Gunfire Again Rocks Managua MANAGUA, Nicaragua UPI —Gunfire rattled in the streets of Managua Wednesday night and early today after police set up road blocks at entrances to the city and searched cars and occupants. At least three persons were reported injured when police broke up anti-government demonstrations with gunfire and tear gas. The searches were apparently ordered to keep opponents of the government out of the capital in a bid to prevent a repetition of violence early this week which brought the nation perilously close to civil war. Forty persons were reported killed and at least 160 injured in pitched street battles between rebels and government troops Sunday and Monday. The Senate meanwhile passed a bill restricting freedom of press and opinion only a day after the government had closed three radio stations and Nicaragua’s major opposition newspaper, La Prensa.

FBI Director Is Called By Salons WASHINGTON UPI—President Johnson’s uphill campaign to improve relations with Eastern Europe while fighting communism in Vietnam was moving again in the Senate today with fresh momentum. Senate Democratic leader Mike Mansfield took a vanguard stand with the administration, warning the Senate not to let “resentment” over Vietnam blind it to possibilities for strengthening peaceful ties with Iron Curtain countries. But a key to how the early stage of Johnson’s struggle will go may lie with another administration official — FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover. The first administration project at stake in the 90th Congress is the pending consular treaty with Russia, and Hoover has been asked to spell out for a second time his views — if any — on the pact.

U.S. Has Halted Cong Buildup WASHINGTON UPI — Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara says the allied military effort in Vietnam has virtually halted the “buildup of Viet Cong forces” in the South. McNamara told Congress, in testimony made public Wednesday, that the “Viet Cong appeared to have lost as many men as they were able to infiltrate from North Vietnam and recruit in South Vietnam” during the last six months of 1966. The Pentagon chief was to continue his testimony today at a closed session of the Senate Armed Services Committee and defense appropriations subcommittee. McNamara told the senators enemy forces in South Vietnam now total 275,000 men, a net gain of only about 25,000 in the past year.
