Van Der Walle's forces are still
tied up in Stanleyville. Rebel resist-
ance continues in the northeast.
The new Sudanese
Government has decided to help and has
given rebel leaders refuge.
Buddhists defied the government
order limiting the size of their funeral
march today, but troops kept them in
line. Chau has again threatened an all-
out campaign unless there are drastic
government changes. The High National
Council has publicly recommended a cab-
inet reshuffle "when the situation per-
mits."
Coup rumors are flying and the tri-
umvirate is under heavy fire from several
sides for economic bungling. A general
strike, supported by political and busi-
ness leaders as well as labor, is sched-
uled for Wednesday.
King Zahir has accepted Peiping's
offer of a development loan of $28 mil-
lion, which will probably involve a siz-
able number of Chinese technicians.
details will
be negotiated early next year.
Ambassador Bohlen believes that if
the UK-French "Concorde" transport proj-
ect breaks down, Paris may seek US help.
A decision may come soon.

Prime Minister Mansur, since taking
over last March, has been unable to halt
Iran's economic decline. His austerity
measures, increasingly unpopular, have
provoked a rash of strikes. The Shah
probably sees his own prestige in jeop-
ardy as a result and may soon jettison
Mansur.
The prime ministers of Denmark,
Norway, and Sweden have accepted Soviet
invitations to visit Moscow in return
for Khrushchev's travels earlier this
year. The Soviets want an early date,
presumably in order to make their case
on the MLF and Article 19.
