17 January 1964
Panama: Pro-Communist agitators (originally
students, but now also including professionals)
have succeeded in the past several days in keep-
ing nationalist feeling at fever pitch.
They have coalesced into a Committee for
the Defense of National Sovereignty to keep the
pressure on President Chiari to stiffen his
attitude toward us.
In the weeks ahead, they will be aided in
this by campaigning for May's Presidential elec-
tions.

day. The communique is vague about its accom-
plishments, but several seem indicated.
Agreement was evidently reached on an essen-
tially moderate response to Israel's preparations
to use the Jordan waters.

The appearance of inter-Arab conciliation
was fostered by the resumption of relations be-
tween Egypt and Jordan and by apparently ami-
cable contacts between Nasir and Morocco's King
Masan.
There is no sign yet, however, that the at-
tention he lavished on King Saud will bring better
relations between these two countries.
6. Zanzibar: Evidence is mounting of complicity
in the coup of officials in both the Kenyan and
Tanganyikan government.
Past support of some of the coup leaders from
both Cuba and Communist China is an established
fact. The extent of their direct participation,
if any, is not yet clear.
The traditional enmity between Arab and Afri-
can in Zanzibar,could erupt into communal violence,
and many of the Arab population, seeing handwrit-
ing on the wall, are departing for the mainland.

and, along with four US newsmen, has gone to Dar-

Communist newsmen from all over the Bloc have been
flocking in and have received royal treatment for
their unctuous dispatches.
Anti-American feeling is thus whipping up,
Only one American remains: the Embassy's
Third Secretary Petterson.
7. Yemen: Last week's reorganization of the
Yemeni government was actually a step backward.
There was no broadening of political representa-
tion in the government, and the presence of two
Egyptians on the all-powerful National Security
Council makes the country appear more than ever.
an Egyptian colony. It does not have the backing
of important tribesmen and religious elders, and
probably will prove unstable in the long run.
8. Bolivia: New unrest, possibly violence,
is in the offing in Bolivia.
The nominating convention of President Paz'
MNR (National Revolutionary Movement) party
opened yesterday, and if, as is planned, Vice
President Lechin is denied a place on the ticket,
he is likely to lead his supporters into the
streets if not attempt a coup.
