Last fall, in a surprising reversal of form, Laotian troops backed by heavy American air support swept Communist forces off the strategically located Plain of Jars in north-central Laos. It was the first time in five years that the government had controlled the area. Last week the pro-Communist Pathet Lao and their North Vietnamese allies launched a long-awaited attempt to regain the plain...
...question and sometimes threaten servicemen attempting to visit off-post coffee houses. Since many of the dissenters are otherwise model soldiers, the armed forces also use administrative discharge procedures to get rid of them. Last week the Army discharged Last Harass Editor Dennis Davis, 26, a member of the pro-Communist Progressive Labor Party, as "undesirable" 16 days before the end of his two-year hitch...

The Communists picked up 800,000 votes, a 1.6% increase, giving them eleven extra seats in the Chamber. Thus the party maintained its postwar record of steady gains-and moved closer to its goal of a leftist majority in Italian politics. Other Nenni Socialists went over to their former ally, the pro-Communist Proletarian Socialists (P.S.I.U.P.). This far-left party gained 4.5% of the votes and 23 seats...
