Asked if the war can be won as it is now being fought. he replied. "'Yes, we're on 1h1c right track now." Regarding reports that some units had outmoded weapons, he said, "we have good weapons to fight the war." He objected to calling the Vicetnamese situation a "conflict." He said it is war. He said he hopes, however. that it will not develop into a war of atomic weapons.

Gencral Khanh arrived unan-: nounced Saturday night at Sherman Army Airfield. A Ft. Leavenworth spokesman said that no advance word of the visit was released for security reasons. A newsman queried F1. Leavenworth Sunday.

and post au-: thorities confirmed that General Khanh was present. This morning he addressed students of the Command and General Staff College. The Times WAS refused per- mission to cover the morning presentation, but the post information office indicated that the ground rules making Khanh's comments privileged were the speaker's, not Ft. Leavenworth's. Khanh is now South Vietl Nam's observer at the United Nations.

He was scheduled to leave for the Air Force Academy at Colorado Springs, after his visit here. Two U. S. officers are accompanying him. One was formerly an adviser to Khanh's headquarters.
