Cabinet shakeup aims at military support in Saigon
Premier Tran Van Huong reshuffled his 75 day old cabinet naming four generals to key posts while dropping two ministers facing Buddhist opposition. A U S Embassy spokesman called the moves positive, suggesting stronger military influence in government as two American advisers were reported missing in action after clashes with a Viet Cong battalion. In Jackson Mississippi two more suspects in the civil rights workers killings were taken into custody as arraignment plans were set for 18 defendants with motions due January 25.
