CONFIDENCE VOTE WAS MADE POSSIBLE BY THE ABSTENTION OF SOME

TION OF A "POPULAR LIBERATION ARMY."

6. NOTES:
A. MAPHILINDO: THE LONG?AWAITED SUMMIT MEETING IN
TOKYO HAD NO SOONER GOT UNDERWAY TODAY THAN IT RAN INTO
HEAVY WEATHER. SUKARNO STALKED OUT OF THE CONFERENCE ROOM
AFTER THE TUNKU INSISTED THAT INDONESIAN GUERRILLAS GET OUT
OF MALAYSIA WITHIN FOUR WEEKS. HE RETURNED AFTER TWO HOURS,
EXPLAINING THAT HE HAD HAD TO KEEP A "BROADCAST DATE."
THE AUGERIES ARE NOT HOPEFUL, HOWEVER.
B. ARGENTINA: FOR THE MOMENT AT LEAST, THE ARMED
FORCES ARE MAINTAINING A HANDS?OFF POLICY TOWARD THE
CURRENT LABOR AGITATION DESPITE THE ATTEMPTED BOMBING OF AN
ARMY OFFICE
THE MILITARY SAYS IT WILL ACT ONLY IF
ORDERED TO BY PRESIDENT ILLIA.
C. PANAMA: BY ALL APPEARANCES ROBLES INTENDS TO
FOLLOW A HIGHLY NATIONALISTIC LINE IN DEALING WITH THE US
AND THE CANAL PROBLEM. FOR ONE THING, HE WILL CONTINUE
ULTRANATIONALISTS LIKE ILLUECA2 MORENO, AND BOYD IN THEIR
PRESENT JOBS.
