Dispatches from Saigon In the southern state of Cochin-China reported Moutet's arrival there yesterday on a special fact-finding mission. He was greeted by Admiral George Thierry d'Ar genlicu. French high commis sioner for Indo-China, who had arrived from Paris earlier in the week. Moutet also was greeted at the airport by delegates claiming to represent the majority of the Annamitc population as well as many French, who presented him with a petition asking re placement of d'Argenlieu and most ol his regime. The dele gates maintained that dissatis faction with d'Argenlieu was largely responsible for the trou ble in the north. Saigon itself was fairly quiet during the night, the French press agency reported. Hand grenades were said to have been thrown into a French barracks and at a French military truck, but without causing any casual ties. A policeman was killed and another seriously wounded in another incident, the agency said. Saigon was under a 10 p.. m. to 5 a. m. curfew. The Saigon advices said Moutct declined to comment on the situ ation, merely declaring that there had been no change in French policy and that his gov ernment would continue to work for the protection of legitimate French interests, French citizens and friends of France.
