WHITE SAIGON (AP)--The Viet Cong returned to the attack today after a brief lull in heavy ground fighting during Defence Secretary McNamara's latest inspection of the South Viet- namese war zone. Another major buildup of U.S. and South Vietnamese forces seemed certain in the wake of McNamara's visit. He left for Guam Monday night with: a warning that North Viet Nam had clearly decided to escalate the conflict. He forecast a long war. Within hours of McNamara's departure, the 85,000-ton nu- clear-powered aircraft carrier Enterprise left the Philippines to join units of the U.S. 7th Fleet operating in Viet. Nam.. The world's largest carrier was es- corted on her first mission by the guided missile frigate Bain- bridge, also nuclear-powered. In South Viet Nam's Central Highlands, a guerrilla battalion apparently overwhelmed 200 government, militiamen 15 miles ' east of An Khe, headquarters of the U.S. Ist Air Cavalry di- vision. McNamara visited the Foi encampment Mon- jay. ATTACK CAMP About 200 other guerrillas at- tacked a South Vietnamese spe- cial forces camp and a nearby militia post 90 miles southwest of Saigon, near the Cambodian border in Phong Dinh Province. The guerrillas fired recoilless rifles and mortars for almost five hours. U.S. spokesmen re- ported 15 Viet Cong dead and light government casualties, but no U.S. dead or wounded. A few miles away the Viet Cong released 24 captured gov- ernment agent Ay what Saigon spokesmen ca a periodic move to undermine government morale. South Vietnamese mili- tary commanders feared 'these troops to surrender rather than fight. U.S. spokesmen said air force and navy jets battered bridges, highways and suspected troop concentrations in North Viet Nam, while two air wings flew 399 attacks against suspected Viet Cong targets in the south. More than 200 structures, in- cluding fortifications, were de- Stroyed within South Viet Nam, the spokesmen reported.

Last Friday saboteurs blew up a pylon inside Zambia, causing a temporary shutdown at one big copper mine and curtailing power to two other mines. HEAD OFF ASSISTANCE The main purpose of the goy- ernment's decision, which was made in principle at an emer- gency cabinet meeting Monday, is to head off the possibility that Arab or African troops will be sent to Zambia's assistance. (in Ghana, about 3,000 per- sons Monday joined a volunteer militia established by the gove ernment last week "'for the lib- eration of Southern Rhodesia." It was understood that the British units also would man airfields in Zambia so that they could be used to fly out copper exports and fly in oil supplies if the normal trade route through Rhodesia is blocked by Prime Minister Ian Smith's white-minority break-away gove ernment. s LONDON (Reuters)--An ad- of Zambia to help guard a stra- border, was expected to land on A well-informed source said Prime Minister Wilson decided Monday night to send a token military force to Zambia in re- sponse to repeated calls for help from Zambia's President Ken- Final details of the operation were expected to be settled at a cabinet meeting today.

Based on the same announced goals, there are. some elements of failure. These views are the consen- sus in discussions with qualified sources within and. outside the U.S. government, and are sup- ported in a study of other in- formation available from the government.

That.was only one of hun- dreds of letters hospital ad- ministrator Sister Mary Thomas and her staff have received since the story was printed last spring.
