Dominican Republic:Leaders of the Caamano government have been somewhat more forthcoming
during the past week in their talks with the OAS com-
mittee on a formula for a settlement of the three-
month-old crisis.
Ambassador Bunker, IFS member of the committee,
is optimistic that the rebels may accept the latest com-
mittee draft of the "institutional act" that would serve
as a constitution for the proposed provisional govern-
ment.
Pressures among non-Communists in the rebel
camp for an early settlement stem at least in part
from the continued deterioration of rebel morale and
from a growing inability of regime leaders to main-
tain discipline and control among the disparate elements
in the rebel zone.
Another potent voice has been added to the number
of Dominican civic groups pressing for an early solu-
tion. The country's large sit labor confederation, which
has been under democratic leadership since 1962, has
drafted a declaration to both the Caamano and Imbert
governments urging them to cease placing obstacles
in the way of the immediate formation of a provisional
government.

hands, is still disrupting life in the interior.
Unemployment is a serious problem.
living conditions have improved somewhat since the early

Reports from the Dominican interior also reflect
widespread desire for a quick settlement. Although

Greece: The political crisis remains unresolved,
and large-scale demonstrations to be held this week
could lead to renewed violence.

The psychological tug of war between the
Athanasiadis-Novas government and former premier
Papandreou's faction has intensified. No definite
trend toward either camp has developed, however, as
the bulk of the Center Union deputies search for some
indication of which side will win. he embassy com-
ments that most of them are committed to nothing
other than their own political survivafl
Parliament reconvenes on Thursday to consider
Athanasiadis-Novas' bid for a vote of confidence, but
the real struggle could come on Wednesday when
Papandreou may call a meeting of all the deputies
representing the Center Union party in a last-ditch
effort to mobilize support. Such a meeting could
split the party wide open.
Despite security precautions that have been taken,
renewed violence is possible during the next few days.
The leftist General Confederation of Labor has called
for a general strike on Tuesday, and conservative
labor unionists are planning a mass demonstration on
Wednesday. New student demonstrations are also
threatened
the King still appears likely to turn to former deputy
prime minister Stefanopoulos to form a new government)
[if Athanasiadis-Novas fails to win a vote of con-
fidence and to secure a viable parliamentary majority,

Britain: Reginald Maudling and Edward Heath are
the top conten ers to succeed Sir Alec Douglas-Home as
Conservative Party leader in the Tory MP balloting
which begins tomorrow
Some Conservative MPs believe the two men will
be very close on the first ballot. Should the election
require a second ballot on Thursday, many MPs are
expected to vote for Tuesday's front runner in order
to demonstrate party solidarity
Lihe US Embassy believes that both Maudling and
Heath have solid leadership qualifications and draw
support from among the young modernist, nonaristo-
cratic elements on whom the party's future mainly
depends
M audling, however, may appeal more to older
MPs and to those coming from rural constituencies
than does the obviously ambitious Heath, who is also
politically handicapped by being a bachelor
Douglas-Home is expected to continue to exert a
strong influence in party councils.
IN
Douglas-Home will probably be
asked to take the foreign affairs brief in the shadow
cabinet in order to rally his supporters behind the new
leadership and to reassure the more conserv tive
elements that basic policies will not change.

Israel- Lebanon. Israel appears to be building up
a public case to justify an early move against Lebanon's
project to divert Jordan River waters.
In recent days Israeli officials have been airing
charges against Lebanon to Western press sources.
This runs counter to an earlier undertaking to keep
the matter within diplomatic channels.
Lon the basis of Israel's recent tactics, the
British ambassador to Tel.Aviv has concluded that
Israel is now poised to take action" against the
Lebanese project
Earlier this year Israeli military harassment
brought work on a similar diversion project in Syria
to a halt.

NOTES

France-NATO: [Paris has informed SACEUR that
its decision of last May not to participate in the NATO
command post exercise Fallex 66 is to be interpreted
to exclude the participation of French officers serving
with the integrated NATO headquarters staff. The
French chief of staff has requested that the exercise
be organized so that no French officers are involved
except communications personnel. In this latest step
in the progressive weakening of the links between NATO
and French national military forces, Paris has now
directly challenged SACEUR's authority to determine
how French personnel assi ned to his staff shall be
employed
span: Prime Minister Sato's Liberal Democratic
Party has lost its usual majority in the Tokyo Metro-
politan Assembly following Friday's city-wide elections
in which local graft and corruption were the main
issues. The left-wing socialists, who won a plurality
of the seats, and the Communists, who increased their
holdings from two to nine seats, probably will attempt
to use the assembly as a platform from which to
denounce US policy in Vietnam. The Buddhist-based
Clean Government Party, which holds the balance of
power, may be expected to support the Liberal-Demo-
crats on most municipal mutters,
