The official U.S. position is that any invasion of North Vietnam is out of the question, Ky said Thursday that, if there were enough volunteers for the March to the North Army, "we will form it." He added that he would go north with the army. But these statements are seen as attempts by Ky to gather political support. Informed observers believe that if the new group gains momentum and fits Ky's political ambitions, he will jump into the leadership. What President Nguyen Van Thieu thinks about the matter is not known.

Gold (Continued from Page 1) Woods said of the current pic- ture. Woods replied "Of course it is" when asked at a White House dinner if he thought the dollar was in danger. The speculative gold buying stemmed from suspicion of paper money in the wake of the British devaluation of the pound last Nov. 18, a feeling the programs proposed by the United States to end its dollar drain may not succeed and a belief the price of gold might rise. U.S.

officials have called this belief absurd. The United States contributed $771.2 million in gold to the London market during the last quarter of 1967, which represented its share of gold sales in the first two buying sprees which followed devaluation. Earlier this week, the Treasury switched another $450 million in gold from the money stock to a special fund at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York where actual sales to foreign governments are made. Much of this is expected to go to the gold pool. The increase in the Federal Reserve discount rate is the seclond since the November devaluation of the pound.

The rate moved from 4 to 4.5 per cent on Nov. 20 to help prevent an outflow of dollars to higher interest rates in Europe. When Britain devalued, she raised her discount rate to 8 per cent, where it now stands. One source said the U.S. increase is only a partial measlure.

He said the board still feels adoption of the 10 per cent tax surcharge Johnson is proposed imperative. by PresiAn increase in the discount rate in December 1965 coupled with other tightening techniques raised interest rates to their highest levels in 40 years and dried up the supply of mortgage money, Housing suffered a recession as a result but experienced a steady recovery last year. Home building "and mortgage money are considered most vulnerable in a tight money squeeze. Interest rates currently, however, are already near peak levels and the new action could send them even higher. RMA Spring Project Plans Nearly Finished John B.

Dunsmore reported the Spring Art Three-Car City Crash Injures Two Two DuPont Avenue residents were injured, in a three car crash yesterday at 4:50 p.m. on Churchville Avenue. Treated and released at King's Daughters' Hospital were Mrs.

McCarthy (Continued from Page 1) the effect would be in Oregon. But in Portland, Sen. Wayne Morse, said he has written Kennedy that if he joins McCarthy in the May 28 primary against Johnson, the vote be split and "the President will undoubtedly get the highest vote" -and with it the state's 35 convention delegates. By adding Indiana and South Dakota, McCarthy now is running in 9 of the 15 presidential primaries. Kennedy has indicated he would make a strong effort, if he runs in the nonprimary states.

But McCarthy aides said they are at work there, too. Meanwhile, there were indications of support for McCarthy and criticism of Kennedy. "It's a shame Kennedy chose to take a free ride on McCarthy's back," actor Paul Newman said. "He should have had the courage to take his stand earlier." Newman and his actress wife Joanne Woodward have been working for McCarthy -but said they may switch to Kennedy, In South Bend, James A. Bogle, chairman of the Hoosiers for a Democratic Alternative, which McCarthy is scheduled address Saturday, said he didn't know how many from his organization might support Kennedy.

"Nobody in our organization is encouraging Kennedy run," he added. McCarthy's decision to enter the Indiana and South Dakota primaries was welcomed by Democratic Sens. Vance Hartke of Indiana and George S. McGovern of South Dakota, both allied with McCarthy's criticism of the Vietnam war policy, Neither expressed outright support for McCarthy, however. Before heading for Indiana, McCarthy scheduled speeches Wisconsin today and Saturday.

In Wisconsin, National Committeeman David Carley urged President Johnson to speak the state to help his cause in the primary. Rep. Clement Zablocki Milwaukee, the only Democratic congressman in the state fully supporting Johnson, said he doubted the President would come but voiced hope for help from Vice President Hubert Humphrey. Meanwhile, Richard M. Nixon made three stops during a oneday visit to Wisconsin.

On the Paris bourse, exchange dealers and gold sellers gave the buying rate for the American dollar at 4.85 francs, down from 4.9350 Thursday, the top for the year, The pound was quoted at 11.50 francs, off from 11.7825-11.8000 Thursday. With the resumption of limited trading in Germany, one leading commercial bank in Frankfurt said "good customers" would be served if their orders did not exceed a few kilos. Other banks were following the same line. Since no quotation was available from London, the Thursday price was being used in Germany. De Gussa, the big commercial firm handling most of West Germany's bullion trade, stuck by its decision not to sell gold and other precious metals.

Swiss banks opened as usual, but refused to accept new or'ders for gold. Zurich normally accounts for about one third the world's demand on the London market. Swiss bankers, generally welcomed the London closing and U.S. measures to strengthen the dollar. But some felt they came too late and that much damage could have been prevented Washington had reacted earlier.

In Moscow, the Communist party organ Pravda blamed the gold crisis on "U.S. aggression" in Vietnam. It claimed "gigantic expenditures" the United States is making to carry on war effort had shaken confidence in the dollar and raised the. demand for gold to panic proportions.
