U.S. PRESENCE SUSPECTED
The crash of a U.S. drug spotter plane in rebel-occupied southern
jungle has fueled suspicion Washington is intervening in the 10-year

talks with President Andres Pastrana warn the U.S. of another Vietnam
if it sends troops. But polls suggest ordinary Colombians would
welcome help from the U.S.
