AFTER AUGUST 14 MEETING OF GVN RPT GVN SC AND U.S. MISSION
COUNCIL, I RPT I STAYED FOR PICNIC LUNCH, ACCOMPANIED BY
SULLIVAN AND MANFULL (JOHNSON HAS BEEN LAID UP WITH FLU).
AFTER LUNCH, KHANH TOOK US ASIDE AND PRODUCED A ROUGH
ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF HIS NEW RPT NEW CONSTITUTION. FULL
TEXT, WITH NOTES, TRANSMITTED BY SEPTEL. WE FOUND IT
BRUSQUE IN LANGUAGE AND SUGGESTED TO KHANH THAT IN PRESENT
FORM IT WOULD RAISE CRITICISM IN U.S. AND IN WORLD PRESS. WE
STRESSED TO HIM THAT INTERNAL PROBLEMS OF ACCEPTANCE IN VIETNAM
WERE HIS OWN AFFAIR, AND WE COULD ONLY OFFER OBSERVATIONS ON
THE OBJECTIVE ISSUE OF INTERNATIONAL REACTIONS.
KHANH HEARD OUT THESE OBSERVATIONS WITH APPARENT UNDERSTANDING
AND THEN SUGGESTED THAT WE SHOULD PERHAPS MEET WITH THE COMM-
ISSION WHICH HAD DRAFTED THIS DOCUMENT IN ORDER TO DISCUSS
OUR OBSERVATIONS WITH THEM. I RPT I PROPOSED THAT SULLIVAN AND
MANF.ULL SHOULD REMAIN IN CAP ST. JACQUES RPT CAP ST. JACQUES
FOR THIS PURPOSE WHILE I RPT I RETURNED FOR COMMITMENTS IN
SAIGON.
SULLIVAN AND MANFULIL WERE THEN TAKEN TO PROVINCE CHIEF'S
RESIDENCE WHILE CALL WENT OUT TO VARIOUS VILLAS IN CAP ST.
JACQUES TO ASSEMBLE THE CONSTITUTIONAL COMMISSION. WHEN MISSION
ARRIVED AT RESIDENCE, IT PROVED TO BE HEADED BY ONE-TIME
P.M. TRAN CHANH THANH RPT TRAN CHANH THANH, AND TO BE COMPOSED
OF TRAN LE QUANG RPT TRAN LE QUANG, PLUS FIVE PROMINENT JURISTS,
ONE OF WHOM HAD RECENTLY BEEN CHIEF JUSTICE OF CONSTITUTIONAL
COURT UNDER DIEM RPT DIEM REGIME.
