Thant discouraged him from such a move at this stage and urged that negotiations be continued within the four-power framework. The Sec- retary General indicated to Ehrushchev, however, that it might be desirable to place this question before the UN at some later stag~:3 Khrushchev mentioned the USSR's desire to estab- a 1 2 5 X 1 MM/01// lish UN presence in West Berlin. He also indicated that although he would not attend the opening of the General Assembly, he might come later in the session if his presence seemed to be warrante 25XI' I M A M MEM Aooroved For Rel ase 2003/04/17: CIA-RDP79TO09 5AME 00050001-3 Ithe chances "seem very good" that Ehrushchev will appear before the 25X1 General Assembly at some point.

Moscow declares that all UN troops should leave the Congo after neutralizing foreign interests in Ka- tanga, which should require no more than a month.

Nonetheless he expects the UN to implement the plan rapidly. He believes that 90 days should be the maximum time allowed for its completion'. Katangan authorities are still agitated over the addit-i6n of a Congo army unit of about 500 troops to the UN contingent at the Kamina airbase. On 5 Sep- tember Tshomb6 called the troop movement a vio- lation of UN pledges and a threat to the "peaceful solution which was about to succeed." Chief UN representative Gardiner feels the move S I/ 0 25X1 25X1 prd'vMes a useful backstop to the UN plan.

According to Undersecretary of Foreign Affairs Shaw, the post will first be offered to former Pro- visional President General Pedro Aramburu, and if he declines, to retired Admiral Issac Rojas or Chief of Staff General Labayru. Under the plan, the new "chief of the cabinet" would run the government, and President Guido, whose prestige has been declining rapidly, would merely countersign decrees. If Guido refuses to accept this arrangement, he will be re- placed by Supreme Court President Benjamin Basavilbaso, constitutional successor to the presidency. The compromise, according to Ambassador McClintock, may "further whet the appetites of those who favor outright military control of the government:' 25X1 0 7 Sept 62 DAILY BRIEF v j Approved For Release 2003/04/17: CIA-RDP79T009 A2d0050001-3 j 25X1 Approved For Release 2003/04/17 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO06600050001-3 Approved For Release 2003/04/17 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO06600050001-3 Approved For 4elease 2003/04/17 : C1A-RDP79T00975A006 00050001-3 25X1 THE PRESIDENT The Vice President Executive Offices of the White House Special Counsel to the President Military Representative of the President The Special Assistant for National Security Affairs The Scientific Adviser to the President The Director of the Budget The Director, Office of Emergency Planning The Director, National Aeronautics and Space Administration The Department of State The Secretary of State The Under Secretary of State The Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs The Deputy Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs The Counselor and Chairman of the Policy Planning Council The Director of Intelligence and Research The Treasury Department The Secretary of the Treasury The Under Secretary of the Treasury The Department of Defense The Secretary of Defense The Deputy Secretary of Defense The Secretary of the Army The Secretary of the Navy The Secretary of the Air Force The Assistant Secretary of Defense (International Security Affairs) The Assistant Secretary of Defense The Chairman, The Joint Chiefs of Staff Chief of Naval Operations, United States Navy Chief of Staff, United States Air Force Chief of Staff, United States Army Commandant, United States Marine Corps U.S. Rep., Military Committee and Standing Group, NATO Supreme Allied Commander, Europe Commander in Chief, Pacific The Director, Defense Intelligence Agency The Director, The Joint Staff The Director for Intelligence, The Joint Staff The Assistant Chief of Staff for Intelligence, Department of Army The Director of Naval Intelligence, Department of Navy The Assistant Chief of Staff, Intelligence, Department of the Air Force The Department of Justice The Attorney General The Federal Bureau of Investigation The Director The Atomic Energy Commission The Chairman The National Security Agency The Director The United States Information Agency The Director The National Indications Center The Director Approved For 25X1 V,/:/x/xxxx-OOiiiiiiZ-1 //i/1 9 Appro/~7~IFQ~F00 iiiiiiii/ iii 0600050001-3 Approved For Release .Q 4117 ? j400975AO06600050001-3 c
