1. Cyprus

to hold a field exercise yesterday,
including air support. The Turkish

an eye on the exercise but to
avoid "unnecessary" firing.

c. The Communists continue
to complain about the US role in
air operations against Pathet Lao
controlled villages. They have
lodged a formal protest with the
Geneva co-chairmen.
d. The UK and the USSR are
still negotiating over Warsaw's pro-
posal for a six-power conference
in Switzerland. The Poles tell us
that they have heard from the
Chinese Communists, who rejected
the six-power idea. The Poles
say they have still another pro-
posal in mind which they hope the
Pathet Lao will buy, but have given
no details.
3. Rumania-USSR a. Relations are unmistakably
getting worse.
b. In the past week or so,
Rumanian commentary of Soviet eco-
nomic policies for the bloc has
become increasingly acerbic.

c. On 13 June, Rumania's lead-
ing economic journal accused Moscow
of authoring regional economic pro-
posals aimed at dismembering Rumania.
The article in question hinted for
the first time at Soviet economic
reprisals.
d. We expect the next round
will bring public broadsides by
leaders on both sides.

NOTES
A. Maphilindo Macapagal has taken the lead in
trying to get the conference moving after the
agreement reached on Sunday regarding Thai
verification procedures. So far, there has
been only one meeting of all three parties,
at the subministerial level.r
IThe Indonesians are apparently making
a great display of impatience over the delay
in convening the summit. Back in Borneo,
Sukarno's raider groups continue to clash with
security forces.

D. Somali Republic Prime Minister Abdirazak's
government--which took office on Sunday--will
probably be easier for the US to get on with
than the last one. Abdirazak will, however,
continue to support Somalia's territorial
claims against Kenya and Ethiopia, although
he may try to keep a lid on Somali guerrilla
activity against these neighbors. There is
little he could do about the $35 million mili-
tary assistance agreement with the USSR con-
cluded by the last government, since his
,countrymen consider it a necessity because
of the Ethiopian menace.
