deadline for \tithdrawing all its rr.il!.tary force~
from South Vietnam and must cease its support for the Nguyen Van Thieu refL'1.~
Jane Fonda answered many questions by domestic and foreign journalists. Answer~"'lf
a foreign journalist ts guest 1.on on the s 1gn1.ficance of the DeCJocra tic party I s nom.L'lo-
t ion of Senator McGovern as the Decocratic presidential candidate, sister Fonda said:
The American people are fed up with the VietnaCJ war. which is radically dividing the
United States. Senator McGovern is a symbol of change, of a way out. Many rapiC
changes have taken place in the united State~.
In answer to a question about the fact that some American warlike elements are t~reaten-
ing to take legal action against her ror treason, sister Fonda said: I think we must see wh<
the traitor. I want .to publicly accuse Nix::m here of being a new-type Hitler whose
crimes are being unveiled. I want to publicly charge that while waging the war of
aggression 1n Vietnam he has betrayed everything the American people have at heart.
The tragedy is for the United States and not for the Vietnamese pe~ple because the
Vietnamese people will soon regain their independence and freeQom.

' wauld like to tell yau something abOl.!t what is happening. in the U.S. The peace
movement in my coun'try is becOJI.ing more and more powerful, as it is in yO"~r part of
the country. Especially 1n the last year, we have witnessed more and more intellectuals
and middle-class peOples who are becoming actively involved in a very militant way in
the peace movement. We have witnessed doctors, psychiatrists, teachers of all kinds,
many celebrities 1n the films and in the theatre, actors and actresses, d1.rec1:ors or
lead.1ng vriters have all participated in demons,:rations of all kinds. [sen'tence as
received] They have signed petiti'tiOl:1£. They have marched on the capitol in
Washington. They have lain down in front of the Senate, and demanded that the war
be ended, that all troops be withdrawn from Vietnam. ground troops, air troeps, CIA,
advisors, that the U.S. stop the support of the fascist Thieu regime. They were ex-
pressing their disgust that the U.S.J.. i~ spending its money, sending its ya,~ng men
anC. its military equipment to support a government, to support a regime which i.s a
most cr1m.1nal and barbarous one. We do not think that ~~r cOuntry shOuld come to the
defence of such a regime. My only experiences have been 1n the schools on the
military bases, and among the women of Americ~. And l 1 ve seen a very power.t'ul growth
in the peace movement. By the 'tens of thousands nouse~ives have become actively in-
volved, are doing door to door organising in their comm~nities, students nave closed
down their colleges and universities and other peace movements have ever: gone into
the high schools, into the elementary schools where the young s'tudent~ are terribly
concerned about what our government is doing in Ol.!r names and the V.S. !iOlCiers bot.:-.
[as received] on the aircraft carriers who have signeC pe~jtitions dem~nC1ng tha:
their ships not be used against Vietnam. The men in 'the c:.1r force, in tn:- frO"'..:.::,.C
forces have taken very m.ilitant actions includi.ng ly!....~ dO\ln on 'the rum.c;,~s. t:ockaC..:.n~
the ships, marching and demonstra't.i.ng and while are we Going tn::.s, we: are pro~esting
above. all the murder, the slaughter of the people of' \11e'tnam. We- ar-e:: protest :...n.g tn~
disruption or your lives and the ini'ringemen't on your right ~o freedo::n, demo:racy and
independence. We do not feel that our country which is ~nable to establish democracy
at home is in a posi.tion t:.o pretend that it can export democracy 'to ar....v other coun'try.
We have seen wi.th our own eyes and experienced with our souls the damage [th2tJ is
done· to the people 1.n a consumer class society. If we walk on tne s'treets of th~ big
citi.es of America we see peOple that aren 1 t happy, we see people who do not know why
they are living, bumping 1.nto e2ch other, not helping each other. We see people
drunk or hurt, all peOple lying on the sidewalk and no one helps them. People walk by
and no one pays any attention. People are being murdered in the streets of America
and they cry for help, anC no one comes.

J.LLEGED .JANE FONDA STt.TEMENT TO V .S. PILOTS, A:RMEK
Hanoi in English to-American Servicemen Involved ir. the Iru::iochina War 1300 GMT 24 Jul 72 E
[Text] Now let 1 s listen to Jane Fonda speaking to U.S. pi.lo'ts and airmen: [follows
recorded female voice with America~ accent]
'Ihis is Jane Fonda in Hanoi. Yesterday, July 15, I 1 m told that the record ~or B-52
bombing raids in Vietnam. [was set] and on July 14th, UPI, UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL,
reported that in aoperation Linebackern against North Vie"&r...am in the firs't :?9 days of
the renewed air war in North Vietna.ci, U.S. bombers flew more t...~an 20,300 raid~. In
each or these raids, an average of 2 tons of bombs were dropped on the country .
.Now we know that B-52's are strategic bombers. These are planes that were built,
invented to--in the event that a large country with its own air rorce and heavy arsenal
of mili "tary weapons like Russia, uhh, would, uhh. need to be attacked. To use B-52 1 s
against the civilian population is like trying to kill a butterfly with a machineg:,~n.
It Is barbaric.
I a~ assuming that because you are so far away fro~ the land here, because you are on
the ships• or because you are 1n Tha1lan:i _. o:r because you ar~ so high up in the sky
that you can hardly see what it is you 1 re bo:.r.bing, that you don•:: really reali:z.e
what the errect or these homos is.
And I think. I--Ithink that--well, the other day, for example, someone told ~e that
one Of the pilots that was recent--recer1tly shot down, uhh, nea:r" H.2.nci, as he ;.as.
u.r.::, driven across the river, uhh, uhh, he was, he was, uhh, being be!ng resc:ie:: by,
u...-i::, the people ci!'l:! ne ..:as shown a t:ri.d.ge ar.d the people said.. 'J.ht,, ttla~ b:-:.dge 1,,·2.s _
uf'..h, bombed, uhh, recently . .And he said: Well, I:1.y parents a!'e r.lch. lTn..'1., we ca::
buy you a new ·!Jridge, we can afford to build you a new bridge 2:'-:er the ,.-a!"". ;:,,-._j tne
people said to him in Vietnamese and it was tnen translcited by the interprete:", -:ney
said, but can your parents replace our. ou:- child:-en_, O"..;r mothe.:-s ~ our rnves •.me have
bee~ killed by your bombs? And the soldier hun~ his head and he said: I dit~':
think o~ that. ..
I've heard this .from several of the. uhh, pilots--I didn't think of that. I t!'u.nk we
have to start thinking about it. I think we have to start thinking about the incend--
incendiary bombs that are being droppedr These bombs asphyxiate people "to dea ::-~,
people who are in the shelters. No'iJ, who goes into shelters'? The women, the old
people. and the children--they I re suffocating- to death. They I re being bu.rned in ways
that is beyond the in-.agina tion, and I t:~ink we have to think about that.
Vn:,. t are you being told by your commanders'? Are you being told that you 1 .:-e borr:oing
to help the people? To save the country for democracy! What Y..ind of democracy~
Fifty thousand American lives have been lost here for a one-man election. Is that a
democracy? What ld.nd of democracy when just after the last one-man election, the
'Ihieu reg.ice in the south passed new economic reforms which •ere· planned and set up
by the Un1 ted States ..

This is Jane Fonda from Hanoi. 1 1m addressing myself to the ARVN soldiers.
Many people in the United States deplore what is being done to you. We understand
that :Nixon•s aggression against Vietnam is a rascis~ aggression, that the American
war in Vietnam is a rascist war, a white man 1 :s war--(?whichi was very clearly indica-ced
when Ambassador,to Saigon Elsworth Bunker describeC the Vietnamization program as
changing the color of the corpses.
We deplore that you are being used as cannonfodder for U.S. imperialism. We 1 ve
seen photographs of American bombs and antiperson.~el weapons being dropped, wantonly,
accidentally perhaps, on your heads, on -che heads of your corerades. And ve note
with interest that (?these·) kind of accidents don 1 t r..a.ppen, at least: not with as
much Irequency 1 to American soldiers, and we think this is an indication of the lack
of concern that 1:s being taken for your lives ty the whit;e American officers, both ir.
Vietnam and in the Pent;agon and in the White House--not to mention 'the office~s ir.
Saigon who-have been bought ot:f by the ruling class of the Unit;ed Stat;es.
We 1 ve seen photographs of many of you clinging to the helicopters trying to escape

from~ you knew was a suicide mission. We understand t:hat you nave been press ganged,
many cf you~ inr;c the ar-my because your lanihas been destroyed by American ·oorr.bs.,
because there are noothe·r jobs ~o be had i..."1 Saigon, perna:::,s because you .'1.av-e t:::
support: your family~ beca·.i.se you w::..11 oe t:he--yo..:. will oe pu~ 1.:: jail and oe.s.c:e:-.
if you tried to avoid the dr~:t.
111·e \fell understand the kind of sit-..raticn that you are p"J.t in because American solc!ie::-s
are in the same kind of situation, and we feel that--t:nat you have much in common.
You are being sent to £igh-c a war that is not in yoU!" interest:s ~u~ is the inr;eres:
of the jpiall handful of pepple who have got:r;en rich and hope to ge't richer off this
war and off" the turning of your country int;o a neocolony of the United. S~ates.
We read with interest about the graving rnUJnbers of you who are understanding the tri:rth
and joining with your fellow coun~rymen to fight for freedom and independence and
democracy. We note with interest, for example, that a:s 1n'-the case of the 56th
Regiment of the 3d Di. vis ion of the Saigon ar:a::.y, ARVN soldiers are taken into the
ranks of the National Li:oeration Front; including officers who may retain their rank.

war is for the United States to withdraw all its troops, all its airplanes, its
bombs, its generalss its CI.A advisers and- to stop the support of the Thieu regime
in Saigon, this man who has defiled not only his own country but the United States.

Message to U.S. OI 1 s
Hanoi in Englisb to Europe, Africa and the Middle East 2000 GMT 2e Jul 72 B
[Text) We now bring you a recorded message by Ame~ican actress Jane Fonda to U.S.
servicemen in sooth Vietnam. ffollows recorded fem.a.le voice with American accent]
This is Jane Fonda speaking from Hanoi. I reaC in the paper yesterday that Melvi~
La1rc:l: has adm.1tted that 1: is possible that tne dikes in North Vietnam have been hit
by .American bombs. He goes on to say that--tr.at this can happen wnen there are mili-
tary installations on top of the dike~~ military convoys or material on or near the
dike.
As someone who has spent noli 2 weeKs 1:1 Nortr. Vie1:na1L. •no !"".Las travelleC. :.r:. tnE-
countryside, wno ha~ seen the dikes. I f1ru! t~is laugn.a.ble. Does ~n~one ~eall;
believe that the Vietnamese pecµle woW.d be fo~llsr. enougn ~o draF mili~a~y ma~eria:,
antiaircraft guns~ through the rice fields where tnere are nc roads, wnere 1r 1 s
difficult to even walk, and place them on top of the dikes, whicn are made o! eart~,
thus att.racting the bombs of the American planes? If you stand or. to:r ~f any c:· thE
dikes in the Red River Delta, you can see around you for miles. It is flat lan~.
It is ::-ice land. It 1s very visible, ve!"y clear to anyone that there are no IC.1.li~ary
installations whatsoever. T9ere a.re no trucks. There are no "Convoys. There a.re nc
antiaircraft guns.
I have ■ een the dikes bombed. I have s:een them cut in half. For miles a.roun.c:. you
can the rice paddies spread out~ a.nrl suddenly right around the most strategic and
vulnerable point of the dike system. the bomb cra~ers begin--huge boob craters,
sometimes 10 meters across anc! 6 meters deep.
Tnere are many kinds of bombs being dropped. Some ~f them are bombs th&t explode ar.d--
cut the dikes in half. Some of them, however, pierce the eart!"~ la~erally. They a.re
delayed explosion bombs which lie dormant underne~th the dikes to explode later.
Some of them are causini earthquakes which make deep f1ssures into the dike system,
so that later when the heavy rains come, the dikes \,:111 bre2.k 2.nd the ~:-ec. .... 111 be
floOded.

These dikes are made of earth. There is no way to convey the labor, the t_iund:-eds
: people, whose labor goes into bc.ilding :these dikes. It takes many years tc cons"truct
0
them, moving the earthp packing it in--pa.cking it into place.
Tne dikes that are destroyed this year will take many years 'tC· be rebuilt because the
earth has "to become solid1fied in order to hold back the heavy waters during the--the
1
neavy rain seasons. So the damage th at is done this year by Ni,::on 1 s strategic
bombing of the dike system will endanger not only the lives and their crops of the
people this yearp but £or many years to come. It may cause famine. It may cause
epidemics.
There is only on way to stop Richard Nixon from committing mass genocide ir. the
De~ocratic Republic of Vietnam, and that is for a mass protest all around the worlC
cf all peace-loving people to expose his crimes, ~o prevent hi.Cl t'rom fcillo~inE the
people of the world into think:ing that i..f there are floods this year it would be 2
na"tural disaster.
It is a very clever scneme that he is a·ttempting tO C2.!'T7,' OU't. [words indistinct]

in Viet:nam to nust.ify the needs i f they r.appen. Bt:.t since the revol.u.tian of 19lJS,
wnen this country was mobilized and organized in such a way so that the di.Kes co'.UC.
be reparied anO rebuilt and reinf"orced every year, there have been no disa~~r-01.:.~
floods. They have been minimized [words indis:i.nctJ fortified 'to suer, a aee:ree

And I can tell you Sf someone who has witnessed this [words indistinct) tha: i:' t~1.s
year this land is £loaded. the finger can he pointed at Richard Nixon. And I think--:
think (~it's cited) by Professor Yves,La.coste of the University of F'aris--who is a
geographer and he has studied very carefully the si-;;:uation here--the ,damage would De
worse than if he had ordered the dropping of atmoic bombs.
Just to give you one example of the kind of incredible lies that are being told by
the spokesmen of the White House, on July 18, at least a dozen foreiEn correspondents
went to the district of Nam Sach to witness the bombing ttat had taken place to the
dike sys'tem on July 9. While they wene there, U.S. planes dropped 28 bombs or.
the cost strategic and vulnerable point on the dike system. The 12 corresponae~~s
were almost killed by these--by these bombs. And several days later wore. came f!"'orr.

about the U.S. military in particular is that it doesn 1 t allm,,; people to think for-

particularly the soldiers, are beginning to say: fie don't want to be robots anymore;
we will det'ine for ourselves wno 0'.J.r enemy is.
Perhaps the soldiers whQ have been the first to recognize the na rure of the w.::-- in
Vietnam are those seldiers who have suffered the mGst in the United States--the
black scldiers, the brown soldiers, and the red and Asian soldiers.

AFP CORRESPONDENT INTERVIEWS JANE FONDA IN HANOI
Paris AFP in English 1658 GMT 19 Jul 72 C--FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY
[Text] Hanoi, 19 July (AFP)--By Jean Thoraval--American Jane Fonda said today that each
bomb that falls on North Vietnam should be, for every Amerioan, a symbol of the failure
of President Nixon's Vietnamization policy in the south.
During a luncheon interview with this correspondent, Miss Fonda said, "If Nixon bOm.bs
the north and commits such crimes, it 1s for the same reasons as those which led
President Johnson to do the same thing in 1965. The explanation is simple. rt is
because U.S. policy in South Vietnam has failed."
Miss Fonda, who has travelled hundreds of miles through the bombed regions since her
arrival here July 8, was clearly shaken by what she had seen. Sometimes, du.ring the
interview, she could not prevent a tear from appearing at the corner of an eye.
She said, 11 \then one sees these horrors, all these children and woman damaged in their
deepest flesh for life, when all these things which before were abstract became con-
crete realities for me. there was no longer any doubt for me, and I repeat for me, [that
it was] a question or the systematic destruction of the population of North Vietnam."
Several things had struck her. "I was surprised to note that my compatriots--the
military of the Pentagon--had been able to imagine such subtle antipersonnel weapons.
All of the fragmentation bombs are now constructed to fit the height of the Vietnamese.
11
Also, I noted that most of the air raids take place at the time when people are going
to market, during lunch. during the harvests or in the middle of the night when every-
one is asleep. It is as though the bombings are calculated according to the habits or
the population. 11
But Miss Fonda said there was something else even more striking and unforgettable: "It
is that all of these destructions have not at all affected the determination or the
Korth Vietnamese people to fight.
"Perhaps some people are going to think I am engaging in propag_anda but when one is here
I
·and one sees all of the imagination and determination used by these people to combat
the inventions of death developed in the Pentagcp, one can only have an immense esteem
for them. I have the very clear impression that the more one destroys North Vietnam,
bhe more determined it is to resist."
She said the U.S. Government had committed a pisychologic..~l error in its analysis or
North Vietnamese
~ reactions. The US•• wa s n ot aware o r wht"
a ~,oo o years of struggle
agains ... nature and foreign invaders had done to mold a 11 new people 11 •
Miss Fonda witnessed a bombing raid over Namh Dinh, a region regularly bombed over
_the past 3 months, from which she returned yesterday. She said she was obliged to
·halt beside a water-filled individual bomb shelter, such as those which line the roads
and city street11. She said, "Everyone knew I was an American. Those were American
bombs falling:. The people offered me a more comfortable shelter. For 5 minutes,
I found myself in the arms of a young Vietnamese woman. Her cheek was against mine.
It was natural.
"r thought then that one day this war would be won by Nor th Vietnam. It was sad,
however, to think that in the meantime so many people would have to suffer and die."

