More Fighting Possible
If the Communists manage
to get their supporters onto
the streets. bloody rioting
might lead to still another gov
ernment turnover.
The junta named a transi-
tional President and cabinet
but kept supreme powers for
itself.
Abdel Salam Mohammed
Aref. an outspoken supporter
of President Nasser Of the
United Arab Republic, will be
President until the end Of the
transitional period" said a
communique broadcast by
Baghdad Radio. Aref was a CO.
leader OF the bloody revolution
that had brought Kassem to
power four and one-half years
ago but later was imprisoned
by him for a reported assassi-
nation attempt.
Col. Ahmed Hassan Bakr
was named to head the cabinet
as Prime Minister. Bakr had
been discharged from the army
by Kassem for suspected par
ticipation in a revolt against
him in 1859.
The six-man junta headed
by Col. Abdel Kerim Mustafa
took for itself the powers of
commander = in chief OF the
armed forces. a position that
was held by Kassem and nor
mally would have gone TO the
new president. The move sug-
gested that Aref might be a
figurehead.
Baghdad Radio said the
Junta, calling itself the Ma
tional Council OF the Revolu-
tionary Command. kept control
over all military and legislative
matters.
In Cairo. President Nasser
hailed the revolt as a victory
for the Arab struggle" The
United Arab Republic and It's
Yemen satellite quickly recog-
nized the new regime. and Mas
serites obviously viewed the
coup as a boost for their dream
OF Middle East supremacy.
The rebels reportedly
launched their coup with a
three-hour bombardment OF the
Defense Ministry starting at
dawn Friday. Kassem had
turned the ministry into a
fortress 10 defend himself
against his pro-NaSser enemies.
Kassem. a 48-year-old bach
elor, lived In the ministry, sur
rounded by a security guard.
Reputedly, he slept only three
on four hours a night and took
that rest on a hard soldiers
cot with a bodyguard always

announced that II had stamped
out some plot or other against

Walter N. Tobriner, president

the image of welfare already
had been destroyed in WASH

This was cleared with Sena-

is important that public con-
fidence in the welfare program
be restored"
Mr.. hatcher refused COM
ment.
The welfare director is paid
$l9,500 a year, with a GS II
rating.
In his new post, Mr.. Shea
will receive $17,925, the top of

Now so, he was sworn in as
welfare director on February

Ten or more countries are ex-
pected to be taken off the
United States foreign aid pro-
gram or reduced to receiving
only token help in the next
few years.
Some Of these have outgrown
economic assistance, others
have been unwilling or unable
TO make good use of past help.
This slashing of the list Of
nations now receiving some
form Of American aid from the
present rs or more is expected
TO be one Of the first achieve
ments Of the new director Of
the Agency for International
Development, David Bell.
One Of the most investigated
programs In the Federal Gov
ernment. AID now is UNDER

appraisals.

economy can stand on It's own
feet except for some sustaining
need for military assistance.
Libya has struck oil, with the
aid OF American prospectors.
Thailand has long been ad-
mired for its stable fiscal policies
and has received only relatively
small annual aid Of about $40
million a year.
Greece and Israel are judged
also TO be advancing quickly in
economic development. Greece
may continue TO receive mill
tary assistance for a few more
years. American military aid to
Israel is strictly circumscribed
because OF the American policy
TO avoid encouraging an arms
race with the Arab nations.
CutOffS Expected
