cause both houses amended the
revenue measures after they had
been agreed to by a Senate
House conference committee

mittee's report was adopted BY
both houses, none Of the bills
mentioned in it could be altered.
The bills boosting the States
income which were signed by
Gov. McKeldin. House Speaker
Luber, Democrat. of Baltimore
and Senate President Goldstein,
Democrat, of Calvert included:
/. A withholding system for
State income taxes beginning

Collins Brings President

ton Collins.
Recalled from Saigon for ur-
gent discussions on the civil war
threat in free Wet Nam. Gen.
Collins flew into Washington
late yesterday. He declined to
discuss with reporters what rec
concentrations he will make dur
ing his stay in Washington, but
he did say the United States is
behind the legal government
Of Wet Nam"
Thus Gen Collins indicated
continuing American support of
Premier Ngo Dinh Diem, whose
government is threatened by the
rebellious Binh Xuyen Society
and two political-religious sects.
Nevertheless, there were mount
ing reports that the days of the
Diem regime were numbered.

PARIS. April 22.-Informed
circles here are expecting the
dismissal of the Diem govern
ment in Wet Nam to be an
nounced within the next few
days.
In marked contrast to reports
from Washington indicating a

support for the present Wet Nam
government. it is believed here
that a clear Franco-American
agreement has been reached con-
corning Premier Ngo Dinh
Diem's dismissal and his replace
ment by a more broadly based
provisional government. An
abrupt shift in tone of the State
Department is anticipated after
a report of Gen. j. Lawton Col
Inns. President Eisenhower's spe-
cial envoy. who flew to Washing
ton yesterday.
See Unity as Impossible
The attitude of the French
government toward the Diem
government is based on a convic-
ton he can never unite the
country sufficiently to make a
general election in Wet Nam
possible. The French believe
this more than ever since the
outbreak of fighting between Mr..
Diem and the various sectS. This
outbreak of open hostility has
apparently convinced Americans
as well that Mr.. Diem is lost
cause.

eminent will be to form a CO.
alition in which the sects will
participate. MIR. Diem himself
has been incapable or unwilling
to secure the cooperation of
dissident leaders within his own
government. Assuming that such
a government can be formed the
next objective will be to hold
general elections throughout
Wet Nam to create a popular
general assembly. 1t is thought
here such elections might con-
ceivebly be held within the next
three months.
No Serious Problem
Mechanics for dismissing Mr..
Diem present no serious problem.
The present premier holds his
authority by direct appointment
from Emperor Boa Dali and can
be dismissed at the Emperor's
will. Bao Dali already has tele-
graphed Mr. Diem from Cannes
indicating his dissatisfaction
with political developments in
Wet Nam 1t is felt the Emperor
would be receptive to suggestions
concerning the constitution of
the new government.
For obvious reasons the ques-
ton of Mr. Diem's successor re-
mains delicate at this point. It
is known, however. no member
of Bao Dai's immediate family
will receive the appointment nor
any leader of an individual re-
ligious sect. The probability is
the new premier will be a mill
tary figure who stands a reason

legiance Of army and rival sect
