The Viet Cong allegedly hope to foster popular agitation for the release of ar- rested rioters and for improved living conditions, and to work through Buddhists to attack KhanIJ Viet Cong agents are to start a plied in a recent article that the US has been manipulat- ing the situation in Vietnam to extend its own influence. The paper sought to attribute recent religious strife to American influence, claiming that there was no Bud- dhist violence before the Americans arrived) [Saigon student groups, meanwhile, have announced support for Khanh, but reserve the right to resume agita- tion should he appear to be reneging on his promise to create a civilian government within sixty days. 25X1 25X1 [These anti-American manifestations may not be di- rectly attributable to Viet Cong agitation, but they indi- cate that, at the least, the Communists have a fertile field in which to operate WI 1 4 25X1 Approved For Release 200olOol 17 - 900Q9~11-5 25X1 Approved For Release 2005/05/17 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO07900090001-5 Next 2 Page(s) In Document Exempt Approved For Release 2005/05/17 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO07900090001-5 M Approved For Release 2005/05/17 CIA-RDP79T00975A00790 09(@QXi m 25X1 NATO-Cyprus: CBoth Greece and Turkey have appealed to NATO for help in heading off a showdown between them.) [Athens and Ankara made their pitch in almost identical fashion at a NATO Council meeting on Tues - day. Although the general consensus of the council was that the main burden for working out a settle- ment rested with the two interested parties, it com- missioned Secretary General Brosio immediately to undertake a study of how NATO might play a more effective roll 'The council concluded that there are two prin- cipal alternatives by which NATO might intervene more directly between Greece and Turkey. One is to broaden Brosio's present mandate to keep a close watch over the Cyprus situation. The other is to make use of the secretary general's good offices role as established in a council resolution of December 1956. The council recognized. that NATO's actions should. be consistent with the continuing role of the UN Security Councij Greek and Turkish tempers may flare again in New York today, however, when the Security Council takes up Athen's complaint about Turkish treatment of Greeks in Istanbul and Turkey's counterclaims . 3t rGreece7f 25X1 11 Sept 64 Approved F 01X1 70 25X1 Approved For Release 2005/05/17 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO07900090001-5 Approved For Release 2005/05/17 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO07900090001-5 Approve For Release 2005/05/17. CIA-RDP79T00975A0079 00900261 UK: [The US Embassy in London believes that the Labor Party is still a slight favorite to win next month's general election? The Conservatives, however, are hopeful of overtaking Labor in the home stretch. They are greatly encouraged by Prime Minister Douglas- Home's steadily improving image. They also are counting on reaping the benefits of domestic pros- perity and their greater experience in international affairs) (Labor leaders concede the Tories have made a comeback and some fear that they could win the elec- tion. Indeed, the party faces the danger that its leader, Harold Wilson, will have played out his ap- peal before polling day] (Labor also has an uphill job of convincing the electorate that a change is necessary. Most La- borites, nonetheless cling to the belief that the "time-for-change" psychology, their chief ally, will be strong enough to permit them to oust the "played out" ConservativeB potentially important factor in what promi- ses to be a close race is the pulling power of the small Liberal Party. While the party is not ex- pected to increase its representation in Parlia- ment, votes for the Liberals are likel to hurt the Conservatives more than Labor 11 Sept 64 DAILY BRIEF 6 Approved or Release 2005/05/17: CIA-RDP79T00975A0079 0021-5 25X1 Approved For Release 2005/05/17 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO07900090001-5 Next 2 Page(s) In Document Exempt Approved For Release 2005/05/17 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO07900090001-5 A roved For Release 2005/05/17 CIA-RDP79T00975A007900 900 NOTES USSR: CA Soviet submarine, which appears to be a nuclear powered N-class torpedo-attack unit, has been tracked on a southwesterly course in an area about 500 miles east of Newfoundland. The apparent course of the submarine suggests that it may patrol into the western Atlantic. Soviet nuclear submarines rarely conduct long-range patrols and have never been known to cruise in the western Atlantic 11 Sept 64 Approve Approve For Release 2005/05/17 00)55C1 mOMMEMMINIII, MN Approved For Release 2005/05/17: CIA-RDP79T00975A0079 00X11-5 M M, L H NO IMMEN I I' II .\ Guatemala: There hTtve been num er o re- ports in recent weeks suggesting that rightist and leftist extremists are once again trying to coordi- nate moves against the Peralta regime.
