Bizarre Case May Jail U S Attorney General
In Jackson Mississippi the Justice Department seeks to appeal a judge who jailed a district attorney for refusing to sign indictments from a federal grand jury. Judge Cox found contempt of court against D A Hauberg and civil contempt against acting Attorney General Katzenbach, granting five days for appeal. The Biloxi grand jury had been seated over the Philadelphia Mississippi civil rights workers murder case. No indictments were returned. Hauberg said Katzenbach instructed him not to sign.

Military Court Frees Viet Coup Leaders in Saigon
A military court freed 20 people accused in last month’s coup attempt against Premier Nguyen Khanh. Thirteen military officers and seven civilians were released after a three hour session, saying there was not enough evidence of treason. The move aligns with Khanh’s plan to secure civilian and military support before a new government takes office. Among the defendants were five former National Assembly members from the Ngo Dinh Diem regime.

No Increase Expected In Budget McNamara
Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara says neither the Kremlin shakeup nor Red China's nuclear detonation will significantly boost next year's military budget. He asserts U S forces are adequate to survive a surprise attack and strike back to assure destruction of both Communist China and the Soviet Union. He cautions it is too early to judge Khrushchev's ouster and Soviet changes, but believes current conventional forces and battlefield nuclear weapons suffice for national security for the foreseeable future.
