The Saigon power struggle widens as President Thieu sacks Lt General Nguyen Duc Thang, citing toughness on corruption and closeness to Vice President Ky. Analysts call Thang a soldier’s general, removed amid Thieu’s effort to curb Ky’s influence. A rocket attack that killed Ky-linked officials aided Thieu’s move, heightening domestic distrust as Americans watch cautiously.

Envoys Need Support for Paris Peace Talks
The piece argues U S negotiators in Paris lack backing to threaten force, citing Admiral Joy's doctrine. It criticizes Johnson for constraining Averell Harriman and Cyrus Vance, urges clear plenary power to back talks with action, and notes domestic politics may hinder decisive policy toward North Vietnam and Ho Chi Minh. It praises bipartisan support from Paul Douglas's peace group but questions White House liaison.
