U.K. Policy On Laos
LONDON, February 8. The British Foreign Secretary (the Earl of Home), today indicated that Britain might back a proposal of Prince Norodom Sihanouk of Cambodia, for a neutral zone in Laos and Cambodia. Speaking on Laos in a foreign policy speech to the House of Lords, he said: “What is necessary is quickly to achieve a cease fire, and then to consider how the situation of neutrality which was gained in 1954 can be restored, either in Laos alone, or perhaps' in the wider area proposed by Prince Sihanouk “The most practical step is to send back the International Control Commission now.” he said.