IV. 24 Jill 72 IIORTH VIETIIAII
It 1• very clear to anybOdy--one who haa been 1n 11am Binh that there are no military .-,i,
target• there. The moat pOpuloua area• ot town were bombed, the textile .raatory was
bombed, the cultural center and the -Bcho.ols were bombed and the hospital was bombed.
'ni.e town or (Phu Li), which doesn't even haTe arv 1nduatr,- in it, praatiaally razed to
the ground, and on (?June 12th) I went to Nam Sach, the district or Ram Sach. As you
know, 12 foreign Journalists were almoat bombed there <>n Jilly 11th, and yet tho Pentagon ...
denies that this bombing took place. They went to aee the eamage that has been done by
extena.ive bombing to strategic pointa on the maJor dike system• or the (Nam Dinh--Dim)
diatriot, and I saw with my own eyes the following day, that the dike has been out in
two in one or the most vulnerable points, and on both sides or, or the d:1ke the~e are
many bomb craters. Th.18 is a district with a population or 100,000 rioe growers and
big breeders. As rar as the eye oan see, as tar as the eye can see a,re rice fields.
'n'lere are obviously no military targets, no gun installations, no truokS, no mllitar7
material.
llelvin Laird the other day said that bombing or the dikes may be taking place, but that
it is accidental, and it only heppens where there io a military target on tOp or the
dike•. Does he really think the Vietnamese would be foolish enough to put a military
installation on tap or an earth dike? And does he really believe that while on the one
hand the Pentagon is boasting or the accuracy or its new weapons such as the laser bomb
and the smart .bomb, on the other hand he can claim accidental bombing or dikes, hy-
draulic systems, pumping stations and dam sluice&.
Whether or not the bombing 1s accidental or not, I don 1 t want to argue. The point is
that its results are genocidal. The danger, not only lies in store tor peOple this
year in terms or drowning and famine but tor marry 'years to cQRe. For I'm told that it
takes many years for the earth, in these earthen dams to solidity gufticiently ~o
withstand the torrential waters that flow down Cran the mOuntain range 1n tho monsoon
season.
I believe that Richard 111xon knows well what he is doing. Diplomatic souroes and
Hanoi have reported that officials within the Nixon administration have admitled that ,-
1
~here are bombings or the dikes in Horth Vietnam. I believe that to the Viet na.mese ,
people it is a national question. The buUding or the dlices, the protecting of their
land has aomething that--is sanething (?that has} been going on ror many thousanda or
years. And ao by, by atriking at these target• he is striking at the very roota or
the Vietnamese nation.
He has tried to Justify these banbings and the bombings· or the civilian target• by
aaying that they are in fact military, but in fact, the Hixon adminiatration haa no
right to bQllb the Dltmocratic Republic or Vietnam for any reason whatsoever, and in
doing ao, it ia a violation of the Oen~va accord and the 1968 bombing halt.
These criminal attempts to destroy the northern part or Vietnam physically and
morally, I think, have to be put into its total context. When Johnson railed to turn
South Vietnam into a neocolony in 196O--uhh, in ahh, in 1965, when it be'came apparent
that people were about to take power into their own hands in South Vietnam, he
started bombing the Demooratic Ropublic or Vietnam. But or c0urse this failed and
he waa forced to the Paris peace talks as you know and to sign the unconditional
bombing halt.
No"" even the top advisOrE:,, like Hixon 1s guerrilla expert Sir Robert Thompson and other
officials in the White House and Journalists admit that the pacitioation program is
being dismantled--~ismantled and the VietMmization program has failed. And so Ri:Jl::on,
who has alwaye tried to negotiate from a poa'ition or strength, is once again attacking
the Democratic Rep-:ib~ic of Vietnam becauqe he has failed in the south and he baa even
tiUT"f'ep;i;ed Johns"n, in· terms or--of the horror and the .destruction--d.estruction that he
iA raJ.l"l:tng upon this part or the country.
IV. 24 Jul 72 K 26 NORTH VIETl!AM
He does this with the assumption that he can break the spirit of the people here,
and then that will give him military and political leverage in South Vietnam, in
Paris and in the United States.
Wich brings me to the second point of my trip to Vietnam: I think 1t 1 s illl.possible

to be in this country without realizing that bombs will never do anything but make the
pecple of Vietnam more determined. Pour thousand years of forging a land out of
marshes and 4,000 years of resisting invaders have prepared them well for anything
that Mr Nixon has to offer.
I have learned a lot about this two-pronged struggle that has gone on for so long in
this country--one, against nature and the other against foreign invaders. And during
all 4,000 years, the Vietnamese people have always maintained a national identity,
a fierce patriotism. They have suffered through 25 years of French colonialism, and
now, after so much suffering and hardship~ the land is theirs, and the people have
taken power.
It seems to me that they are fighting for all their past heroes and heroines, for
4,000 years of struggle and for future generations, who they are preparing well to
carry on the resistance if need be. It is ludicrous to think that these people in
the northern part of Vietnam are temporarily separated from their families and
friends in the south. It is ludicrous, it is ludicrous to think that these people
in the northern part of Vietnam and whose passion for their 'country, its trees, its
land and its party--that these people will ever compromise on the subject of freedom
and independencee It is also ludicrous to think--at least in the news that I've
gathered from the south--that the people there, the 90 percent peasants, who are rising
up and reclaiming their land and their lives, will now, when total victory is so
close, lay down their arms and surrender.
And this is of course what Ni.xon•s call for a cease-fire is asking these people to
do--surrender. Nixon has obviously never read Vietnamese historyp or else he reads
badly, Or perhaps it--perhaps it•s that Westerners have a difficult time thinking
in terms of people's war and self-determination. One thing that I have learned here
and that I will never forget is that Vietnam is one country, that the United States
by violating the Geneva accords and preventing the elections in 1956, turned these
temporary military regroupment zones into political and territorial questions.
How can the Vietnamese invade Vietnam? But there is an invasion taking place. It 1 s
coming from the 7th Pleet, from the aircraft carriers in the China Sea, from Guam
and Thailand.
And it is not by separating the military question from the political question that
Nixon is going to be able to end this war. '!his has become very clear to me since
I 1 ve been here, And it is not by dropping bombs on any part of Vietnam, but by
addressing himself to the seven-point proposal of the political [as heard] revo-
lutionary government, which is after all, a most just and moral and humane proposal,
which meets the needs of the Vietnamese people and certainly the interests of the
American people. The United States must withdraw all its trocps, air, ground and
sea forces from Vietnam. It must set a date by which--by which, by which time all
of these troops will be withdrawn. And it must cease the support of the Thieu regime,
this criminal government in the southern part Of Vietnam. [recording ends]

Message to U.S. Pilots
Hanoi in English to Southeast Asia 1000 GMT 21 Jul 72 B
[Text] Now here is a recorded message from actress Jane Fonda to U.S. pilots involved
in the Vietnam war: [follows recorded female voice with American accent]
This is Jane Fonda. I have come to North Vietnam to bear witness to the damage being
done to the Vietnamese land and to Vietnamese lives.
Just like the Thieu regime in Saigon which is sending its ARVN soldiers recklessly
into dangerous positions for fear that it will be replaced by the U.S. Government if
it fails to score some strategic military gains, so Nixon is continuing to risk your
lives and the lives of the American prisoners of war under the bomb in a last
desperate gamble to keep his office come November. How does it feel to be used as
pawns? You may be shot down, you may perhaps even be killed, but for what, and for
whom?
Eighty percent of the American people, according to a recent poll, have stopped
believing in the war and think we should get out, think W::" should bring all of you
home. The people back home are crying for you. We are afraid t1f what, what must be
happening to you as human beings. For it isn 1 t possible to destroy, to receive salary
for pushing buttons and pulling levers that are dropping illegal bombs on innocent
people, without having that damage your own souls,
Tonight when you are alone, ask yourselves: What are you doing? Accept no ready
answers fed to you by rote from basic training on up, but as men, as human beings, can
you justify what you are doing? Do you know why you are flying these missions,
collecting extra cOmbat pay on Sunday?
The people beneath your planes have done us no harm. They want to live in peace; tney
want to rebuild their country. They cannot understand what kind of people could fly over
their heads and flrop bombs on themo Did you know that the antipersonnel bombs that are
thrown from some of your planes were outlawed by the Hague convention of 1907, of ;1hi~h
the United States was a signatory? I thinK that if you knew what these bombs were
doing, you would get very angry at the men who invented them, They cannot destroy
bridges or factories. They cannot plerce steel or cement. '1.'heir only target is unpro-
tected human flesh. 'l'he pellet bombs now contain rough-edged plastic pellets and
your bosses, whose minds think in terms of statistics not human lives, are proud of
this ,~ew perfection. 'l'he plastic pellets don 1 t shm, up on X-rays and cannot be removed.
The hospitals here are filled with babies and women and old people who will live for
the rest of their lives in agony with these pellets embedded in them.
Can we fight this kind of war and continue to call ourselves Americans? Are these
people so different from our own children, our mothers, or grandmothers? I don't
think so, except that perhaps they have a surer sense of why they are living and for
what they are willing to die.
I know that if you saw and if you knew the Vietnamese under peaceful conditions, you
would hate the men who are sending you on bombing missions. I believe that in this
age of remote-controlled push-button war, we must all try Yery, very hard to remain
human beings. [recording ends]

Hanoi 1n English to American Servicemen Involved in the Indochina War 1300 GMT 22 Jul

[Text] And here is movie actress Jane Fonda addressing U.S. flyers and airmen:
[follows recorded female vot6e With American accent)
j
This is Jane Fonda in Hanoi. I 1 m speaking to the men in the cockpits of the Phantoms.
in the B-52 1 s, in the F-4 1 s; those of you who are still here fighting the war, in
the air, on the ground; the guys in the Anglico corps, on the 7th Fleet, the con!bella-
tion, the coral Sea, the Hancock, Ticonderoga, the Kitty Hawk, the Enterprise.
You know the war isn•t winding down. You know this because you're fighting it. You
know this because you are to bomb (?and you call them in). You direct your artillery.
You pull the levers to release the bombs. You know the tonnage and the damage. You
can see the hospitals and churches in residential areas in smoke and ruin.
So you know that when Nixon says the war is winding down that he 1 s lying; that he has
simply changed his tactics. He thinks that he can get away with it, because he
believes that we have no conscience; that if he reduces the American casualties but
kills more Vietnamese people that we the American people won't care.
But I think he has a very low opinion of the American people. And I think it 1 s a shame
that the United States of America is being governed by a person who thinks this way
about us. He defies our flag and all that it stands for in the eyes of the entire
world.
All of you in your (?heart of hearts) know the lies. You know the cheating on th~
body counts, the falsified battle reports, and the number of planes that are shot down
and what your targets really are" Knowing who was doing the lying, should you then
allow these same people and same liars to define for you who your eremy is. Shouldn't
we then, shouldn't we all examine the reasons that have been given to us to justify
the murder that you are being paid to commit?
If they told you the truth, you wouldn I t fight, you wouldn 1 t kill. You were not born
and brought up by your mothers to be killers. So you have been--you have been told
lies so that it would be possible for you to kilL [recording ends J

Talk on Geneva Accords
Hanoi in English to American Servicemen Involved in the Indochina War 1300 GMT
20 Jul 72 B
[Text] Now listen to the movie actress, Jane Fonda, addressing the OIis on the occasion
of the 18th anniversary of the signing of the Geneva accords: [follows recorded female
voice with American accent]
This is Jane Fonda speaking from Hanoi on the occasion of the 18th anniversary of the
signing of the Geneva accords. And one again I 1 m addressing myself to the U.S. men
who are--who have been sent here to fight, as well, as well as to myself, because I
think that we, we have to remind ourselves a little bit about the history of the U.S.
involvement in the war. It I s, it's , umm, some.thing that I s been k~pt from us , and it ts
really important that we understand, uhh, what our history here has been.
During the French Indochina war, during the time when Roosevelt was president of the
United States, he, Roosevelt, hadn't made up his mind what the approach of the United
States was going to be to the French involvment in Indochina. But after Roosevelt came
Harry Truman, and Truman decided that he was going to take the side of the French,
support the French against the Vietnamese people. And Eisenhower, who became president
after Truman, followed a policy that Truman had already started. Only he went a little
bit further, and by 1953, under the Eisenhower administration, the United States was
financing 85 percent of the French war against the Vietnamese people.
ID
Think of what that means in terms of taxes that our parents were paying in the
United States, quite unbeknownst r.1·· them--the taxes that our parents were having
to pay in order to finance, to buy weapons for the French to kill the Vietnamese people.
In 1954, the liberation forces of Vietnam defeated the French colonial army at Dien
B1en Phu in an historical battle. Following this victory, there was the Geneva
conference and the accords were drawn up, the Geneva accords" The two principal
points of the accords called for a temporary division of Vietnam into two military
regroupment zones, two regroupment zones, separating vietnam into, temporarily into,
a northern part and a southern part. Two years after the Geneva accords, that is to
say in 1956, there was to be a general election. It was to be a general election
held in which the people of Vietnam, from the north and the south, would elect their
president and reunify their country.
However, in 1956 Eisenhower noted publicly that if the elections were held, Ho Chi
Minh would have been elected president of Vietnam by 80 percent of the votes, by So
percent of the people in Vietnam. And this was something that the united States
didn 1t want. And so, a man by the name of Ngo Dinh Diem was installed as president
of south Vietnam. Now g this act, which has been very thoroughly documented in the
Pentagon papers--and I think we should all read those papers, at least the conden--
condensed version of them, very attentively--it clearly shows that this was an act
caused by the United states.
A quote from the Pentagon papers says: south Vietnam is essentially the creation of
the United States. And that 1 s a very important thing to keep in mind when our govern-
ment tells us that there is an invasion from the north. We must remember, that there
wouldn 1 t be a north if it were not for the fact that, that the u.s. Government had
violated the Geneva accords, that Vietnam is in fact one country, with one language,
with one hiRtory of struggle~ with one culture. There are no words in the Vietnamese
language for North Vietnam or south Vietnam in fact"
Presideni; Kennedy once again violated the Geneva accords when he set up tne Military
Assistance Advisory Group, or better known as MAAG, which suppLied the Diem regime
in Saigon with arms and military advisers, One of the stipulations in the Geneva
accord was that there were to be no military personnel or advisers or arms sent into
Vietna.m,
There came a time in the beginning of the 60 1 s when (?it) became very apparent that
the people of Vietnam hated the Diem regime. The Buddhists began to uprise, umm~ and
uhh, at that time i t became impossible tu hide the fact that DiE. m was, uhh, ,Jas tn
1
fa.ct installed by the United States, that he did not represent. the people of Vietnam--
no more than, than Thieu does today-~and it became necessary 1,0 replace him.
And once again if we turn to the--to the Pentagon papers, that is to say the documents
that come from the United states Goverrunent-, written by our leaders of that time, we
see that there was a milita_:,y coup, uhh, with CIA complicity~ which removed Diem.
uhh, from office.
And then we come to President Johnson~ and once again we have to turn to the Pentagon
papers, uhh 9 and it 1 s very interesting when you read about the so-called Tonkin Gulf
incident. you will find that it is a slight fabrication. This$ this incident, which
was used to justify our bombing of the Democratic Republic of North Vietnam, this
was the point or course at which the United states sent, uhh, UoS• forces openly and
in unit strength to Vietnam.
!/
Now, as Americans we should, we should appreciate, deeply appreciate, and understand

