In its 50X1
most recent public declarations, Hanoi
has insisted that the US would have to
withdraw before any "settlement" could
be reached.
The Viet Cong continue to with-
hold their main-force units from action.
The Peruvians are alert for
trouble along the border with Ecuador.
There have been reports that
Ecuador might seek to provoke border
incidents before next month's OAS ? meet-
ing in an effort to draw attention to
its case for border revision.

The situation in the disputed
?Kutch marshes has become more ominous.
Pakistan extended the front last
Wednesday by attacking Indian positions
some 20 miles east of the scene of ear-
lier clashes. (See Map) In addition,
artillery, duels have been growing in
intensity since last Sunday.
Each side has some 4,000 troops
in the area. Both are deploying ad-
ditional forces.
The chief of the Indian Army
claimed that Pakistan used US-built
tanks in the Wednesday attacks. He is
apparently hoping that international
restraints will be applied on the Pak-
istanis so that popular Indian pressures
on him to reply in kind will be eased.
If US tanks were used, they were
supplied by the US under MAP.
Bonn will be keeping an anxious
eye on the progress of Gromyko's visit
to France next week. Erhard and his
government are already concerned over
what they see as a dangerous De Gaulle
flirtation with Moscow.
The Germans are also nervous about
the French attitude on other subjects
of particular interest to Bonn, such
as European political integration.

In a rambling speech today 50X1
Sihanouk said he did not want Thailand,
South Vietnam or the US to take part.
He would restrict the participants to the
eight nations that signed the 1954
Geneva agreements. His foreign minister
explained that the reference to the US
was based on Sihanouk's belief that the
US did not want to attend, but that US
participation was not "ruled out."
