South Vietnam: Recently translated Viet Cong
documents place major emphasis on achieving demor-
alization of government forces and on expanding guer
rilla bases.
The documents outline a "proselyting" program
which aims to "disintegrate the morale and organiza-
tion of the enemy" and "create favorable conditions
for an uprising to seize power.... " This highly or-
ganized Viet Cong program may have played a signifi-
cant part in the rising desertion rate in the South
Vietnamese armed forces and in the growing difficulty
of the government in recruiting troops.
The captured documents also state that the "neu-
trality of Cambodia and Laos" facilitates the expan-
sion of secure base areas, without which "we cannot
develop our mission." Two of the known major Viet
Cong war zones adjoin Cambodian territory. The
Communists have long infiltrated personnel and sup-
plies through Laos and Cambodia to these and other
base areas in South Vietnam where new units are
formed and command elements are located

Cyprus President Makarios has admitted he is
unable to control extremist elements in the Greek
Cypriot community.
Makarios has told the UN political adviser, Galo
Plaza, that "we are cowards" and that he does not
"dare" take action against the extremist groups re-
sponsible for recent kidnapings of Turkish Cypriots.
Makarios also recently admitted to the British high
commissioner that he "feared" most of the 33 Turk-
ish Cypriot hostages taken since 11 May, when two
Greek Army officers and a Greek Cypriot were killed,
were dead.
UN officers, as well as the Greek ambassador,
have urged members of Makarios' government to
bring the extremists under control, pointing out that
the present drift toward anarchy would lead eventually
to the overthrow of Makarios.
The Cypriot Government has made some effort
at control. Early this month it named a former Greek
Army general to organize a unified "national guard"
to include the irregulars. Little has been accomplished,
however, and many irregular leaders can be expected
to resist strongly attempts to curb their freewheeling.
The US ambassador meanwhile warns that the
Turkish Cypriot irregulars- -many of whom also ap-
pear to be operating free from central control--are
expected to launch attacks at several points if the con-
viction spreads that the Turkish hostages have b n
murdered.

Congo: The rebellion in the eastern Congo prov-
ince of Kivu Central is growing.
In the past week, the Kivu dissidents, whose
hostility seems to be directed primarily against the
provincial government, have taken over the town of
Uvira on Lake Tanganyika, and they now control a
stretch of some 40 miles along the Congo-Burundi
border. They may be aiming at the provincial capital
of Bukavu, the second largest city in eastern Congo.
The rebels' successes appear to result from con-
fusion in the Congo Army command as well as from
the troops' reluctance to fight. At one point, no com-
mander was in charge, and the army abandoned sev-
eral positions. he army continues to depend. on UN
air support for local supply and reconnaissance
Premier Adoula has ordered the army commander
in chief, General Mobutu, to return from his European
tour. The commander in eastern Congo has been or-
dered to move more vigorously, and he is expected
shortly to take further reinforcements from Stanley-
ville to the Bukavu area. The local command seems
extremely lethargic, however.
Committee of National Liberation (CNL) leader
Gaston Soumialot, based in nearby Burundi, is at-
tempting to exploit the situation and reportedly will
soon visit the dissident-held area. There is no evi-
dence yet that the CNL is able to materially aid dis-
sidence in this area, although CNL agents have again
blown up electric power lines into Leopoldville.

Poland: Circulation in April of a second anti-
Gomulka pamphlet reflects the depth of the rifts with-
in the Polish party which Gomulka must attempt to
heal before the opening of the party's congress on 15
June.
This tract, together with one published in Janu-
ary, reveals the existence within the party of at least
four informal groupings, three of which are mutually
antagonistic and are attempting to influence Gomulka
toward their own points of view. The fourth group,
which includes the majority of party members, is
composed of moderates who do not necessarily see
eye to eye on all issues, but who generally tend to
support Gomulka.
Gomulka has moved or is threatening to act
against the two pamphleteering groups. The third,
which controls the police, intelligence, and security 25X1
machiner
pro a ly has improved its chances of
gaining at the congress its first seat on the policy-
making party politburo.
Despite the complications caused by the sensa-
tional pamphlets, it appears now that Gomulka will
dominate the party congress through an adroit com-
bination of coercion and compromise. He will not,
however, be able to restore full party unity, and
factionalism- -directed at influencing policy rather
than at bringing about Gomulka's ouster--will continue
to embarrass the 1, ''!!~
rime even after the congress.

NOTES
Haiti: President Duvalier told close friends and
associates on 15 May that he would close the US Em-
bassy in Port-au-Prince if the US continued to place j
obstacles in the way of his obtaining foreign loans. 0
He asserts that he now has the support of an unidenti-
fied "power" which he believes will strengthen hiG
*Panama: Student rallies scheduled for 22 May
could lead to disturbances in Panama City, where a
political shooting and other incidents are raising ten-
sions during the drawn-out wait for official returns
from the elections held 10 May. The Communist-led
students may hope to use the anniversary of bloody
student riots in 1958 to demonstrate to the incoming
administration that they retain the influence they have
used so successfully on President Chiari in recent
months. Confirmed election returns may not in
until early June.
