France Gives
Gen. Ely New
Responsibility
Cen. Navarro
Il Removed Frazs
Indochina Command

PARIS U-France ordered Gen.
Paul Ely. armed forces chief Of
staff, to the double-barreled job Of
military and political chief in In
dochina today. BY putting a new
man In the combined command,
Premier Joseph Laniel's Cabinet
sought to bolster the sagging de-
lenses Of the revolt-torn country.
Ely, Sc, replaces Gen. Henri
Navarro as military commander
in chief and Maurice Dejean a.
commissioner general Of Indochina.
Navarro particularly has been a
major target Of criticism since the
fall Of Diem Bien Phu.
Ely recently returned from q
survey mission to the Far Eastern
battle-ground. His report has been
made the basis Of government
plans for about defense against
new Vietminh rebel threats to the
vital Red River delta around
Hanoi.
VIII Fight On
The appointment came shortly
after Laniel's shaky regime gave
further evidence of its determine.
ton to fight on in Indochina. The
Cabinet yesterday named Edouard
Frederic-Dupont minister for the
Associated States Of Indochina and
raised the post to full Cabinet rank.
Frederick upont's predecessor,
Marc Jacquet, held the junior min
isterial rank Of secretary OF state.
In combining the top Indochinese
military and political commands
the government returned to the set
I'D followed when the late Marshal
Jean de Lattre de Tassigny hurled
the Communicated Vietminh back
from the delta in 1851.
De Lattre had been given both
costs after a try at dividing them,
to minimize military influence on
the developing Wet Nam govern
ment, had not proved entirely sue
cessful. BY again concentrating
power in one mans hands, the gov
eminent obviously hoped Ely would
be able to repeat De Lattre's sue
cessful offensive.
There was no immediate an.
nouncement of new assignments
for Navarro and pejean. Both men
had assumed their duties in 1ndo-
china only last year.
Ely's successor also was not an
nounced Immediately.
The new Indochina chief is q
thrice-wounded veteran of both
world wars. A graduate of st. Cyr
military academy, Frances West
Point, he became chief Of staff
last August. .

grounds that its ''artistic integrity"

Despite the annual operating de-
ficit of $400, 900, directors decided
that under the circumstances
and as matter of policy, the
