So far, North Vietnamese statements hinting at possible readiness to open peace talks have offered no reciprocity for a halt in U.S. bombing. This lack of any offer of recip rocal action is one factor thai makes some U.S. officials du bious about the sincerity of the North Vietnamese stance.

American military authorities recall public statements by North Vietnamese leaders indi eating that, according to then doctrine, fighting should contin ue even while negotiations are in progress. Hanoi's selection of Indonesia as' a possible mediator in the current Vietnam peace sound ings may indicate North Viet nam is acting without Commu nist Chinese approval or even in defiance of Indonesia is one of Peking'; major targets propaganda attacks. Communist Chin broke relations with Jakarta after the smashing of' Indone ia's pro-Peking Communis by the ruling regime. In 1965 the Indonesian Communists ried to take over the govern ment and the number persons massacred in the ailure has been estimated up to lalf million. For Hanoi to approach ndonesia, of all nations appears, therefore one of the most mystifying developments the North Vietaames puzzling peace offensive of the ast few days.

Hanoi made the approach "to 'oreign Minister Adam Malik the No. 1 anti-Peking 'ndonesian leader. Neither Jakarta nor Hano tias explained why Indonesia vas approached. China experts say there can )e no chance of Peking giving Hanoi a formal go-ahead fo uch a move. Moreover, the experts say, Hanoi has no asked Peking's approval.

All of which leads to th possibility that Hanoi is acting vithout Communist China Secretary Mlines Goals At Convention (he Pennsylvania Association, and Osteopathic Edwin Zechman, Hummelstown, for the ennsylvania Pharmaceutical Association.

Hanoi's posture in relation Peking and Moscow has beer unclear for some time. Credible have said that Norti Vietnam's ruling regime wa split inlo' three Peking, pro-Moscow and middle of-the-road. Lately Hanoi appeared lean ng ideologically toward Mos cow, especially since Commu nist China's cultural revolutio upset many of the pro-Pekin Vorth Vietnamese. Thus, Nort Vietnam sent a delegation Moscow's 50th Bolshevik revolu tion anniversary celebrations which Peking brushed off.
