It selected for emphasis, however, those aspects of the declaration for example, on peaceful coexistence and the preventability of war�which correspond to present Soviet positions. This continuation of open discussion between the Soviet and Chinese parties while interna- tional Communist leaders are still meeting in Moscow indicates that they have been unable to resolve their dis- agreements and suggests that they have found it difficult to formulate a communique which will satisfy both parties. The moderate tone of the Pravda, editorial, however, would appear to presage the probable nature of any com- munique which may result�one placing heaviest empha- sis on the majority Soviet view but so worded that the Chinese can:sin it and continue to claim that their views are valid.

Peiping has been pressing New Delhi for 6 ubstantive border negotiations, and it seems unlikely that he incidents represent a premediated effort by Peiping to precipitate new clashes with the Indians. Chinese troops are in the area, however, probably attempting to check the re-entry of Tibetan rebels gathered in Sikkim. New Delhi, apprehensive about its defense position in Sikkim, has re- _centiv_auemead alerted Indian troops in the area.7 (Page 3) �TOP�SECRET ii"0"Jp�p�r;"-;;;;ITOEkele.-26267667iTEETEgigr A r 'y 4 'Approved for Release: 2020/03/13 C03160576 kirOLTOP�sEeREim North - South Vietnam: the Communists were slow to react to the 11 No- vember attempt against President Diem and still were not clear on some details nine days later, the Communists now hope to capitalize on the post- coup situa- tion. recent North Vietnamese directives, interpret the coup as symptomatic of the difficulties besetting Diem and the resulting situation as "very advantageous for us," call for political agitation to ex- ploit dissension in the South, and repeat orders for political assassination of "cruel individuals."

ASIA-AFRICA *Laos: A mixed force of troops under the control of Sou= a Phouma and the Pathet Lao, consisting of more than six companies, is reported to be advancing along routes lead- ing to Luang Prabang. One column evidently departed from Muong Kassy on 23 November, followed by a larger force on 24 November. Luang Prabang is some 55 miles distant from Muong Kassy, over difficult country, and an unopposed route march might require about four days:I mil= itary headquarters in Savannakhet ordered the pro-Phoumi force 'ay' in Luang Prabang to organize the perimeter defenses of the town, including guerrilla activity in the surrounding vicinity. Also Phoumi-controlled forces were ordered to commence pressure operations against Vientiane. Souvanna Phouma, while he denied to the American am- bastador on 23 November that he had actually given an order to attack Luang Prabang, has been active on other fronts. On 23 November he announced that within three or four days, the Soviet Union would begin airlifting food and gasoline to Vientianej 25 Nov 60 /)Approved for Release: 2020/03/13 C03160576r DAILY BRIEF p. -TOP-SEGRE -T /I 11 Pz A 'Approved for Release: 2020/03/13 C03160576 Now; taro TOP SECRET Evia Hanoi. On the same day, his government made a formal request to the American ambassador in Vientiane that the United States immediately cease all aid to General Phoumi's Savannakhet regime. Souvanna has also continued his efforts to persuade the King to convene a meeting of all factions in Luang Prabang for a last try at forming a coalition govern- ment. -1 Souvanna is c nsidering either an appeal for UN intervention or the re- turn of the International Control Commission if the United States does not cease its support of Phoumi. the UK, as co-chairman of the 1954 Geneva truce conference, had previously objected to the return of the ICC on the grounds that the Laotian Govern- ment was opposed; if Souvanna should now reverse this posi- tion, the UK might find it difficult to continue its opposition. anoi and Peiping have seized on Vientiane's 16 November sta ement that it would seek closer ties with Hanoi and Peiping. North Vietnam on 19 November invited a Laotian delegation to visit Hanoi and discuss "cooperation and mutual aid" proposals. Souvanna Phourna's reply, released on 22 November by Vien- tiane agreed to "barter goods at our common frontier" but did not respond to Hanoi's invitation to send a delegation. An official Chinese Communist statement on 20 November "warmly wel- comed" the Vientiane statement on improving relations and said that Peiping "is Drenared to take corresponding measures C,Thailand: Many coup rumors, of varying plausibility, are again circulating in Bangkok.

