1. Bolivia
a. The miners, professing
alarm at government troop moves near
the mine area
negotiations are not
possible in these circumstances.
They have also rejected a plea from
their jailed union leaders to free
the hostages without conditions.
b. Vice President Lechin on a
surprise visit to La Paz yesterday
offered to resign if President Paz
would then release the union leaders.
Paz, says the press, turned this down
and countered With an offer to with-
draw government forces if the hos-
tages were turned loose.
c. As time goes on, pressure
is building up on Paz to use govern-
ment forces, which are ready./
d. For their part the miners
have called for a "general mobiliza-
tion." Their militia has been active
in guarding the approaches to the
Catavi-Siglo complex.

2. Cyprus
3. USSR
e. There is good reason to
believe that Lechin actually has
little control over the local miners'
union, and that in turn the local
unions have little control over the
women who are guarding the hostages.
a. Top Greek officials have
assured the Makarios government that
armed force from Greece would be
quickly committed if Turkey should
intervene militarily at any point
in the Cypriot constitutional crisis.
b. This stand will embolden
Makarios to make unilateral changes
in the constitution.
c. The Turkish Cypriots have
said they would resist any such
changes, and officials in Ankara
say that Turkey is prepared to "go
the limit" to support them.

NOTES
A. Cambodia Sihanouk continues to careen along his
anti-American way. Yesterday he terminated as
"fruitless" talks on the orderly liquidation of the
US aid program and demanded that all AID,. MAAG and
USIS personnel be out of the country by 15 January.
B. Th iland Prime Minister Thanom and his closest
collaborator Praphat have clearly emerged from the
first round of the post-Sarit power struggle as the
dominant figures. General Chitti has been shunted
aside for the moment, but we feel that he is still
a man to be reckoned with.
C. Italy We think that Moro will get a vote of con-
fidence next week despite threatened defections
from the ranks of both the Christian Democrats and
the Nenni Socialists. If these defections do take
place, however, they will raise doubts as to the
long-term prospects of Moro's "opening to the left."

E. Venezuela Betancourt became incensed when informed
of the US decision to recognize Honduras and the
Dominican Republic. He said he would have to issue
a public statement criticizing this move.
F. USSR-Ghana Some 40,000 tons of Soviet-supplied
cement are sitting in the open in imminent danger
of spoilingi
/This looks very much like a repeat of the
1956 Soviet aid debacle in Burma when large quanti-
ties of bloc cement were left to harden at dockside
in Rangoon.
G. UAR -Yemen
Nasir s troop strength in Yemen
has been reduced
H. Venezuela-US the Castro-
supported terrorists have decided to kidnap another
official of the US embassy in Caracas before Christ-
mas.
