SOVIET UNION
1. Eastward expansion of Soviet Far Eastern security patrols noted:
\a gradual eastward movement of
Soviet Far Eastern security patrols since
1948. In that year, Sakhalin IslandDistrict
Com- mand moved from Nikolaevsk on the mainland to Uglegorsk in the
southern half of Sakhalin and was given jurisdiction over the southern
Kuriles Islands.
A gradual reduction in the number of radio
stations on the northern half of Sakhalin in 1950 was followe by an
increase in the southern half. During the period 1949 to 1952 the
number of guard posts and patrol vessels in the Kuriles rose, with
the greatest number of patrol vessel operations throughout the Far
East noted at the start of the 1952 navigational season. (See map on
page 4)
FAR EAST
2. Peiping seeks East German aid to establish a synthetic petroleum plant:
The Chinese Communist Trade Mission
in Berlin requested the East
German regime in early May to expedite
technical assistance in establishing a
plant for manufacturing petroleum products from coal. Blueprints
for the plant are now being drawn up in East Germany.
Comment:
Peiping and Berlin have referred frequently to negotiations fqr the
purchase of a synthetic petroleum plant from East Germany. The
Chinese seem to be negotiating for a plant capable of producing
150,000 tons of petroleum products annually. This will expand their
production by about 50 percent.
