DAILY BRIEF
17 DECEMBER 1964
1. British Guiana
2. Panama
. Indonesia
4. Yemen
5. Trinidad
Ex-premier Jagan's party plans to
hold countrywide meetings next Sunday
to protest the election results. Pre-
mier Burnham presumably will try to
keep his own followers inline, but ra-
cial feeling is running high. Hotheads
on both sides are spoiling for a fight.
President Robles seems to be on
the verge of deciding to permit limited
public observance of the anniversary
of the riots last January 9. His min-
isters are drafting a decree calling
for national mourning and half-masting
US and Panamanian flags./
Sukarno's dissolution of the anti-
Communist Sukarnoist Party yesterday
may be the prelude to further anti-US
measures, probably against the US Infor-
mation Service. An intensive Communist
Party campaign against the Sukarnoist
movement preceded Sukarno's sudden de-
cision to pull the rug from under it.
Negotiations between the royalists
and republicans are still stalled by
Saudi-Egyptian disagreement over the
future of Yemen. The Yemeni republican
cabinet has recently resigned in pro-
test against Egyptian control. The
Saudi-backed royalist tribes continue
to give a good account of themselves
against Nasir's troops, which still
total more than 50,000.
Premier Eric Williams says unem-
ployment is in excess of 14 percent.
He has cancelled plans to travel out
of the country during the holidays, a
traditional period for troublemaking
in Trinidad.
