By KAY LUND Federal Judge Martin Pence of U.S. District Court today handed down a historic decision, specifying the boundaries of the State of Hawaii as the three-mile limit around each Island.

An official investigation was ordered by the headquarters of the U.S. Military Assistance Command after the Viet officer reported that the helicopters accidentally killed 25 and wounded 27 Vietnamese government soldiers.

Authoritative U.S. military sources said the report was highly exaggerated. The Viet officer claimed that helicopters firing American rockets and machine guns were responsible for the greater part of the casualties his unit suffered in an engagement 12 miles west of the capital. An American field-grade officer conducted the on-the-spot investigation yesterday reported to the headquarters staff that the helicopters probably killed three.
