The South Vietnamese Defense Ministry said the operation was under way at least 10 miles inside Cambodia, west of the Bu Prang and Due Lap Special Forces camps which North Vietnamese troops laid siege to last year.

The area is opposite Vietnam's southern Central Highlands and about 125 miles northeast of Saigon. It was the 13th allied front opened in Cambodia. The South Vietnamese infantrymen went in after massive raids by the U.S. Air Force's big B52 bombers. U.S.

helicopters began landing several thousand South Vietnamese infantrymen from the 23rd Division and their American advisers in the, thickly jun-gled region at dawn. A U.S. spokesman said probably less than 100 advisers were taking part. "There are no U.S. ground forces involved in the operation," the U.S.

Command said, adding that U.S. support of the operation included "helicopter and logistics support, tactical air, artillery and advisers." The drive was preceded by nearly 100 B52 raids along the border in the past four days to soften up the suspected North Vietnamese bunkers and gun positions. Field reports said the South Vietnamese had made no contact by afternoon and were consolidating their positions and preparing for a night bivouac. The new operation is an extension of the sweep which the South Vietnamese 22nd Infantry Division is making in the Se San area to the north of today's landing. Between 25,000 and 30,000 South Vietnamese troops and more than 10,000 Americans now are operating inside Cambodia along a 600-mile stretch of border.

At the southern end of the frontier, a task force of more than 10,000 South Vietnamese troops with armored cars, gunboats and U.S. warplari'S in support, pushed deeper into southern Cambodia today after smashing a North Vietnamese base camp and sampan fleet, South Vietnamese military headquarters announced.

McCormack, called a news conference for 3 p.m. EDT today to announce, associates said, that he will not seek reelection. The 78-year-old Speaker reportedly will finish his present term in the house but will not run for reelection in November. He is expected to announce his support of Rep.

Carl Albert of Oklahoma, to succeed him as speaker. Albert was 62 years old on May 10. McCormack met with his Massachusetts colleagues early this afternoon. They said he told them he would not seek reelection. "I will make a statement at the proper time," McCormack said with reference to "a lot of rumors running around." The most prevalent rumor was that McCormack would not resign immediately but would not seek reelection for the new Congress convening next January.

He became speaker in January 1962, succeeding Sam Ray- McCormack's retirement has been called for publicly by some columnists and some House members who claim a younger man should hold the job and that McCormack is out of tune with current times. He has declined in the past to be swayed by suggestions that he quit. But his wife of 50 years, with whom he lives here, is critically ill and McCormack reportedly wants to give his full time to her needs. They have been inseparable since their marriage in June, 1920. burn of Texas who died in November 1961.

Next week McCormack will have served as speaker consecutively longer than any other man. Rayburn served as speaker more years but his tenure was broken twice when Republicans organized the House. In Boston, radio and television station WHDH said McCormack was reluctant to retire but had decided to do so because of his wife's health. It said said he would retire at the end of the year.
