He drew assign- ment to the newly-created post of director of news and public affairs. It was mainly in the public affairs area, with some yeasty selections carried on such pro- grams as This Hour has Seven Days brewing up plenty of pub- lic comment, that opinion dif- ferences became evident. Mr. Hogg has been handed control of the purse strings and assign- ment of staff within the depart- ment. Although some This Hour se- lections have raised hackles in both Parliament and the CBC, the corporation is. basically happy with the TV show. Its booming ratings have not gone unnoticed. Any changes for the program probably are along the lines of having it tack closer to a hard for the second year of the con- tract. news line and steer clear of superficial sensationalism.

A five - point communique turned legislative powers to the chief of state, Phan Khac Suu. It did not agree to reinstate the High National Council, which was dissolved in the' purge. Lt.-Gen. Nguyen Khanh, com- mander-in-chief of the armed forces, signed the communique with Suu, Premier Tran Van Huong and two deputy prime ministers. The civilian government will be charged with 'organizing a national assembly probably with a direct vote in the cities and an indirect vote in the countryside," the communique said. It added that the seven mem- bers of the High National Coun- cil arrested in the purge will be released immediately. The action appeared to have ended, at least for the present, South Viet Nam's three-week- old political crisis.
