Indo-Chinese Arm For Red Rebellion
Hanoi, Indo-China — (U.P.)- Boy scouts and peasants joined French Union troops today in preparing the royal Lao tiapian capital of Luang Prabang for an expected offensive by pro-Commist Vietnam rebels.
Scouts directed heavy traffic from the airfield, where a steady stream of commanded airplanes brought in soldiers. The peasants used primitive tools to widen the runways.
Other airlifts took men and guns to the French bastion on the Plaines Des Jarres, 90 miles southeast of Luang Prabang, and to Vietiane, administrative capital 70 miles below the plains.
French authorities praised the calmness of the civilian population at Luang Prabang.
A military headquarters spokesman here said more than 86 rebels were killed yesterday in repulsed attacks against posts in northern Vietnam, one of the three associated states which make up Indo-China.
