ON THE BASIS of these de-

The two analysts, Western
diplomats with close ties to
Southeast Asia, requested that;
they not be identified.
The sources said that execu-
tions have almost come to a
halt after a systematic purge
aimed at elimination of all po-;
tential dissidents. The execu-
tions, famine, a malaria epi-
demic, the deliberate breakup
of families, and great move-
ments of people from the cities
to rural areas have led 'West-
ern intelligence organizations to
estimate up to a half million
deaths in a population of around
seven million.
MORE FOOD is now available,
and marriages are being per-
mitted, an indication of in-
creasing stabilization, the
sources said.l
"All the signs of change
should be seen in relative
terms," one of the informantsI
cautioned. "Cambodia is still
a paranoid situation, one of the
strangest on the globe."
The analysts confirmed re-
ports that nothing was known
of the whereabouts of Prince
Norodom Sihanouk, the former1
chief of state whose resignationj
was announced last April. Oust-
ed by a -pro-West coup in 1970,I

The indications of Cambodia's
interest in widening its foreign
contacts include the visit this
week of Ieng Sary, the vice;

fairs, to Romania on his first
official trip to Europe. He was