the struggle (?that the) Vietnamese people are, are fighting because we live in a
country, we come from a country of, uhh, which has fought a war of, of independence,
and we shed much blood and there was much sorrow over the losses from our war of,
uhh, our, our revolution, the American revolution, which we fought against the British,
and we won despite the fact that our, our soldiers were, were less professional,
had le--had less weapons. We won because we knew why we were fighting, because we
were fighting for freedom and independence. And in that kind of a fight, there can be
no compromise.
Now that is what the Vietnamese are f1--are fighting; they're fighting for freedom.
That is all they 1 re asking for.
There is an invasion taking place. It 1s taking place from the 7th Fleet, from the aircraft
carriers, from Thailand, from Quam, but essentially from the Pentagon and from the
White House.
You men, it is not your fault. It is in fact tragic to think how you are being so cynicall~
used because the time is coming very soon, it is already half-way there, when people
are admitting openly that this is one of the most horrible crimes ever commli.tted by one
nation against another.
(?F.arlier) there was a time when Russia was, was the big monster. That was the excuse
that we used uhh, in the United States to build up, uhh in, during the cold war to
build up, UirlP.l, our military strength and, and develop nuclear weapons and terrible,
uhh, arsenal of, of, of death.
But what is the situation today? Today we have business men from the United States
going to Russia and doing business. We have uhh~ uhh, you know our, our government
leaders going to Russia. We have the, uhh, you know a peaceful coa--coalition, coexistence
with Russia.
Then (?it was} China which became the big, uhh, the big threat; that China was going to
sud:'.:.~nly come across the Pacific Ocean and attack us. Uhh., and what is the situation
today? We have diplomats going to China. We have trade going on with China. Every
day in the United States there are articles talking about, about the, uhh, the beneficial
effects of the Cultural Revolution in China-~when all these [words indistinct] of the
United States= ... how the peasants are living better, how famine 1 s been wiped out, how
illiteracy and prostitution has been wiped out.
(?And then} Vietnam, this tiny little country~-but you see what•s happening in the
United States is that even the men who at one time were planning and plotting the war
are admitting openly to the American public that this is a crime.
Former Secretary of Defense under the Johnson administration Clark Clifforrt, just the
other day, ~n the--in the, uhh, in the United States condemned the war in Vietnam. The
former negotiater in Paris, Averell Harriman, recently admitted in a--in an interview
with the Washington POST that Nixon is sabotaging the Paris peace talks, that a solution
to the war does exist which would bring all of you home and release the prisoners of
war. This solution is the seven-point solution for peact put forward by the Provisional
Revolutionary Government in Paris.
Now, I 1m saying this because I think it would be very sad for any of you to be killed
for a war that very soon even, even the diehards in America are going to have to admit
is, ahh, is, ahh, is, is, is, is truly criminal. I think that it would be very sad to
go on killing innocent civilians--women, old people, antl children--for a war that, ah,

JANE FONDA DELIVERS MESSAGE TO SOUTH VIETNAM PEOPLE-
LIBERATION PRESS AGENCY (Clandestine] in English to East Europe and the Far East
1513 GMT 21 Jul 72 B
[Text] South Vietnam July 21 LPA--On the occasion of her visit to North Vietnam,
well-known American actress Jane Fonda conveyed her following message to the South
Vietnamese people over the permanent correspondent of Oiai Phong {Liberation) radio
in Hanoi:
"I am very happy to have this Opportunity to speak to the peOple in SV on the occasion
of my visit to the DRV.
"I would like to tell you something about what is happening in the U.S. The peace
movement 1n my country is becoming more and more powerful, as it is in your part of
the country. Especially in the last year, we have witnessed more and more intellectuals
and middle-class peOples who are becoming actively involved in a very militant way in
the peace movement. We have witnessed doctors, psychiatrists, teachers of all kinds,
many celebrities in the films and in the theatre, actors and actresses, directors or
leading writers have all participated in demonstrations of all kinds, [sentence as
received] They have signed petititions. 'They have marched on the capitol in
Washington. They have lain down in front of the Senate, and demanded that the war
be ended, that all troops be withdrawn from Vietnam, ground troops, air troops, CIA,
advisors, that the U.S. stop the support of the fascist Thieu regime. They were ex
pressing their disgust that the U.S.A" is spending its money, sending tts young men
and its military equipment to support a government, to support a regime which is a
most criminal and barbarous one. We do not think that our country should come to the
defence of such a regime. My only experiences have' been in the schools On the
military bases, and among the women of America. And I 1 ve seen a very powerful growth
in the peace movement. By the tens of thousands housewives have become actively in
volved, are doing door to door organising in their communities. students have closed
down their colleges and universities and other peace movements have even gone into
the high schools, into the elementary schools where the young students are terribly
concerned about what our government is do1ng in our names and the U.S. �oldien both
[as received] on the aircraft carriers who have signed petititions demanding that
their ships not be used against Vietnam. The men in the air force� in the ground
forces have taken very militant actions including lying down on the runways. blockading
the ships, marching and demonstrating and while are we doing this, we are protesting
above all the murder, the slaughter Of the people of Vietnam. We are protesting the
disruption of your lives and the infringement on your right to freedom, democracy and
independence. We do not feel that our country which is unable to establish democracy
at home is in a position to pretend that it can export democracy to any other country.
We have seen with our own eyes and experienced with our souls the damage [that] is
done to the people in a consumer class society. If we walk on the streets of the big
cities of America we see peOple that aren't happy, we see people who do not know why
they are living, bumping into eech other, not helping each other. We see peOple
drunk or hurt, all peOple lying on the sidewalk and no one helps them. People walk by
and no one pays any attention. People are being murdered in the streets of America
and they cry for help, and no one comes.
IV. 21+ Jul 72 L 5 SOUTH VIETNAM
"we feel that this kind of damage because of the destruction caused to our society by
capitalism 1s a horrible thing, and we weep because our government is trying to export
this cancer to other countries and we weep because of the damage that is being done in
your cities because of the U,SG enc~oachment into your country~ We follow very
carefully the signs of this kind of damagep We are very sorrowful for the young
women who have been forced into prostitution, because of the corruption of the Thieu's
regime, because of the destruction of your economy because of the inflation that has
9
been caused by the war and because of the introduction of the American market systea
and consumer society in your countryo We weep because of the 250,000 orphans wanderini
in your streets. We weep of the dope trade carried out by the people in the upper
echelons in the militarist government which is having such a terrible effects both on
the people of Vietnam and on the American soldiers. We weep at the attempts of the
U.S" to buy off the peace=loving people of Vietnam.
''we understand what it means that the Thieu regime is arresting people by the tens of
thousands and we follow very carefully each new escalation of his repression and we know
this [as] a sign of desperation and ueakness. A strong democratic government doesn't
need to put people in jail. A strong democratic government in fact comes from the
people, is a government for the people and by the people. We understand what it means
that 150,-000 American lives and how aany more Vietnamese lives were lost in order to have
a one=man election in South Vietnam. Is this what democracy [is) all about? Is this
anything that is worth dying for? We understand wLat~lt means when the Thieu regimes
passes economic 1•eforms benefiting U.S. businessmen. We unde:r:•stand what it means that
U.S. businessmen want to set us profit=making businesses and factories in your country
exploiting the cheap labours and we know that this has a direct effect on the American
workers and that is why the American working class is beginning to loudly protest the
war i.n Vietnam. I have had the honor to visit the northern part of your country and
there is something that is moving beyond words.
'What does one see, what have I seen in the streets of Hanoi and the villages and
hamlets which have not yet been bombed and even in those that have been bombed? I
see people who know why they are living. I see people walking hand in hand, people
helping each other. What is this? It is because they are 1!:etermining their own lives.
They are in control of their own lives. I 1 ve been in the factory and I've spoken to
the workers at length. I 1 ve been to the agricultural cooperatives and I've spoken to
the peasants over and ovet• again. These people who obviously are speaking from their
hearts that they are very simple people are laughing and smilJ.ng and talking about the
joy that they are experiencing in helping each other in producing, in living together
communally and then having some kind of control over that they do and feel very close
to the work that they are doing. [sentence as received] I 1 ve been to the school, to
the kindergarten and I 1 ve Seen the great love and attention that is taken with the
ch1.ldren. We 1 re told in the U.S. that in North Vietna.mr the children are taken away
from their families becuase that is supposedly what happens under communist regime.
Well I can tell you the children are being taken away from their families. They are
being taken away from their families because of the American boab.s., because they have
been evacuated from the citiesp and the mothers are weeping and the children are cry1.ng
because more than in any other country that I have ever been in my life there is a true
0
cari.ng and feeling for the family unity here in North Vietnam. much more ,o than in the
u.s. where because of the damage that i& being done to our sensitivities., we don 1 t care
any more even about our own children and families but here there- is great suffering
that because of the American aggression. children have to be aeparated from their families.

JANE PONDA ADDRESSES 'LETTER' TO SOUTHERN YOUTHS
Hanoi in Vietnames e to South Vietnam 0330 GMT 23 Jul 72 S
[Text] During her recent stay in North Vietnam, famous U.S. movie actress Jane Ponda
visited many places and saw with her own eyes the serious crimes the U.S. imperial
ists
were committin g in our country.
Her statements relating this truth are being concealed and despicably distorted by
the U.S. authoritieo,
Expressing her admiration for the spirit of heroic struggle of the southern people and
the high school and college studenta in the southern cities and sympathizing with the
noble death of patriotio youth Nguyen Thai Binh at a press conference» movie actress
Jane Fonda addressed the following recorded letter to the youths and high school and
college student ■ in the southern cities: [follows voice in English f-ading to
Vietnam·ese tranelation--recording] I am. Jane Fonda speaking to you in Hanoi. I have
had the honor of visiting your country. I strongly condemn the crimes that the U.S.
Government, representing the American peoplet is committing in Vietnam. In the United
States increasingly greater numbers of people have demanded an end to the war and the
bombing, an immediate withdrawal of the U.S. Armed Forces and an end to support for
the Thieu regime.
We also support the vtetnamese people's struggle. We understand that you and we have
a common ~nemy--U.S. imperialism. You and we have engaged in the same struggleg and
your victory will also be that of the American people and of all peace=loving peoples
throughout the world. Your hardship-filled stniggle has moved our hearts. We have
closely JWAtlched the i!JOuthern students I struggle in wb:k'lh . aany of you have been
imprisoned for merely wanting· peace and independence. We know quite well the history
of your country. In the Unit·ed States there are unany southern .students from Saigon,
Hue and Da Nang. Most of them are opposed to the war. They have talked with the
American people, explaining that the land of Vietnam is one, has had the same history
of struggle and speaks the same language.
To oppose these antiwar activities, at the Saigon regime 1s request the U.S. Government
has repressed them. Fer instanceg in early .Juhe four South Vietnamese students
received an order from the U.S. State Department to leave the United States for Saigon.
Nguyen Thai Binh was one of these four antiwar students. We have condemned the killing
of Nguyen Thai Binh, whose only crime was to demand independence and freedom for his
country. We are investigating this political assassination and we demand that the
killers be punished.
South Vietnamese students in the United States are very homesick. They consider them-
selves orphans of their native land. While awaiting their teturn to their country,
they understand that their duty is to join the American people in oppoaing the war.
As an America~~woman, I want to tell you that while the leaders in the Pentagon are
using modern technology to ..oppose the Vietnamese people~ right in the United States
9Jll" people are not happy. Men are deprived of their raison d'etre. They always
seek ways to harm one another. They have little R:nowledge of history [word indistinct].
The [word indistinct] U.S. society is not an answer to those who seek happiness. A
famous U.S. poet held that the principle of U.S. society is •to mind one 1 s own
buiness. 11 Thie principle has impregnated the 1outhel"n part ·or your country.
especially Saigon. Howeverg I am firmly convinced that if you are united you can
eliminate this aort of selfish principles. I am also convinoed that the unhappiness
the American people •re Buffering physically and spi~itually will not happen to the
Vietnamese people• and we thank you for bringing us this hope. [ few more words in
English-fading to Vietnamese translation--recording] When I was in the United States
a South Vietnamese student friend taught me a song composed by the South Vietnamese
student ■ who were imprisoned by the Thieu regime. While walking in the streets in the
United States and while talking with U.S. 1tu,enta and soldiers, I wsed to sing that
Ion&', I will sing for you this favorite song ·or mine, hoping that you will excuse
me for my mispronunoiation of Vietnamese. [singing in Vietnamese]

ALLEGED JANE FONDA STATEMENT TO U.S. PILOTS, AIRMEN
Hanoi in English to American Servicemen Involved in the Indochina War 1300 GMT 24 Jul 72 B
[Text] Now let's listen to Jane Fonda speaking to U.S. pll.lots and airmen: [follows
recorded female voice with American accent)
This is Jane Fonda in Hanoi. Yesterday, July 15, I'm told that the record for B-52
bombing raids in Vietnam, [was set] and on July 14th, UPI, UNITED PRESS INTERNATIONAL,
reported that in 11 0perat ion Linebacker" against North Vietnam in the .first 99 days of
the renewed air war in North Vietnam, U.S. bombers flew more than 20,300 raids. In
each of these raids, an average of 2 tons of bombs were dropped on the country.
Now we know that B-52's are strategic bombers. These are planes that were built�
invented to--in the event that a large country with its own air force and heavy arsenal
of military weapons like Russia, uhh, would, uhh, need to be attacked� To use B-52 1 s
against the civilian population is like trying to kill a butterfly with a machinegun.
It's barbaric.
I am assuming t hat because you are so far away from the land here, because you are on
the ships, or because you are in Thailand 9 or because you are so high up 1n the sky
that you can hardly see what it is you•re bombing, that you don't really realize
what the effect of these bom�s is.
And I think, I--Ithink that--well, the other day, for example, someone told me that
one of the pilots that was recent--recently shot down, uhh, near Hanoi, as he was.,
uhh, driven across the river, uhh, uhh, he was, he was, uhh, being being rescued by,
uhh, the people and he was shown a bridge and the people said, uhh, that bri.dge was,
uhh, bombed, uhh, recently. And he said: Well, my parents are rich. Uhh, we can
buy you a new bridge, we can afford to build you a new bridge after the war. And the
people said to him in Vietnamese and it was then translated by the interpreter, they
said, but can your parents replace our. our children, our mothers 9 our wives who have
been killed by your bombs7 And the soldier hung his head and he said: I di.ctn I t
think of that.
I 1 ve heard this from several of the, uhh, pilots--I didn 1 t think of that. I think we
have to start thinking about it. I think we have to start thinking about the incend-
incendiary bombs that are being dropped. These bombs asphyxiate people to death,
people who are in the shelters. tfow, who goes into shelters'? The women, the old
people, and the children--they 1 re suffocating to death. They're being burned in ways
that is beyond the imagination, and I think we have to think about that.
What are you being told by your commanders? Are you being told that you 1 re bombing
to help the people? To save the country for democracy? What kind of democracy?
Fifty thousand American lives have been lost here for a one-man election. Is that a
democracy? What kind of democracy when just after the last one-man election, the
'lbieu regime in the south passed new economic reforms which were· planned and set up
by the United States.
And what in fact do these reforms do'? 'fuey benefit the U.S. ·busines sman. They give
him tax-exem pt go-ahead to make the most incredib le kind or profits
in South Vietnam .
He will not have to pay taxeSa, the rich men in America . 'l'hey will
not have to pay
taxes on the .fortunes that they are making, off the riches in South
Vietnam ,
And this country 1s a rich country~ -the 5011 is rich, the growth
ls rich, the tin, the
tungsten . the rubber, the lumber. Eisenhow er knew it well, that why he said it wae
necessa ry for us to finance 85 percent of the French. the Fr·ench-1
ndoch1na war against
the Vietnam ese people" The people in the Per1tagon knew it. The
Mekong Delta is
called one of the rtcpest pieces of real estate ln Asia,
But what does this have to do with yvu'? What does th_is have to do with the masses of
people in America1 It is not to 0ur interes t, In fact, it is
quite the contrary .
YO\i know that there is rising unemploy ment in the United States.
There is for the
first time sinc.e 1893 a trade def1eit . an irr.balan ce of payment s,

