Cypriot leader under UN arms supervision dispute
Cyprus President Makarios reportedly moved thousands of Czech guns under UN supervision while seeking new arms from Syria. Greek officials allege arms were bought secretly by Makarios aided by Vassos Lysiadis, with 1,500 men trained for pro Makarios factions. Greece pressed Makarios to surrender weapons and reshuffle cabinet to gain influence.

Hussein proposal downed by mayor Kollek in Chicago
