The new engagement in the north began as another massive Vietnamese op eration against the Communists fizzled out in the jungle east of Saigon. On the diplo matic front, Red China' made a new attack against the United States, in effect calling U.S. Secretary of State Dean Rusk a liar who uses "gangsters' logic." The official New China News Agency charged Rusk with "open war threats" against North Viet Nam. Rusk said in a New York speech Thursday night that U.S. forces are in Southeast Asia "to help independent peo ples resist aggressions. Our troops could come home tomorrow if the aggressors would go back North and stay at home," Rusk added. Health Care Vote Soon A comprehensive health care plan for the aged, with optional doctor bill cover age as well as hospitalization, may be sent to the House in about a week. This was indicated yesterday by actions of the House Ways and Means Committee. The com mittee was reported informally to have reached a consensus. It suspended until next Wednesday its daily closed meetings, directing its staff to draft the language of a bill. No final votes have been taken, it was understood, and the plans is still subject to change at all points. Informants representing a wide range of views in the committee agreed that a majority appears to favor what some called a "three-layer cake." The bottom layer is essentially President Johnson's administration plan for hospitalization, convalescent home and limited home nursing benefits, all to be financed by an added payroll tax and ad ministered by Social Security. Everyone over 65 would be covered.

Marches Continue In Alabama More than 150 Negroes made two right to-vote marches on the courthouse in Cam den yesterday. Both times they were halt ed by armed police on the outskirts of the Alabama town. The second wave of marchers knelt and prayed and sat along side the road for approximately an hour and a half after they were stopped by Mayor F. R. Albritton and eight helmeted policemen. Three officers were armed with shotguns and all carried nightsticks. When they left in late afternoon, many of the teen-agers in the Negro group waved and shouted, "Goodby, goodbye" to the officers. The police did not answer. Albritton, a ser vice station operator in this west-central Alabama town of about 2,500,, told Negro leaders of both the morning and afternoon marches that they had no parade permit and he would not let them march.
