The attempted assassination of Sukarno has all the look of an “operation” by the Central Intelligence Agency: everyone got killed except the appointed victim.

In a speech defending his acceptance of the recent Kremlin-dictated manifesto of the Communist nations, Premier Wladyslaw Gomulka sharply attacked “Western capitalists, press organs and imperialist monopolist circles” for trying to use credits granted to Poland as a wedge for altering Polish policy.
