Changes have apparently been made to the AS-1 missile to adapt it to a coastal defense role. Major changes include modifications of the vertical tail de- sign and of the guidance antenna on the tail. As a coastal defense weapon, it probably has a range of 30 to 40 nautical miles with a payload on the order of 2,200 pounds. The Havana parade missile appears to be the same one observed at the coastal defense installa- tion at Banes and deployed at the other two cruise- missile sites in Cuba. The Kennel is a cruise missile with a high sub- sonic speed. It is believed to have been carried only by TU-16 (Badger) jet medium bombers. There are no known combat aircraft in Cuba that could accommodate the Kennel system. A few Cuban transport-type aircraft have the weight-lifting capacity for this missile, but it is highly unlikely that these aircraft could be sufficient) modified to employ this weapon system. 25 F?R 1 Approved For Releas - 06800160001-9 25 25X1 Approved For Release 2003/02/27 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO06800160001-9 Approved For Release 2003/02/27 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO06800160001-9 Aooroved For Relea a 2003/02/27: CIA-RDP79T00975 0800160001-9 *Communist Bloc: The speech given by the Chi- nese Communist delegate to the East German party congress on 18 January was not fully responsive to Khrushchev's plea for a halt in the Sino-Soviet po- lemics. Wu Hsiu- chuan indicated that Peiping would find it "helpful" if there were a further initiative by Khru- shchev, who was implicitly charged with "continuing to make attacks" even while he called for their ces- sation. Wu referred to "fully justifiable" worries among many Communists that the tactics employed against Communist China were "creating a split:' The de- velopments at the East German party congress since Khrushchev's speech on 16 January reflected a con- certed maneuver by the Soviet bloc to isolate the Chinese Communists and blame them for any contin- uation or intensification of the Sino-Soviet conflict. Khrushchev's call for a polemical truce and his equivocal endorsement of another international Com- munist conference in the distant future- -seconded by East European delegates--were intended to dis- arm Peiping's attack on Soviet leadership and strat- egy. Wu agreed that a discontinuation of attacks against "fraternal" parties was a necessary prelimi- nary to an international Communist conference. He indicated, however, that China does not regard Yugo- slavia as a "fraternal" party, and he reiterated the standard Chinese positions on such issues as Alba- nia's orthodoxy and on his country's record in the Sino-Indian border dispute. Peiping may feel that Khrushchev's seeming of- fer of the olive branch imposes on the Chinese the 19 Jan 63 DAILY BRIEF 3 111 Approved For Releas - 6800160001-9 25 ~:00%,11:0 1111MMENT Cnnrnvad Fnr Ra as a 7004/07/77 ? !'IG_RfIP7QT00075 ~annn~60001annm_9 2525 Approved For Re ea a 2003/02/27: CIA-RDP79T00975 0068001- U j j I Ell I ME 07 tactical necessity of some conciliatory gestures, and Wu's remarks do not preclude a decision by Communist China to moderate its propaganda. There are no indications of real progress thus far, however, toward a durable truce. TASS criticized Wu for his "completely inadmissible tone:' The uproar in the audience that attended Wu's speech also reflected the deep-seated differ- ences that continue to prevent any brid ing of the rift between Moscow and Peiping. 25 11 ON 19 Jan 63 DAILY BRIEF 4 Approved For Releas - 6800160001-9 25 1-1 0 25 j Approved For Re leas 2003/02/27 .CIA-RDP79T00975 Obd00160001-9 Sino-Indian Dispute: Contrary to the public im- pression created following rime Minister Bandara- naike's talks in New Delhi, Indian leaders do not expect that their qualified acceptance of the Colombo conference proposals will lead to serious negotiations of the border dispute., Nye ru made clear in letters to Mrs. Bandaranaike that the Indians accept the proposals only as modified by them during the Ceylonese prime minister's visit. Fo ,reign Secretary Desai expects the Chinese to reject the proposals as modified by India. He feels that even if an agreement on a cease-fire is reached, the immediate result will only be "talks about talks." Desai and Defense Minister Chavan agree that Indian acceptance of the modified proposals does not remove the need for a military build-up, j 19 Jan 63 DAILY BRIEF 25X 25X1 25X1 MEN j Approved For Rele e 2003102127 m C1 - 006800160001-9 25 MMMIMMM/M Approved For Release 2003/02/27: CIA-RDP79TOO975A 0160001-9 25X1 V// *Cong :Qjntalks with the British, Belgian, and US consuls on 18 January, Tshombd was seeking guarantees for his personal safety and assurances 'that the UN plan would still be appliej --..0 mbd claimed that Adoula's and Hasavubuls lette-rs to U Thant on the amnesty were only "vague promises" which gave no real assurances to him or his colleagues and suggested that Leopoldville had ulterior motives.

He is the only Laborite acknowledged by the public to have the ability to handle the prime ministership. Gaitskell's possible successors at one time or an er have all aroused the antagonism of factions within the party. The most prominent are George Brown, the strongly pro-NATO and pro-US deputy party leader, and Harold Wilson, foreign affairs spokesman who enjoys wide support among the left wing. A possible compromise candidate is James Callaghan, party spokesman on Treasury affairs.
