Describing the Vietnamese situation as "a bit of a vicious circle,"' Wilson said Johnson's offer '"'was the beginning of breaking that circle." In his address to the Eco- nomic Club, the prime minister reassured his audience of Brit- ain's "unalterable determina- jtion to maintain the value of function, he returned and picked up the radio.

There are hidden . reserves that have 'not yet been thrown into the battle.' cae Wilson estimated that Brit- jain's overseas assets total something dike £11,000,000,090 ($33,000,000,000). The vast bulk is privately owned--£4,000,000,- 000 are portfolio securities and £5,000,000,000 are direct invest- ments. In addition, the govern- ment itself has a portfolio of foreign securities worth about £1,250,000,000 which "we re- gard as our second line of re- serve, and are easily mobiliz- able." | "We have no wish to use these assets unnecessarily.
