DAILY BRIEF
I. THE COMMUNIST BLOC
USSR: e Soviet central committee plenum, which opens
24 June, may consider a further reorganization of the Soviet
economy as well as the expansion of the chemical industry,
automation, and mechanization, which comprise the announced
agenda. Some top party and economic officials in the Soviet
Far East were ordered to be in Moscow by 20 June, possibly
for a series of closed meetings prior to the plenum. The tone
of the plenum itself will probably reflect Ithrushchev's recent
statement that industrial output this year is running 5 percent
above plan. Although the published agenda would indicate that
the plenum will be concerned exclusively with economic matters,
it is quite likely that political affairs will also be discussed and
that Khrushchev will use the occasion to review Soviet foreign
0
Japan: A leftist campaign opposing the proposed revision
of the US-Japan Security Treaty is scheduled to begin on 25 June
with a "demonstration of force" under the guidance of the labor
federation Sohyo and the Socialist and Communist parties. Na-
tionwide strikes, rallies, and demonstrations are planned for
that date and are to take place periodically until the time of the
treaty's ratification next fall. The movement has not yet acquired
widespread public support, and there is no likelihood that the
leftists can block revision of the treaty and achieve its abroga-
tion. The Japanese police are believed capable of maintaining
order in the face of the scheduled disturbances.

Cambodia - South Vietnam:
Cambodian Premier Sihanouk will visit Saigon in
July br direct talks with President Diem aimed at easing
Cambodian-Vietnamese differences. Sihanouk proposed the
meeting to Diem and has given it broad piblicity. There is
little likelihood of significant agreement.

III. THE WEST
Austria: Defense Minister Graf is considering the pur-
chase of MIG-TI aircraft which Czechoslovakia has offered to
sell to Austria on very favorable terms. In explaining the offer,
which follows Soviet Defense Minister Malinovsky's recent visit
to Vienna, Graf emphasized to American officials that Austrian
technicians would be trained in Czechoslovakia and that no
Czech personnel would be sent to Austria. At present, the
Austrian Air Force has approximately 60 aircraft of which
only three are jets�British-produced Vampires)
(Page 3)
Argentina: President Frondizi faces a new political crisis
in his cabinet reorganization and in the increasing confusion
among the armed forces, whose support he needs to preserve
order. (Some military groups are warning that Frondizi's new
abinet hnd policies must provide stronger measures against
eronista and Communist influence, or they will seek to oust
im.) Although the military leaders pledging support for consti-
tidnal government have thus far prevailed, the situation re-
ains tense. (Page 4)
*Brazil: /Ultranationalist advisers of President ICubitschek
have drawn IIpan anti-US "disaster plans!' which they threaten
to publicize in the hope of forcing the US to reconsider Brazil's
request for an emergency balance-of-payments loan. This ma-
neuver is strongly opposed by the foreign minister and the act-
ing finance minister--both of whom hope for an amicable corn-,
promise solution. The American Embassy considers that this
