Makarios has already be- 50X1
gun to tighten the screws on the UN force
and the Turkish Cypriots. He has, for
example, reneged on proposals for easing
tensions at Famagusta that he himself
signed in the first instance.
Ambassador Belcher believes that the
Cyprus situation is headed for a new
period of uncertainty and danger. He
feels that the "most critical develop-
ment" of his tenure in Nicosia may be at
hand

The Quat government continues to
display satisfaction with the way af-
fairs are going. Members of the govern-
ment deny--so far convincingly--rumors
of disputes and disloyalties to Quat
among themselves.
There has been no change in the
level and pattern of Viet Cong activity
during the past 24 hours. No official
report has been received yet on the
firing by US Marines at Danang last
ni?ht as re orted

The Nigerian High Commission in Accra
says it has seen documentary evidence in-
dicating that yesterday's demonstration
against the US Embassy was staged by the
regime. The Nigerians have promised to
furnish the details.
National congressional elections
tomorrow are expected to give additional
seats to parties sympathetic to Peronism.
If the Peronist gains turn out to be sub-
stantial, political tensions could rise
sharply, possibly leading to a showdown
induced by the military.