That declaration was issued on 22 November, and the use both Peiping and Moscow are making of the third anniversary of its appearance suggests that their current discussions, like the talks in Bucharest in June 1960, have taken them back to the 1957 manifesto as the only possible basis for a new pronouncement which, while making another ritualistic assertion of bloc unity, will in fact register failure to make any progress toward resolving the basic issues in dispute. The 1957 manifesto was itself a compromise document, carefully formulated to reflect differing views on the pol- icies to be pursued by international Communism. The doc- ument emphasized Soviet views, but it included Chinese ad- ditions which made it possible for each party to claim that the declaration upheld its own views. Throughout the course of the controversy, the Chinese have heavily stressed only those elements which corre- spond to their positions, and the burden of the argument presented in the most recent PsigkLeh Daily editorial seems to be that the declaration remains valid and that they are faithful to it. In a separate comment on the declaration, the Albanian regime's major paper has added its voice in support of the Chinese positions. The Pravda editorial, in contrast, has selected for emphasis those aspects of the declaration which elaborate the Soviet positions, while acknowledging, in brief, some of the views stressed by the Chinese. While maintaining that the Soviet party regards the "Leninist principle of peaceful coexistence" as the correct line for Communist foreign -eONFIBENTIAL 25 Nov 60 rp16.17D At ILITGI I ii-�c14.1/^C DI II I CTIk1 �-'''Approved for Release: 2020/03/13 C03160576 Page 1 Approved for Release: 2020/03/13 C03160576 CONFIDENTIAL policy, it adds that this does "not deny the struggle of classes; does not mean the conciliation of socialism and capitalism." Emphasizing that war can now be prevented by the strength of the "socialist" forces, the editorial notes that "as long as imperialism exists. . . there will exist threats to the cause of peace." Reiterating the conclusion of the 1957 declaration that the main danger to Communism is "revisionism," the editorial nevertheless pointedly observes that "dogmatism and sectarianism" could also represent a "basic danger at individual stages of development of one party or another." Moscow's reply to the Chinese, then, while remaining firm on the basic issues, treats the doctrinal difficulties much as the 1957 declaration did. The continuation of open discussion between the Soviet and Chinese parties while the meetings in Moscow are still in progress indi- cates that they have been unable to resolve their disagree- ments and suggests that they have found it difficult to for- mulate a communique which will satisfy both parties. The moderate tone of the Pravda editorial, however, would ap- pear to presage the probable nature of any communique which may result�one placing the heaviest emphasis on the majority Soviet view but so worded that the Chinese can sien it and continue to claim that their views are valid.

The firing may actually have come from armed Tibetan rebels who were forced out of their coun- try following the rebellion in 1958 and are now attempting to re-enter it by of Sikkim, Bhutan, and Nepal. Df ChinOse troops were, in fact, involved, they probably were not acting on specific orders from Peiping to provoke clashes with the Indians. The Chinese have lately gone to great lengths in promoting their "peacefulness" to repair the damage done to their Asian reputation by the Sino-Indian border clashes of 1959. Chinese forces now on the Sikkim border are probably interested primarily in preventing the re-entry of rebels into Tibet:3 Qt is unlikely that the activities of the Chinese and Indian teams, now in Rangoon drafting a final report to pinpoint the border claims of both sides, will be affected by the new inci- dents.j t Rumors of increased activity opposite Sikkim and continu- ing reports of sniping activity along the Sikkim-Tibet frontier have caused India to augment its forces in the Sikkim-Darjeel- ing area to more than three brigades and to order an alert among all Indian forces in the vicinity. �India's quick reaction to the events in Sikkim, which will almost certainly further strain Sino-Indian relations, under- scores New Delhi's concern over the defense of this strategic border area. Should the reports of sniping activity continue, it is likely that New Delhi will lift its current restriction on Indian counterfire.i SECRET 25 Nov 60 cm�...-r, Al lk I 1"Ch. nil. �-''-'Approved for Release: 2020/03/13 C03160576Page 3 � Approved for Release: 2020/03/13 C03160576 Vietnamese C-ni.puu.u.i.01.0 .1.1lJ1JV J.U11.11.1.161.1.� Developmentswil gouth Vietnamese Communists, at first slow to react to the up- rising against President Diem on 11 November, apparently are now acting on the orders of North Vietnam in the hope of ex- ploiting the situation.

