Cyprus truce handling eyed by United Nations
The Security Council weighed handing the Cyprus truce issue to UN Secretary General Thant and his representatives with possible brief council meetings. Greece urged UN help to stop Turkish air attacks as UN cease-fire violations continued. Soviet papers tied Western air strikes to aggression but showed no plan to intervene. A separate item noted Madame Tran Le Chi, sister of Madame Ngo Dinh Nhu, works as a Viet Nam language instructor at the JFK Center. The autopsy results in Mississippi remained sealed, and a six-attorney justice office was planned in Washington. Arlen Thiel, 25, remained the subject of a three-state manhunt for a hotel kidnapping affecting six Michigan City workers.

Admiral Moore says advance notice would not have helped Viet Nam strike
Rear Adm. Robert B. Moore said the U S attack on North Vietnam last Wednesday would have succeeded even if a warning letter had been sent three days earlier. He noted Task Force 77's power and questioned whether Hanoi knew of the raid before President Johnson's announcement.