[Text] Now listen to Jane Fonda is r-�eorded ta.lk to U "S, pilc•ts and airmen du:ring
her recent visi·t to Hanoi. [follows recorded female vri-ice with Americ.an accent]
Perhaps 1 t would be a good thing if all of us Knew something about the country that
we are fighting against and the country that you are dropping your bombs on. Vietnam
1s a very old country=�3,000 years before Christ was bo�n the Vietnamese people fought
against the Chinese feudal lords who had taken the land c:rway from the peasants.
In 40 AD the first insurrection occurred among the Vietnamese people to get the Chinese
lords out of their land and win back freedom and independence. This insurrection was
lead by two sisters r Trung Hi and Tr-ung Trac.
The Vietnamese people have==have fought against many outside aggressorso For example,
the Mongolian Army. lead by Ghenghis Khan. 500�000 profess=-professional trained soldiers
who had swept through Europe and Asia, who had conquered half of the world ,, arrived
in Vietnam and were stopped by the Vietnamese peasants o After the�=after the
Vietnamese people defeated the Mongolian Army, they gave them the ships=�Vietnam�=
Vietnamese ships » to take the r«,ngolian Army back to where they�ame fromo The
Vietnamese people have fought against the Chinese, have fought against the Japanese,
and have fought against the French.
They defeated the French colonial army at the battle of Dien Bien Phu in 1954, and
it was after that battle that the Geneva accords we:re signe,d, These ac:ccrds said
that Vietnam would be temporarily div'ided into 't-wo parts==into two regroupmt::-nt zones,
but that this division was only to be a temporary on�. and. that Vietnam wa:s to be
reunited in 1956, by gen�ral elections. Dwight D. Ei�e:nhower was president of the
United States at that time D and he admitted th.at if elections had b-een held as they
were supposed to be according to the Geneva ac:cc.:rds, President Ho Chi Minh would have
been elected president cf the reunited Vietnam by Bo percent of th� votes.
The United States did not want Ho Chi Minh to be presiden.t of Vietnam although this
is what 80 percent of the Vietnamese people wanted r and so, as h�E been proven
by the Pentagon papers J the CIA organized a military coup which overthrew [pause]
which prevented electton:s, and installed a puppet government under Ngo Dinh Diem.
The Diem regime was no different than the Thieu regime of today. It 1s a regime which
is kept in power because of American money and American technology against the wishes
of the Vietnamese people� You are told many other things, perhaps, by the united
States Government� but anyone who has been here and talked to the people" knows that
the Vietnamese people do not like Thieu. they do not==not like the fact that he is
arresting tens of thousands of people, like yourselves, young people in the streets
of South Vietnam who are speaking out against the war and demanding peace.

Message to Saigon Soldiers
Hanoi in English to Southeast Asia 1000 GMT 29 Jul 12 B
[Text] We hOw bring.you a recorded speech to Saigonese troops by American actress

Jane Fonda: [follows a recorded female voice with American accent]
This is Jane Fonda from Hanoi. I 1 m addressing myself to the ARVN soldiers.
Many people in the United States deplore what is being done to you. We understand
that Nixon 1 s aggression against Vietnam is a rascist aggression i that the American
war in Vietnam is a rascist war, a white man 1 s war--{?which) was very clearly indicated
when Ambassador.to Saigon Elsworth Bunker described the Vietnamization program as
changing the color of the corpses.
We deplore that you are being used as cannonfodder for U.S. imperialism. We 1 ve
seen photographs of American bombs and antipersonnel weapons being dropped, wantonly,
accidentally perhaps, on your heads, on the heads of your comrades. And we note
with interest that (?these·) kind of accidents don 1 t happen, at least not with as
much .frequency, to American soldiers, and we thlnk this is an indication of the lack
of concern that is being taken for your lives by the white American officers 0 both in
Vietnam and in the Pentagon and in the White House--not to mention the officers in
Saigon who have been bought off by the ruling class of the United States.
We 1 ve seen photographs of many of you clinging to the helicopters trying to escape

from llflb1t you knew was a suicide mission. We understan d that you have been pressganged,
many of' you, into the army because your lam.has been destroyed by American bombs,
because there are no other Jobs to be had in Saigon i perhaps because you have to
support your family, because you will be the--you will be put in jail and beaten
if you tried to avoid the draft.
We Well understand the kind of situation that yOu are put in because American soldiers
are in the same kind of situation, and we feel that--that you have much in common.
You are b�ing sent to fight a war that is not in your interests but is the interest
of the jp,a.11 handful of pepple who have gotten rich and hope to get richer off this
war and off the turning of your country into a neocolony of the United States.
We read with interest about the growing mumbers of you who are understanding the trmth
and joining with your fellow countrymen to fight for freedom and independence and
democracy. We note with interest, for example, that as in'the case of the 56th
Regiment of the 3d Division or the Saigon army, ARVN soldiers are taken into the
ranks of the National Liberation Front, including officers who may retain their rank.
They call themse lves the orphan s of Vietnam and they

are longin g for the day when
they can return to==to Vietna m and live in a little house
in the countr yside and raise
chicke ns. This 1s what they'v e told us. For the time
being, howeve r$ they feel
that their duty is to remaln in the United States
and do their poli.t1 ca1 work among
the Americ an people .
As an Americ an woman I would like to tell you that

the forces that you are fightin g
agains t go far beyond the bombs and the techno logy. In our
countr y people are very
unhapp y. People have no reason for living . They are
very aliena ted from their work,
from each other Ertd f~om histor y and cultur e. We have
discov eredp especi ally the ymung
people in the United States . that a societ y of 1 uxury
and weal th ls not the answer to
peace and happin ess.
Your leadin g poet To Huu descri bed the cancer of con:s==

of the consumer, societ y as the
poison ing of people 's souls. We have follow ed closel
y the encroa chmen t of the Americ an
cancer in the southe rn part of your countr y. espec ially
around Sa1gon . And we hope
very soon that, workin g togeth erv we can remove this
cancer from your countr y so that
the misery and unhapp iness that has come to the Americ
an people very deep in their
souJ.d will not happen to the Vietna mese people . And
we thank you for your brave and
courageous and heroic fight.
Recen tly in the United States we•ve been doing a lot

of politi cal propag anda work
among the studen ts and the soldie rs with your Vietna mese
comrad es. And they taught me
a song that they tell me was writte n by studen ts in
the prison s who have been impris oned
by the Thieu regime ih_ the south anct I 1d like to sing
the song for you, and I=-I-- I
ask your forgiv eness for my accent . I=-I hope that I 1
m not going to make any mistak es
and say anythi ng. obscen e. [short laugh, then singin g

We think that this is an example of the fact that the democrat ic, peace-lov ing,
patriotic Vietname se people want to embrace all Vie~nam.ese people in forgivene ss,
open their arms to all people who are willing to fight against the foreign invader.
we know what U~S. imperiali sm has done to our country in the United States, how
it
is affecting the working people of the United states and particula rly the people
of
(?courage ). And so we know what lies in store for any third world country that
could have the misfortun e of falling into the hands of a country such as the United
States and becoming a colony. (pause]
We all are striving very hardp the peace loving people of the United States~ to
end
this war a-s soon as possible so that you can all return to your families in the
condition of freedom and independe nce. we understan d that the only way to end the
war is for the United states to withdraw all its troops, all its airplanes , its
bombsp its generals, its CIA advisers an~.to stop the support of the Thieu regime
in Sa.igOn, this man who has defiled not OJlly his own country but the United states.
The support of such a criminal is a blight on the Juqerican (?society which will
take a long time to erase). [recordin g ends]

[Text] We now bring you a recorded message by American actress Jane Fonda to U.S.
serviceme n in South Vietnam. [follows recorded female voice with American accent]
This is Jane Fonda speaking from Hanoi. I read in the paper yesterday that Melvin
Laird has admitted that it is possible that the dikes in North Vietnam have been
hit
by American bombs. He goes on to say that--tha t this can happen when there are
mili-
tary installat ions on top of the dikesD military convoys or material on or near
the
dike.
As someone who has spent now 2 weeks in North Vietnam, who has travelled in the
countrys ide, who has seen the dikes" I find this laughable . Does anyone really
believe that the Vietname se people would be foolish enough to drag military material,
antiairc raft gunsp through the rice fields where there are no roads, where it's
difficul t to even walkp and place them on top of the dikes, which are made of earth,
thus attractin g the bombs or the American planes? If you stand on top or any of
the
dikes in the Red River Delta, you can see around you for miles. It is flat land.
It is rice land. It is very visible, very clear to anyone that there are no military
installat ions whatsoev er. T~ere are no trucks. There are no convoys. There are
no
ant1a1r.c raft guns.
I have s~en the dikes bombed" I have seen them cut in half. For miles around
you
can the rice paddies spread outp and suddenly right around the most strategic and
vUlnerab le point of the dike systemp the bomb craters begin--hu ge bomb craters,
sometimes 10 meters across and 8 meters deep.
There are many kinds of bombs being dropped. Some o.f them are bombs that explode
and--
cut the dikes in half. Some of them, however, pierce the earth laterally . They
are
delayed explosion bombs which lie dormant undernea th the dikes to explode later.
Some of them are causin• earthquak es which make deep fissures into the dike system,
so that later when the heavy rains come, the dikes will break and the ""' ..,ea will
be
flooded.

T make an u:t'gP.nt &.ppea:: ..for a11 peop1~ around thf, \,l'orld.. 'l1his is a 1tery grave and a
vet·y seri(.lu.S situa.ti:..)no ~-he s£:ason of heavy rains is soon to beg:l.n. The people of
l/i1::t1.1am have spent many thousands of yea.rs bu1.lding their dike system. SinGe the
M1dd1e Ages the Red Ri·v'er Del.ta ha~ been struggled against, just as the Vietnamese
peop.Le have fought against foreign invading armies. They have struggled against
nature and they have won back the Red.River Delta. They have conquered the Red River.
They have claimed the land as their own.
These d.ikes are made of earth. There is no way to convey the labor, the oundreds
of people, whose labor goes into building:these dikes. It takes many years tc construct
them. moving the ea~th~ packing it in=-pa.cking it into place.
The dikes that are destroyed this year will take many years to be rebuilt because the
earth has to become solidified in order to hold back the heavy waters during the~-the
heavy' rain seasons. So the damage that is done this year by Nixon 1s strategic
bombing of the dike system will endanger not only the lives and their crops of the
people this year, but for many yea.rs to come. It may cause famine. It may cause
ep.:l;.demics.
There is only on way to stop Richard Nixon from committing IIJtl.BS genocide in the
Democratic Republic of Vietnam, and that is for a mass protest all around the world
of all peace=loving people to expose h~s crimesp to prevent him from following the
people of the world into thinking that if there are floods this year it would be a
natural disaster.
It is a very clever scheme that he is a-ttempting to carry out. [words indistinct]

in Vietnam to ~,ustify the floods if they happen. But since the revolu.tion of 1945t
when this country was mobilized and organized in such a way so that the dikes could
be reparied and rebuilt and reinforced every year, there have been no disastrous
floods. They have been minimized [words indistinct] fortified to such a degree
that the terrible damages that were done in 1945 and 1946 have been prevented.
And I can tell you Br someone who has wit'nessed this [words indistinct] that if this
year this land is flooded the finger c•n be pointed at Richard Nixon. And I think-~I
think (?it 1s cited) by Professor Yves•Lacoste of the University of Pa.ris--who is a
geographer and he has stu~ied Very carefully the situation here ... =the ,:dama;ge would be
worse thah if he had ordered the dropping of atmoic bombs.
Just to give you one example of the k~nd of incredible lies that are being told by
the spokesmen of the White Housep on July 18, at least a dozen fore·ign correspondents
went to the district or Nam Sach to witness the bombing ttat had taken place to the
dike system on July 9. While they wene there, U.S. planes dropped 28 bombs on
the most strategic and, vulnerable point on the dike system. The 12 correspondents
were almost killed by these=-by these bombs. And several days later word came from
the White House that the bombing .ttli.d never ta.--ta.ken plaCe. [recording ends]

ADDRESS TO GI1S IN SOUTH VIETNAM ATTRIBUTED TO JANE FONDA
Hanoi in English to Europe, Africa and the Middle East 2000 GMT 30 Jul 72 B
[Text] We now bring you American Actress Jane Fonda 1 s address to American GI's in
South Vietnam (follows recorded female voice with American accent]:
TM.;s 1s Jane Fonda speaking rrom Hanoi. A phenomenon has been taking place in the
United States called the GI movement.
In 1968 the situation in the American army was qualitatively changed. Prior to
1968, many of the soldiers-�the grunts, the [word 1nd1st1nct], the ground troops
in South Vietnam--had believed what their orr1cers and their generals had told
them: that they were there to help the Vietnamese people, that large areas of
Vietnam had been pacified, that the war was about to be won.
It' you recall, at the end of 1967 General Westmoreland announced: we can now see the
light at the end or the tunnel. And 2 months later the Tet offensive occurred.
And the soldiers were forced to face certain facts. They realized that in order
for the offensive to have taken place, it meant that the very people that they vere
told had been pacified were in fact par� and parcel of the liberation fighters.
Is was these people who were helping the soldiers bring weapons into town, hidden
into the laundry baskets and the---and the bunches of flowers. It was these people
who were part of the struggle.
The men were attacked for the first time on their own American bases and they had
to start asking themselves questions. And they began to realize that they had been
lied to. And since these young men are no longer (?John Waynes)--they 1 Pe not like
their fathers in the Second world wanmqthey began to say no: we no longer want
to die for someone else 1 s lies. we will no longer be wounded for a war that we do
not understand and do not -believe in. ,-
In ,1969-1970 the desertions in the American army tripled. The desertions of the U.S.
soldiere: almost equalled the deseI'tions from the ARVN army, and in the united States
we laughingly said it was the Vietnamization of the American army.
,
fhe new recruits sent to South Vietnam were eeparated from the guys who had been
t:here for a while behind barbed wire so they wouldn 1 t .find out what had been going
on. The men had to turn in their arms at night. Why? Because there were so many
U.S. officers being killed. Fragging--the word fragging entered the English language.
What �t meant was that the soldiers would pre.fer to roll a fragmentation trenade
under the tent flap of their officer. if he was a gung-ho officer who was going to
send them our on a suicide mission, rather than go out and shoot people that they-
that they did not feel were their enemy.
In America we do not condone the killing or American of.ricer_s--we do not condone the
killing ot anyone--but we do support the soldiers who are beginning to think for
themselvee:. I 1 ve spent 2 years working with the antiwar soldiers in the united States,
in the Philippines. in Ck.inawa, and in Japan. I 1 ve seen the movement grow from a
movement or individuals taking courageous action as individuals to thouaknds or soldiers
taking collective action to voice their protest against the war--marching, demonstrating
in uniform and holding up their ID cards, risking to--going to jail if necessary,
jumping ship, the petition campaigns which started on the Constellation in San Diego.-
and spread to the Coral Sea, the Ticonderoga, the Enterprise�, the Hancock, the •
Kitty Hawk.
IV, 3 Aug 72 K 25 NORTH VIETNAM
And word about the resista nce within the America n militar y
has spread through out
the Un1ted states. There was a time when people in the
peace moveme nt though t that
anyone in uniform 9 anyone who was coming over here to suppor
t the Thieu regime , must
be the enemy. But we have realize d that most of these young men were not
fortuna
te
enough to get draft deferm ents~ were not priv1.le ged enough
to have good lawyers or
..,.,ctor s [words indisti nct]. These are the sons of the America
n working class.
They're the sons of the hardha ts. Theyire guys who came because
they thought it
was the thing to do. or because .t t was the only way they
could get an educati on. or
because it was the only way that they could learn a skill.
They beli~ve d in the
army, but when they were herep when they discove red that their
officer s were
incomp etent, usually drunk~ when they discove red that the
Vietnam ese people had a
fight that they believe d in, that the Vietnam ese people were
fightin g for much the
same reason that we rough t in the beginni ng of our own country
, they began to ask
themse lves questiQ ns.
And one of the biggest things (?they began to think) about

