Syrian Army
 Taking Over
 Government
Morning Coup d'Etat Ex- etuted-President and
 Cabinet Arrested

DAMASCUS, Syria, March 3O-tR Brig. Hosney Fl Zaim, comman- der of the Syrian army, took over the government of Syria today.
 We have been compelled to undertake this change in the re- gime because of attacks against the army inside as well as outside the House of Representatives, which gave way to misrepresentation of the Syrian army and ill treatment of it's officers" Fl Zaim said.
 Another reason for it is the peoples discontent with the pre- sent rule and the abuse from per- sonalities handling it.
 The commander cabled the United Nations that the Syrian army took it's action to put an end to internal anarchy. It confirmed Syrias adherence to her former agreements and respect for Democ- racy.
 The United States Legation at Damascus reported to Washington that the Syrian army has arrested President Quawalti and his entire cabinet and is in complete control of the city.
 The report from American Minis ter James Hugh Keeley, Jr., said the army accomplished an early morning coup d'etat. He said the army described its assumption of power as a temporary measure to- ward achieving truly Democratic regime.
 Last December there was rioting in Syria. It expressed popular re- sentiment over the governments handling of the Palestine war with Israel.
 As result of the riots, Premier Jamil Mardam Bey and his cabinet resigned and Mardam Bey fled the country.
 A successor cabinet was formed under Premier Khaled Bey Azem.
 A Rhodes dispatch said yesterday two emissaries of Dr. Raluh J. Bunche, acting United Nations mediator, were leaving for Damas- GUS to lay groundwork for armistice negotiations between Syria and Israel.
