Laos: [New Communist probes in the Laotian
panhandle may be in the offing j
Increased enemy activity in an area southeast
of Ma axay, reportedly involving substantial num-
bers of North Vietnamese troops, may signal in-
creased pressure against government positions
around Thakhek. Some of this activity may be troop
redeployments necessitated by stepped-up govern-
ment air strikes. Reports of substantial truck move-
ments on Route 12 over the past two weeks and con-
tinuing reports of enemy efforts to build access
roads to advanced positions suggest that some build-
up is under way, however.]
[Farther south, there are indications of 4n enemy
build-up between Saravane and Pakse to the southwest.
No significant attacks have been launched thus far, but
government positions in this area have been subject to
increasing harassment in recent weeks.]
These ground movements are coincident with a
spate of recent Pathet Lao exhortations calling for
vigorous "countermeasures to aggression. " Commu-
nist statements continue to allege that the US is plan-
ning to invade the Laotian corridor.

Greece: The chances of survival of the palace-
supported Stephanopoulos government appear to have
worsened since Parliament reconvened last week.
The government, with a parliamentary majority
of two, is in serious trouble over its pending tax bill.
In the committee stage last week, the bill failed be-
cause of the abstention of deputies from the conserva-
tive National Radical Union (ERE) and the Progressive
Party, both of which support Stephanopoulos. The in-
come tax portion of the bill is opposed by the leader
of the Progressives and so doomed for defeat.
In addition, the ERE leader has supported ex-
treme leftist criticism of King Constantine's New
Year's. message, and a cabinet member resigned last
week for personal reasons. Stephanopoulos' foreign
and finance ministers are also leading a factional fight
within their own Liberal Democratic Center party.
Some important elements in the government may now,
be willing to consider a reconciliation with ex-premier
Papandreou, the nemesis of the palace, should
Stephanopoulos fall.

NOTES.
Cyprus: Archbishop Makarios' talks in Athens
with Greek officials beginning today may signal a
new diplomatic effort to resolve the island's status.
Greece apparently will propose three procedural
courses: direct talks between Makarios and the
Turkish Cypriots, a renewal of UN mediation ef -
forts, and the resumption of talks between Athens
and Ankara. Although Makarios might accept any
of these courses, there is still wide disagreement
over the substance of any possible solutiLn.F--
*Dominican Republic: ~he military leaders con-
tinue their ad Lmant refusal to accept new assign-
ments, and sentiment seems to be mounting in the
armed services to move against Garcia Godoy. The
President has expressed a willingness to make at
least some concessions to the service chiefs, but
mistrust and bitterness seem to be inhibiting real-
istic negotiations. During the next several days the
left will probably press for the quick ouster of the
chiefs, and there are tentative indications that Juan
Bosch will threaten to call a general strike over the
issue]
