<p> BETTER RED THAN UNFED. Viet Nam's aging Communist hierarchy
has sent a clear signal that major Soviet-style political
reforms are out of the question. This aversion to change stems
both from ideology and practicality. Hanoi, long allied with
Moscow and at odds with Beijing, has been offered $2.1 billion
in aid from China to cover a projected shortfall in Soviet
assistance. The collateral: a commitment from Hanoi to keep
glasnost from breaking out near China's southern border.
