2. Yemen
a. Despite their absence from
the reviewing stands in Red Square
yesterday, our attaches managed to
get a good look at thd equipment as
it lined up on a side street. They
saw nothing new.
b. Marshal Malinovsky's speech,
otherwise mostly ..a. humdrum set
piece, did charge that the US and
its allies were stepping up their
espionage efforts. This may be part
of the stage-setting for the upcom-
ing Penkovsky trial.

F--Vrol KOzlov, still missing at
the May Day ceremonies
the Yugoslav ambassador in Moscow.
The ambassador told one of his col--
leagues on one day that Kozlov was
sick, and on_the next, that he was
on vacation.'
a. The proposal that General
Von Horn's reconnaissance mission
might serve as a starting point for
a de facto disengagement operation,
without further UN consideration,
has blown up a storm at UN headquarters.

3, Cuba
a. Yesterday's celebrations
in Havana featured what is described
as the largest workers' parade in
Cuban history. It was a sober oc-
casion, however, devoted largely to
an exhortation for increased pro-
duction, and the May Day parade in-
cluded no displays of military equip-
ment.
b. The absence of military
equipment from the parade causes us
to look for another explanation--
ossibl a mobilit exercise
d. The Cubans have been in-
vited to name observers to two com-
missions of the bloc's Council for
Mutual Economic Assistance (CEMA)--
those dealing with machinery con-
struction and transport./

NOTES
C.
Haiti
Duvalier is trying to
put his hands on ad-
ditional
military aircraft.
D.
