DAILY BRIEF

Paris is out to torpedo the US-sup-
ported proposal to give the World Bank
a coordinating role in African develop-
ment aid.
French economic officials have
flatly stated that Paris sees no merit
in the proposals. This attitude prob-
ably will not kill off preparatory dis-
cussions with other Common Market coun-
tries, but may ultimately cause them to
shy away from effective support of the
idea.

4. Nigeria
5. North Vietnam
6. Communist China
A very loose federation is the
likely outcome of the constitutional
talks under way this week in Lagos.
The key to North Vietnam's attitude
toward the war is still Ho Chi Minh.
The mammoth Red Guard rally in
Peking yesterday featured a call by Lin
Piao for continued action by the guards
against opponents in local party commit-
tees throughout the country. There was
no hint of any let up but Chou En-lai
urged the youthful militants to stay
away from the farms and the factories.
The notes struck by Lin and Chou
suggest concern in Peking over the dis-
ruptive effect of rampaging Red Guards
on economic production. The ?present
leadership seems to be trying to redi-
rect their energies against the "main
targets," its enemies among the party
machine bureaucrats.
