Notes

Original script untitled. Transcript of script: "(Paris) -- The Foreign Minister of Greece has made an impassioned defense of his country's military regime before the Council of Europe. But he offered no new proposals for restoration of democratic procedures by the Athens Government. The Council of Europe is to vote in Paris today on a move by the Scandinavian countries to suspend Greece until real progress has been made toward democratization. Greece has threatened to re-evaluate her contributions to European defense if she is suspended. (Saigon) -- Allied forces report killing nearly 200 of the enemy in the latest round of Vietnam fighting. The U-S Command said American forces accounted for 111 of the enemy deaths, while the South Vietnamese reported killing __. Most of the fighting occurred along infiltration routes from Cambodia. But sharp fighting also was reported in the Mekong Delta and near Da Nang. In Saigon, South Vietnamese President Thieu (Too) said a coalition government could not prevent a communist takeover. (Washington) -- It is expected to be another four months before an Army probe of the alleged My Lai (Mee Ly') Massacre is completed. But Army sources say they expect charges to be placed against a number of men. Twenty-four soldiers and former soldiers reportedly are being investigated. Lieutenant William Calley already has been charged with 10 counts of murder."
