*Argentina: The stability of the Guido govern-
ment will remain precarious while the :president tries
to form a new cabinet.
All of the. civilian .ministers and the three service
secretaries resigned late on 12 May in a successful move
to force the resignation of Interior Minister Rauch.
General Rauch's exit was probably a compromise
decision worked out by Army Commander in Chief Gn-
ganfa and other military commanders. Although they
support the general line of Rauch's campaign, they
would like tq reduce the political turmoil and threat to
Guido prior to the 7 July elections.
Rauch precipitated the present crisis on 9 May by
publishing charges against four cabinet ministers as
part of his campaign against the "corrupt" influence of
Peron, ex-President Frondizi, and Frondizi's adviser,
Rogelio Frigerio.
Many. civilian as well as military elements share
Rauch's desire to prevent these three from regaining pow-
erful influence and fear .their .present collabaration on.the
selection of a presidential candidate for the Peronist-
supparted front. Rauch's attacks on the ministers ~.nd
others were apparently too broad in scope, however.
Rauh, ?ngania, and other officers maintain that,
despite the crisis, the elections will be held on sched--

Syria-Irago The simultaneous reshuffling of the
Baathist dominated Syrian and Iraqi cabinets on 11 May
appears designed to lessen pro~Nasir pressure in both
countries, but Cairo's propaganda attacks and subver-
sion will continue.
Cairo radio already has charged the Syrian regime
with setting up a "fake national pro-uri~ty fronto' The
appointment of Sami al-Jundi as Syria's new prime min-
ister~designate is a gesture tciward compromise, but the.
reported retention of the key Ministry of Interior past
by Baathist Brigadier Amin a1-Hafiz leaves the Baath
in a commanding position. Hafiz carried out the tough
crackdown on pro-Nasir rioters last week.
In Iraq, the cabinet had come under increasing
criticism for its pro~Baathist policies and failure to
solve outstanding problems. Dropping Deputy Prime
Minister Ali Salih Sadi, the leader of the Iraqi Baath,
from overt participation in the regime may disarm the
Baath's critics even though Baathist Prime Minister
Ahmad Hasan Bakr will retain his post.
In each of the two countries the dismissal of the
cabinet was ~.nnounced by the National Council of the
Revolutionary Command, the actual executive organ
of government. These councils are composed of key
military men and civilian Baathist leaders who decide
policy, while the cabinets are largely facades. ~

Sino~,Soviet Relations: The running debate between
llllloscow and Peiping on Yugoslavia indicates that the
Chinese agreement to send a delegation to the 1'J~~~B, for
bilateral negotiations has not brought the two sides closer
to a settlement of their differences. In quick reply to
several anti,Yugoslav articles and broadcasts by Peeping
on 9 :l~'ay, Izvestia's evening edition of 10 :tray carried
a laudatory articlE on Belgrade?~ new constitution and
contradicted Peiping's charge that Yugoslavia was not a
socialist country. In a clear bid for North ~Tietnamese
support, the Chinese chief of state told a 12 :~~ay rally
in Hanoi that Communist foreign policy "must not be
reduced to the single aspect of peaceful coexistence"
