a A Quaker Action Group's yacht, Phoenix, sailed Kovember
14 for Da Nang, loaded with medical supplies, with the avowed
‘intention of delivering half to the South Vietnamese Red Cross
and half to the militant Buddhist of thar country. Visas and
permission had been issued at Hong Kong by the South Viet-
mamese consul.
However, at Da Nang an official South Vietnamese boat met
the Phoenix to announce that the Government had changed its
ind and canceled the visas. No explanation was given. As the
TJournat went to press, the Quaker craft was on its way to the
gport of Saigon in another attempt to bring medical assistance?
to sufferers on both sides of the conflict. If delivery of supplies
to both the South Vietnamese Red Cross and the Buddhists
could not be assured, the crew had permission to donate thd
cargo to the Red Cross Societies of the North Vietnamese and
the National Liberation Front via the International Control
Commission’s plane from Cambodia.
Sull at the warehouse at Hong Kong was $5,000 worth of
Surgical instruments to be delivered by some means to the Red
Cross in North Vietnam, which states that direct delivery to
Nv P
Haiphong is not possible under intensified bombing conditions.
