The local Communist apparatus is continuing ef- forts to undermine police morale and cripple public transport. Communist schools are being, stocked with weapons--iron bars, kni res, bottles, and acid--for use against the police, and greater student participa- tion in public demonstrations is planned. The successful British raid on a leftist union head- quarters on 12 July, which resulted in the arrest of 40 leftist unionists and the seizure of weapons and docu- ments, has caused consider ble concern among other Communist organizations. The Chinese Communists are apparently conducting military activity near the frontier in an effort to intimi- date the British. Several groups of Chinese troops have been observed in the vicinity of the border. Chinese propaganda commentary, however, remains at a low level. 14 Jul 67 4 25X 25X 25X1 25X1 25X1 25X1 Approved For Release12003105119 . - 0100110001-6 25X1 25X1 Approved For Release 2003/05/19 : CIA-RDP79T00975A010100110001-6 Next 2 Page(s) In Document Exempt Approved For Release 2003/05/19 : CIA-RDP79T00975A010100110001-6 Approved For Release Peru: President Belaunde probably will approve a bill expropriating the International Petroleum Company holdings in Peru. The law, passed by the opposition-dominated Con- gress on 7 July, reaffirms Peru's "complete sover- eignty" over the La Brea y Parinas oil fields in northern Peru and authorizes the President to expropriate com- pany installations, including an oil refinery. The bill provides that alleged back taxes owed by the company to the Peruvian Government should be taken into considera- tion when compensation for the sequestered properties is computed. In raising this long- standing issue, Congress has placed Belaunde in an embarrassing and difficult posi- tion. In a conversation with the US ambassador on 10 July, Belaunde stated categorically that expropria- tion was the last thing he wanted. He is convinced, how- ever, that a veto would be overridden by Congress. 25X1 25X1 14 Jul 67 8 Approved For Release 100110001-6 25X1 Approved For Release 003/05/19 : CIA-RDP79T00975A0 NOTE Cyprus: There seems to be interest in both Athens and Ankara for a solution to the Cyprus dis- pute. This interest and the acrimony between Athens and Nicosia have been the cause of continuing fears in Cyprus that a Greek coup, possibly in conjuction with Greek-Turkish agreement to impose a solution on Makarios, is in the making. Cypriot officials doubt the sincerity of e ens regime and are suspicious of its inten- tionso 25X1 25X1 25X1 14Jul67 9 Approved For Release - 0100110001-6 25X1 T fet Release 2003/05/19: CIA-RDP79T00975A010100110001-6 Top Secret Approved For Release 2003/05/19 : CIA-RDP79T00975A010100110001-6
