Also in the palace at the time, the source said, was another brother of Diem, Ro: Catho- lic Archbishop Ngo Dini Thuc, who had come to Saigon from Hue for medical treatment. It was not known in which wing of the palace President Diem had been living. Diem was the target of a short - lived uprising by five paratroop battalions 15 months ago, but today's air attack ap- peared to be an isolated assault by a few anti-Diem pilots rather than a large-scale plot against is regime. There was no move to follow up the air attack on the ground and no reports of rebellion by government forces elsehwere in the country. UNDER CONTROL Diem said loyal armed forces had the situation 'completely under control throughout the na- tional territory." A government radio newscast said one of the attacking planes --identified as AD-6 Skyraiders supplied to South Viet Nam's air force by the United States--was down near the coast and its of- ficer pilot was captured alive. Military sources in Saigon said two LSTS of the Viet Nam Navy shot the plane down.