the U.S. Governm ent and
about the U.S. militar y in particu lar is that it doesn 1 t allow
people to think for
themse lves. It tries to turn us into robots. And the young
people of Americ a, and
particu larly the soldie rs, are beginni ng to say: We don't
want to be robots anymor e;
we will define for ourselv es who our enemy is.
Perhaps the soldier s who have been the first to recogni ze

the nature of the war in
Vietnam are those soldier s who have suffere d the most in the
United States- -the
black soldie rs, the brown soldie rs, and the red and Asian
soldie rs.
Recent ly on a tour of the U.S. bases on the Pacific rim--in
Okinaw a, Japan and the
Pnilipp ines--I had the chance to talk to a great many of these
guys and they all
express ed their recogn ition of the fact that this is a white
manrs war, a white
busines sman's war 1 that they don't feel it 1 s their place to
kill other people of
color when at home they themse lves are oppress ed and prevent
ed from determ ining their
0wn lives.
Women in the militar y--thos e who are so often forgott en--hav

e their own way of identif -
ing with the Vietnam ese strugg le. I heard horrify ing stories
about the treatme nt of
women in the U.S. militar y. So many women said to me that
one of the first things
that happens to them when they enter the service is that they
are taken to see the
company psychi atrist and they are given a little lecture which
is ma.de very clear te
them that they are there to service the men. They are given
birth centrol pills.
This is a big shock to these girls who ceme into the service
with all kinds Qf high
ideals about what the army will do for themr and the kind
of trainin g that they will
get.
This very power:r ul grassro ots movem ent--the GI mevem ent--is

forging probab ly the
most import ant link in the United States- =the link between
the white middle class
peace movement and the working class. These men who are coming
back from Vietnam ,
their lives in fragmen ts» are putting the pieces back togethe
r in a new kind ef way
with a new kind of unders tanding . And inAe,-,n g so. as they
go into the factori es--
those who are lucky eneugh to get jobs--o r as they stand in--in
the unemplo yment
lines, they are beginni ng to change the politic al comple ction
of the America n working
class.
In Califor nia particu larly-- at least I can talk about Califor

nia because that's where
I 1 m from--t he rank and file insurge ncy among the working class
has augmen ted in the
last 6 to 7 months (?stead ily), and this is particu larly due
to speed up of mandato ry
overtim e, peculi arly true in the major indust ries such as
steel and auto. The young
workers ~ particu larly with the new conscio usness, have become
aware of the fact that
they've been sold out by the nationa l labor leaders hip and
they're indicat ing that a
new allianc e may need to be formed between workers and studen
ts.
rv. 3 Aug 72 K 26 NORTH VIETNAM
Lik~ the soldiers on active duty, the thing that the young workers resent the most is
the fact that--that their lives are being destroyed that they are alienated from their
work, that they're treated like robots.
I think it 1 s important that people in Vietnam as well as other parts of the world know
this--that while America preaches prosperity, the workers of America are suffering m?re
than ever before. The suioide rate among workers has risen more tban.ever ..before. -They
are beginning to realize that Nixonis economic reform is in fact falling on their back.

ALLEGED JANE FONDA ARTICLE ON WOMEN'S STRUGGLE IN U.S.
Hanoi PHU NU VIF:rNAM in Vietnamese No 297 l Aug 72 pp 16-17 S
[Article attribute d to Jane Fonda writte n: ''Tti.e struggle of the Vietnamese People
Has Awakened the American People 1 s Conscience"]
[Text] To reflect American women's feelings about Vietnamese women 9 I deem it

necessary to speak about th e influence of the V1.etnamese p eople 1 s struggle on the
American people in general 9 and especially on 1mer1can women. This influence is
very important, because it has a great effect upon U�S. policies and because the
majority of American women are oppressed.
It is the Vietnamese people's struggle more than any other event in U.S. history
that has awakened the America n people 1 s consc�ence. Armed with�this new knowledge,
the American people have begun to struggle in the United States; they have t,egun tc
struggle in the United States; they have begun to struggle for 'bheir- own liberation.,
This struggle was begun by the Negroes, who are now followed by American women
struggling to liberate themselves o
This struggle for self�liberation is also an anti-imperialist struggle, because we

have been oppressed by the imperialists physically as well as intellectually. It is
U�S 0 propaganda machinery, press and television, as well as the attitude of American
men toward American women that have_·. :>0isoned the A,merican people 1 s mind and have
created a social outlook which regards women as men's playthings or dependents.
Therefore, it can be said that we too are oppressed by the imperialist colonialis ts.
That is why we are struggling against all these things
,American women do not fully understand the history of the American people's struggle,
especially that of .American women. This history has been distorted0 SchoOlbooks
do not mention .American women's heroic deeds during the civil war 1 even during the
war against the British colonialists. They do not mention the wo�en slaves'
clandestine activities to liberate the southern slaves and send them to the north.
All these things, all this history has been concealed. American women have sought
evidence to demonstrate that, like men, women are also courageous, women are also
capable of struggling very heroically, women also can hold weapons, and women can
also endure all hardships o It is in Vietnam that we ti.ave found this evidence.
f
P_rogressive women in the United States fully understand the history of the Vietnamese
women's struggle, from the Trung sisters' struggle 40 years after Christ t6 Mrs
Nguyen Thi Dinh [prasent commander of the South Vietna�1se PLAF).
IV, 24 !ug 72 K 17 NORTH V Il!TNAM
We have spoken much about Vietnamese women to increase our courage and stimulate our
-struggle.
We have contemplated at length the pictures of old and young Vietnamese women working
1n the ricefieldsp wearing rifles on their shouldersp and transplanting riceplants
with their hands; pictures of women bearing heavy loads and walkiqg in the streets;
pictures of women handling antiaircraft guns; pictures of women fighting on the battle-
fields side by sj~e with men; pictures of •1ong-haired" combatantsp and so forth.
We have read many poems by Vietnamese women poetsc After reading these poems we
understood the mothers who lost their children, the sisters forced to live far from
their brothers, and the wives separated from their husbandsg and we share their
sufferings. We feel the same feelings as they. That is why we are struggling in the
forefront of the movement to oppose the Vietnam war. We are following close on the
Vietnamese women's heels. Although I knew much about Vietnamese womenp and although I
carefully studied the Vietnamese women's history~ I was greatly surprised by what I
have seen in your country. A poet wrote: "Vietnam is a woman." I did not understand
it. But now I do. For me~ Vietnam is as ·beautiful as a woman. This is an interesting
realization.
You remain calm, you smile, and you sing, ignoring the exploding bombs. You love and
help one another. You are close to one another. But you do not hide your tears.
These vir.tues have disappeared in other countries 11 especially in capitalist countries;
intellectual women alone dare manifest their feelings in such a way. But in Vietnam,
these feelings have been manifested by everyone. '!his situation has greatly moved
many an Jmerican woman. If such feelingS can survive despite the bombings and towering
cr.1rnes by Nixon, I am convinced that on a certain day they will blossom everywhere
throughout the world.
I am very lucky to come here. I will never forget the faces of the Vietnamese women
I have met here, those w.8.lking on the streets bearing heavy loads, repairing dikes,
holding their babies in their arms. and so forth. The girls are very beautiful; more
beautiful than all the girls I have met during my entire life. I will pursue the
struggle because I have seen your faces, held your hands 11 and met your children. I
promise that after my return to my country I will report all the$8 things to the
American women. The jmerican women are now struggling enthusiastically.
On the day I left my country there was a large demonstration in Washington attended by
many women and children. They surrounded the Congress; they held each other's hands
and made a large circle; they shouted the slogan: "cut the war budget! End the war!"
I can say this: See, jmerica_n women are standing in the forefront of the antiwar
movement. I am convinced that jmerican women have understood Vietnam better and, in
their own way, reflected the beautiful and poetic aspects of Vietnam, thus helping the
jmerican people not only to know what is happening in Vietnam and demand an end to
the bombings, but also to struggle for the Vietnamese i:eople •s victory. Your victory
is the victory of all peoples. '!he Vietnamese women's victory is the victory of
women the world over.
JANE FONDA SENDS MESSAGE TO MME BINH IN CUBA
Liberation Radio [Clandestine] in Vietnamese to south Vietnam 1400 GMT 1 Aug 72 S
[Text] Ha.vana--Learning that minister Nguyen Thi .Binh was visiting Cuba, actress
Jane Fonda, who had just ret urned from Vietnam, sent the min ister a letter voicing
indignation at the barbarous crimes being perpetrated by the Nixon administration
against our country, especially the crime of bombing and strafing northern dikes
and dams. The letter said:
On the occasion of your v_isit to Cuba, we would like to send a warm kiss to you,
to the heroic sons of the Vietnamese people and to the Vietnamese women and children
who are conducting the most valia nt fight in history to regain freedom and
independ ence for their people.
Many of us have visited your country and have seen with our own eyes evidence proving
that the Nixon administration has escalated the war to an unprecedentedly high
degree my bombing intensively and by using new kinds of weapons and chemicals against
civilians and causing death and destruction perhaps as serious as the bombing of
Hiroshima.
We witnessed Nixon 8 s crimes of using B-521s to massively bomb civilian targets, using
antipersonnel weapons, poison gasses and new toxic chemicals and barbarous bombings
with napalm, phosphorous and incendiary bombs. Many o f us saw proof of Nixonls
systematic scheme of destroying dikes and the water conservancy system in North
Vietnam just at the flood season. Never has history witnessed such a barbarous plan
which seri ously threatens the lives of 15 million inhabitants of the Red River valley.
te appeal to all the nations of the world to act to stop these unprecedentedly serious

(Text] What Jene Fonda thin.ks about Patrick Henry's words "Give me liberty or give
me death": [follows recorded female voice with American accent]
All of us know that when we 1 re fighting on the side of right end truth we don't need
bombs, we don t t need force, we don I t need to put people in Ja 11. So we should ask
ourselves why i t is, after having tried Maxwell Taylor's special war, after haying
tried invading Vietnam with 500,000 ground troops, after having tried the Vietnamiza-
tion program, and having all of these different tactics fail--tactics that may change
but are all nieant to carry out the same policy of turning South Vietnam into a neocolonJ
of the United States--why it is now that Nixon, while speaking of peace and wind.:i,ng
down the war, is sending so many ,merican pianes and dropping more bomb tonnage than
ever before in the history of war:rare.
It is because he is trying to stop a people's war. The masses of Vietnamese people,

the 90 percent of the people, the peasants, ( ?now) want to take pow9:r into their own
hands and determine their own lives, own their own land, grow their own rice for
themselves.
The situaticn in Quang Tr~ is--is a particularly interesting one, and of course it is
a very threl:"tening one to Nixon, and that is why he is sending so many of you on these
horrible, ~.arpet-bo:-:-,hin,G mtss:tons, razing that part of the country to the ground.
But you knew, before the pe:..ple in Quang Tri were rounded ·..1p, were taken out of

And so, as has been thoroughly documented 1n the Pentagon papers, the United states,
via the CIA, sabotaged the elections and installed Ngo Dinh Diem as a puppet dictator 1n
South Vietnam--just as we are supporting a puppet dictator, Thieu, 1n Saigon today~ That
was one betrayal of what our country stands :for.
In 1968, a:fter having suffered a series o!' de:feats 1n South Vietnam, and having been
:forced to recognize the fact that the bombing of Vietnam, and the bombing o:f the Democratic
Republic of Vietnam 1n particular, was not going to force the Vietnamese people to give
up their resistance to :fight for freedom, independence, and democracy. President Johnson
was rorced to the Paris peace talks and was ror.ced to ( ?sign) an unconditional bombing
halt and stop all bombings or the Democratic Republic or Vietnam.
Richard Nixon has violated the 1968 bombing halt, and in doing so has been a traitor
to everything that the United States stands for. I would like to state here publicly that
the American people will one day know--the books will one day be open to all of the
crl.mes which ( ?il!.--which--which) Richard 111.xon has committed.
Richard Nixon, history will one day report yo.u as the .new··Hitler, and patriotic Americans
will one day have to work long and hard to erase--erase the blight or your years in of rice.
It is no wonder that you (?go) to such lengths to lie to the world about what you are
doing.. It is no wonder that you are so cynically manipu.latingf the American public into
believing that you are striving ror peace, when you are in ract committing the most
heinous crimes against the innocent civili~n.s of Vietnam.
So when we hear the word treason we should think very carefully, all of us--all peace-
loving people or the world--abOut who is killing, about who is breaking the law, and who
is betraying the best qualities or mankind.
I think that all Americans today would like the U.S. soldiers, the U.S. advisers, the
U.S. planes to come home to America. How can we pretend to be expDrting democracy to
other countries when we can't pretend to practice democracy at home, when we can't pretend
to practice equality at home? There is no equality ror the black people, the brown
people, the Asian people, the red people, the Puerto Ricans, the working people of the
United States.
The very fact that the majority of people want the troops to come home and want the
bombing to stop, and yet this continues, 1s a blatant proof of the fact that Nixon
has betrayed democracy in America [recording ends]
ALLEGED JANE FONDA IMPRF.SSIONS OF TALK WITH U.S. POW'S
15 Aug 72 B
[Text] Here is Jane Fonda telling her impressions after meeting captured U.S. pilots
in the Democratic Republic of Vietnam: [rollows recorded female voice with .American
accent]
This is Jane Fonda speaking from Hanoi. Yesterday evening, July 19, I had the
opportunity of meeting seven U.S. pilots. Some Of them were shot down as long ago
as 1968 and some or them had been shot down very recently. They are all in good health.
We had a very long talk, a very open ana. casual talk. We exchanged ideas freely.
They asked me to bring back to the American people their sense of disgust or the
war and their shame for what they have been asked to do.
They told me that the pilots believe they are bombing military targets. They told
me that the pilots are told that they are bombing to rree their buddies down below,
but, of course, we all know that every bomb that falls on North Vietnam endangers
the lives of the American prisoners.
I\", 10 Aug 72 K 26 NORTH VIE'.l'NA.M
They were not allowed to go out after dark because there were so many mines 1n the fields.
They were sub--submitted to the worst kind of dehumanization and--and (?hmn111ating)
treatment by the ARVN soldiers and by the American GI's, who kept them in the concentra-
tion camps. Many of the women ~ere raped by .American GI 1 s. Many young children are
born Whose fathers are American GI's• and now, of course, they have no fathers.
And the more the war went on ~rid the more the people were brutalized, and the more bombs
fell on them, the more clear it became to them who their enemy was- So that now, when
the People ts Libei~at1on Armed Forces arrived in Quang Tri and joined together with the
peasants to liberate the province of Quang Tri, the people have risen up, in the
words of a jounralist who just came from--from Quang Tri, like birds who have been
freed from their cageso
Why are they rising up? And why are they able to defeat all of 'lttisu 1 s army that he
is sending there? And why are they able to cont1nue :iespite the tons of bombs being
dropped on them? Because they are free; and because from fighting for this freedom, they
are defending their entire 4,000-year past history and all of their futures. They are
defending the suffering and the blood that has been shed by their ancestors as well as
by their mothers and fathers and sons and brothers and daughters ..
They have set up a government; and it is 1nterest1.ng to note that, on this government,
si't; men and women who wer£:e serving the puppet army--many of the former provincial
administrators were elected by the people to serv?. on the new people 1 s counci.L And
why is this? Beca·use the people felt that they had not betrayed the people or caused
them any harm. They had simply given in to the bribes of the Saigon Goveriuneut-Q
So h€!re we see a real living example of a. coalition of the type of coaliti.on th.at is
possible--the k1nd of forgiveness that is possible with the Vietnamese people--a concrete
example of how one of the demands of the 7-pointfi of the Provis:tonal Revolution.ar-y
Government can and will be put into effe~t, so that the revolut1.onary forces as well
as all of the villages and political -tendencies, the neutralists, and members of the
present Saigon Go"Vernment administration can join together as patriots, as Vietnamese.
uhh, for the freedom and--and the independence and democracy of--of their country.
~e should be abl~ to understand this very well as Americanso One of our revolutionary
slogans, called out by. Patrick Henry, ha_s "Give me liberty or give me death." And this
1s not so diff~rent than Ho Chi Minh's slogan "Nothing is more precious than freedom and
independence."
Talk on Democracy
Hanoi 1n English to American Servicemen involved in the Indochina liar 1300 GMT 9 Aug 72 B
[Text] Here is a talk by Jane Fonda about who is betraying democracy in America:
[Pollows recorded female voice with American accent]
Th.is is Jane Fonda speaking from Hanoi. Like tens of thousands of other Americans, I 1 m
extremely concerned these days about the betrayal of everything that my cotmtry stands
for--about the bet~ayal ot O\ll" flag, about the betrayal of the very precepts upon which
our country was founded--equality for all people, liberty, and freedom.
Ip 1954 the Geneva accords were signed, which oalled for the temporary dividing of
Vietnam into two military regroupment zones. The Geneva accords also stated that,
in 1956, general elections were to be held which--which would reunite this country. At
that time, President Eisenhower noted that, if elections were held, President Ho Chi
Minh would have been elected president of a reunited Vietnam by 80 percent of the votes.
They asked me: What can you do? They asked me to bring messages back home to their
loved ones and friends, telling them to please be as actively involved in the peace
movement as possible, to renew their errorts to end the war.
One of the men who has been in the service for many, many years has written a bobk
about Vietnamese history,_ and I thought this was very moving, that during the time he's
been here, am the ti.me that he has had to reflect on what he has been through and
what he has done to this country, he has--his thought has turned to this country
its history of struggle and the people that live here. •
They
all assured me that they have been well cared for. They--they listen to the radio.
They receive letters. They are in good h 1th
ea • Th ey asked about news from home.
I think we all shared during the time that I spent with them a sense of--of deep saaness
that a situation like this has to exist, and I certainly felt from them a very sincere
desire to explain to the American people that this war is a terrible crime and that it
must be stopped, and that Richard Nixon is doing nothing except escalating it while
preaching peace, endangering their lives while saying he cares about the prisoners.
·And I think one of the things that touched me the most was that one of the pilots said
to me that he was reading a- book called "The Draft,,. a book written by the American
Friends Service Committee, and that in reading this book, he had ~nderstood a lot about
what had happened to him as a human being inhisl6 years o·f military service. He said
that during those 16 years, he had stopped relating to civilian life, he had forgotten
that there was anything else besides the milita~y and he said in realizing what had
happened to him, he was very afraid that this was happening to many other people.
I was very encouraged by my meeting with the pilots (?because) I feel that the studying
• and the reading that they have been doing during their'-time here has taught them a great
deal in putting the pieces or their lives back together again in a better way. hopefully,
and I am sure that when--when they go home, they will go home better citizens than when
they lert.

