It is a time of bringing together many friends. People go for miles to visit with their families. However. for a million and a half refugees. there will be very little reason for joy at the beginning of this celebration. because 6.000 homes were destroyed in operation Cedar Falls3.500 alone in the town of Binh Su. The houses were then leveled by bulldozers. and the refugees were then resettled by the government. They have been officially registered. and now they receive about 8 cents a day. or 10 piasters. which keeps them going. Martha Gelhorn. one of the people who have visited in the area. told of visiting one of these refugee places. an eight- or 10foot hut made of flattened. rolled beer cans. The father was ill and could not work. The mother. who was described as looking about 55 years of age and probably was actually 35. had seven children. three of whom were ill. all of whom were undernourished.
