1. Brazil
a. It is all but over with
Goulart. He has fled to his home
ground in Rio Grande do Sul, and
there are a number of unconfirmed
reports that he will soon leave the
country.
b. Before he does, however, he
may have one last go at keeping a
toe hold in his home state, where a
part of the Third Army, by last re-
port, is still loyal to him. He can
also count on the last ditch support
of the leftist Brizola who has spent
the last few days trying hard to
shore up pro-Goulart sentiment in
Rio Grande do Sul.
c. This could take the form of
outright military resistance to the
new authority or creation of guerrilla
pockets.
d.)
/anti-Goulart forces are
moving toward Rio Grande do Sul.
e. Other shreds of Goulart sup-
port remain, especially in Rio and
the Recife area. Trouble could de-
velop in either.

2. Cyprus
f. Rio is calm and the threat
of an effective general strike is
fading as the authorities round up
leftwing labor leaders. Pro-Communist
Governor Arraes in Recife has been
ousted and is under rest aict.
g. Once Goulart left Brasilia,
the Brazilian legislature declared
the presidential office vacated and
named Ranieri Mazzilli acting presi-
dent. Mazzilli, leader of the Chamber
of Deputies, is considered a moderate,
pro-Western Conservative. He has
little popular appeal.
h. He will, under the Brazilian
constitution, hold office only. 30
days, by the end of which time the
legislature must elect a successor
to fill out the rest of Goulart's
term, until January 1966.
a. Yesterday's EOKA anniversary
passed without serious incident, al-
though there were sporadic exchanges
of fire.
b. The Greek Cypriots used the
occasion for a show of force, turning
out some 3,000 smartly uniformed and
well-armed troops.

c. Their weapons included a
number of the newest types of Czech
made automatic weapons and Soviet
mortars. These bloc arms probably
arrived in Cyprus in consignments
from the UAR.
d. Tensions are building up
again near Ktima in western Cyprus
and just north of Nicosia along the
Kyrenia road.
f. Makarios and the Greek Cyp-
riots are, however, demanding that
all roads be opened, implying that
if the UN cannot get the job done the
Greek Cypriots will do it.
g. Turkey has agreed to a Greek
request to open talks on a new agree-
ment to replace the 1930 treaty re-
cently abrogated by Ankara.

3. UAR-UK-US
a. A close associate of Nasir
has assured Embassy Carlo that radio
attacks on the US and its bases in
Libya or elsewhere will cease.
We are not sure how long
Nasir will be able to restrain him-
self on this score, but two recent
Cairo statements made no mention of
Wheelus while demanding that all
British bases in the Arab world be
liquidated.
c. In fact, Cairo's attacks on
"perfidious Albion" have reached new
peaks of shrillness following Satur-
day's retaliatory attack by British
planes on a Yemeni fort.
d. The other Arab states have
joined this anti-British chorus. They
have warned Britain that all may have
to "reconsider" their relations in
view of this aggression. The UN
Security Council meets on the raid
this morning.
e. However shrill the propaganda,
the Egyptians seem to have gotten
London's point, that further incursions
from Yemen into the South Arabian
Federation will have "serious conse-
quences."

4, Laos
g.
Further incidents are
possible as the Egyptians
will continue their efforts to halt
the flow of arms to Yemeni royalists
from the south.
a. Souvanna Phouma leaves Laos
today for a ten-day visit to Peiping
and Hanoi--yet another of his periodic
trips abroad to drum up support for
his unsteady coalition.
b. His departure will delay a
meeting of the three factions in the
Plaine des Jarres. The always diffi-
cult security arrangements have been
worked out and a meeting could take
place on his return next week.
? c. Also postponed by the trip
is a final decision on Souvanna's
threat to pull his neutralists out
of Vientiane. Souvanna has been on
the outs recently with Phoumi, who,
the premier charges, is using the
coalition as a front for all sorts of
unsettling activities.

NOTES
B. International Oil Teheran has decided to accept the
oil companies' latest offer, thus opening a large, if
not fatal, breach in the Organization of Petroleum Ex-
porting Countries. The Shah has asked us to do what
we can to minimize the repercussions that are sure to
come from the other OPEC states once the news is out.
He also wants assurances from the companies that, if
any other producing country gets a better deal at a
later. date, Iran will get the same.
C. British Guiana Governor Luyt says he will override
any opposition from Jagan to a general election under
the proportional representation system decreed by Lon-
don last year. Jagan does not like this very much,
since such elections are likely to turn him out of of-
fice.
D. Ethiopia-Somalia Only minor skirmishing has disturbed
the Ogaden border since the most recent of the Somali
Ethiopian ceasefires went into effect yesterday morning.

G. Haiti In Port-au-Prince today Duvalier, to the surprise
or one, has declared himself Haiti's president for
life. He said he considered himself the kind of man the
country can only produce once every 50 or 75 years.
