Yemeni situation,
1- I learn that a special emissary of the imam called
Ahmed Taber ?Rajab is proceeding to Egypt immediately,
accompanied by All Muhammad Jebali and carrying secret letter
to King parouk asking him to select ‘♦at any salary* the best
possible man to be the Imam's Foreign Minister, This means
supersession of Ragheb Bsyo
2, it would be most helpful if a reasonably moderate
wise man is being sent (corrupt group) and I hope it may be
possible for you to drop a hint to that effect, if the
opportunity offers,
3. Ahmed Teher reports that the imam T s position is not
at all strong and that Sanaa ia not too friendly to him.
This in itself ia a good enough reason for the imanfs
