...campaign of sabotage and terrorism continues. For the last tabulated one-week period, in fact, Viet Cong incidents have soared to a new high of 1,038. They range from propaganda marches in provincial capitals, protesting U.S. air strikes, to last week's mining of the Danish freighter S.S. Kina, en route via canal from the sea to Saigon.
