437 Churches Bombed by U.S., Hanoi Charges TOKYO (AP) North Vietnamese Roman Catholics have issued a statement charging that U.S. bombings have demolished or damaged 437 churches in North Vietnam since the air raids began in 1964, the Vietnam News Agency reported Sunday. Hanoi's official news agency said four clergymen including one vicar-general were killed. two others were wounded and "many monks and nuns also perished." The statement was issued by the National Liaison Committee of the Vietnamese patriotic and peace-loving Catholics, the agency added. It said the statement called on Catholics and religious organizations in the world to "severely condemn these heinous crimes of U.S.
imperialists." It claimed that on May 17, U.S. planes bombed the Xa Doai diocese in Nghe An province, killing three Catholics, including a nun, and wounding 19 others, including Vicar Nguyen Dinh Nhien and 14 nuns. It said the cathedral was wrecked and other buildings connected with it were burned. Nghe An is partially below the 19th Parallel, north of which U.S. planes no longer fly by order of President Johnson.
U.S. officials in Saigon say U.S. planes bomb only military targets in the southern panhandle of North Vietnam to keep down the flow of men and supplies to the South. The North Vietnamese Catholics organization was formed by the Hanoi government, rather than by clergy, after millions of Catholics fled to the South in the year Ho Chi Minh took over. group has no official standing, and maintains no relations, with the rest of Roman Catholicism or the Vatican.

U.S. Plans New Moves In Talk Jam (Continued From Page 1) and is aware of their almost limitless capacity for patience. From the Communist viewpoint, these talks are still only in their first stage, a stage which itself can last a long time.
This is the phase of laying down maximum demands, turning aside any, thought of compromise and showering their antagonist with invective. It is not dialogue at this stage, but process of talking over the head of the other side, directly to world opinion, with the aim of bringing pressure to bear. The second and final stage, if it ever arrives, will be the one in which the Communist side agrees to businesslike dialogue which permits actual bargaining. As the talks go into their third week, the Americans have no doubt that the North Vietnamese side will repeat once again its basic demand: that the United States unconditionally must end all acts of war against the North before any other issue can be discussed. The Americans, as usual, will ask what North Vietnam will do in return by way of scaling down the war.
Nobody expects a quick break in this process, but neither side wants to take the responsibility for a complete collapse of the talks. There is one faint glimmer of light perceptible thus far. This comes from the remark of a North Vietnamese delegation spokesman that there might be several ways for the Americans to go about stopping the bombing and acts of war against the North. He declined to say what these ways might be. However, there is some thought among diplomats here that the Americans might be persuaded to phase out the bombing gradually, by limiting it step by step to a smaller area of North Vietnam until it is finally halted at the 17th Parallel -the demilitarized zone.
These sources say that if Hanoi should accept such a formula, it would be possible to move into another phase of the talks, even though the fighting and bloodletting continued in South Vietnam. Contributing to the atmosphere of pessimism with regard to any rapid progress here are the reports from Vietnam itself, which suggest that both sides are trying to achieve a victory in the field of sufficient importance to amount to a military advantage at the netogiating table. That, too, can take a long time. But nobody here the talks even to be suspended for any great length of time. It may be that the American delegation here eventually will have to follow the example of the North Vietnamese and settle into some permanent headquarters, and perhaps allow for changes in the makeup of the delegation from time to time.

Swiss Offer Sanctuary To Defectors BASEL, Switzerland (AP) Neutral Switzerland has joined the ranks of European countries giving sanctuary to U.S. Army defectors who protest American warfare in Vietnam, a Swiss newspaper said. The mass-circulation publication Blick reported an American infantry private, James Franks, reached here via France with his girlfriend and the mascot dog of his battalion.
U.S. Army headquarters in West Germany listed a Pfc. James R. Franks, 21, of Asheville, N.C., as absent without leave from his unit since Feb. 27.
The personnel department manager of a Basel hotel confirmed to inquirers that an American named Franks was employed there as a waiter with a temporary residence and work permit but reported sick Saturday. The newspaper quoted Franks as saying he left his unit Feb. 27, the day he received orders to report for transfer to Vietnam. The College of William and Mary was closed for seven years during the Reconstruction Period after the Civil War. Data From U.S.
