Wim salt. tusk indicated to newsmen at the airport that the United Slates vould accept something short of formal cease-fire agreement rom Moscow before going to an international conference.

Asked if a "de facto" cease- ire would be sufficient, he said, 'What is important is the cessa- ion of hostilities if the fight- ng has slopped and it is clear he fighting has stopped, then we isve an opportunity for negotiations and discussions." Friday's reports reaching Wash- ngton told of a continued lull in he fighting in Laos, and also of a continued Soviet airlift of guns the rebels. U.S. officials were thinking ierms of an end to U.S. weapons shipments to Laos, withdrawal of American military aides and inclusion of some Communists in a broadened Laos government in at possible eventual" concessions an over-all settlement aimed achieving a neutral, independent Laos. However, any such move woulc be contingent on concessions from the Communists and could not be foreseen at this early stage be fore negotiations have started, of ficials noted.

The Reds presum ably would have to stop theii shipment of arms, pull out their non-Laotian technicians and offe other guarantees. But first of all, U.S. authorities emphasized, there must be an effective cease-fire. Rosary Sunday ForW. M.
