The Assembly is not in session and will have a dispute over financing on its hands when it meets, he noted. As for possible Security Council action, Rusk pointed out that its ability to move would depend on whether the Soviet Union exercised its veto power.

Rusk repeated.

Ball to the effect that the U.S. might suspend air raids on North Viet Nam if there were any evidence that Hanoi would take some equivalent step toward scaling down the war. But, he added, "we are interested in what else would happen if we stopped bombing." He asked, rhetorically, whether the North Vietnamese would withdraw their 325th division from South Viet Nam.

"He does not fall within the department's established criteria," was the explanation for turning down Fischer's request that his passport be indorsed for travel to Cuba. THE YOUNG grandmaster from Brooklyn made the request June 29 through his attorney, Andrew P. Davis. The lawyer explained that Fischer had been invited to play in the Capablanca Memorial Tournament in Havana on Aug.

In the ground war, U.S. Marines and Vietnamese troops teamed up for an attack that overran the Communist-dominated village of Chan Son, 10 miles south of the Da Nang air base.

They killed 25 persons among them from three to five noncombatants who had failed to heed a loudspeaker warning to leave and captured 80 men suspected of serving as guerrillas. Viet Cong ground fire downed three U.S. Army helicopters involved in the operation, but a spokesman said there were no casualties among the American or Vietnamese troops. Together the Marines and the Vietnamese made up about a regiment perhaps 1,500 men. Farther south, government forces were on the move in two sectors.

A spokesman said they killed 20 Viet Cong in Quang Ngai Province, 330 miles northeast of Saigon, and 17 in Binh Thuan Province, 95 miles northeast of that city.
