1. USSR - Sputnik XIX
2. Indonesia
50X1
?We are fairly sure that the satel-
lite launched by the Soviets Saturday,
though unmanned, is part of their manned
space flight program. Indications are
they will attempt to recover it on Fri-
day and that their next manned space
flight will occur shortly thereafter.
50X1
a. Barring an unexpected last-
minute hitch, it looks as though Ambas-
sador Bunker's long efforts will meet
with success. Subandrio has agreed,
subject to likely approval from Su-
karno, to I May 1963 as the date on
which UN administration over West New
Guinea will be turned over to Indo-
nesia. We expect the Dutch will go
along as well. An arrangement for fly-
ing the Indonesian flag alongside the
UN flag beginning on 1 January will
probably meet Sukarno's need for .some
to crow about during next month's
national day.

3. Algeria
4. India-China
a. We place little confidence in
the confused and often conflicting re-
porting coming out of Algeria this weekend.
b. Ben Bella apparently has 50X1
chosen to back down a bit rather than
risk overplaying his hand by forcing
his way into Algiers. With his forcesanvi
short on supplies and not eager for a
fight, he is still trying to talk his
way in.
India will continue its policy of
occupying border areas claimed but not
actually held by the Chinese despite 50X1
the recent rash of incidents in the
Ladakh area./
New Delhi has publicly denied
reports that Khrushchev sent a let-
ter to Nehru urging that the border
question be settled.

NOTES
A. the Shah's current efforts to mediate
the Pakistan-Afghanistan dispute are going very,welI.
B. Souphannouvong, still evasive about releasing US prisoners, may
attempt to trade them for a US pledge to refrain from supplying
the Meos. He has indicated only that an effort is being made
and we might expect some action by the end of the week.
C. The Dominican Republic's governing seven-man Council of State
is split and may fall apart. It has been weakened and rendered
largely ineffectual by the personal ambitions of several members
who, we suspect, would just as soon it failed so they could
succeed it in power.
THE DIRECTOR OF CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE
