text: Last night Mayang called. He told us that all the Ao members have decided to boycott the meeting of the N.N.C. at (88) Kohima on September 23rd, and not attend. They are all angry with Aliba and his pompous announcements, they are opposed to civil disobedience and they are tired of being dragged along by the Angamis. The Aos are prepared to accept the Governor's agreement, although they are still not happy about Clause 9, and are anxious that a committee should start to work out the details.
