Congo 2. South Vietnam 3. Indonesia 4. Panama Arms assistance to the rebels is already making itself felt. Huong is trying to bring the gen- erals back in line, but so far they re- fuse to retract their decree dissolving the High Council. He feels he may lose their support against the Buddhists, whom he fears more than the military, if he presses them too hard. Buddhist leader Tri Quang says, however, that he has at least temporarily suspended his anti-Huong campaign. ' Sukarno loosed another public at- tack on the Congo rescue mission today, ending with the remark, "To hell with your humanitarianism." USIS operations outside the capital city will probably be prohibited soon. First favorable Panamanian reactions to the US canal announcement are being tempered by a "wait-and-see" attitude. There is apparently some concern about the problems a new canal might create for Panama. Anti-US groups, including the Communists, have been knocked off balance, however, and have not yet re- acted. 50X1 50X1 50X1 50X1 50X1 50X1 50X1 5. Communist China MIG fighters at Phuc Yen airfield 50X1 near Hanoi have increased from 36 to 53, according to recent photographs. 50X1 6. Ghana ? Nkrumah is threatening to expropri- ate British banks in Ghana. They have been resisting his desperate efforts to 7. UAR squeeze exchange out of them to pay Ghana's creditors. Virtually all com- modity shipments to Ghana have been halted, and serious shortages loom.