Hanoi QUAN DOI NHAN DAN 1n Vietname se 19 Sep 72 p 4 S
[ "Facts and Truth 11 column: "Nixon's Single Defeat and Double Setbackn)
[Text] As everyone still rernembers p American movie actress Jane Fonda visited Vietnam
in July~ She vehement ly denounced the barbarous and cruel crimes which Nixon and
his clique were committin g in our country.
Filled with both anger and fear, Nixon and his cohorts frenziedl y and falsely
accused
Jane Fonda of "high treason, 11 of "lending a hand to the communis ts, tr and of 11
destroyin g
the fighting spirit of the U. s. forces, 11 and demanded that she be prosecute
d. After
2 months of unsucces sful groping for incrimina ting 1'evidence , 11 the U.S. Departmen
t of
Justice~ according to UPI on 15 Septembe r, on 10 September had to cancel the investi-
gation and retract the accusatio ns against Jane Fonda.
The truth has prevailed , Nixon and his clique have met one defeat after another.
According to the American press, with a victor's dignity and pride in her just
cause,
Jane Fonda "has again continued her tour to various large U.So cities to carry
on the
campaign to accuse Nixon of betraying the people and harming the country, of conduct-
ing cruel aggressio n, and of violating the U,So constitut ion and internati onal
laws."
According to AP on 13 Septembe r, Jane Fonda arrived in Michigan at the invitatio
n of
many professo rs thereo She declared~ '~e must continue to raise our voices,
protest,
and expose the real nature of the war of aggressio n in Vietnam, and at the same
time
must exert pressure on Nixon to demand an end to this war. 11
About the same time UPI reported that Julie Nixon Eisenhouw er, Nixon's daughter
and
Eisenhow er's daughter- in-law [as received] had been sent to Columbus by her father
to work for his "election campaign ." Faced with "tough II questions by newsmen
asking
for her comments on Jane Fonda's statemen ts, Julie Nixon had to say against her
will:
I think that Fonda's aims are goad. I know that she is moved very deeply by this
war. Even though we are separated from each other by miles, I always think the
fact
that she is trying to do something is right. This is not what I should do to
help
zey father, but I cannot condemn her for doing what she thinks right, according to
UPI on 12 September .,
Now what will become of Nixon's face? It is obvious that President Nixon has
met not
only a single defeat but a double setback. Even Nixon's beloved daughter, _a
"relative "
whom he trusted and relied on to act as his lawyer to conceal his crimes and
sirnul taneously as his campaigne r~ had to welcome "Fonda rs aim of accusatio n against
Nixon as being good and right. 11
To tell the truth, even if Julie had intended to follow her parents and insult
Jane
Fonda, she would not have been able to do anything good. For even the whole 11
U.3.
judiciary " apparatu s--with Nixon pulling the strings at one end to harm the innocent
and conceal his very crimes--h as had to yield to Jane Fonda and bow before reason
and public opinion.

MEMORANDUM FOR: PAT BUCHANAN

i!
1;
FROM: KEN KHACHIGIAN
Here is the most egregious material out of yesterday's

performances on the interview shows -- things which I believe
we ought to jump on right away - - one way or the other.
Eagleton was asked what he thought about Jane Fonda making

anti-war broadcasts from Hanoi. His answer:
11
• • • • I know Jane Fonda is a sort of a blithe,
floating figure, a free-thinker and a free-whe . I

wouldn't try to circumscr where she would visit. I
would not enthusiastically support broadcasting in North
Vietnam, but I am not to try to control Miss Fonda or try
to tell her how to live her life and I suspect she will not try
to tell me how to live mine. 11
His absolute refusal to outrightly repudiate what Jane Fonda has

done is a blow against the men who are fighting and who have fopght
in Vietnam. Can you im what would have been said if the same
descriptions were made of I
okyo Rose 11 or others of her ilk.
Perhaps the VFW, American Legion and several on the Hill ought
to go directly after Eagleton on this. Fletcher Thompson has been
giving Jane hell, maybe he '11 do it to Eagleton as well.
McGovern made three statements on "Face the Nation 11 which are

very vulnerable. Asked: 11 1£ in fact you were President and you pulled
all the American troops out, and the North Vietnamese posed some other
condition you didn't get the prisoners back, what do you do then? 11
He responded: nv,r ell, I think it's in our interest to get out in any
event, Mr. I\,1orton. 11 I.e., we get out even if the PO\V 1 s don 1 t come
back. This is a flat-out statement of admission that the POW I s are
secondary in in1portance to getting out of Vietnam. This staternent
got very little press attention, and it ought to be elevated this week.

Abstract
Jane Fonda visited North Vietnam in July 1972. Her actions during that infamous visit
earned her the title “Hanoi Jane”. Many feel she betrayed American troops and the United
States; Vietnam veterans still despise the woman after nearly forty years. A factual historical
account of her actions, words, and political alliances while in Hanoi provides insight to the
strong emotional reactions that continue unabated. Her actions also exemplified the sometimes-
narrow line between antiwar ideology and betrayal. Moreover, despite her stated intentions that
she simply was an antiwar activist promoting peace, the ongoing debate continues if she
committed treason by providing aid and comfort to the enemy.
Her messages broadcast over the communist propagandist Radio Hanoi changed how the
American troops perceived the political will of the United States from the beginning of the war
to its latter stages. Fonda‟s words to the American POWs and servicemen embodied the
inextricable connection between public support from the home front and the war effort overseas.
Her statements against American prisoners-of-war and active pilots were so devastating that the
North Vietnamese used them as a propaganda tool to deflate the morale of the American troops.
The iniquitous legend of “Hanoi Jane” continues because Jane Fonda caused irreparable
emotional damage to Vietnam veterans.

Introduction
Thirty-seven years ago, actress Jane Fonda visited North Vietnam. Her actions there
earned her the title “Hanoi Jane” and thousands of Vietnam veterans today still abhor her. Many
feel she betrayed the American troops and the United States. News articles began covering the
story immediately after her visit in July 1972, and related articles have continued for nearly forty
years. Interview transcripts and published literature document the fallout of her radio broadcasts
and the subsequent treatment of the POWs at the hand of their captors. Millions of Americans
still link her name with Vietnam, and those who do are not necessarily well over fifty years old.
For example, a group of Generation Xers was visiting an Air Force base and the tour included a
display of antiquated antiaircraft artillery batteries. One of the visitors sat in the seat and peered
through the sights of the gun. A voice from the group shouted, “Jane Fonda!” Typing “Jane
Fonda and Vietnam” into a Google search returns 356,000 hits. The vast majority of the
information reflects hatred and anger toward her behavior, but a few bits of information support
her views and her right to express them. Myths have surfaced over time to cloud what really
occurred, however, the facts abound with credible documentation. What happened during her
visit still elicits strong emotional responses from former POWs and veterans of the Vietnam era.
A thorough examination of what actually occurred and the resulting opinions of former
prisoners-of-war and Vietnam veterans give credence to the government‟s investigation of
possible treason charges against her. Ultimately, the United States government did not indict her
for treason or sedition, and she was not held accountable for her actions in North Vietnam.
Consequently, the issue of “Hanoi Jane” has transcended the years. To examine the effects of
her visit, the truth must first be sorted from the myths, and her stated intentions must be
considered along with the opinions of her supporters. The documented facts, coupled with the
1
effects on the POWs and American troops lead to the conclusion that her actions and anti-
American/pro-communist sentiment severely damaged the morale of the American POWs and
servicemen in Vietnam.
Myth or Fact?
As with any widely reported newsworthy occurrence, the account of Fonda‟s visit to
Hanoi changed and became embellished over time. A story that quickly spread among veterans
was that when Jane Fonda met with seven POWs, they each surreptitiously slipped a small piece
of paper with their social security number into her hand as she shook hands with them
individually. They intended for Miss Fonda to take the information covertly back to the United
States so that their families and loved ones would know that they were still alive. After
accepting the slips of paper, she purportedly promptly turned them over to the North Vietnamese.
Ret Col Larry Carrigan was mentioned as one of the prisoners that met with Fonda and pressed
the slip of paper into her hand. The North Vietnamese shot Carrigan down in 1967 and he spent
years as a POW. By his own account, he never met Jane Fonda and he does not know how his
name became associated with the inflammatory story.1 Edison Miller, a former Marine Corps
pilot, was among the prisoners who met with Jane Fonda in 1972. He claims he did not give her
2
a slip of paper and neither did the other six prisoners. Air Force pilot Jerry Driscoll allegedly
spat on Fonda, which resulted in such a severe beating that he still suffers from double vision.
Driscoll also never met Jane Fonda, “Totally false. It did not happen.” 3 Mike McGrath,
President of Nam-POWs, also disclaims the myths and refers to them as email hoaxes. He does
not want the false stories propagated and attributed to the Nam-POWs organization.4
Widespread rumors that her radio broadcasts and antiwar propaganda caused the killing
of prisoners had no known factual bases and these allegations are not considered true. However,
2
there were reported instances of torture directly related to her visit. Michael Benge, a civilian
working for the U.S. Agency for International Development, was captured in South Vietnam by
the Viet Cong and was in a Hanoi prison in 1972. He recounted his experience, “When Jane
Fonda was in Hanoi, I was asked by the camp communist political officer if I would be willing to
meet with her. I said yes, for I would like to tell her about the real treatment we POWs were
receiving, which was far different from the treatment purported by the North Vietnamese, and
parroted by Jane Fonda, as „humane and lenient.‟ Because of this, I spent three days on a rocky
floor on my knees with outstretched arms with a piece of steel re-bar placed on my hands, and
beaten with a bamboo cane every time my arms dipped.”5 David Hoffman‟s plane was shot
down over North Vietnam in 1971 and he also claimed that he was tortured due to her visit.
The torture resulted in a permanent injury that plagues me to this day.

When Jane Fonda turned up, she asked that some of us come out and talk
with her. No one wanted to. The guards got very upset, because they
sensed the propaganda value of a famous American war protestor proving
how well they were treating us. A couple of guards came to my cell and
ordered me out. I resisted, and they got violently angry. My arm had
been broken when I was shot down, and the Vietnamese broke it second
time. It had not healed well, and they knew it caused me great pain.
They twisted it. Excruciating pain ripped through my body. Still I
resisted and they got more violent, hitting me and shouting, „You must
go!‟ …I was dragged out to see Fonda. I decided to play the role. I
knew if I didn‟t, not only would I suffer - but the other guys would be
tortured or beaten or worse.6
Although some stories are fabricated, there are a multitude of truthful and credible
accounts. At the time of her visit in July 1972, there were still hundreds of prisoners being held
in North Vietnam and the Viet Cong held scores of POWs in South Vietnam. Jane Fonda‟s
actions during her two-week NVA-sponsored visit to Hanoi unquestionably had adverse effects
on the American servicemen, regardless of her stated intentions.

