Ghana: 1. he attempt on Nkrumah's life last week
apparently triggered an extensive internal shake-up
which so far has focused on Ghana's security service
More steps, possibly including
the ar est of one or more ministers, are likely to
follow

lthough there had been some build-up in the
par press against the police even before the latest
assassination attempt, the US Embassy believes the
wholesale purge will shock most Ghanaians. In con-
junction with other recent developments- -notably the
scheduling of a constitutional referendum to convert
Ghana formally into a one-party state--it could prompt
already deeply disaffected moderate elements to plan
action to remove Nkrumah. Included among these
elements are many civil servants and some army
officers and police officials

There is considerable dissension within Roberto's
Con -based government-in-exile. The guerrilla
campaign against the Portuguese in northern Angola
has made little progress and many Africans are ques-
tioning Roberto's competence as a leader. He is frus-
trated at the failure of the African states to support
him either materially or at the UN, as he expected..
He fears that some African nations may renew their
backing of a rival left-wing organizatio\
hile no details of any Communist offers are
avai ble, Roberto claims that arms, ammunition,
and money are involvedo

night's riot is 1 ely to be prolonged
ommunist agitators are attempting to keep
tensions high and reportedly are planning to organ-
ize student rallies this morning. Labor leaders are
using the situati n to trigger a general strike planned
for some month

Politicians with an eye on national elections in
May will be tempted to internationalize Panama's
complaints against the US--Panamanian radio sta-
tions have already quoted President Chiari as stat-
ing he will lodge a protest with the Organization Of
American States and with the United Nation./
ast night's riot developed as an outgrowth of a
disp a between US and Panamanian students over
flying the flags of the two nations in front of a Canal
Zone high school. Canal Zone police met resistance
when they tried to move the Panamanian students out
of the Zone. The students were joined by otherPn,-
amanians at the border where the violence started/,!

with the Panamanians insisting on this dual display.
Recently the Canal Zone Government extended an
earlier agreement on dual display to include addi-

fly alone. Violence also followed a flag incident in
