LXXXVII, NO. 134 CARLISLE, FRIDAY, MAY 17, 1968 SEVEN CENTS Hanoi Makes A Firm Offer For Ful Peace Talks Lung Transplant (Reported Doing Satisfactorily 15-Year Old Boy May Offer Hope In Lung Cancer EDINBURGH, Scotland (UPI) -A medical bulletin today said 15-year-old Alex Smith was recovering satisfactorily from rare lung transplant operation that offers hope for lung cancer victims.

The boy underwent the surgery Thursday at the Edinburgh Royal Infirmary after swallowing a quantity of weed, killer. He received the lung of an 18-year-old girl not identified by doctors. She died two hours before the transplant. The Smith boy is the youngest son in a Scottish family of nine. The doctors involved declined to hold a news conference but daily bulletins on Smith's progress were, promised.

There has been criticism in the British press and medical profession of publicity received by surgeons who performed previous transplants of hearts and kidneys. The operation was said to be the fourth attempted lung transplant in the world, The three other patients, two in the United States and one in Japan died shortly after the operations. If it succeeds the operation could become an acceptable last resort treatment for lung cancer, often fatal because of the difficulty of diagnosing it before extensive lung damage already been done, medical observers said. Prof. K.W.

Donald of Edinburgh University said Smith's operation "involved a pretty new procedure" but he did not elaborate. Officials at the Royal Infirmary where the surgery was performed released little information but relatives of the youth said he was flown to Edinburgh from Stornaway, on the Isle of Lewis in the outer Hebrides off northern Scotland where he attended school. His uncle, Arthur MacIver, said the boy was taken to the infirmary in Stornoway after swallowing some weed killer. Hospital sources said about a dozen persons participated in the operation under the leadership of surgeons Andrew Logan and Michael Woodruff. Woodruff, 57, is a pioneer in kidney transplant surgery and has performed a number of such operations since 1960.

The sources said the lung graft was considered less difficult than a heart transplant but they said both operations presented a danger from tissue rejection--the body's natural tendency to destroy matzrial that is foreign to it. They said they expected the critical phase of the youth's recovery would pass in about one week.

PARIS (UPI) Hanoi today offered to open talks on a Vietnam political settlement if the United States stops all bombing and other acts of war against North Vietnam. Contained In Statement Nguyen Van Sao, a spokesman for the North Vietnam delegation to Paris talks with the United States, made the offer in a statement to United Press International. "If the United States halts the bombing and other acts of war against the North unconditionally, we will be ready to discuss a political settlement for Vietnam," he said." This was the first time the Communists have come so close to saying they are ready for full dress Vietnam peace talks in exchange for an unconditional bombing halt.

In earlier statements, they have said merely they would be willing to discuss "other matters of interest to both sides." off the air supplies for what has long been a major Communist infiltration route toward Hue.

Reject U.S. Plan But Sao at the same time rejected a U.S. suggestion in the talks here that North Vietnam can get the bombing halt in exchange for restoring a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) between North and South Vietnam.

Sao rejected a U.S. hint that a troop pullback by both sides from the DMZ would be considered by Washington as a sufficient gesture to warrant an end to U.S. bombing of North Vietnam, President Jolson March 31. ordered a limited halt to the bombing in order to get. Hanoi to the conference table here.

The aim of the current talks is to scale down the fighting enough to allow a full dress peace conference on the Vietnam war. W. Averell Harriman, the U.S. chief negotiator here, came very close in Thursday television review to telling the Communists that North Vietnam can get its desired halt in bombing if it agrees to restoring the DMZ. Asks Some Restraint PARIS (UPI) -Forty-thousand Communist-led workers today struck and seized the huge state-owned Renault automobile factory in the Paris suburbs.

But they rejected efforts by rebellious Paris students to link their own "culture revolution" with that of the workers. The students had wanted to move their revolt of the universities into a joint effort with workers in the factories and they appeared stunned by the unions' cautious attitude. The students began whether to cancel their mammoth "solidarity march" called for later today. The Communist-led General Labor Confederation appeared fearful that student entry into the sprawling plant would result in police retaliation. The government called up thousands of police today and 10.000 gendarme reservists French equivalent of the National Guard.

So far striking workers have occupied the Renault plant, SudAviation Aircraft plants and half a dozen other factories throughout the country, but the strikes have been peaceful. The CGT decision to rebuff the students emphasized the Communist Party's careful handling of the great student and labor crisis shaking France. It was the first break of solidarity between students and workers since student protest rallies against obsolete teaching methods served as the fuse for a massive explosion of pentup anti-government discontent. The Renault plant straddling the Seine River in suburban Billancourt is considered the barometer for labor peace. A strike at the nationalized works usually spreads rapidly into other industrial sectors.

Harriman said, "I would not rule out the DMZ" as a possible turning point in moving the current talks from a propaganda forum toward real negotiation. Harriman went on to link the DMZ proposal to Johnson's demand that Hanoi show some example of "restraint" in return for any total halt in U.S. bombing and shelling of North Vietnam. But Sao said the United States must itself pull out of the DMZ without any similar action by North Vietnam. Hanoi has never admitted it has troops inside the six-mile-wide DMZ or in South Vietnam despite years of battling.

Sao said "the United States has sabotaged the DMZ and must restore it. There can be no reciprocity about that." Both Harriman and Hanoi's chief delegate, Xuan Thuy, today prepared for their scheduled meeting Saturday, the third since the Paris talks opened. in Embassy office, Harriman, worked with aides preparing to renew pressure on Hanoi for some positive answer to various American proposals for scaling down the war. According to Communist sources, Thuy plans to renew his demand for an unconditional halt to U.S. bombing and other acts of war against his homeland.

HOMINY FALLS, W. Va. -After 10 days of praying for a miracle, six coal miners' only wish today was to go home. Doctors said that, too, might be granted soon. The miners, part of a group of 25 trapped May 6 when a wall of water broke through from an abandoned pit into their tunnel, were rescued Thursday.

They had been given up for dead a week ago when 15 others crawled out of the pit alive. Four others drowned in the first rush of water. Their bodies were recovered. Despite 10 days of living on little but bracklish mine water, the six were pronounced in fairly good physical condition. "I could have held out another five days or a week, maybe," said John Moore, 46, one of survivors.

Dr. John Echols, chief of the, staff at Sacred Heart Hospital "We did everything First we built the barricade and decided how we would ration the sandwiches." The group had salvaged two lunch buckets with six sandwiches which they made last the first three days. For the next seven, they ate nothing. Joseph Fitzwater said, "Our worst moment was when they quit drilling a hole to use last Thursday night (May 9). We never heard anything more for two or three days after that, We thought they had stopped rescue operations, but all of us remained level headed." was a miracle of Fitzwater said.

"I was a sinner when I went into that mine, but I came out a All six men held reunions with their families Thursday night at Sacred Heart Hospital. "They are getting along fine," Sister Monica, the hospital administrator, said. "They're in very good spirits." All of them were up and about and all of them had eaten three meals although Echols kept several on light diets because of intestinal problems. "We expected to have some of these type of problems because of the water," Echols said. He permitted them to eat "whatever they could hold down." For some, that included chicken, asparagus, mashed potatoes, ice cream, juice and milk.

Echols said, "I wouldn't think of sending them back to work in less than a week." He said they would have to have a period of convalescence at home, then an examination by their family physicians before going back into the pits of the Gauley Coal Coke Co.
