The Security Situation in Uru ua
Situation Report Number 24)
1. No new information has been received that
would change the conclusions reached in Special Na-
tional Intelligence Estimate 98-67, SECURITY CONDI-
TIONS IN URUGUAY, 23 March 1967.
2, The Communist Party of Uruguay's anti-
Summit propaganda campaign is scheduled to go into
high gear on 11 April, The Communists are not
sanguine about their chances of organizing a suc-
cessful general strike in the Punta del Este area.
However, they are more hopeful for success in
Montevideo where, so far, unions representing
nearly 70,000 workers have announced strike sup-
port. The Party apparently has picked 12 April
for the general strike and 14 April for their ma-
jor mass demonstration.
3. Elsewhere, the Communist Party of Chile
(PCCh) is considering greeting Venezuelan Presi-
dent Leoni with protest strikes, propaganda, and
demonstrations when he visits Chile on 10 April
en route to Punta del Este.
if President o nson s.ou
visit Chile the Communists probably would adopt
protest measures similar to those being planned
in Uruguay,