Communist cadres were told to keep an eye open for escapees who could be useful in the effort to form a united front of elements dedicated to ousting Diem. the Communists were still uncertain�nine days after the coup�just which South Viet- namese military units had been involved and what had happened to them. the Communists were antagonized by the anti-Communist statements made by the coup group and had no sympathy for the plotters, despite their possible value in the Com- munist drive to topple Diem. In terms duplicating Hanoi's public statements, the coup had failed because it was anti- Communist and "did not rely on the people." however, as symptomatic of the severe difficulties besetting Diem and the resulting political situation as "very advantageous for us." Proceeding from this point, outlined a program of combined violence and political action designed to culminate in a revolt more to Hanoi's liking. The ef- forts of this program will be directed toward stimulating opposi- tion against Diem's agrovilles, where large groups of South Viet- namese farmers have been relocated for security reasons; ex- horting peasants to demand an end to anti-Communist military operations; and atterripting to subotrE, the Solitlr Viet- namese Army. The guerrillas were told again to assassinate "cruel individuals" who get in the way. Although the Diem government is attempting to tone down the more extreme demands of a quasi-official "People's Committee against Rebels and Communists" for reprisals against the coup instigators, Diem remains under pressure to crack down on his political opponents. Any such campaign of repression would lead to increased public dissatisfaction and play into Communist hands. 4,40.0.411w � 25 Nov 60 CEApproved for Release: 2020/03/13 C03160576 Page 4 Approved for Release: 2020/03/13 C03160576 'mow Syrians Appear to/Be Seeking Improved Relations With US tyhe American consul generai in Damascus has noted a series of recent incidents indicating an official Syrian ef- fort to improve the heretofore cool relations with the United States. The effort has been most noticeable in Syrian deal- ings with both private and official Americans on economic, technical, and cultural matters. The Syrian director of technical assistance, for example, recently stated that "the opportunity for expanding American cooperation was un- precedented," and representatives of American business firms and other American visitors have remarked on the favorable reception they have received.) /Syrian Executive Council President Abd al-Hamid Sar- raj startled American officials recently by his friendly at- titude during the farewell call of the former American con- sul.

Joxe is a career civil servant with liberal views who has been ambassador to both Bonn and Moscow and, until his new appointment, was minister of education. Considered completely loyal to De Gaulle, he will probably have strong support from French political elements which favor a liberal solution. To replace the previous delegate general, Paul Delouvrier, who was selected primarily for his ability as an economist and manager, De Gaulle has seat� Algeria one of the ranking 1 civil and police administrators in France. As superprefect of the Toulouse region since mid-1958, Morin is experienced in deal- ing with the heavy concentration of rightist elements in south- west France--including the paratroop training camp at Pau. Administratively, the personnel changes will strengthen De Gaulle's hand prior to his visit to Algeria early next month and to the national referendum on Algerian policy--now set for the first two weeks of January. However, the changes will also emphasize the gulf between De Gaulle and the right- ists, will probably encourage them to close ranks, and may occasion further rightist demonstrations. LThere are indications that the Front for French Algeria (FAF) is planning "total disobedience" in Algeria in the immediate future. The civilian population will be encouraged to ignore the curfew, to refuse to pay taxes, and--with the cooperation of civil servants--to bring about a complete break- down of postal, sanitary, electric, and police services in order to force the army to take over supervision of these pub- lic services.lahe delegate general's office is reportedly pre- pared to requisition workers to maintain essential services. The government also knows that FAF leaders expect General Salan, the retired former commander in chief in Algeria who has been criticizing De Gaulle's policies from Spain, to return clandestinely and lead FAF activities.

