' Nicosia, Cyprus U.R) Field
Marshal Sir John Harding, the
new civil governor - and com
mander in chief of Cyprus, is
trying to keep the lid from
blowing off this little island
which Marc Anthony once gave
to Cleopatra.
Makarios III, archbishop of
the Greek Orthodox Church, is
waging a sort of passive holy war
against Harding.
Mufti Mehmet Dana Effendi,
leader of the island's Turks, is
watching Makarios warily.
"Dighenis," the almost le
gendary leader of .the terroristic
Eioka, the national organization
of. Cypriot fighters, is leading
from his hideout the Greek gangs
which are assisting' Britons and
"collaborators" and blowing up
government buildings.
Tangled Situation
It is the most tangled situation
which Cyprus has faced in its
5000-year history.
Britains owns it. Greece wants
it. Turkey says that if Britain
gives it up, Turkey must have it.
Life proceeds fairly normally
in the cities. But there is an at
mosphere of . oppressive fear.
And the atmosphere of near war
is apparent in 'the increasing
numbers of . British troops, the
strong forces of Cypriot-Cyprus-
policemen and the newly organ
ized "special branch" intelli
gence corps which is trying to
root out the terrorists.
It is out in the country that
the atmosphere of Cyprus be
comes really apparent.
I made an inspection trip,
along the winding mountain
roads, into the rocky "bad lands'
in a desert-yellow British Royal
Air Force car.
The Cypriot as the people of
Cyprus are called chauffer
drove at reckless speed.
Well Armed
At his left lounged an RAF
enlisted man, with his rifle be
side him. He wore a tropical
suit. As we passed through
steaming hot villages, I took off
my coat and invited him to do
likewise.
"I really can't," he said mild
ly. He opened his coat to show
the revolver in his shoulder
holster.
Britain is determined to keep
Cyprus because it is becoming
a most important military base,
a base important to the entire
Middle East from Turkey to
Pakistan.
Who am I?
Although I graze like a sheep
nibbling grass close to the
ground, I wash myself cat
fashion, licking my dexterous
five-fingered forepaws and run
ning them through my fur after
each meal. Standing, I can look
over a man's head and may
weigh up to 200 pounds. My
young is born so pink as to seem
half-transparent.
We once lived in bands up to
1,000 but with civilization's com
ing, our herds today seldom ex
ceed 50.
Vegetarians, we feed early
mornings, late evenings and at
night. Some of my 50 or so rel
atives, members of an ancient
order are no bigger than rab
bits, some climb trees and can
leap 40 feet to the ground with
out injury, some live among
rocks and cliffs with the sure
footedness of a chamois, some
prefer swamps, and as for me,
I take kindly to the desert.
My life span is around 15
years. My head is delicately
shaped: a twitching rabbit-like
nose, big soft eyes, a deer-like

neck. A timid creature, my
sight, smell and hearing . stand
me in good stead to detect
enemies afar. The mouse-colored
doe is smaller and slimmer than
the male.
I have four toes on each hind
foot three of them so trivial
they don't count, but the one
toe is tremendously long and
strong and has a huge spur with
a curving razor-sharp tip, dead
ly in combat. My tail often con
stitutes 10 per cent of my weight
and its uses are many: prop,
jumping pole with one blow I
can break a man's leg or a bal
ancing organ.
In running I use my hind legs
and my powerful thick tail and
can leap over a seven-foot ience
with ease, and in a series of 16
foot long broad jumps, make a
top speed of. 25-30 miles an hour.
For a voice, I have a rasping
cough or grunt.
After a 38-40 day gestation,
the tiny bumble-bee sized young
ster, less than an inch long and
sightless, earless, and hind-legless
hitches up into the protec
tive pouch in about 15 minutes,
usually unaided by the mother,
in search of food and shelter
and once in, attaches himself to
the milk gland which swells to
make contact sure for several
weeks' duration. Then, with a i
special organ the mother pumps
milk into the young one's gullet,
drop by drop. In six months, he
is ready to abandon the built
in baby carriage.
