Cyprus Becomes A Powder Keg NICOSIA, Cyprus UPI — Armed Greek Cypriots surrounded rival Turkish Cypriots in a school area of the tinderbox town of Polis today, creating the danger of a new clash between the warring factions. There was no immediate indication of how rrv-ny Turks were trapped in the school and surrounding vicinity. Officials reporting the encirclement by the Greeks said “tension is high.’’ They said violence was possible at any time. It was the second time this week that the Polis school has

been a focal point of communal friction. More than 700 Turkish Cypriots took refuge there earlier in the week after GreelcTurkish fighting swept the town in the tense northwest 50 miles west cf Nicosia. Fears of a major outbreak of violence in the northwest grew with reports that President Archbishop Makarios no longer can control the armed Greek Cypriot bands in the countryside. The diplomatic reports said irregular Greek Cypriot troops in the rugged Polis region were operating against Turkish Cypriots independently of government restraints imposed from Nicosia.

The Montana Democrat made it clear that the leadership expected to dispose of the measure before the Senate wades into its long civil rights

battle.

Mansfield said, however, that if action is not completed on the farm bill before the tax cut bill comes from the House on Tuesday, it might be set aside to permit a vote on the revenue measure. This might involve only a few hours.
