DAILY BRIEF
MEMINMEMEM, Congo: The main mercenary column moving on
Stanleyville is in position to make the final push on
the city tomorrow.
On 22 November the column, after overcoming
difficulties in ferrying equipment across the Lowa
river at Aluta, was pushing on to Lubutu. An addi-
tional supporting force for the column began to cross
the river yesterday after moving up from Kindu.
So far rebel resistance to the main column has
been light. The mercenaries
are supported by four
T-28s and four T-6s operating from Punia, and by
three B-26s from Kindu.
The situation in Stanleyville appears to be increas-
ingly volatile. There are signs that top rebel authori-
ties may have fled the city, leaving it in the hands of
youth gangs which in the past have been the main per-
petrators of atrocities against Europeans.
Broadcasts from Stanleyville continue to reiterate
that the hostages are well but that their fate depends
on the successful conclusion of negotiations apparently
now going on in Nairobi. Rebel "foreign minister"
Thomas Kanza, appointed by "president" Gbenye to be
sole rebel spokesman in negotiations on the disposition
25X1
of the hostages, di~Lnot appear in NairolLi until yes-
25X1
terday.

Premier Huon has demonstrated
th Vi
t
g
nam:

Sou
his determination not to be swayed by agitation in the
streets for changes in his government, but he may
soon face more serious open opposition.
Police yesterday broke up a demonstration in
Saigon by several hundred students, injuring a num-
ber and arresting 30. Later in the day, a much
larger crowd, which had assembled around Chief of
State Pham Khac Suu's official residence, was dis
mw persed by regular troops using tear gas grenades.
Buddhist leaders have announced that they will
protest alleged police brutality in breaking up the
demonstrations, which appear to have had some
Buddhist sanction.
Principal Buddhist leader Tri Quang, though op-
posed to the Huong government, has thus far remained
on the sidelines, permitting his rival, Tam Chau, to
lead Buddhist agitation for government changes. Yes-
terday's outbreaks, however, may impel Tri Quang
to throw his considerable influence behind overt anti-
government activities.
Regular army participation in quashing yesterday's
agitation indicates that the military, for the moment
at least, is prepared to back Huong. It is uncertain,
25X1
however, whether General Khanh would be willing to
provide sustained support in the face of possible
further student-Buddhist provocations.

United Nations: he four UN ambassadors who
promulgated the plan for a "voluntary rescue fund"
to permit delinquents to pay their UN arrears will
probably take no further action until the USSR and
France respond
New proposals by two of these ambassadors to
mo ify the plan have created sharp divisions in the
group and are limiting its ability to take more effec-
tive action. The Norwegian member of the group dis-
counts as untrue a recent press report that Moscow
has rejected the voluntary fund idea
Moscow, however, has not changed its adamant
position on the payment issue. According to a Czech-
oslovakian UN official, Moscow has enough votes to
put off the question until next year's General Assembly
session and will move for postponemenj
[Whether the USSR has enough votes is question-
able. Many UN members, however, are eager to
avoid confrontation on the issue and may subscribe
to any maneuver that will put off a showdownJ

NOTES
USSR:6moscow reportedly has decided to concen-
trate on purchasing Western engineering technology
and licenses for foreign processes rather than contin-
uing to buy entire plants built by Western technicians
for turnover to the USSR when ready for operation.
This new policy has been adopted during the past
month and is aimed in part at conserving foreign ex-
change,
This decision maj account for the virtual stand-
still in negotiations for Western plants, including the
$85 million deal with Britain's Imperial Chemical
Industri hich has been under discussion for nearly
a ear,

Czechoslovakia: Czechoslovak party boss Novotny,
who failed to attend the 7 November celebrations in
Moscow, has accepted an invitation to.go to Moscow
in the next few days to meet with the new Soviet leaders.
Re-elected president on 12 November, Novotny appar-
has strong domestic support for his show of inde-
ently
pendence toward Moscow since Khrushchev's ouster.
In his re-election speech, Novotny asserted that Czech-
25X1
oslovakia would remain loyal to the Warsaw Pact, but
the Soviet leaders undoubtedly want to know how far
Prague intends to push its independent line

*France: In his 22 November speech at Strasbourg,
De Gaulle reasserted France's new found friendship
for West Germany and the "paramount importance"
France assigns to the job of reaching early accord
on agricultural prices within the Common Market.
He associated the price problem with an alleged dis-
unity in the European political sphere, "which first
of all concerns. defense," and urged the creation of a
"European" military force, "allied of course to the
New World, but... with its own means and its own
obligations," An economically and politically inde-
pendent continental organization might then, accord-
ing to De Gaulle, attract to it the East European bloc
nations to form a new, viable, and powerful Europe.
