Brazil: (The US Embassy in Rio de Janeiro de-
scri5isthe current attitude of the Goulart govern-
ment town d the Brazilian left as contradictory and
equivocal
ment
In reviewing the Brazilian political scene, the
emb ssy noted that Goulart and his followers have
recently made a number of concessions to the left
in the labor field, including appointments of pro-
Communists to influential posts in the labor move-
(On the other hand, Goulart has provoked leftist
criticism by several anti-inflation moves in recent
weeks. His government has also apparently caused
the postponement of a Communist- sponsored. Con-
gress tor Solidarity with Cuba, scheduled for this
month)
The embassy indicates that recent statements
by Gooulart have been intentionally equivocal. On
21 February, for example, he told the US ambassa-
dor that he intends to follow a moderate domestic
and foreign policy, but for political reasons must
appear to be making concessions to the left. On 6
March, however, in an answer to Communist-influ-
enced port workers, he indicated that he is against
the "enemies of the people," but must at 4mes make
concessions to them for tactical reasons

Iraca Deputy Prime Minister Sadi's call on 10
March for a joint military and political command for
the "liberated" Arab states is an attempt to head off,
by an expression of Arab solidarity, public pressures
in Iraq and Syria for union of Syria, Egypt, and Iraq.
Sadi's mention of the "liberated" states by name
--UAR, Iraq, Syria, Algeria, and Yemen--is an at-
tempt to relegate the UAR to the position of an equal
partner in the movement for Arab unity. Sadi's pro-
posal has little military potential.
If such a joint command should develop, Nasir
is likely to welcome it, at least publicly, in the hope
of ultimately dominating this or any other institution
created to promote unity of these "liberated" coun-
tries. He probably also will see it as a useful de-
vice for adding to the pressure on the Jordanian and
Saudi governments. r- I

Communist China - Laos: Although Peiping has
promised to withdraw its road uilding teams from
Laos following completion in April of a highway
from the Chinese border into Phong Saly, scattered
low-level reports indicate that Chinese may already
be at work on a more extensive road project farther,
south which would require more time to complete.))
he withdrawal was announced in a joint com-
munique issued on 10, March at the conclusion of a
visit to China by the Laotian King. The promise to
pull out was probably prompted by recent publicity
concerning Chinese Communist intervention in Laos)
The Laotians had requested Chinese help in con-
structing: an extension of the Phong. Saly road to the
southwest. There has been no word about Peiping's
response but several reports indicate that the Chi-
nese have started work on some portions of this
route which apparently runs to Ban. Houei Sai via
Muong. Sing, Na Tha and the Chinese Communist
town of Mengla.
