By CARMAN CUMMING Canadian Press Staff Writer Viet Nam Crisis Flares Congo Fighting Spreads Find 3 Bodies in South Flag Negotiations Fail Through a tense week, the world watched as the Vietna- mese crisis pushed danger- ously close to the brink of war, then eased back percep- tibly. : The focus of attention was the Gulf of Tonkin, a cres- cent - shaped body of water flanked by North Viet Nam and Communist China and pa- trolled by units of the U.S, 7th Fleet. The trouble began Sunday night in a clash between three patrol - torpedo boats from North Viet Nam and the American destroyer Maddox. The U.S. charged that the PT- boats had attacked in interna- tional waters some 30 miles offshore. Washington sent off a pro- test note, But officials said they hoped the incident was an isolated one and would not lead to a broadening of the |Francis Xavier University, An-| building about 10 times a day. | find they can make themselves nal Affairs Minister Martin whether he was convinced the U.S. was "'telling the truth' about the Gulf of Tonkin inci- dents, "Of course I am,' replied Martin, "The evidence is such that I suggest the honorable member should take a similar view," STILL THE FLAG The Commons, meanwhile, prepared to resume the flag debate early riext week follow- ing the failture of negotiations to put a time limit on the debate. After a meeting of party leaders Wednesday, Pearson said the Progressive Conserv- atives had refused to accept a limitation. And he added that while the government did not want a fall election on the issue, it was always possible for the opposition to force one. A long debate, kept alive by the Conservatives, was ex- pected. Some. Conservatives predicted that there never would be a vote on the gov- ernment_resolition to adopt a maple leaf flag.

MOSCOW girls who work in the Krasni Vostok textile factory at Zar- aisk, life was drab and often rowdy. Now things are reported changing. Zaraisk is a small town néar Moscow. Its only big enterprise is the textile factory, worked largely by girls brought up in orphanages. Not long ago a group of these girls wrote to the Communist party newspaper Pravda com- plaining about conditions In the dormitories where they are housed. They particularly cited House No. 21, where "'hooligans| and rogues'"' were in charge. Pravda, doing its own invest- igating, found that 'nobody really cares for the dormitories and no éducational activity is going on there." The doors at No. 21 were wide open, and the staircase walls defaced by signatures. Every door showed traces of attempts to. break it open. The dormitory|accepted by a vote of 37 to 0, was "besiegéd by idlers and passers-by," Pravda reported. "The rules here are: come in anybody ard at any time. . . there is no caretaker or watch- man."
