Artful Proposal. In Saigon, the elements of farce in the situation were underlined with tragedy. There was talk of a coup, and the guard around the presidential palace was reinforced. Saigon gossips began adding up the forces loyal to Vice President Ky, which are thought to include some marine, airborne and armor battalions, plus six prop-driven Skyraiders at Tan Son Nhut airbase.

Though intensely loyal to Nixon, Connally has begun to doubt whether the public has confidence in ?or can even comprehend?the President's economic policy.