Paz as- serted that he himself opposed aid from the Communist bloc, which was readily available, but that Lechin would not hesitate to go "to the other side." Strom believes that Paz' position is gravely threatened, especially by current overdue government obligations, and that a credit of about $5,000,000 would be required to support him through an interim period. -1 -Paz' difficulties are complicated by a pronounced pro- Communist, leftist trend in recent months�particularly within the ruling Nationalist Revolutionary Movement party --widespread labor and peasant unrest, and violence this month in the Department of Cochabamba, leading to the promulgation of a state of siege there on 19 November. Dem- onstrations were conducted against Strom during his visit to the city of Cochabamba on 14 November, and further anti- US outbreaks are possible.) Pressures are also mounting on the bankrupt adminis- tration to accept bloc offers of aid, especially a Soviet offer to build a tin smelter in Bolivia. The government announced recently that a commercial mission would leave shortly for Western Europe, Czechoslovakia, and the USSR to seek credits for Comibol, the national mining corporation, and Paz has indicated that it will also investigate a rumored Soviet credit offer of $60,000,000 to Bolivia national petro- leum agency. Czechoslovakia, the only bloc country with which Bolivia exchanges diplomatic missions, has also been discussing arrangements with Bolivia for supplying enuip- ment and supplies to Comibol. 25 Nov 60 CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE BULLETIN Page 7 Approved for Release: 2020/03/13 C03160576 Approved for Release: 2020/03/13 C03160576 vine NW/ Student Strike Prompts Martial Law in Haiti The Duvalier government on 22 November imposed martial law throughout Haiti as a reaction to the calling of a long- threatened student strike which the government described as politically motivated and Communist-controlled. The strike is believed to have been touched off chiefly by resentment over President Duvalier's refusal to free a student leader who has been in jail without charges since 1 September. Leaders of the principal student organization, which encompasses uni- versity and high school students, are apparently sympathetic to the Castro regime in nearby Cuba, and the possibility of Cuban influence in the strike cannot be eliminated. Yesterday, as the strike continued, the government ordered all schools in the country closed until after Christmas and summarily expelled from Haiti French-born Archbishop Poirier--who was threatened with arrest last year when he critized the regime--accusing him of giving $7,000 to aid the students. There apparently is no immediate threat to the regime, as the opposition is poorly organized and made up of diverse elements. Businessmen and government employees yesterday staged a demonstration in Port au Prince in support of Duvalier. The President is generally unpopular, however, particularly in the capital, and any drastic police action to break up student demonstrations might lead to widespread rioting that could bring the government down. the student strike might spread to other groups in the capital and said the students had been promised "of the taxi drivers' and dockworkers' unions. an unidenti- fied army officer had told the :studgnts tha o e army" is opposed to the President. There is no evidence to support the latter statement; loyal officers are believed to retain a tight rein on the military, which has been cleverly manipulated into rival elements which are unlikely to work in concert and no one of which is believed capable of a successful move against the President at this time. CUS officials in Port au Prince, who commented on 23 No- vember that the government was exhibiting an attitude of con- fidence, also reported local speculation that the regime had SECRET 25 Nov 60 cENTD Al 11�ITFI I ICZFKICF RI III FTIKI -nage 8 Approved for Release: 2020/03/13 C03160576 Approved for Release: 2020/03/13 C03160576 SECRET __ deliberately encouraged the strike to provide pretext for ar- resting political opponents and to try to convince the United States that Haiti has a large Communist problem and will require massive aid.
