Prosident Truman's speech on aid to Greece and Turkey has
created sensation locally. So far not only has no press
comment appeared but no news articles have been published.
Nevertheless everyone seems well informed. Opposition
circles are naturally delighted and encouraged. I have
yet had no reactions from official circles. Diplomats
outside of Soviet bloc are deeply pleased since they feel
that it is decisive step in stopping further Soviet en-
croschments. Greek Minister celled to extend felicitations
Turkish Counselor equally delighted. French Ambassador
commented that move threatened to saw off long limb that
Tito and company had gotten selves out on and pointed out
how much wiser Gzechoslovakie had been in not getting
self out on limb. Ambassador did not think however that
it would produce split in government but rather drive it
together and he sew no immediate prospect of successful
opposition.
