oty Pushes Search for France's 23rd Postwar Premier, Mollet Quits Psri TP President Rene Cotjr said today he would push ahead in his difficult search for Trance's 23rd postwar premier "With a haste made necessary by Taj determination to visit the Toiled States as scheduled on June 3. Premier Guy Mollet, who lost m vote of confidence in the Na tional Assembly Tuesday night, Mid today he refused "absolute ly" to remain in office and Coty fcegsn looking around for some rat el who could command a majority in an assembly split 13 different ways. Plans T Take Plane Socialist Andre le Troquer, ipeaker of the house and Coty's first caller today, said Coty told him he would fly to the U.S. June 1 or 2 instead of going by ship next Monday as originally planned. The National Assembly top pled the Socialist Party rule of Mollet shortly before midnight when it rejected his call for new taxes for the Algerian war by a i vote of 250-213. It was not a ma jority of the 596-man house since 133 persons were absent or did not vote. But it was enough for Mollet and the 51-year-old pre mier quit. Though the vote was on his call for $420 million new taxes the outcome reflected the divid ed feelings of France's 13 poli tical parties on such diverse sub jects as the Algerian rebellion, The Suet Canal invasion and the fight against inflation. Poses Big Problem And it was this sharp division that presented Coty with the ex tremely difficult task of finding a new premier acceptable to the assembly which grouped itself in a dozen different ways to give Mollet 33 previous votes of con fidence. Sometimes Mollet had the sup port of the left and sometimes the right, and although his ten ure was the longest of any post war French premier 15 months and three weeks it was as shaky as the 21 others during the 11 years of the Fourth Re public. Mollet was expected to remain Jordan Orders Public Off 4 Plotters Against By UNITED PRESS Jordan authorities ordered the public hanging today of four men who plotted to overthrow King Hussein during the recent political crisis touched off by his leftist opponents. Wooden gallows were erected in the main squares of four of Jordan's cities where anti-Hussein and anti-Western demon strations were crushed by loyal Bedouin tribesmen of the one time Arab Legion. The cities were Amman, Nab lus, Hebron and Tulkarm. The last three are all in areas west of the Jordan river, stronghold of ouster Premier Suleiman El Nabulsi. Tulkarm is on the Is raeli border. Ringleaders on Trial Special courts still were try ing ringleaders while hundreds of police and troops searched for Known communists and agi tators suspected of being i volved in the conspiracy. Nabulsi himself was reported held under house arrest in Jor dan while scores of his followers were either arrested or purgd from the government and the army. Egypt, which appared to have lost much of its close ties with Jordan as -result of the crisis and its anti-Hussein propaganda, turned its attention today to France and the United Nations.

They were equally pleased with outcome of the French-inspired U.N. Security Council de bate on the Suez. That ended with only a "suggestion" that Egypt remove western doubts about Egyptian regulations for operating the canal. Ben-Gurion Faces Crisis Two of the three prime minis ters who ordered attacks against Egypt last fall have fallen, Brit ish Minister Sir Anthony Eden and Mollet. Jerusalem dispatches today reported the third, Pre mier David Ben-Gurion, faced a cabinet crisis over the Eisen hower doctrine. The parliamentary revolt was led by two left-wing labor par ties in Ben-Gurion's coalition Cabinet. They were disclosed to have voted against Israeli acceptance of the Eisenhower doctrine dur ing two emergency cabinet ses sions Monday night and Tuesday. Pilots Compete in Photo Reconnaissance Laarbruech, Germany (IP) American and British versions of the high flying Canberra whisked over Germany today in a dress rehearsal for President Eisenhower's "open skies" pro gram. The British and American pilots flew high level photog raphy reconnaissance in compe tition for the Gen. Alfred M. Gruenther aerial photography trophy. Recent hints Russia may ac cept some form of the Presi dent's proposal for "open skies" over East and West defenses lent special interest ,to the annual competition.

They used American built RF84Fs and British Swift FR5 jets. on as a caretaker premier until Coty can select another leader. But he will be without power to take major decisions and France will have only a token voice in world affairs. Effects of Resignation His resignation had these im mediate effects: The government's fight against the Algerian rebellion was se verely curbed . and new anti- French riots were feared. Important questions were left unsolved about the Suez Canal and whether France will end its boycott. Mollet was brought down on the tax question alone by a com bination of abstentions by the 45 Radical Socialists led by Pierre Mendes - France, a former pre mier, and by an adverse vote from the Independents who for merly supported him. Mendes France has fiercely opposed Mol let's "tough" handling of the Al gerian rebels. A few names suggested them selves as possible premier-An-toine Pinay, a former premier who won popularity with his save the franc" campaign in 1952; Rene Pleven, also a former premier and author of the ill fated European army plan. But the Socialists remained the key party, and it appeared certain Coty would ask Mollet to try again. Judge Refuses To Quash Indictments In Portland Probe Portland (TP) Circuit Judge Charles Redding Tuesday denied motions to dismiss and quash indictments against several per sons. Those who sought to have the indictments dismissed included Mayor Terry Schrunk, Oregon Journal reporter Brad Williams; Deputy Sheriff George Minelly; and former Deputy District At torney Howard Lonergan. A main point of contention against some of the indictments was that they contained a list of more witnesses than were actual ly questioned about the indict ments. Schrunk Trial June 17 Judge Redding said Schrunk's perjury trial would be continued until June 17. It had been sched uled to start today. William M. Langley, former district attorney, filed motion in Federal Court to have Circuit Court contempt proceedings against himself and some others who testified at Elks' trial re moved to the federal court. Cir cuit Judge Redding had set Fri day for a hearing on a motion asking why Langley and others should not be held in contempt for federal testimony about a raid, ruled illegal in state courts, in which wiretaps were seized.
