There has been heavy fight- ing around Kokkina and Mansoura in the western part of the island. b. The Turkish Cypriots have built a stronghold in this area in recent weeks, with the help of men and arms smuggled in from Turkey. c.

Congo g. Grivas may not yet be sure of how he will play his hand against Makarios. We continue to think his presence will not be conducive to peace and quiet. a. Albertville has apparently again been occupied by rebel forces. 50X1 b. last 50X1 night Congolese Army forces 50X1 were being pushed back toward the city by unidentified Katangan rebels. Panic reigned in the city. The press reports this morning that Baluba tribesmen are roaming the city unchecked. c. As of yesterday, evacuation of European dependents was still bogged down.

Argentina d. Loss of Albertville to the rebels is another heavy blow to the central government, and will put still more steam behind sepa- ratist tendOncies elsewhere. e. The political stew in Leopoldville is coming to the boil as the mandate of the present gov- ernment approaches term on 30 June. Three of the principal political coteries have now called for the release of Gizenga and the return of exiles under amnesty. a. President Illia has de- cided to take a firm stand against the agitation campaign of the General Confederation of Labor (CGT). b. The CGT has postponed until 28 June an attempt to strike the whole country. It threatens to continue local strikes, however, and yesterday pulled out some thousands of industrial and mari- time workers in Buenos Aires. c. Illia, whose economic and social policy has so far been one of masterful inactivity,has been conciliatory to labor up to now. Businessmen and the military, how- ever, have been insisting that he must stand up to the CGT, whose sit- in technique is highly disruptive.
