with the Gaullist rightists inn Parliament HE THEN became increasingly expendable as a result of a tax case under which he used a perfectly legal loophole to escape almost all his income tax for several years Somehow or other a copy of his income-tax return got into the hands of a small Paris weekly that delights in exposes Although Chaban-Delmas Bitterly defended himself in a television broadcast last March it was clear from then on that his days as prime minister were numbered A further factor in decision to reshuffle his government at i time may also be an agreement announced last week by the French Communist and Socialist parties to mount a joint election three years Like Messmer Chaban-Delmas has an outstanding resistance record but although he was a supporter of the Gaullist regime and president of the National Assembly during De rule he was never one of the inner circle of those personally trusted by De Gaulle Moreover he deliberately set out as prime minister to move the government somewhat to the left in social pol- campaign when the parliamentary elections are held The Communists agreed moreover to an unusual series of and commitments as to how they would behave if they could form a government with the Socialists This may have triggered decision to get both the government and the UDR in shape for elections rather than drift on with a Cabinet that was going to

Timai Wir PARIS President Georges Pompidou abruptly fired Prime Minister Jacques Chaban-Delmas Wednesday and named a strong Gaullist Pierre Messmer to succeed him The move Is generally interpreted as an effort by Pompidou to give his government a new look and increase its Gaullist image and appeal in preparation for parliamentary elections The elections must be held by next spring but now may come much earlier The new prime minister who is 56 years old has a faithful Gaullist record of wartime resistance and service as minister of defense forr the entire 11 years of President Charles de rule WHEN POMPIDOU was elected president in June 1969 and Chaban-Delmas formed the government Messmer was left out But he then became minister for overseas territories in a minor Cabinet reshuffle in 1971 after De death He will certainly command greater loyalty and personal support from the ultra-Gaul-lists of the ruling' parliamentary party the Union for a Democratic Republic (UDR) than Chaban-Delmas received in his three years in office The entire government left office automatically with the prime minister but indications are that at least two senior ministers will return to their present posts Foreign Minister Maurice Schumann and Defense Minister Michel Debre Both left Paris Wednesday night on official visits overseas Debre to Washington and Schumann to Peking THE NEW CABINET is expected to be completed by Friday and chief interest will center on whether Finance Minister Valery Giscard Des-taing is also kept in the same office Ambitious and highly capable he heads a parliamentary faction known as the Independent Republicans whose support is important although not numerically essential to the domination of the National Asssembly Chaban-Delmas has been for months but in the end his sudden departure came as a surprise Only Tuesday he joined Pompidou in Bonn for top-level talks with Chancellor Willy Brandt and the West German government But a West German spokesman revealed after the announcement of the French changes that Pompidou has privately informed Brandt what was coming during their talks and that Brandt in turn informed the West German Cabinet at its meeting Wednesday before the news broke in Paris IN A BRIEF exchange of letters Chaban-Delmas simply noted to Pompidou that have informed me of your intention to change the and submitted his resignation and that of the government Pompidou in a relatively cool reply said that he had the for his decision then offered some routine praises for the former prime intelligence and skill in the direction of

WASHINGTON (AP) A Pentagon order directing military air traffic to avoid airports imposing passenger taxes threatened Wednesday to divert thousands of air travelers particularly from Philadelphia International Airport The instructions from the Army-administered Military Traffic Management Terminal Service (MTMTS) applied to the head taxes that went into effect July 1 at five airports but was the only one through which large volumes of military traffic are funneled regularly The Philadelphia tax was also the most severe $2 a person levied not only on departing passengers but on arriving passengers as well Taxes of $1 on each departing passenger went into effect also Saturday at Richmond Va Huntsville Ala Sarasota-Bradenton and Saginaw Mich Four states and more than a dozen cities arre considering similar taxes MTMTS sent out notices to its transportation officers around the world listing the cities where head taxes are going into effect The agency said each individual traveling on a regularly scheduled service whether singly or in a group would be personally responsible for payment of any head tax It instructed traffic officers to route military passengers whenever possible through airports that do not impose a head tax A major effect of the order was on traffic into and out of Fort Dix NJ Military personnel normally traveling by way of Philadelphia will use the Newark NJ airport instead when practical At least one operator of a limousine service operating primarily between Philadelphia and Fort Dix said the action would put him out of business The MTMTS order applies to military personnel traveling on commercial flights on official business Those traveling at their own expense without military orders were not involved nor were military flights
