2. Laos
3. Congo

The generals now apparentlybe-
lieve that Khanh will not try to seize
power, at least for the present. The
possibility of an early move by the var-
ious anti-Khanh factions has also faded,
Generals Phoumi and Siho are still
at large, but there is no sign yet that
they have mustered support for military
action against Vientiane. The Commu-
nists also remain relatively quiet.
TshombO's economic talks in Brus-
sels have gone well. The Belgians are
hopeful that a settlement will be reached
by Sunday. (
Paris is tightening its procedures
on foreign investments in France. The
finance minister is personally handling
all investment applications

The USSR, which recently purchased
750,000 tons of wheat for Cuba and East-
ern Europe, has just concluded contracts
with Australia and Canada for 1.1 mil-
lion tons for its own consumption. The
Soviet cash outlay for this grain ex-
ceeds $100 million. The cost of the
emergency purchases in late 1963 and
early 1964 was about $800 million.
