McNamara has gone to South Vietnam nine times and after each visit a statement was issued on the war as it appeared then and an official estimate of the future course of events. A vast difference stands between the first and ninth state ments.

It indicates three things: 1. The ability of the Vietnam esedemonstrated repeatedly in 2,000 years to confound their enemies. In wars of independence, they defeated the Chinese in the distant past and the French in the 1950s. After 1962, Vietnamese Communists escalated the war more rapidly and more effectively than American officials apparently anticipated. 2.

Misplaced optimism In Washington. In 1963. the White -House Is sued a statement saying the "major part" of the U.S. military effort could be completed "by the end of law. 3.

The Droblem of how much to report about the war and how frankly to report it. Military men usually claim they must fog over the facts, or not state them at all, so as not to reveal information of value to the enemv. and to avoid damag ine the morale of troops in the field and civilians at home. For example, in 1963 the New York Times quoted an official as say- ine. I admit tne press was sometimes lied to in Saigon in the past, but that does not mean that lying has continued and that the official word can never be taken at face value.

In anv event, here are the same statements issued follow- ine McNamara's trips and the events that followed: 1962 After a visit of two weeks, the secretary said the United States had "no plan for introducing combat forces into South Vietnam." He said he was "tremendously encouraged" by developments there. American forces then amounted to 8,000 men. President John F. Kennedy defined their role as "training and transportation, and we are assisting in every way we properly can the people of South Vietnam." He touched on the problem of official disclosures in savine. "This is an area where there is a good deal of danger and it's a matter of In formation.

In October, six months later, American troop strength rose to 10,000. More significantly, they no longer were engaged solely in "training and transportation." Correspondents noted that the soldiers were firing first and not merely returning enemy fire. 1963 On Oct, 2, after a survey in Vietnam, McNamara and Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor report ed to Kennedy.

The White House then issued a statement which said: VThevI reported their judg ment that the major part of the U.S. militarv task can be com pleted by the end of 1965, al-thouch there mav be a contin uing requirement for a limited number of U.S. training person nel. "They reported that by the end of this year the U.S. program for training should have progressed to a point wnere U.S.

militarv personnel as signed to Vietnam can be withdrawn." American military forces then were reported to total 14,000, an increase of 4,000 in a year. On November 2, Neo Dinh Diem, president of South Vietnam, was assassinated. In a news conference Nov. 14, a reporter asked Kennedy if the "chaneed situation" in South Vietnam would check the plan to withdraw the 1.000 men. The President replied.

"No. We're uoine to brine back several hundred before the end of the year." The next day, the U.S. Command in Saigon announced the repatriation would begin on An Award Ve Are in Gooding, former resident of Hagerman who died Friday at the Magic valley Manor Wendell of a long illness, will be conducted at 10 a.m. Tuesday in the Hagerman Cemetery by Elder Lyie Gilmore.