Jane Fonda’s Stated Intent and Views of Her Supporters
Jane Fonda began studying the Vietnam War while living in Paris. Her frequent
houseguests were dedicated Communists that stressed the evils of her home country. Initially
Fonda felt compelled to defend the United States to her Communist friends, “but then I saw
Americans at home protesting the war by the hundreds of thousands, and soldiers deserting. I
began to study and read.”7 Keeping a low profile, she did not speak out publically against the
war until two years later in 1970.8 Perhaps influenced by her communist friends, she announced
in a speech at Duke University, “I am a Socialist, I think we should strive toward a socialist
society – all the way to communism. I would think that if you understood what communism
was, you would hope, you would pray on your knees that we would someday become
Communist.”9 By the end of 1970, Fonda was drawn into the antiwar movement and gained
national visibility for supporting GIs and veterans in their endeavors to end the war.10 Prior to
the fateful visit to North Vietnam, Fonda‟s antiwar activities included speaking at GI
coffeehouses and college campuses, using her celebrity status to encourage the audiences to
oppose the war and urge them to consider the perspective of the Vietnamese. She suggested to
her audiences that it might be better to receive a dishonorable discharge than to have to serve in
Vietnam. She talked about filing for conscientious objector status and told them where they
could get legal assistance if they chose that option.11 Fonda believed that most soldiers wanted
peace and freedom, and someone needed to speak up in their support. She enlisted the help of
writers, musicians, and other actors to form a troupe to perform the “Free the Army” revue.
Banned from military bases, the revue performed in coffeehouses near the bases.12 In 1971 she
lectured “…it is time for the American people to know that the My Lai massacre happens daily
in Vietnam. It is not an isolated incident and it is not the result of individual soldiers going
4
crazy, freaking out on dope, or going criminally insane. It is the result of the policy formulated
in our government, by our leaders, by the CIA, by the Pentagon, by the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
These things happen, perhaps on a lower level, but they happen daily in South Vietnam.”13 She
had hoped to travel to Hanoi to carry letters to POWs as early as March 1971, but a new air
assault endangered the commercial air corridors and all visas for international visitors were
cancelled.14
As an invited guest of the communist‟s North Vietnamese Committee of Solidarity with
the American People, Fonda ostensibly traveled to Hanoi in July 1972 as a peace activist and
antiwar protestor. She departed for North Vietnam intending to deliver hundreds of letters for
American prisoners-of-war from their families and to observe the effects of U.S. bombing
raids.15 Fonda arrived in Hanoi dressed in black pajama pants and a white tunic, meeting her
hosts with greetings from the revolutionary comrades in America. She believed if the
Vietnamese could see the Americans as potential friends, the Americans could also see the
Vietnamese as friends.16 She insisted her only objective was to meet with the North Vietnamese
to help end the war.17 Her purpose for the two-week visit was to film life in the war zone and
investigate the bombing of the dikes.18
Damaged dikes posed a grave problem for the North Vietnamese peasants with the
upcoming rainy season; resulting floods had the potential to cause death by drowning and
subsequent famine due to the loss of rice crops to flood waters. The issue of the dikes was
already an international concern to which President Nixon angrily responded that if the dike
system were indeed a target, it would be mostly destroyed within a week. Many of the dikes ran
parallel to roads and railways; others were near bridges or petroleum tanks. Inevitably, some of
5
the dikes were collateral damage. The State Department reported, “The evidence shows
conclusively that there has been no intentional bombing of the dikes.”19
Fonda personally examined bomb craters and filmed villagers manually filling the holes.
She believed that the United States was purposely and systematically bombing the dikes; she did
not think the dike damage was related to military targets. She claimed, “In the area where I went
it was easy to see that there are no military targets, there is no important highway, there is no
communication network.”20 Fonda stated, “Our government was lying to us and men were dying
because of it, and I felt I had to do anything that I could to expose the lies and help end the
war.”21 The North Vietnamese government showed Fonda rubble of damaged hospitals and
schools in the bombed villages, as well as damaged dikes and destroyed antiaircraft sites.
The destruction horrified Fonda and she asked her hosts to allow her to make radio
broadcasts to the American pilots; she felt it was her moral imperative to do so. She asked the
American pilots to stop the raids into North Vietnam. She wanted the pilots to think about what
they would see on the ground if they ever visited the places they blasted.22 Following a visit to
the Bach Mai hospital, Fonda made a radio broadcast telling the pilots that the hospital had been
purposely targeted and bombed, resulting in the destruction of patient-filled wards and hospital
equipment, as well as the deaths of some doctors. She asked them why they would follow orders
to destroy a hospital or bomb a school.23 “I appealed to them to please consider what you are
doing,” she stated at a news conference, “I don‟t think they know.”24
During another radio transmission, Fonda described the Vietnamese as she saw them,
“Every man, woman, and child in this country has a determination like a bright flame, buoying
them, strengthening their determination to go forward, to fight for freedom and independence.”25
Fonda viewed the North Vietnamese as fighting to defend themselves from the American
6
aggressors.26 She saw them as a peasant people who posed no threat to the United States.27 In
one of her radio broadcasts to the POWs, she said, “The people beneath your planes have done
us no harm. They want to live in peace…if you knew the Vietnamese under peaceful conditions,
you would hate the men who are sending you on bombing missions.”28
Fonda felt justified in her antiwar speeches, claiming the people who spoke out against
the war were the patriots.29 She said, “I cried every day for America. The bombs were falling on
North Vietnam, but it is an American tragedy.” 30 Fonda claimed she did not want the U.S. to
lose the war or for the soldiers to be killed, she just wanted our country out of the war.31
She did not regret making the trip to North Vietnam or making her antiwar views known.
Perhaps Fonda believed she was acting in the long-range interest of the United States to which
she owed allegiance and to which she remained loyal.32 Tom Hayden, one of the founders of the
Students for a Democratic Society and former California State Senator said of his ex-wife,
“Fonda was neither wrong nor unconscionable in what she said and did in North Vietnam.
Erased from public memory is the fact that Fonda‟s purpose was to use her celebrity status to put
a spotlight on the possible bombings of Vietnam‟s system of dikes.”33
Author Mary Hershberger wrote that the public memory of Fonda‟s opposition to the war
became tangled with the loss of the war. Hershberger also believed the allegations of Fonda‟s
betrayal of her country and causing harm to the American POWs in Hanoi were false; she had
not participated in secret political activities; and her antiwar action was a model of democratic
dissent.34 “Jane Fonda became the perfect target for those who found defeat in Vietnam
inexplicable and humiliating.”35 In spite of the harsh criticism, Jane Fonda remained a much-
admired icon to many. Supporters felt Fonda exhibited courage by speaking out in opposition of
7
the war. She jeopardized her career and maintained composure in spite of the intense scrutiny of
36
her actions.
Not all Vietnam veterans felt contempt for Fonda or her actions and considered her as a
possible means to help end the war. As stated by one veteran: “When I was in Ashaw valley
being shelled by artillery fire coming from Laos and the rounds kept walking closer and closer to
my foxhole, I prayed to Jane to get me the hell out of there. I was no more upset with Jane than I
was with many of her critics who never put their life or reputation on the line to take any action
concerning the war other than to make a profit.”37 The Vietnam Veterans Against the War
(VVAW) was an influential anti-war organization during the era, with 25,000 members at the
height of the war. Jane Fonda supported the group financially and frequently spoke at antiwar
rallies set up by the VVAW.
Fonda has never apologized for her opposition to the Vietnam War and claimed she never
will.38 She never thought the visit was a mistake and maintained a sense of pride for making the
trip. She only regretted being photographed sitting in a North Vietnamese antiaircraft gun site,
which she claimed conveyed the wrong message of her intent to help end the war and stop the
39
killing. At the time, she thought sitting in the place of the young North Vietnamese at the
antiaircraft site would express solidarity with the reality of their lives.40 Sixteen years later, in
1988, she apologized for her poor judgment on national television. Fonda publically stated that
she would go to her grave regretting that photograph.41 Her apology included a message to the
men who were in Vietnam: “My intention was to help end the killing and the war. But there
were times when I was thoughtless and careless about it, and I‟m very sorry I hurt them, and I
want to apologize to them and their families.”42
8
During a 60 Minutes interview in 2005, Fonda spoke of the fury against her that
continued for over 30 years, “It makes me sad, because I think it‟s ill-placed anger. I understand
that I am a lightning rod, and I know why the anger is there.”43 In a 2007 interview, Fonda said,
“That whole „Hanoi Jane‟ thing isn‟t really about what it seems to be about. There‟s a gender
and class aspect to it: I‟m a privileged, famous woman sitting on that gun. I handed it to them –
it‟s my fault.”44 For many Vietnam veterans the apologies were too little and too late. Former
POWs recounted what actually occurred as a result of her antiwar actions during her visit in
1972.
Her Actions and Subsequent Effects
Fonda‟s North Vietnamese hosts provided a guided tour to predetermined bomb-damaged
military and civilian sites, which incited her to request to send radio messages to the American
pilots. As a result, she made ten live and taped radio broadcasts over the propagandist Radio
Hanoi. She interviewed seven American POWs who were forced to meet with her. In the latter
part of her visit, she met with senior communist officials.
The American troops were forced to listen to her radio broadcasts as she lamented the
crimes committed against the Vietnamese. Inside the Hanoi Hilton prison camp, her words were
broadcast repeatedly day and night until, as one prisoner said, “we almost went fucking crazy.”45
She referred to the pilots as “American imperialist air raiders”.46 The guards broadcast a taped
recording of Fonda singing with a group of women; the song was called “Fuck the Army”.47
The much-publicized meeting of Jane Fonda with the group of POWs was a staged “press
conference” by the North Vietnamese. The scheduled meeting with the POWs was not held at
the prison; in fact, Fonda did not visit POW camps. Although the seven POWs were from the
infamous “Hanoi Hilton”, Fonda never requested to visit the prison camp. The seven prisoners
9
were bused to the headquarters of the Army film studio on the outskirts of Hanoi. They lined up
and sat in a row across a table from Jane Fonda. Prior to the scheduled meeting with the
prisoners, one of them was tortured until he agreed to appear.48 Fonda claimed during her long
talk with the prisoners, they told her that they were being treated humanely, they were not being
tortured, and they were eager for the U.S. to pull out of Vietnam. They were clad in purple and
red striped uniforms and ate dinner with Fonda while the event was captured on camera. Their
facial expressions appeared stressed and dazed. With cameras clicking and prisoner guards
present, the POWs unsurprisingly told her that they were being treated humanely. Later Fonda
recounted, “When I asked them if they were brainwashed, they all laughed. Without exception,
they expressed shame at what they had done.” She followed that statement with an attack on
American prisoner-of-war camps where she claimed that American captors tortured North
Vietnamese prisoners.49 The meeting with the pilot POWs gave Fonda encouragement; she said
they were reading and putting their lives together in a better way and hopefully they would return
home as better citizens then they were before they left.50 Fonda made a radio broadcast
announcing to prisoners and the American troops that during her long talk with the seven POWs,
they assured her they were in good health and they exchanged ideas freely. She stated they were
disgusted with the war and wanted their loved ones back home to become active in the peace
movement. She said the POWs assured her they were well cared for.
The statements made over the radio about her meeting with the seven pilots were not true.
The meeting was not a casual free exchange of ideas. They did not tell her they were disgusted
with the war or that their loved ones should join the peace movement, and they were not in good
health.51 Doug Clower, a Navy pilot shot down early in the war was held captive for eight years.
He recalled as he was listening to Fonda‟s radio message, claiming that the North Vietnamese
10
were treating the POWs well, he watched through a window as his friend was being severely
beaten by prisoner guards.52
Fonda claimed the pilots were using bombs and weapons that were illegal and, by doing
so, they were war criminals. She asserted in Germany and Japan such war criminals were
executed according to international law. She accused the Americans of bombing non-military
targets, such as villages, hospitals, factories, pagodas, and dikes. She asked them if they could
justify being murderers and told them that their mothers did not raise them to be killers.
POWs were not the only intended audience for her broadcasts; she also targeted active
duty pilots and ground troops. She specifically addressed servicemen “in cockpits of Phantoms,
F-4s, B-52s, the Anglico Corps, on the 7th Fleet, the Constellation, the Coral Sea, the Hancock,
Ticonderoga, the Kitty Hawk, the Enterprise”…53 Fonda referred to the Vietnamese fighters as
her “friends”. In her radio broadcasts, she asked how the American pilots liked being used as
pawns.54 Fonda denounced their acts as immoral.
Perhaps these actions seemed immoral to some college students and perhaps a few
politicians, but the POWs were men at arms and it was their duty to follow orders and uphold the
policies of their elected civilian leaders. The prisoners thought they had been doing their duty
and being called immoral struck at their hearts, at their concept of honor.55 Henry Kissinger
thought Fonda seemed intent on publicizing the North Vietnamese cause. He said, “She knew
precisely what she was doing – she wanted Hanoi to win. What she did was totally immoral”.56
Excerpts from her radio transmission describing her impressions at the end of her two
week visit to North Vietnam included “I saw Vietnamese actors and actresses perform the second
act of Arthur Miller‟s play All My Sons, and this was very moving to me - the fact that artists
here are translating and performing American plays while U.S. imperialists are bombing their
11
country.” and “…I think Richard Nixon would do well to read Vietnamese history, particularly
their poetry, and particularly the poetry written by Ho Chi Minh.”57 The North Vietnamese
people and their communist ideology greatly impressed Fonda and she expressed those thoughts
through her radio broadcasts.
The Hanoi radio messages were translated and broadcast to South Vietnamese youth,
students, women, and military. Fonda labeled the South Vietnamese troops as “cannon fodder
for U.S. imperialism” and added that U.S. presence in Southeast Asia was racial aggression in a
white man‟s war. She described U. S. bombings of South Vietnamese troops as wanton, perhaps
accidental, and showed a lack of concern for their lives by the white American officers in
Vietnam, in the Pentagon, and in the White House. Fonda added yet another condemnation of
America by stating, “We know what U. S. imperialism has done to our country in the United
States, and so we know what lies in store for any Third World country that should have the
misfortune of falling into the hands of the United States and becoming a colony”.58
Jane Fonda also made the following quotes, characterizing her two-week visit: “I am
very honored to be a guest in your country, and I loudly condemn the crimes that have been
committed by the U.S. Government in the name of the American people against your country.”
“We have understood that we have a common enemy – U.S. imperialism.” “We have followed
closely the encroachment of the American cancer in the southern part of your country, especially
around Saigon. And we hope that very soon that, working together, we can remove this cancer
from your country…” “We thank you, (the Viet Cong and the North Vietnamese) for your brave
and heroic fight.” “The Vietnamese people will win.”59 Near the end of her visit, Fonda met and
socialized with high-ranking North Vietnamese officials. During her meeting with Nguyen Duy
Trinh, Vice Premier of North Vietnam, Fonda expounded on how deeply impressed she was with
12
the Vietnamese people‟s determination to emerge victorious. She also told him that his people
would “certainly triumph over the Americans”.60
As information of what she said in North Vietnam returned to the United States, critics
were doubtful that she came up with the verbiage on her own, as she claimed. Jane Fonda was a
relatively young actress who lacked political knowledge, was ignorant of history, and had nearly
non-existent experience in international affairs.61 Yet she suddenly knew about neocolonialism,
the 1954 Geneva Accords, what constituted military targets, various aircraft models, the names
of the aircraft carriers off the coast, and types of ordnance. She made reference to Anglico (Air
Naval Gunfire Liaison Company), an elite group of the Marine Corps. By citing accurate
information using proper jargon, it seemed obvious that she was reading from a script created by
professional propagandists sprinkled with Fonda‟s occasional ad-libs. The critics also thought
that some of her diatribes contained words and syntax that sounded as if English were not the
first language of the writer. It was apparent to the critics that the political language did not
originate with Jane Fonda and she was a willing participant in collaboration with the
Communists.62 When Fonda met with the seven POWs, she gave the impression of reading from
a script. One of the POWs said at one point she got lost in what she was saying, went back and
repeated exactly the same words for a few sentences, as if to get back on track.63
After returning to the United States, Fonda made a television appearance on the Dick
Cavett show, a popular talk show during the 1970‟s. Her greeting to the audience was a raised
fist, the Black Panther salute. She reportedly sounded shrill and arrogant and her comments
contained gross factual errors. She stated the imperialist American aggressors were only
pursuing the Vietnam War because the U.S. wanted the region‟s “tung and tinsten” (tin and
tungsten).64
13
CIA contractor Edward Hunter analyzed the Radio Hanoi broadcasts and doubted Fonda
was intelligent enough to have composed the speeches without coaching. He thought her
utterances disclosed skilled indoctrination. The chair of the House Internal Security Committee
Richard Ichord agreed with Hunter and said the proof was in her use of military terms that would
not have been within her knowledge.65
When Fonda returned from North Vietnam, she continued touring college campuses,
telling college students that she brought them greetings from our Vietnamese brothers and
sisters. She expressed grief over the war damage she had seen in North Vietnam caused by the
American forces and showed off a new piece of jewelry given to her by the communists in Hanoi
- a ring made from the melted parts of a shot- down U. S. aircraft.66 She continued her
disparaging remarks against the POWs well into the next year, when the prisoners began
returning home.
By 1973, several national newspapers began publishing accounts of prisoner torture.
Although she believed there were some incidents of torture (“Guys who misbehaved and treated
their guards in a racist fashion or tried to escape”67), she did not believe it was as widespread as
the POWs were reporting. Jane Fonda was quoted as saying the POWs were “hypocrites and
liars”.68 Secretary of Defense Elliot L. Richardson lashed back at Fonda with his statement,
“That remark by Jane Fonda was an egregious insult to all of our returning prisoners. A person
making such a judgment is badly motivated or simply fails to want to understand what he or she
can plainly perceive.”69
Credible military officers were describing the incomprehensible atrocities delivered by
the North Vietnamese captors during their imprisonment. Medal of Honor recipient Colonel
George “Bud” Day suffered a macabre ritual torture among other forms of torment and beatings.
14
His captors looped a rope around his shoulders and tightened the rope until his shoulders nearly
touched, and then hung him by his arms from the rafters of the torture room, literally tearing his
shoulders apart. He was left hanging for hours.70
A prisoner since 1967, John McCain suffered through a period of time when he was
beaten every two to three hours. He had cracked ribs, broken teeth, and when he could no longer
stand, he was kicked in the head.71 Beginning in 1968, John McCain endured nearly two years
of solitary confinement during which he slowly began to regain some use of his badly broken
72
arms. By 1969, he started to keep down more food after a long bout with dysentery.
Former POW Mike McGrath explained, “The unbearable pain of torture invariably
brought screams from the prisoners. To prevent the screams, the Vietnamese guards would stuff
dirty rags into your mouth with a rusty iron bar that would chip the teeth and tear the skin off the
roof of the mouth. If you resisted by gritting your teeth, the guard would continue to shove until
your teeth broke or you opened your mouth.”73
Another former POW recounted his harrowing experience:
I still marvel at their ability to torture, without conscience or remorse, an

