1. Brazil
a. Goulart and family are in
Uruguay, according to official state-
ments from Montevideo. So is Brizola.
b. President Mazzilli has named
Vasco Leitao da Cunha as foreign
minister and Octavio Gouveia de Bul-
hoes to the finance post? Both are
regarded as pro-US.
c. The roundup of Communists and
leftists continues; all known leftists
are being removed from command positions
in the armed forces.
d. Even so, revolutionary leaders
are becoming more critical of the way
Mazzilli is handling things. Governor
Pinto of Minas Gerais and General
Kruel have added their voices to that
of Governor De Barros (Sao Paulo)

2. Israel-France
3. Cyprus
a. Makarios and Kuchuk are agreed
on only one thing: that the UN medi-
ator will fail.
b. There is no disposition to
compromise and neither side has given
Tuomioja any proposals to work with.
c. Makarios is talking of abro-
gating the Treaty of Alliance. He is
putting out press releases saying he
will do so this weekend because the
Turkish contingent has refused his or-
der to return to camp.
d.
/1Makarios' objective
clearly is to establish control with
the Greek Cypriot security force as

NOTES
?
A. Bolivia President Paz' running mate in next month's
elections, General Barrientos, is threatening to resign
his candidacy in protest over Federico Fortun's maneu-
vering to regain the vice-presidential nomination. Paz
had to drop Fortun in favor of Barrientos in order to
keep the armed forces in line. If the general should now
quit, there will be trouble from his sizeable popular
following.
. Panama No violence has been reported as yet in con-
E687175n with the leftist demonstrations planned for this
weekend. The National Guard still expects trouble, how-
ever, and is girding for it.
