Viet Nam For Troops Be Prepared To Send Men, Viet Cong Savs ASSOCIATED PRESS The political front of the Viet Cong guerrillas has asked North Viet Nam for active assistance against the Americans in the South, and to prepare to send men into battle, Hanoi radio said Saturday.

Hanoi, which has said it would send volunteers if asked, quoted a Viet Cong (VC) statement as saying the guerrillas want help increase our forces and step up the resistance of the war 10 limes more The significance of the statement, and its timing, immediately aroused speculation. U.S. officials have reported the Viet Cong as taking heavy losses recently in Viet Nam, raising the possibility the movement is feeling a manpower pinch. Possibility Raised It also seemed possible that the statement is part of a preparation for Hanoi itself to take new action or for bargaining should there be some sort of new approach to the conference table. Up to now, Communist North Viet Nam has disclaimed direct involvement in the war.

Washington officials said they were studying a text of the broadcast with some interest, although they expressed belief that much of what it said had been issued by Communist propagandists before in one form or another. These U.S.

Interesting Aspect The Washington officials looked on the timing of the statement as perhaps its most interesting aspect.
