*Ghana-Guinea: Ghana's detention of the Guinean
delegation en route to the OAU ministerial council
continues to disturb the international atmosphere in
Africa.
The military government is firmly resolved not
to release the Guineans until some of its own griev-
ances are satisfied, and it appears to have strong
civilian support for its position. Moreover, Accra
believes that many African leaders secretly support
its action and, on the whole, it feels pleased with the
attention it has attracted. A mediation effort by Ethi-
opia was quickly rebuffed.
The OAU meeting, which opened yesterday, has
already been thrown into turmoil by the Guinea-Ghana
dispute. The council appointed a three-nation mission
to try to resolve the conflict, but two of the prospec-
tive members, Liberia and Tanzania, withdrew almost
immediately. A reconstituted mission composed of
Sierra Leone, Congo (Kinshasa), and Kenya is expected
to depart soon for Accra and Conakry.
Within Guinea, reaction to the delegation's deten-
tion led to a serious outburst of anti-Americanism.
Following a day of harassment by mobs, the embassy
now believes the worst may be over. President Tours
has offered increased police protection and one or two
influential moderate leaders are expected home from
abroad shortly. Nevertheless, the situation in Conakry
remains tense at the start of today's national army
25X1 holiday.

Dominican R aublic: Leftist militants have gained
at least temporary control of the Dominican Revolu-
tionary Party (PRD).
Juan Bosch resigned as leader of the PRD at a
convention last weekend. The new provisional secre-
tary general is Jose Francisco Pena Gomez, leader
of the party's youth wing, who has recently been at-
tacking the Balaguer government bitterly. Individuals
favoring militant opposition to the government were
also elected to the PRD's provisional executive com-
mittee.
Pena and his young nationalistic supporters ad-
vocate "democratic socialism" and may adopt tactics
such as political strikes. Adoption of militant tactics
would increase the likelihood of cooperation in some
areas between the PRD and Communist groups.
Bosch seems likely to withdraw temporarily from
party activities, but still retains some influence in his
new post as party adviser. Some moderate PRD leaders
are threatening to resign. The new leadership is to
remain in office until a party reorganization is com-
pleted and a national convention he d some time next
year. F777 I

~ ~eria: Secessionist Pressures have abated
somewhat in the East and Eastern leaders have re-
opened an informal dialogue with the leaders of other
parts of the country. Eastern military governor
0jukwu, who had been pressing hard for an early
resolution of the constitutional stalemate, now says
he expects it to continue for several months. Benin

being mentioned by Easterners and others as a pos-
