statement on the subject from the Political Commission of the National Committee of Vanguardia. translation of this statement, which appeared in LA TRIBUNA for September 26th, is enclosed. It squarely the Opposition in seneral and its leader. Otilio ULATE in par ticular as responsible for the cutrage. It exhorts Vanguardia members to refrain from personal reprisals and calls upon the Government to abandon the weak stand it has heretofore maintained and bring the criminals, who, it is stated, are known, to speedy justice. That the most effective reply to this challenge is an intensification of every phase of Party work.
Opposition sources are trying to spread the allegation that the bombing is the work of Vanguardia itself in an effort to create sympathy and bolster its waning strength. There is little or no foundation for such a charge, however. It is the consensus of opinion that the present and other recent bombings are the work of that faction of the Opposition.
which will stop at nothing to achieve its ends. The Embasay is inclined to share this belief.
Fortunately, so far, there has been no major physical injury to persons as a result of the bombings. If they continue, however, someone is going to get hurt some day. If that person should be manuel MORA, serious consequences will result.
Respectfully yours, For the Ambassador: Alex Cohen, American Vice Consul.
