Abstract:
Throughout South Vietnam the Viet Cong (VC) continue to face serious problems. Everywhere, except some parts of IV Corps, food and manpower are in serious short supply. Tax collection is an increasing problem in all areas. Popular support continues to decline. This is accelerated by the VC's increased use of terror and repression to force support. The chief new development in July was the greatly increasing attention devoted to the approaching national elections. This consisted almost entirely of planning, propagandazing, and spreading threats of death to those who support the elections.