injured man almost to the point of death. I had a severed humeral head…
and the humeral head of my left arm was severely dislocated and shoved
next to the ribs and scapula. My knee was dislocated. I had compression
fractures in least two areas of my back. The back fractures left me
powerless to move my head or hold my head up when they sat me up.
My chin hung down on my chest. The pain in my left arm was
agonizing. Yet they brutally tortured me for three days by twisting my
good arm behind my back until my right shoulder and right elbow were
dislocated. I tried to scream, but they had stuffed dirty rags between my
teeth and into the back of my throat. I gagged and snorted and blew snot
from my nostrils in a desperate attempt to get enough air to breathe and
stay alive. After the three-day intense hourly sessions, they left me lying
on the floor for the next 15 days to see if I lived or died. I couldn‟t sleep
as every time I passed out from exhaustion, my broken left arm slipped
from the grip of my right hand and I would begin screaming in pain. I
had to stabilize the left arm at all costs. I couldn‟t lay it down in any
position, even on my chest. I had to hold it and stabilize it at all times.
15
By the end of that 15 days with no sleep I was stark raving mad and in
delirium. I couldn‟t remember days or sometime distinguish days from
nights…so I made a mark on the wall each sunrise. I had to stabilize my
arm for the next several months. Luckily, I found a nail in a wall and tied
my wrist in an upright position to the nail. This allowed me to fall into
deep sleeps while in a delirious state. Then the dysentery
started…shitting 40 times a day, living in my own filth. Well, you get
the idea. They were bastards. Some of us were lucky to live. Others
died.74
Amid all of the information becoming known, Fonda still maintained her claim that the
POWs claiming they were tortured were probably exaggerating for their own self-interest. Her
response to the POWs‟ increasing number of accounts of brutal mistreatment and widespread
torture was “We have no reason to believe that U.S. Air Force officers tell the truth. They are
professional killers.”75 She believed, the POWs she met were not tortured, starved, or
brainwashed.76 As the stories of torture began to gain credence, she stated, “Tortured men do not
march smartly off planes, salute the flag, and kiss their wives. I also want to say that these men
are not heroes.”77 Fonda added that the condition of the returning prisoners should speak for
itself to prove that they had not been tortured. Yet, it was the very condition of those men that
made believers out of skeptics of POW torture. The North Vietnamese were guilty of heinous
treatment of American prisoners and they were apparently successful at fooling Jane Fonda, who
perhaps should be classified as a “dupe”.78
Jane Fonda‟s statements, broadcast over loud speakers to American prisoners-of-war, and
over the radio to the active duty, had a devastating effect on their morale. Her actions went
against tradition; visiting Americans, famous entertainers, and movie stars, were expected to
boost the morale of the soldiers, as was the norm during World War II. Fonda was not the only
celebrity to visit North Vietnam. Singer/songwriter Joan Baez visited Hanoi and parts of North
Vietnam during the Christmas bombing in December 1972. She traveled with a peace delegation
16
to deliver Christmas mail to American POWs. Baez saw the communists as violators of human
rights and criticized their government. After returning to the United States, Baez started a
petition to condemn Hanoi‟s brutal policies and garnered eighty signatures from former anti-war
activists. Fonda not only refused to sign the petition, she sent Baez an eight-page letter
condemning Baez and the eighty who did sign for criticizing Hanoi.79
The troops went into the war knowing that there were large numbers within the United
States‟ population that did not support the war effort. Men were dying, and those that survived
were putting their lives at great risk to fight communism in a country seemingly on the other side
of the world. The POWs that languished for years at the hands of their captors were beaten and
tortured. They lived and suffered in conditions that were incomprehensible to American society,
yet they were accused of being war criminals by a famous American actress, a sex symbol of the
60s and early 70s. To American servicemen with pinups of Jane Fonda in their lockers, the
betrayal was as if Betty Grable had made Nazi propaganda radio broadcasts from Berlin during
World War II.80 This indicated to the prisoners that the American public had lost the political
will to support them. These men were trying to hold on to their sanity, physically survive the
horrendous conditions, retain some personal integrity, and remain loyal to their country. They
did not need to be undermined by Jane Fonda.
Air Force pilot Dick Vaughn was shot down in 1971 and held prisoner until 1973. He
stated the interrogators at the prisoner camp would often say “we cannot beat you militarily;
however, with friends like Jane Fonda, we will defeat you.” He further claimed the North
Vietnamese tried to wear them down; make them believe they were war criminals and puppets of
the Nixon administration.81 These terms and accusations gleaned from Fonda‟s radio
broadcasts. These North Vietnamese thought processes were corroborated by Army Colonel Bui
17
Tin, commander of the tank column that broke through the gates of the South Vietnamese
Presidential Palace in 1975. Tin was later interviewed and explained, “The antiwar movement
was essential to our strategy. Every day our leadership would listen to world news over the radio
to follow the growth of the American antiwar movement. Visits to Hanoi by people like Jane
Fonda gave us confidence that we should hold on in the face of battlefield reversals.”82
One Vietnam veteran equated her actions with the will of political leadership in the
United States. “Yes, there was a movement against the war, students who were afraid of being
drafted. They in no way held sway over any part of the government and our will to win the war.
When „Hanoi Jane‟ made her trip and no repercussions were forthcoming, it gave the anti war
movement a legitimacy not possessed before. She single handedly proved the politicians had no
will, the tide was turning.”83
Joan Maiman was a medical worker for the Red Cross in Vietnam. She said, “I watched
young men who went to their death believing their country hated them because of Jane Fonda‟s
antiwar activities.”84 Not all Vietnam veterans were in favor of the war. Some lost their
affiliation of support after they returned home and others were against the war while they were
still in Vietnam. Yet both groups felt Jane Fonda betrayed them. “The feeling was that she
should have separated the war from the warrior and did not.”85
Colonel “Bud” Day was a ranking officer at the Hanoi Hilton at the time of the Jane
Fonda‟s visit. He summed up his feelings about Fonda‟s radio broadcasts, “It‟s difficult to put
into words how terrible it was to hear that siren song that is so absolutely rotten and wrong. It
was worse than being manipulated and used. She got into it with all her heart. She wanted the
North Vietnamese to win. She caused the deaths of unknown numbers of Americans by buoying
18
up the enemies spirits and keeping them in the fight.”86 Her actions and words were devastating
to the Americans in Vietnam; and she was not being held accountable for her actions.
Investigation of Treason
The United States Constitution‟s definition of treason under Article III, Section 3:
Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering
to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless
on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.87 The
Logan Act was enacted in 1799 with the intent to prohibit United States Citizens without
authority from interfering in relations between the United States and foreign governments.88 An
excerpt of the Sedition Act of 1918, Article III describes sedition: Whoever, when the United
States is at war, shall willfully make or convey false reports or false statements with intent to
interfere with the operation or success of the military or naval forces of the United States, or to
promote the success of its enemies, or shall willfully make or convey false reports, or false
statements, . . . or incite insubordination, disloyalty, mutiny, or refusal of duty, in the military or
naval forces of the United States, or shall willfully obstruct . . . the recruiting or enlistment
service of the United States.89
Newspaper articles questioning Fonda‟s remarks in Hanoi appeared as early as August 4,
1972, less than two weeks after her return to the United States. The Veterans of Foreign Wars
adopted a resolution at the annual VFW convention urging the prosecution of Jane Fonda and
classified her as an “unofficial ambassador for peace and a traitorous meddler in official
Government security”.90 The Justice Department began the scrutiny of her radio broadcasts soon
after the transmissions were aired on Radio Hanoi. Legal authorities were doubtful that Fonda
could be charged with treason since the United States was not officially at war; Congress had not
19
declared war on North Vietnam. Charging Fonda by means of the Sedition Act was a possibility
since it did not require an official declaration of war. Charges from several congressmen that
Fonda‟s tour of North Vietnam, in conjunction with her radio broadcasts were treasonable acts
prompted the Justice Department‟s investigation and the House Internal Security Committee‟s
probe91
Fonda did not provide military intelligence, supplies, weapons, money, or ammunition to
the North Vietnamese government; however, she was guilty of spewing propaganda easily
considered anti-American and outwardly pro- North Vietnamese. Alternatively, as her
supporters claimed, she was practicing her right to freedom of speech.
Fonda reacted to the investigations and possibility of charges saying the government
could study the radio transcripts; she had nothing to hide. Her reply was “Given the things that
America stands for, a war of aggression against the Vietnamese is a betrayal of the American
people. There is the treason.”92
The House Internal Security Committee sent a letter to the Attorney General in mid-
August 1972. The letter stated, “In the event the Justice Department determines the broadcasts
of Jane Fonda from Hanoi during July, 1972, do not constitute treason or sedition, or that her
conduct cannot be reached by existing statute for any other reason, then the department is
requested to furnish a report to the committee with recommendations for legislation which would
be effective to impose criminal sanctions under similar circumstances in the future.” 93 Nine
months later the House Internal Security Committee approved legislation that would outlaw
unauthorized visits by American citizens to nations fighting the United States. The Justice
Department supported the bill, under which the president could restrict trips unless he deemed
them to be in the interest of the U.S.94 In the end, the bill failed on the House floor.
20
The Justice department decided not to move against Fonda with charges of treason or
violations of the Logan Act. As for charges of sedition, the House Internal Security Committee
did not find anything in her radio transmissions to incite military personnel into “doing anything
other than to think”.95 At the time of these decisions, there was widespread conjecture among
critics that Justice Department officials feared making an antiwar sacrificial victim out of Jane
Fonda. However, the ambiguity of the legal of her actions remained unanswered.
Henry Mark Holzer practiced law for 42 years and became a professor emeritus at the
Brooklyn Law School. After his retirement, he took on the challenge of studying “Hanoi Jane”
and through a legal lens determined whether she should have been tried for treason. He did not
seek to answer if she would have been convicted by a jury; his goal was to determine whether
there was sufficient evidence to submit to a jury. Holzer stated there were four requisite
elements of the crime of treason: intent, overt act, two-witness proof, aid and comfort. All four
elements need to be proven beyond any reasonable doubt to constitute treason.96
Holzer believed Fonda exhibited intent because she intended the consequences of her
voluntary acts. It was a distinct possibility that she knew or believed that North Vietnamese
propagandists were working in the interest of North Vietnam. Fonda knowingly participated in
the propaganda campaign aimed at undermining the morale of the embattled POWs and the
American troops in the field. This may have proved treasonous intent to a jury.97
Throughout Fonda‟s visit, her actions were overt and clearly showed intent. The
following are only a portion of the numerous examples:
 While touring the War Crimes Museum, which displayed ordnance and artifacts
allegedly used by American troops in Vietnam, Fonda made pro-Communist and
21
anti-American statements in the company of Communist North Vietnamese
civilians and military officials and members of the international press.
 During her tour of a hospital, again in the company of the North Vietnamese and
international press, she made anti-American and pro-North Vietnamese
statements. In one of her broadcasts, she mentioned the hospital and her belief
that the Americans had purposely targeted the hospital as well as schools.
 At the site of bombed dikes and populated areas, Fonda made anti-American
remarks to her usual entourage of North Vietnamese and members of the press.
The dikes were a source of many of her diatribes, which she repeated many times
throughout her tour.
 Her pro-North Vietnam remarks and anti-American sentiment continued while
visiting a textile factory and villages in the countryside.
 Fonda made the first of the ten live and taped radio broadcasts on 14 July. All of
her transmissions to the POWs and American troops in the area were laden with
anti-American and anti-military statements. She blatantly undermined the morale
of the Americans serving in Vietnam and those help captive.
 Fonda held a press conference in Hanoi and described her activities since arriving
in North Vietnam. She purportedly continued with pro-communist remarks.
 During her meeting with the seven POWs, Fonda harangued them with her
propaganda.
 At a meeting with North Vietnamese Vice Premier Nguyen Duy Trinh, Fonda
continued with her anti-American sentiment and told him his side would surely
win.
22
 In the company of North Vietnamese Communists and international press
members, Fonda posed for photographs in the control seat of a North Vietnamese
anti-aircraft gun, feigning taking sight on an imaginary American aircraft.98
The federal treason statute of the Constitution requires that the overt acts with intent must be
proved by the testimony of two witnesses. Members of the international press were following
the tour throughout the two weeks and were witness to her anti-American and pro-communist
remarks. Countless numbers of POWs and service men in the field heard her radio broadcasts.
Seven POWs listened to her rehearsed speech propagandizing the shameful wrongdoings of the
Americans in Vietnam and extolling the North Vietnamese people. There were hundreds of
witnesses to her actions, not merely the required two.
In providing aid and comfort to the enemy, Fonda‟s actions went beyond sympathy for
the enemy. She seemingly severed her allegiance to the United States, and it appeared that she
crossed the line with her pro-North Vietnam propaganda. She actually promoted the North
Vietnamese cause because her broadcasts and other conduct had a devastating effect on the
morale of the POWs and troops in the field. The North Vietnamese were encouraged to continue
the fight because Jane Fonda was destroying the will of the U. S. servicemen. CIA contractor
Edward Hunter‟s analysis revealed, “What comes from a source on one‟s own side commands
attention, under any circumstance. When the enemy can obtain the assistance of a national of the
country it is fighting, to propagate its material in his or her own country, and also to broadcast it
personally over the enemy‟s radio, going to its capital city to do so, it has achieved a form of war
propaganda for which there is no professional term – except, perhaps, the old-fashioned word,
treason.”99
23
With all of the evidence and expert analysis of Fonda‟s actions in Hanoi, Holzer‟s legal
opinion was that she could have been indicted for treason. Her statements contained lies about
the United States, its leaders, its motives, and actions in Vietnam. Communist propaganda was
underlying every line of her broadcasts. Her remarks undermined the morale and military effort
of our soldiers in the field and our prisoners in jungle camps and North Vietnamese prisons.100
The reasons leading to the decision not to indict her were very convoluted. The decision
not to subpoena her for investigation before the House Internal Security Committee was never
clearly explained. Holzer believed the answer was political in nature, not legal. “What our
government feared was being made to look stupid by the likes of Jane Fonda and the rabble-
rousing counsel whom she doubtless would have employed. The government of the United
States feared losing the case before a jury.”101 Basically, the United States did not want to risk
making an anti-war martyr of Jane Fonda.
Conclusions
The Vietnam War was a difficult and confusing time in the history of the United States.
Many Americans were not in favor of the war and protests abounded on college campuses and at
public gatherings, but Jane Fonda spoke openly against the war and the men sent to fight it. She
saw the North Vietnamese as the victims and the Americans as the aggressors attacking a
peaceful people.
The myths surrounding the occurrences of her fateful trip to North Vietnam were a side
effect to the extremely controversial issue. Vietnam veterans researched the evidence to expose
the hoaxes and strove to keep the available information factual.
Jane Fonda‟s reasons for her actions and statements hold some merit. As a peace activist,
she did want the killing to stop and the war to end. Perhaps she really did regret the photograph
24
of her singing and laughing with the North Vietnamese as she sat perched on a gun site, wearing
a North Vietnamese helmet; however, the telling photograph is etched into the minds of
thousands of Vietnam veterans. The adage “a picture is worth a thousand words” holds true in
this situation. She did not regret her radio broadcasts filled with anti-American propaganda. Her
accusatory words incited anger and sadness in the hearts of the American troops. An American
motion picture icon had turned against them. Her radio broadcasts were inflammatory and
disheartening to the American troops that were forced to listen to Hanoi radio. Her actions were
extremely detrimental to the morale of the troops, in particular the prisoners-of-war.
“Jane Fonda and Vietnam” has been a topic of interest for nearly forty years. Thousands
of Vietnam veterans are still extremely emotional about what happened in 1972 with Jane
Fonda‟s visit. Her perceived betrayal of them is a deep-seated pain. The veterans are aging, but
this story will not die with them. The story has been passed down to subsequent generations and
continues to intrigue the curious. The name Jane Fonda cannot be mentioned without the
connection to Vietnam and the demoralization of Americans serving in Vietnam.
Her stated intentions for the radio broadcasts were to inform the pilots of what they were
doing; to provide the perspective from the ground; to tell them about the carnage and devastation
left behind after the bombing and strafing. However, her broadcasts went far beyond relating the
conditions in North Vietnam; she questioned their morality, their very souls. She accused them
of murder, said their government was lying to them, that they were nothing but pawns, and that
the North Vietnamese would win. Jane Fonda‟s actions went beyond protesting the war; she
gave every indication of being pro-Hanoi. Whether she was a willing participant or an
unknowing pawn of the North Vietnamese government was never truly determined.
Nonetheless, the propaganda spread as the communists had hoped.
25
The United States government chose not to prosecute Jane Fonda for her actions in
Hanoi. Because of this, to Vietnam veterans, she was never held accountable for the devastating
damage she caused them.
