DAILY BRIEF
30 DECEMBER 1964
1. South Vietnam Khanh and his generals are still
deliberating at a resort near Saigoni
2. Laos
3. Nigeria
. France
5. UAR
Dis-
cussions between civil government and
the generals have not yet begun.)
while the generals back Khanh in refus-
ing to restore the High Council, many
of them oppose his anti-American tactics.
Souvanna Phouma has been calming
down the contentious rightist generals,
and Ambassador Sullivan says that the
two leading rightist figures both look
for a long period of political jockeying
rather than a showdown. Road watch
teams in south-central Laos, which have
been noting considerable southward move-
ment by the Communists, now report trucks
moving south along a section of Route 23
just north of Tchepone which has been
closed since the rains last spring. (See
map.)
The boycott of today's election by
disgruntled southerners has been broadly
effective. This action has sharpened
rivalries between regional and tribal
interests buffeting Nigeria's fragile
federation (see map) and could over the
long run lead to its breakup. While
few political figures really want this,
the country is in for a period of insta-
bility which will muffle its moderate
voice in African councils.
Nasir has been seeking a scapegoat
for Egypt's sorry economic situation and
may now have fastened on Premier Ali
Sabri. /
Although the situation is
muddy, we see no sign that Nasir is los-
ing control of the instruments of power
in Egypt. Nasir, meantime, has taken a
step back from his challenge to the US
with the publication of a conciliatory
article in a leading Cairo paper.
