3. Laos
Souvanna himself, in con-
trast to what his political adviser
told us last week, appears optimis-
tic that the Pathet Lao are "coming
around" and will participate actively
in the government.
b. He told Ambassador Unger on
Sunday that he has agreed to the for-
mation of a tripartite police force
in Vientiane--one of Souphannouvones
conditions for the return of the
Pathet Lao leaders.

4. UAR - Yemen -
Saudi Arabia
c. However, General Phoumi,
who controls the city, is unlikely
to agree to anything more than a
token integration.
? d, We doubt that Souvanna
can really restore stability be-
fore he leaves on Monday for an ex-
tended trip abroad.
a. Egyptian forces still
have their hands full trying to
subdue the Yemeni royalists.
d. On 'Monday, Faysal vigor-
ously reaffirmed to our embassy
his contention that Cairo has not
complied with the disengagement
agreement, but gave no indication
of vossible Saudi action,

NOTES
A. South Vietnam There has been no significant
change in the overall situation
B. Iran Trouble may be brewing over the elec-
Ha's set for 17 September. Government pres-
sure on civil servants to assure a sizable
vote has created widespread resentment, while
religious fanatics are increasing anti-govern-
ment agitation. Tehran insists publicly that
the elections will not be riggecil
C. UK-Kenya-Somalia Talks in Rome have failed to
resolve the dispute caused by Somali territorial
claims in Kenya.
I I Kenya turned down a Somali proposal for
either joint or UN administration of the dis-
puted area pending further negotiations. We
expect the Somalis will now set out to stir up
more trouble in the area,
D. Eastern Europe - USSR The active phase of a
Warsaw Pact exercise involving East German,
Czech, and Polish forces apparently began on
-Friday. We cannot be sure o the decree of So-
viet participation, if any.
