Hunger Strike Threat Darkens South Viet Nam Politics
In Saigon police fired tear gas and bullets at demonstrators backing a hunger strike by Buddhist monks aiming to topple Premier Tran Van Huong. About 1,000 protesters gathered, a core group of 200 youths clashed with officers, and 20 were arrested as authorities moved toward the Buddhist center. Huong presented his new cabinet, including four generals, to Chief of State Phan Khac Sun. General Nguyen Cao Ky would serve interim in the cabinet. The crisis follows Buddhist leadership claims of nonrevolutionary intent and parallels past upheavals that toppled earlier governments.
