Cuba h0 we note that a government-backed Algiers daily late last week began putting out the line that the US had adopted a "realistic policy" toward Cuba and has given up the idea of intervention.

Cuba wants to retain good relations with Bolivia because of Bolivia's poorly guarded borders with five countries. This strengthens our suspicions that Cuba is directing pro-Castro activity outside as well as inside Bolivia. 3. Haiti-Dominican a. President Bosch is making Republic hay over the Haitian back-down. b. The concession has removed the most immediate issue, but in present circumstances, another one will surely arise. Bosch will prob- hbly continue to build up troop strength along the border and try to maneuver Duvalier's downfall.

Laos c. Haitian armed forces are on a full alert. The Haitians yesterday managed to arm and get a propfighter airborne. Several Haitian coast guard officers and NCO's reportedly deserted and crossed over to take asylum in the Dominican Republic. d. Yesterday, Haiti's consul in Santo Domingo gained asylum fol- lowing the closure of his office, and, in New York, Duvalier's permanent representative to the UN told Ambas- sador Stevenson that he wants to re- sign.

The Pathet Lao have already branded any attempt to station the ICC in the Plaine des Jarres as "con- trary to the Geneva accords," and we expect they will now be even more troublesome. Their propaganda has turned to writing Souvanna off as a tool of the "US-Phoumist reactionaries." e. Souvanna yesterday issued the statement which we had hoped would refute Soviet charges against us. It was typical Souvanna equivocation. He blamed nobody for anything, merely defended the neutralist role he is trying to play.
