1033. From Johnson.

[text not declassified] correspondent has informed me in confidence he has learned that CHICOMS here have told Yugoslav UNESCO rep now in Geneva that they are very unhappy with Soviet maneuvers in Middle East as it is spoiling atmosphere for working out their plans in FE. CHICOMS are supposed to have so informed Soviets.

[text not declassified] who is reliable believes story is correct. My recollection is not certain as to whether Yugoslav was rep UNESCO or other such UN organization.
