USSR: Moscow is keeping alive the question of
a special gathering of the world's Communist parties
designed to reinforce China's isolation.
An editorial in yesterday's Pravda coupled an at-
tack on Peking's "splitting" activities with an account
of the benefits of socialist unity and "collective work. "
The editorial stated that such collective work is "now
becoming an absolute necessity. " It repeated Brezh-
nev's observation at the Bulgarian party congress
earlier this month that "a number of parties are ex-
pressing the opinion that conditions are ripening for
convening a new international conference of Commu-
nist and workers' parties. "
At the Bulgarian meeting it was evident that
Brezhnev's statement, which echoed the opening
speech by Bulgarian party leader Zhivkov, did not sit
well with all of the more than 70 parties represented.
The Rumanian party chief, Ceausescu, responded by
urging that nothing be done to add to the disunity of
the movement. Several other representatives also
reacted negatively. The issue may be aired again at
the Hungarian party congress opening next week.
Any special meeting of the world's Communist
parties would necessarily take an anti-Chinese turn,
which would probably preclude attendance by the Ru-
manians and other independent-minded parties. So-
viet insistence on an early conference might also
strain Moscow's relations with some of the more pro-
Soviet parties.
The prospects for an early large-scale gathering
thus appear slight, and Moscow has not committed its
prestige to such a meeting. Nevertheless, the Soviets
seem determined to maintain pressure on the reluc-
tant minority.

Jordan-Egypt-Syria: Egyptian and Syrian propa-
ganda media are taking advantage of continuing unrest
in Jordan to encourage uprisings against King Husayn.
Jordanian authorities have been able, thus far, to
maintain control by vigorous action against antiregime
demonstrators. There have been almost daily demon-
strations in Nablus, a cent chronic unrest in Pal-
estinian west Jordan where, 25X1
two battalions of troops were required to put
own a riot on 21 November.
A broadcast from Cairo featured a petition by
Nablus town notables requesting that the Jordanian
Government cooperate with the Egyptian-oriented Pal-
estine Liberation Organization in fortifying border vil-
lages and in arming the inhabitants. The broadcast
demanded that the government cease interfering with
terrorist operations against Israel. The radio claimed
that Jordanian sentiment foreshadows "a popular revo-
lution. "
The Cairo and Damascus press is also focusing on
the "revolt" in Jordan. Cairo is attacking Husayn as a
"reactionary ally of Israel, " and claims that a group
of Jordanian officers is planning to establish a republic
in Jordan, which would be named Palestine.
