Cuba-USSR a test-ban treaty without the par- ticipation of France, although it will insist on later French adherence to the treaty. By "current situation" we assume he is referring to De Gaulle's frowardness. b. The official repeated that the USSR could accept no more than four on-site inspections. C. "we were never so close to a treaty as now" and said he was convinced one would be signed this time.

The Soviet tourist agency in Moscow is having no luck at all finding takers for its highly pub- licized ten-day all-expense tour, to Cuba via direct TU-114 flight. The price (550 rubles) is heavily sub- sidized, but, even to hardy Russians, obviously not worth it. e. Russian troops are delighted when they can leave Cuba and critical reports from those who have gone home probably have got around fast.

It is near Shihmen air- field about 160 miles southwest of Peiping. b. Of the seven other sites, three are in the area of the Shuang- chengtzu missile test range (two apparently for training), three are in the Peiping area, and one is near Sian. The latter is the only one known to be fully operational. c. but at ? least one, at Shuangchengtzu, was under construction during the first half of last year, quite probably. without Soviet assistance.

Indonesia a, Indonesia plans to construct surface-to-air missile sitesI along the northern approaches to the country--a choice of sites probably dictated by Indonesia's growing campaign against Malaysia.

UAR troops and supplies continue to arrive (there are some 18,000 troops there)/ b. Despite their monopoly of air power and superiority in fire power, we do not credit the Egyptians with the capability to dislodge roy- alists operating in the hills.r c. Heartened by recent minor successes, Badr is also talking of a major offensive, particularly to- ward Sana and Taiz. His capability, however, does not extend beyond sometimes serious and costly harass- ment. - 50X1 50X6 r -r I n ? -r r .

West Germany Adenauer's foreign policy state- ment to the Bundestag yesterday, by playing the Franco-German pact in low key and emphasizing Germany's adherence to the Western alliance, leaves Erhard little, if any, room for maneuver. Indonesia-Philippines The Philippine-Indonesian marriage of convenience to block Malaysia may be sealed by a nonaggression pact. C. Sino-Indian Border Foreign Affairs Secretary R. K. Nehru leaves next week for a two-week tour of East ? European capitals to explain the Indian point of view, particularly, we gather, on the Colombo pro- posals. He will also spend a day in Cairo. 50X1 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A001400060001-5 LJ L?J [JJ Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A001400060001-5 DOCUMENT OF INTEREST For The President Onlv---Ton Secret Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A001400060001-5 50X1
