DAILY BRIEF

Cyprus, The UN peace-keeping force in Cyprus
will Fe -formally constituted today, according to UN
officials in New York, and the UN mediator expects
to arrive by the middle of, next week.
President Makarios objects to U Thant's including
the 950 Greek and 650 Turkish troops now in Cyprus
in the peace-keeping force. The Greek Cypriots ap-
parently fear that- acceptance of these contingents
might prejudice NicosWs campaign toterminate the
Greece - Turkey- Cyprus Treaty of Alliance.
Support for union of Cyprus with Greece (Ilenosis")
is lonuilnuine to develop among Greek Cypriots, r
J When violence broke out
between Greek-ain-d-T-u-TR"I'st Cypriots last December,
there was little obvious support for enosis, although
it had been the rallying cry of the Greek Cypriots in
the struggle against the British during the 19 'US
~Pecently, however, there have been pro-enosis
dem8nstrations in several cities, and most of the non-
Communist Greek Cypriot press now calls for union
with Greece as the final political "settlement" of the
Cyprus dispute
01 he Greek Cypriot Emergency, Force (GCEF), the
irregular organization which has done most of the
fighting against Turkish Cypriots, has reincorporated
into its oath a pledge to "fight for enosis" which had
been dropped last fall. New recruits must further
pledge to "fight aga . t Communism a promise not

('Many Greek Cypriot elements are also demanding
the eturn to Cyprus from Athens of General George
Grivas, the militant anti-Communist leader of the
underground EOKA organization from 1955 to 1959?
Minister of Interior Georkadjis, principal leader of
the GCEF, is supporting Grivas' return and the enosis
movement. He probably aims by then Bans to un-
dermine the political power of Makarioso

*Zanzibar: Pro-Communists hold all key govern-
ment posts following yesterday's cabinet shuffle.
In the ten weeks since African nationalists ousted
the dominant Arab elite, pro-Communists have moved
to neutralize nationalists, eliminate all moderate pro-
Western influences, and tie the islands economically
and militarily to the Communist bloc. Two Moscow-
trained labor leaders who played a major role in this
maneuver have now taken over the Ministry of Finance
and Development, and the .Ministry of Communications
and Works.
The former ministers of finance and education--
both moderates--have been assigned to Washington
and London, with pro-Communists as their deputies.
Although both ministers were leaders in President
Karume's Afro-Shirazi Party, they were his prerev-
olutionary rivals and their, transfer may have had his
approval.
There is no indication that any confrontation be-
tween Karume and the pro-Communists is imminent.
He has appeared indifferent to the pro-Communists'
maneuvers and decrees, which are disguised as Black
African socialism.
Karume's newly appointed executive assistant is
a Moscow-trained protege of Vice President Han a
a self-styled Marxist with a Russian wife.

Gabon: LPresident Mba still shows no disposition
to conciliate his now formidable opposition, and fur-
ther trouble may be in the offing.
(rhe US Embassy in Libreville reports that Mba
is be oming more confident and intransigent as the
scheduled 12 April elections draw nearer. Unless
Paris applies pressure, the embassy believes he will
probably use increasingly repressive and brutal meas-
ures to stay in power
a is receiving strong support from influential
private French interests in Gabon, notably Roland Bru,
a wealthy French businessman who has long claimed
to be "the real government" of the country. Bru is
reputed to have top-level connections in Paris, and
this may account in part for the French Government's
failure to force Mba to follow the coriliatory course
avowedly favored by the Quai d'Ors
A commission established to investigate the 18
February military coup has indicted Mba's principal
political opponent, Jean Aubame. There is consider-
able concern in Libreville, shared by the embassy,
that the imprisoned Aubame may be executed or mur-
dered before the elections. Aubame has become the
hero of the growing number of anti-French Gabonese.
Further action against him could well provoke w 25X1
antigovernment and anti-French disturbance

Belgium-Congo: Belgium's relations with the
Congo have improved as a result of Foreign Minister
Spaak's mid-March visit to Leopoldville.
During Spaak's visit, a tentative agreement was
reached on sharing the public debt that the Congo had
acquired before independence. This agreement may
be formalized in a treaty, possibly by 30 June. Nego-
tiations appear to be progressing on the extremely
complicated problem of transferring the former colo-
nial government's shares of businesses and utilities
to the Adoula government. Adoula and Spaak also
agreed on the need for supplying increased numbers
of Belgian technicians to assist the Congo.

L bya: Prime Minister Muntassir continues to
believe that pressures for the removal of Western
bases from Libya will not ease. He feels that nego-
tiations should start within one month, but has told
the US ambassador that he recognizes that sudden
liquidation of the bases is both unreasonable and
impracticable. Muntassir says he believes' a phase-
out of two or three years would be reasonable, but
the Libyan Government is likely to press for an
earlier date when negotiations
