AP Reporter
Visits Front
In Laos War
Editor's Note — The following
Saturday dispatch Is from an AP
correspondent who visited the
front in strife-torn Laos
By RENE-GEORGES INAGAKI
PHON HONG Laos (AP) —Lao-
tian government forces are dug in
on a hill near this village 50 miles
short of the rebel stronghold of
Vang Vieng which the government
claimed it captured Jan 5 The
position is on the road to Luang
Prabang the royal capital
"Stop here monsieur" said the
Laotian lieutenant who rode with
us up the bumpy dirt road to the
ridge "This is our foremost front
line"
It was absolutely still except for
the twittering of birds
In thick brush closing in on both
sides of the road one infantry
company was dug in guarding a
pass The sun was high and the
soldiers rested under leafy
shelters beside foxholes or sat
around on the ground playing
cards Their mortars and weapons
were close at hand
"We don't have orders to ad-
Vance" one officer said smiling
The enemy was about 10 miles
beyond unseen and generally un-
heard but holding the Nam Lik
Bridge the only crossing vehicles
can use to reach yang Vieng from
the south
Government artillerymen have
been firing three howitzers across
the hill range at times causing
undetermined damage to leftist t
positions in the jungle on the other s
side A rebel mortar detachment i
replied early this morning with t
fairly accurate fire that knocked
out one government artillery r
piece but caused no casualties
The hillside guard is the spear- t
head of Gen PhJumi Nosavan's
forces who set out three weeks
ago after the capture of Vientiane t
in pursuit of leftist paratroop
Capt Kong Le and his men t
A rear guard said by Laotian r
officers to number two companies c
of Pathet Lao with some North b
Vientnamese soldiers and noncom-
missioned officers of Kong Le's
battalion plus a battery of artil-
lery has been blocking the ad-
vance for 10 days
In the headquarters village of
Phon Hong 10 miles behind the
front a slender friendly officer
in charge said he had not lost
a single man so far
"We don't have the means to
advance" the officer said in a
talk over a glass of beer "We
have one battalion here and if we
attacked we would suffer heavy
casualties We are waiting for re-
inforcements" t4
