The planned management of the national economy is one of the fundamental, essential, and inalienable attributes of the sov- reignty of the socialist state. . ' . . Nobody can decide what is and what is not correct for other countries and parties. It is up to every Marxist- Leninist party, it is a sovereign right of each socialist state, to elaborate, choose, or change the forms and methods of socialist construction." ON BLOC RELATIONS "There does not and cannot exist a 'father' party and a 'son' party, parties that are 'superior' and parties that are 'subordi- nate,' but there exists the great family of Communist and worker's parties, which have equal rights." "No party has or can have a privileged place, and can im- pose its Iine or opinions on other parties.It "it is the exclusive right of each party to independently work out its political line, its concrete objectives, the ways and means of attaining them . . .

This position was stated in a declaration drafted at the central committee plenum which met from 15 to 22 April to consider Rumania's position in intrabloc relations. The document strongly emphasized the need to respect basic principles of equal rights, national sovereignty, and the national and historical differ- ences among Communist states. Rumania, more- over, denied that any party had the right to be "supe- rior" or to unilaterally direct the international move- ment. The Rumanian statement attacks the Soviet-spon- sored attempt to increase bloc economic integration through the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (CEMA) and to give CEMA a supranational character, which the Rumanians claimed would infringe on the sovereignty of the member states. Bucharest would. expand CEMA by including all Communist countries and by granting limited partici- pation to other countries which are moving toward "noncapitalist development." IN Rumania indicated that it is generally opposed to all supranational organizations of Communist states and parties. The declaration implicitly criticized both the Chi- nese and Soviet parties for their conduct in their dis- pute--the Chinese somewhat more than the Soviets-- and for the damage which the dispute is doing to the international movement.

Rumania favors formation of a commission of several parties to prepare thoroughly a new international Com- munist conference, which would be attended by "all parties." The document clearly reveals that the Rumanian party fears a formal Sino-Soviet split would result in Moscow's attempt to impose strict discipline on the anti-Chinese parties. Rumania's declaration, which in effect generally agrees with Moscow's rather than Peiping's stance in their dispute, appears to serve notice that Bucharest will resist any attempt to im- pose such discipline. 25X1 10 29 Apr 64 DAILY BRIEF 6 Approved F r Release 2003/01/29 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO0760 36(g5A ..0WinJ 0 ME no.

They are telling Pak that only Kim's removal can revive public support for the overnment and pre- vent new student demonstrations. been will not bow easily to such pressure. Kim has een his right-hand man since the inception of the 1961 coup and Pak probably believes that he is irreplaceable. Yesterday Pak told newsmen that Kim's removal would not solve the political sit tion and that Kim was continuing as party chairman The students, who have not demonstrated since 22 April, have returned to their studies in response to government warnings and advice of university of- ficials. The statement of the university officials, however, contained a warning of the need to clean up official corruption, to discontinue police surveillance of student activities, and to end current political strife. 29 Apr 64 DAILY BRIEF 25X1 A, Approved For Release 2003/01/29 : CIA-RDP79T00975A00760036 0$15X1 Approved For ReIe1d2003/01/29 : CIA-RDP79T00975A00360001-8 JHuanchaca Uyuni N4 - Tar buc ConcepciOn 25X1= 2~ - 01-8 R L INTELLIGENCE BULLETIN Map Approved For Release ,200310-11,29 : CIA-RDP79T00975A0076003 011X1 Bolivia: Tension in Bolivia's tin mining areas has risen sharply in the past few days, and may fore- shadow a revolt by miners loyal to leftist Vice Presi- dent Juan Lechin. A government appeal to the miners last weekend to disavow Lechinist leadership inspired progovern- ment miners to attack a radio station in Huanuni op- erated by Lechin's followers, This touched off a series of violent clashes between the two groups. The outbursts prompted pro-Lechin miners in the large Catavi - Siglo Viente mining complex to walk off their jobs in protest. Other mining centers are threatening to go on strike today. Lechin, who rushed to the scene of the fighting, made a fiery speech on 26 April, calling on the miners to unite and "fight to the death against American im- perialism and the tyranny of Victor Paz:',, One Lechin- ist mine representative also demanded a "popular armed insurrection, beginning 1 May." The US Embassy reports rumors that Lechinists will launch a terrorist campaign in all major cities, including La Paz, beginning on 2 May. The opposition parties, except for the Communist Party, have rejected Lechin's proposal of an electoral front to support his candidacy for the presidency in the 31 May elections. Lechin knows that he has little chance of gaining power through the electoral process. Given the mood of his followers, he may now feel he has no choice but to make a bid for power by force of arms. 25X1 29 Apr 64 DAILY BRIEF MNN1vvcaa I r Release - 60001L- IX1 ------------- .

At a meeting on 27 April attended by Egyptian President Nasir, a new constitution establishing a consultative council with legislative powers was ap- proved and Hammud al-Jayfi was entrusted with form- ing a new cabinet. These moves almost certainly fore- shadow a dilution of the authority of President Sallal and those elements around him that have been most amenable to Egyptian influence. The appointment of Jayfi, whom the Egyptians have long distrusted., is a measure of Cairo's concern over the recent deterioration of Sallal's control of in- ternal affairs. Nasir suspects Jayfi of Baathist lean- ings and feels he might wish to limit the Egyptian role in Yemen. Jayfi spent the last year in virtual exile from Yemen as ambassador to Cairo. Nevertheless, Jayfi is a forceful and relatively efficient administrator with considerable popularity among most Yemeni republican elements. Nasir may hope that a broadening of the republi- can regime will improve chances for a compromise solution to the Yemeni problem with the Saudis. Saudi Crown Prince Faysal, however, will probably view this move as an indication that Egyptian troubles in Yemen are mounting. (Faysal now appears unw'lling to proceed with a planned meeting with Nasir 29 Apr 64 DAILY BRIEF Approved For 9 25X1 Release 2003701729 : UA-KUVfU I UUUfOAUUfbUUJbUUUIT 25X1 25X1 Approved For Release 2003/01/29 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO07600360001-8 Next 1 Page(s) In Document Exempt Approved For Release 2003/01/29 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO07600360001-8 WM7A d F R I 2003/01/29 CIA RDP79T00975A0076003600 1 8 pprove o e ease 25X1 NOTES India: Nehru's series of talks beginning today with Sheikh Abdullah, the recently freed popular hero of Kashmir, will be crucial for the future stability of that state and. for relations between India and Pak- istan. Some Indian officials apparently are prepared to go quite far toward a compromise agreement in- volving a measure of autonomy for Kashmir. Pres- sure from extremist elements in India and from Pak- istan in the UN Security Council will, however, make it increasingly difficult for Nehru and Abdullah to reach any agreement. 25X1 Pakistan - Communist China: General Moham- mad Musa, Pakistani Army commander in chief, has reportedly received an invitation to visit Communist China. President Ayub will probably authorize the trip in line with Pakistan's policy of "normalizing" relations with Peiping. Ayub accepted a similar in- vitation during Chou En-tai's February visit to Pak- istan, and reportedly is considering going late this 25X1 year. Moo on Burma: General Ne Win's order requiring all Buddhist organizations to register with the govern- ment by 15 May is coalescing opposition among the monks. Four monk groups in Mandalay, the center of Buddhist hostility to the regime, have announced they will not comply with the order, and some ex- tremist monks are now reportedly advocating self- immolation as part of an all-out resistance cam- paign. Other influential Buddhist organizations have not yet reached a final decision on compliance. 29 Apr 64 Approved Fob DAILY BRIEF 5X1 25X1 A ; 14- ;~~M Approved For I,alaaca 9003101199 ?
