SECTION A-PAGE FIVE ALEXANDRIA DAILY TOWN TALK, ALEXANDRIA-PINEVILLE, THURSDAY, JUNE 29, 1972 Hanoi Is Expected to Propose Resumption of Talks Soon By Stew ai Henslev about a cease-fire and substan nam has repeatedly shown that it has a higher "threshhold of pain," both militarily and economically, than Washington had calculated. Nixon, in his May 8 proposal, offered to halt all military operations in Southeast Asia and withdraw all remaining U. S. forces from Vietnam within four months after establishment of a new internationally supervised cease-fire and release of all American prisoners of war. He agreed to let the Vietnamese themselves negotiate a political settlement.

Ants have two stomachs, one for digesting food and one for storing it. the way the wind is blowing in that quarter. The joker in the deck, however, is that the guidleines of western logic do not necessarily have anything to do with the course Hanoi takes.

President Nixon hopes, of course, that such a "prospect" will emerge from the strategy and policy review under way in Hanoi in recent days.

By all standards of western logic, U. S. officials say, Hanoi should be ready to take advantage of the relatively soft peace proposals Nixon made May 8, wnen ne disclosed that the United States was mining Haiphong and other North Vietnam-e ports, and intensifying bombing. The offensive North Vietnam launched in the South at Easter has apparently stalled, far short its objectives. And Hanoi, by own admission, is suffering "mightily from the stepped-up air attacks on the "North and is beginning to feel the pinch of reduced supplies from Russia due to the mining Chess Match Is Big League By Ann Mencken NEW YORK (AP) Promo tional aspects of the Spassky world championship chess match are becoming as important as they are in any big league sport.
