1. Supporters of Eafael Calderon Guardia, leader of the recent counter-revolution
against Costa Rica, continue to talk of opening a new front in the Los Chiles
area of Costa Rica. An attack in this sector is considered logical, inasmuch

itApgation efforts on the Penas Plancas sector,
2,, there are still many Nicaraguan Guardia Nacional per-
sonnel in Los Chiles and vicinity, wearing civilian clothes.
3. Rafael Angel Calderon Guardia came to Diriamba, r'icaragua,
during the week of 9 to 14 January 1949 and spent one night at the Hotel
Majestic t F ffering from malaria. The next day he returned
