DAILY BRIEF
I. THE COMMUNIST BLOC
Poland: The riot on 30 May in the town of Zielona Gora,
the o'u h_'*clash in Poland between. local authorities and Cath=
olics over religious matters since 27 April, once again reflects
the. deep- hostility of the predominantly Catholic populace toward
.the Communist regime. The prevailing. mood among the masses
in Poland, who see no prospect for improvement of either polit-
ical or economic conditions, is one of disillusion and discontent.
In this -touchy situation, local grievances lead easily to sporadic
outbreaks. of violence. (Page 1)

Polish Police Put Down Riot Caused by Dispute Over
Religious Question
Polish police. used clubs and tear gas to put down a riot
involving an estimated 5,000 persons on 30 May at Zielona Gora,
a. textile= manufacturing. town of approximately 46,000 about 35
miles from the East German border. Reinforcements includ-
ing internal security troops were summoned from Poznan, more
than 60 miles away.
Many persons reportedly were injured in the street fighting,
and an undisclosed number were arrested. The disturbance was
sparked by a dispute between local government authorities and
Roman Catholics over the use of a church building owned before
World War II by the German Evangelical Church. The Zielona
Gora riot is the fourth such local. clash in Poland between police
and Catholics over religious matters since 27 April.
Popular. morale. in Poland has deteriorated sharply. The masses
see no prospect that the regime, which they consider inept and dis-
organized, will significantly improve either political or economic
conditions. In such a potentially explosive situation, grievances
of a purely local nature ]lead easily to outbreaks of violence, even
though both the Gomulka. regime and the Catholic hierarchy recog-
nize that each would be threatened by any disturbance of their un-
easy truce. The recent disorders over religious matters show the
stamina of Catholicism in Poland despite 15 years of Communist

Growing Preelection Violence in Bolivia
The government party's candidates, former President Victor
Paz Estenssoro and leftist labor leader Juan Lechin, are expected
to win the national elections in Bolivia on 5 June. All opposition
elements except the small orthodox and dissident Communist par-
ties are threatening to abstain from voting. The government on
30 May refused the request of the Authentic Nationalist Revolu-
tionary Movement party (PMNRA), a splinter faction of the gov-
ernment party, for a two-week delay, in voting to permit. replace-
ment of the PMNRA ballots burned by followers of Paz Estenssoro.
The. campaigning has been. marked by increasingly frequent
shootings and other disturbances, and new outbreaks are likely on
election day. One incident in late May on the Peruvian frontier re-
sulted in the killing of military commander Alejandro Julio:,, broth-
er of Senate president Ruben Julio, who is a key supporter of the
government party's presidential candidate. Gun fighting in the cen-
tral Cochabamba valley is causing an average of eight deaths daily,
with a reported 68 on 22 May. Other outbreaks have occurred re-
cently in the central mining cit of Oruro and in Villazon on the
Argentine border.
