communist ina - Nepal: Chou En-lai left KatmUrWidif
29 April after a three-day visit during which he took every
opportunity- -including denial of any claim to the southern slopes
of Everest--to increase Peiping's influence in Nepal and to
make India appear intransigent in the border negotiations. De-
spite his efforts, the resultant treaty of peace and friendship
with Nepal omits any prohibition. on defense arrangements
with third countries.

I. THE COMMUNIST BLOC
Chou En-Tai's' Visit to N. epa.1.
Communist China's Premier Chou En-lai left Katmandu
on 29 April after a three -day visit during which he took every
opportunity to increase Peiping's influence in Nepal. Stress-
ing the advantages of closer economic cooperation, Chou-?char-.
acterized both Nepal and Communist China as "poor" nations
which must help each other--"the Chinese Government is will-
ing to give support within its capability for the construction
of Nepal." Chinese aid, now totaling $33,600,000, is "sincere,
without any condition attached, " Chou said. He proposed
that some of these grant funds be used to build a road linking
Tibet and Nepal,
Chou. stressed that the Sino-Nepalese border problem could
easily be settled in a manner "satisfactory to both. sides." This
attempt to make it appear that Nehru was the intransigent part-
ner to the recent unsuccessful border talks in New Delhi was
highlighted by Chou's denial that Communist China had any
intention of claiming the southern slopes of Mount Everest.
Just before leaving Katmandu, Chou and Nepal's Prime
Minister Koirala. signed a treaty of peace and friendship omit-
ting the clause on military nonalignment reportedly sought by
the Chinese. The joint communiqud, however, did include
expressions of sympathy and support for Afro-Asian national-
ist movements. LKeportedly, Chou had attempted to get Nehru
to do this in the joint Sino-Indian communiqud signed on 25
April, but the Indian prime minister refused. Chou, who in-
tends these statements to make it appear that Peiping is lin-
ing up support for national liberation:,. also tried unsuccessfully
to get Nehru to join him in a recommendation for an Afro-Asian
conferences
Chou's irritation with the lack of progress in the Sino-In-
than talks was reflected in. his charge on 29 April that Nehru
had been "unfriendly" when he told the Indian Parliament on
26 April that China had committed aggression in Ladakh.

Student Demonstrations Spread in Turkey
Student rioting spread on. 29 April. to at least seven other
cities after originating in Istanbul on the preceding day. Some
.of the most serious rioting occurred in the capital, Ankara, where
several students were reported killed. Reports in Ankara indicate
that. Erzurum in eastern Turkey, site of Ataturk University, . was
also the scene of serious demonstrations. Other cities affected by
the student demonstrations against the repressive policies of the
Menderes government are Izmir, Adana, Trabzon, Sivas, and Sam-
sun. Martial. law, applied in Istanbul and Ankara on 28 April, may
soon be imposed on the. entire nation. Thus far,. there has been no
evidence that the riots have assumed an anti-American. character.
Reports indicate that the demonstrators have been almost ex-
clusively students, with the general. public- taking no active part, in
the rioting. The police have been the special target of the students,.
while detachments of soldiers sent to assist the police have usually
been greeted as potential allies against the government. There
have been.no reports, however, of troops joining with the students.
Premier Menderes addressed. the, nation and called for calm
on. 29 April. He also denounced the "party fanatics" who have insti-
gated the demonstrations--an apparent reference. to the leaders of
the opposition Republican People's party (RPP). The premier prom-
ised swift punishment for those. responsible for the riots and stated
his government's intention to preserve peace and tranquillity. A
Ministry of Interior statement on the same day specifically blamed
the RPP for instigating the demonstrations in Istanbul on the 28th.
the situation.is critical and believes that the only solution
is the resignation of the present government and the appointment of
a new cabinet. 70 percent of the military through-
out Turkey now is sympa e tic to the RPP.

templating resignation, there is known to exist a faction within hisJ

Pressures Mount in Indonesia
3'rssures by the army an anti-Communist po is par-
ties in Indonesia to prevent installation. of President Sukarno's
appointed parliament have reached the point of provoking ex-
changes between Djakarta and Sukarno, now midway on a two-
month global tour, The 261-member parliament is approxi-
mately 25 -percent Communist and was appointed by Sukarno
in late March to replace the elected body he had dissolved
earlier the same month)
Acting. President Djuanda reportedly has advised Sukarno
to reconsider his plan to install the parliament.in June.
the President remains deter-
mined to install and maintain the new parliament until elections
are held in 1962. Sukarno has reportedly sent back orders
that "no principal measure" is to be taken before his return
and that newspapers which are criticizing his policies should
be banned. While the dailies have not been banned,
Army Chief of Staff Nasution, who
is concurrently security minister, ordered the papers to cease
criticism of Sukarno but continue antiparliamentary articles.
Recent issues of the newspapers concerned tend to substanti-
ate these report
{Army leadership.has insisted that the .recently formed coali-
tion, the Democratic League, and the newspapers which sup-
port the league must take the initiative in opposing. Sukarno.
The league now is attempting to create regional opposition to
the parliament. Army support of these activities, although
covert, has become an open secret. Should pressures by
the army and political parties prove insufficient to keep Sukarno
from installing parliament in June, the President, in retali-
ation. for army opposition, might further reduce Nasution's
power or even dismiss him.

coup during Sukarno's absence or shortly after his return in`

.III. THE WEST
Prospects for Cuban May. Day. Rally
The mammoth May. Day rally, planned to demonstrate over-
whelming support for 'Fidel Castro, seems certain to be primarily
a concentrated attack on the United States and on what remains
of private enterprise in Cuba. Developmentswhich the US Embassy
considers likely include announcements of the: nationalization of
public services and of the reorganization of the labor movement
under strict government control, statements that there must be
some change in the status of the US Naval Base at Guatanamo Bay,
and calls for ]Puerto Rican freedom and Panamanian control of the
Panama Canal. Castro is expected to condemn strongly alleged
US intervention in Cuba through political and economic pressures
and "bombings:'
Castro may also try a political. gambit, such as setting a date
to hold elections in order to deflect criticism of his dictatorial gov-
ernment. An announcement on May. Day that diplomatic relations
with the USSR will be resumed is considered by the embassy to be
unlikely, tut F- I reports that an
"important" Cuban Soviet announcement is planned for. 8 May.
The US service attaches report that the Castro government
for the first time is having to use strong-arm methods and threats
to ensure. large attendance at the rally. Government-controlled
Radio Mambi. is haranguing its listeners to be present to show the
world that there "is a small nation ready to face up to the colossus
of imperialism:'
Organizers of a simultaneous large demonstration in Santiago,
capital. of western Oriente Province, have not yet stressed the anti-
US campaign. However, the principle speaker at Santiago will be
