A flurry of unsigned and unattributed
antigovernment pamphlets has again ap-
peared in Port-au-Prince and environs,
and the government has made them the ex-
cuse for many arrests, mostly of peasants.
This sort of thing has happened before,
accompanied--as now--by rumors that the
Communists are responsible.
Ambassador Bunker, after the first
session of the Organization of American
States Committee of Three with the Caamano
group, repeated his impression last night
that the rebels do not yet realize how
weak their position is. Bunker thinks
their hope for further UN intervention is
largely responsible for their continued
intransigence.
The source of the apparent mortar
rounds which landed in the rebel zone last
night, resulting in several casualties,
still has not been determined. Prelimi-
nary examination of one shell fragment in-
dicates that it was not of US manufacture.
Nonetheless, the rebels and their inter-
national supporters are expected to try to
exploit the incident with the UN and the
press.
There was also some rifle fire near
the US Embassy last night. Otherwise the
situation has been quiet, although there
are continuing reports that extremists are
trying to work up new demonstrations in
several outlying towns.
