United States Deputy Consul

see no political significance in

the building seems to be a regu-

rioting here. There were some,
however, who professed to see
in the attack links to the elec-

An audit Of the District High
way Department by the Gen.
eral Accounting once indicates
that the District failed to claim
hundreds of thousands of dol
lars in Federal matching funds
for which it was eligible, ac-
cording to q GAO letter.
A draft copy Of this audit
was sent to District of1icials q
few days ago for comment be-
fore it Is submitted to Con-
greSS.
While the audit is not ex-
pected to be made public until
January at the earliest, q we'll
informed source has told The
Star that it is critical of some
of the Districts accounting
procedures.
This document also discusses
some Of the contentious made
in q special warning letter the
GAO sent the District more
than q year ago when the
audit was first started.
Mclaughlin Addressed
The letter advised Robert e.
Mclaughlin, president of the
District Board of Commission
ers. that the Districts proce-
dures Ibid not provide for
obtaining the proper reimburse
ment from Federal funds
under the Federal-Aid Highway
Acts"
Commissioner Mclaughlin
later replied that the District
was taking steps to revise its
procedures to obtain additional
Federal refunds.
Efforts by The Star to obtain
a copy of the GAO letter from
District officials had been un-
successful. However, the GAO
made it available.
The letter, signed by A. r.
Samuelson. director of the Civil
Accounting and Auditing Divi-
sion Of the GAO, said that the
full extent TO which the District
had not obtained Federal
matching funds to which 1t was
entitled "is not ascertainable
because Of the lack Of account
ing data" available from the
District.
Engineering Work Cited
However, as one example. the
letter cited a case where the
Federal Government could have
been asked to pay its share of
a 100000 item for engineering
work performed by District
engineers.
The letter also said that the
District paid $252.565 more of
its own funds than was neces-
sary because it applied for so
per cent reimbursement of costs
when it could have asked for
80 per cent recovery from the
Federal Government.
In another case, the District
obtained an additional reim-
bursement from the Federal
Government of $195,000 after
the General Accounting Office
showed the District how to
change the program for one OF
its projects to. obtain greater
Federal participation. accord
ing to the letter.
Costs for which the District
had not been claiming reim-
bursement from the Fedora
Government. according to Mr.
Samuelson's letter, included:
Payments for appraisals
negotiators' salaries, engineer.
ing work performed by District
engineers and relocation o1
utilities.
Mr.. Samuelson said that "tht
highway officials agree that tht
District cannot obtain thu
proper amounts reimbursabls

Deposes Diem
President Ousted
In Brief, Bloody
Coup in Suiqon

SAIGON, South Wet Nam,
Nov. II. (AP).-Paratroop bat
talions overthrew President
Ngo Dinh Diem today in q brief
but bloody before dawn upris-
ing. The rebels set up a mill
tary regime pledged to
strengthen the nations fight
against Communist infiltration
and end the rule of the Diem
family.
Mr.. Diem has fought Com
munist guerrillas in South Wet
Nam vigorously, but Communist
activity has increased despite
his efforts. The army wants to
intensity the pressure, and re-
wise Mr.. Diem's harsh methods,
which loyal peasants feel have
afflicted them in some cases as
much as the Communists.
Between 20 and 80 persons
were killed and many others
were wounded in sharp fighting
between the rebel battalions
-and troops loyal to Mr.. Diem.
But by 3 pm. calm prevailed in
the capital. Armored units
rolled into the city from Mytho,
rs miles to the south, in answer
to a call from the President
but they Joined the rebels.
The rebel military commit
tee which took over the gov
ernment was headed by para
trooper Col. Nguyen Chanh
Thai. It claimed the full sup
port Of the army. navy and air
force and said it had formed q
temporary government. It or
dered all military units to re-
main calm.
No American Casualties
, No casualties were reported
among the several thousand
Americans in the country as
military or civilian advisers to
the Diem government.
The SO = year old bachelor
President. a dedicated anti
Communist whose dictatorial
methods and family influences
had often come under fire, was
reported alive inside the cream
and white presidential palace in
the heart of Saigon. It was not
known immediately whether he
was under formal arrest. ~
There was no word Of the
Presidents brother, Ngo Diem
Nhu, or his wife. They were
Mr.. Diem's closest advisers,

and have been considered the
powers behind the President.
The rebel military committee,
in a broadcast announcing the
custer of the pro-American
President, charged:
"Ngo Dinh Diem adopted a
family dictatorship and was
unable to face the situation
which has deteriorated because
of mounting Communist dam
ger. The army has been divid-
ed and the population is with
out any freedom"
No Neutralism Seen
There was absolutely no in
dication that the army rebels
contemplated a neutralist poll
icy, as neighboring Laos has
just adopted. The new military
junta said in a broadcast it had
no political affiliations and had
seized control of the govern
ment "to re-establish security
in the country"
Communist rebels have beer
more and more active in South
Wet Nam in recent weeks. De-
spite Mr.. Diegn's militant anti
communism. every day has
