DAILY BRIEF
15 JUNE 1965
1. South Vietnam
2. North Vietnam
The generals may drop their plan to
make General Ky the chief of the proposed
executive council.
Quat's secretary of state, But Diem,
told Ambassador Taylor today that Ky may
be "talked out" of it. He says the cool
reception Taylor and Ambassador Johnson
gave to the idea was partly responsible.
Vice Premier Tran Van Do, a possible
substitute for Ky, says Ky is himself hav-
ing second thoughts. Do says Ky might
retain his present title of "Commissioner
in charge of directing the executive
branch," however, and oversee a civilian
premier and his cabinet.
The Catholics are voicing their con-
cern over the possibility of a military
regime. One priest has told the US Em-
bassy that there will be trouble if a mil-50X1
itary dictatorship is formed.
Clearing and evacuation operations
are continuing in the Dong Xoai area of
Phuoc Long Province but no ground con-
tact with the Viet Cong has been reported.

Nasir has apparently decided to ac-
cept at least a temporary military stale-
mate in Yemen.
Egypt's top military man in Yemen
says that a military solution has been
ruled out and the Yemeni problem must
be settled by political means. He has
told US Embassy officers in Yemen that
Egyptian troops are being pulled out of
forward areas and concentrated in major
population centers to await political de-
velopments.
Nasir, Faysal, and Yemeni Prime
Minister Numan are to meet in Algiers
this month to discuss a Saudi proposal
for a settlement. Details of the pro-
posal have not yet been revealed.
There has been a new outbreak of
fighting in the Lake Tanganyika area.

Rebel forces fired on US paratroops
in Santo Domingo this morning using auto-
matic weapons and mortars. The para-
troopers returned the fire, and the ex-
changes continued into the afternoon.
The details are not all in, but the
action has the earmarks of a rebel provo-
cation. Shortly after the first shots
were fired, the rebel radio was on the
air charging that the US was attacking
and killing children.
The rebel behavior is in marked con-
trast to yesterday when a rebel commander
apologized for firing on the Brazilian
contingent.
The Imbert radio late this afternoon
announced that loyalist forces were ad-
vancing on the rebel zone in the capital
and would wipe the rebels out in a few
hours. This may be no more than another
move in the war of nerves. However,
loyalist generals have been chafing under
existing restrictions on their activities
and may feel that today's events give
them an opening.
'President Frei has reversed his gov-
ernment's earlier decision to host.the
hemisphere meeting on "Solidarity with
Cuba." Frei told Ambassador Dungan he
was annoyed when his interior minister
granted permission last week. The Com-
munist-oriented group was previously
banned from .holding its session in Uru-
guay,
The Soviets are flooding Brazilian
college campuses with high-quality, low-
cost technical books.
The Russian texts, covering a wide
range of subjects translated into Eng-
lish and French, are sold at "giveaway"
prices and dominate sales at several in-
stitutions. In at least one technological
institute, the Soviets provide the only
English-language materials available.
