*Vietnam:
South Vietnam: Heavy ground fighting has occurred
in several areas of the country in the past few days.
South Vietnamese infantrymen and rangers claim to
have killed 456 Viet Cong guerrillas in the Mekong Delta
province of Chuong Thien in a battle that began on
8 December and continued sporadically over the weekend.
Seventy-three South Vietnamese died in the fighting and
136 were wounded. Sharp fighting was also reported near
the Demilitarized Zone and in Quang Nam, Binh Dinh, and
Binh Long provinces.
The fighting in the delta, the second major action in
this region in a week, involved five South Vietnamese
battalions and elements of three Viet Cong battalions.
A concentration of enemy troops of this size is a rare
occurrence south of Saigon, where Viet Cong troops
now usually operate in company-size formation, launch-
ing only occasional battalion-size attacks.
Action elsewhere in the country was highlighted by
an unsuccessful enemy attack on a US 1st Division posi-
tion near An Loc in Binh Long Province on 10 December
which cost the Communists 124 dead. In the coastal
plains south of Da Nang, weekend clashes resulted in
over 100 enemy killed. US casualties in both areas were
light. (Map)

NOTES
3.5(c)
Denmark: Prime Minister Krag's minority So-
cial Democratic government is threatened by a rift
within the left-wing Socialist People's Party upon
which it dependsfor support. The trouble, brewing
for some time, flared into the open in connection
with Krag's move to freeze an anticipated wage hike.
The prime minister also faces problems with the
right wing in his own party which is restive over
Krag's cooperation with the Socialist left. The right
wing is reported to believe that Krag's days are
numbered, and that new elections will be called, re-
sulting in further Social Democratic losses and the
discrediting of Krag.
