Viet Nam Premier Fires Security Chief In Hanoi Crisis

Premier Ngo Dinh Diem dismissed a Binh Xuyen appointee Lu van Sang as director general of Vietnamese security police in Saigon and named Col. Neuyen Kaoe Le as Sang's successor. Le will operate temporarily a half mile from the police HQ as order from the new leadership goes to about 5,000 provincial agents. The move heightens the government Binh Xuyen feud. The Binh Xuyen refuse to yield control of police, claiming only the ex Emperor Kao Dai could revoke Sang’s appointment. Diem’s initial plan to seize the HQ by force was discouraged by French Gen. Ely and American Gen. Collins. The period of calm in Saigon broke when two national army trucks were fired on in Tho Lon.
