...received the lion's share ($2.6 billion) of Food for Peace commodities, last year took 15% of the entire U.S. wheat crop-and still faces famine (see THE WORLD). Ghana had a ruder awakening. Two days after the State Department lodged a strong protest over a new virulently anti-American book by Ghana's President Kwame Nkrumah, the U.S. declined his government's request for $129 million worth of wheat, rice and dried milk. Faced with ever dwindling reserves and ever increasing demand, the Administration made clear that The Redeemer had better concentrate on feeding his people...

Bhutto, an intimate friend of Indonesia's slick, pro-Peking Foreign Minister Subandrio, loses no opportunity to sneer at the U.S. effort in Viet Nam. Gauhar takes a similar tack, and has the means to propagate it: direct orders go out daily from his office to the Pakistan press, spelling out how stories-and headlines-should...
...hearts," as well as for Indonesia and other Moslem nations. The U.S. understandably received no public praise from Ayub for its role in the ceasefire, though Ayub quickly called President Johnson by phone to advise L.B.J. of Pakistan's acceptance of the ceasefire. Nothing was said of the anti-American demonstrations in Karachi and Lahore the day before the ceasefire, in which mobs smashed U.S. libraries and embassy windows...
