NOTES
Sierra Leone: Prime Minister Margai, after
several days of indecision, finally placed under house
arrest eight army officers allegedly involved in coup
plotting uncovered a week ago. At the same time he
announced to the out-going Parliament that he was
abandoning his proposal to set up a one-party state--
a plan that has been strongly resisted by opposition
elements. By appearing to be both firm and con-
ciliatory, Margai has enhanced his party's chances
in the general elections coming up within two months.
Aden: A general strike called for tomorrow is
likely to be marked by violent demonstrations and
more terrorism. The strike was called by the
Egyptian-backed Front for the Liberation of Occu-
pied South Yemen (FLOSY) against the South Arabian
Federation Government. FLOSY will probably try
to paralyze Aden in an attempt to regain ground lost
to a rival anti-British organization which on 19 Janu-
ary called a successful general strike without FLOSY
participation.
Indonesia: The anti-Sukarno resolution passed
yesterday by Parliament paves the way for Congress,
which includes Parliament, to take formal action to
oust Sukarno. Public demands for congressional action
� against Sukarno have been increasing, and early this
week General Nasution, the chairman of Congress,
promised that the demands would be implemented.
The latest move was designed primarily to increase
the pressure on Sukarno to resign before 6 March,
when Congress is scheduled to meet.
