(UPI) Defense Secretary Rob
ert S. McNamara and Gen. Max
well D. Taylor postponed their
departure for 24 hours today
and continued their investiga
tion of South Viet Nam's mili
tary and political situation.
McNamara and Taylor, chair
man of the Joint Chiefs of Staff,
conferred Sunday with Presi
dent Ngo Dinh Diem, but no de
tails of the talks were made
public.
Black-Tic Dinner
Arthur Sylvester, Defense De
partment spokesman, said the
two military leaders spent more
than five hours with Diem. They
conferred with him privately for
three hours, then attended a
two-hour black-tic dinner with
the president
Informed sources said Diem
told McNamara and Taylor the
war against the Communist Viet
Cong is going well, and that po
litical dissension was not ham
pering the war effort.
Needs American Support
These sources also said Diem
insisted anything less than con
tinued all-out American support
for the war would be a mistake.
Sylvester refused to disclose
the subject matter of the meet
ing. He said McNamara and
Taylor would not see Diem's
brother Ngo Dinh Nhu, during
their visit. Nhu is Diem's chief
advisor, and the husband of the
sharp-tongued Mme. Nhu.
Today, Taylor went to Ben
Cat. a district capital 28 miles
north of Saigon, where he heard
Viet Nam's chief of staff predict
victory over the Communist Vict
Cong guerrillas by next year.
McNamara stayed in Saigon
for talks with other members of
the eight - man mission sent
there by President Kennedy to
assess the prospects of winning
the guerrilla war and whether
Diem's crackdown on the Budd
hists has harmed these pros
pects. Expect t!ll4 Victory
Maj. Gen. Tran Van Don, who
briefed Taylor at Ben Cat, said
in a statement that was also dis
tributed to the press: "I feel we
shall achieve victory in South
Viet Nam in 1064."
He said the success of Vietna
mese planning depends on the
results of the strategic hamlet
program, a system of fortified
villages in guerrilla-infested ter
ritory, and the support of the
Vietnamese armed lorces and
their U.S. advisers.

Debate Definition
VATICAN CITY (UPI) - Fa
thers of the Ecumenical Council
opened the second session of
their historic Vatican gathering
today with debate on a docu
ment defining the nature of the
church and their own authority.
They found it generally ac
ceptable, although a number of
changes were proposed.
The first working session of
the reconvened council was de
voted to general discussion of a
draft document entitled "de cc
clcsia" "about the church."
Contents Secret
The contents of the draft
one of 17 awaiting council action
still are secret.
It is understood that the docu
ment enhances the authority and
prestige of local bishops as part
ners of the Pope in the govern
ment of the Roman Catholic
church. It also assigns a more
important role to the Catholic
laity in church life and contem
plates the raising of deacons to
an ecclesiastical rank.
One passage which may have
an important bearing on Chris
tian unity recognizes that all
baptized Christians arc in some
way related to the mystical body
of Christ even though not mem
bers of the Catholic church.
At a press briefing following
the closed session in St. Peter's
Basilica, spokesman said the
"general consensus" of the coun
cil fathers who spoke today was

document.

Identification
Of Suspects
'More Than Two'
Being Questioned
BIRMINGHAM. Ala (UPD-
Two white men were jailed early
today in connection with a
church bombing that killed four
Negro girls.
Col. Al Lingo, head of the.
Alabama state police, refused to
identify the suspects who were
held on an open charge but a
high police official said two men
identified as R. E. Chambliss
and Charles Cagle were being
held for state authorities.
Both were previously connect
ed with Ku Klux Klan activities
in Alabama.
1 Chambliss, in his SOs, was
once arrested lor smashing a
photographer's camera at a
Man rally in the Birmingham
area and was one of the signers
of papers to incorporate a Klan
group in the 1950s.
Cagle, 22, lives in a rural area
near Birmingham. He was one
of six men arrested near Tusca
loosa prior to the first racial
days prior to the first racial
integration at the University of
Alabama. Police said all six
were en route to a Ku Klux
Klan rally. Cagle was charged
with carrying a concealed
weapon.
The two suspects, their faces
covered with small laundry
packages that appeared to con
tain clean shirts, were hustled
into the city jail during the pre
dawn hours.
Lingo, who was in on the
interrogation of the suspects at
state trooper district head
quarters just outside Birming
ham, said a number of suspects
had been arrested at various
times Sunday night. He had
said "more than two" men
were being questioned.
But when Lingo emerged
from the city jail later turning
the suspects over to the city, he
indicated that those were the
only two being held. Asked
about his previous statement,
he said "at that time there
was more than two" suspects
being questioned.
Lingo steadfastly refused to
say who the suspects were and
countered all questions from
newsmen with "no statement."
Birmingham has had 22
bombings since 11156 all un
solved. More than $76,000 in
reward money has been offered
for information leading tn con
viction of the bombers.
Affidavit Sought
Regarding Salary
The Jackson county court is
awaiting an affidavit from the '
Jackson County Juvenile Advi
sory council before it meets
with the budget committee on
an emergency salary allocation
for the juvenile detention home,
it was reported today.
The county court needs the.
affidavit to prove an emergen
cy exists before it can refer the
matter to the county budget
committee. County Juvenile Su
pervisor Lawrence Tweedy has
asked for $3,600 to hire a night
relief man for the detention
home. This would allow a $401)
monthly salary for nine months
or for the remainder of the
present fiscal year.
A couple had been acting as
night relief supervisors of the.
detention home in exchange for
their room and board. However,
they resigned recently freeing
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Swan, su
perintendent and matron, and
the regular relief couple, Mr.
and Mrs. Bert Saarf, to work
long hours.

Two East Germans who iden
tified themselves as "journal
