Luyt expects this in a few days. With both Burnhan's socialist People's National Congress (PNC) and the conservative United Force agreed on a coalition, an administration with a five-seat majority can then be formed Because of the depth of the racial cleavage re- flected in the voting, Burnham will be directing his first moves at overcoming East Indian mistrust of the Negro PNC and averting the possibility of violence. He plans to give important noncabinet jobs to the de- feated leader and other members of the East Indian Justice Part However, there are almost insurmountable ob- stac es to Burnham's winning over East Indians and thus making his administration a success. Even if he does, this in itself might bring the PPP to foster violence in two or three months. The US consul gen- eral in Georgetown believes that if violence should occur, Burnham would "wish to react ruthlessly" against those involved (continued) Approved Fo 25X1 Approved 25X1 own prestige by early announcement of US aid and a For Release 2003/04/11 : CIA-RDP79TOO975AO08 speaking of his plans for undercutting "Jaganism" on a long-term basis, Burnham told the consul general he wants independence within eight months so as to be unhampered by Britain's "undue concern for fair play." He is sending an emissary to the UN next week to try to win Afro-Asian support and undermine any appeals Jagan may make there. He also wants to increase his visit to Washington.1 25X1 25X1 12 Dec 64 DAILY BRIEF 2 25X1 Approved For Release 2003/04/11 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO08000340001-5 Next 3 Page(s) In Document Exempt Approved For Release 2003/04/11 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO08000340001-5 Approved For Release 2003/04/11 : CIA-RDP79TO0975AO08000340001-5 JORDAN VALLEY DEVELOPMENT 0 10 20Miles F r^ 0 10 20 Kilometers Demilitarized Zone Development Projects Proposed Arab Counterdiversion Projects (Alignment Schematic X Syrian Construction Site %i RESERVOI o Beersheba ' 4.

He pictured the United States as the world's principal colonialist power and Cuba as its most un- compromising opponent. His references to US-Cuban relations were'cast in the familiar Castroist pattern-- 25X1 Cuba has let it be known that it wants oeace but in r,-- turn is being subjected to aggressions and violations ~e i nt Syria-Israel: On about I December the Syrians began constructing a canal to divert Jordan River head- waters--the first visible step toward implementing Arab plans to deprive Israel of water for its own di- version project. The Syrian earthmoving operations are easily observable from Israel, but thus far have not brought any Israeli reaction. In the past, Prime Minister Eshkol has warned that Israel would oppose such "illegal measures" and would "act for the Pres- ervation of its vital rights.11 12 Dec 64 DAILY BRIEF 25X1 Apprc THE PRESIDENT Executive Offices of the White House Special Counsel to the President The Special Assistant for National Security Affairs The Scientific Adviser to the President The Director of the Budget 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 Commander in Chief, Atlantic The Director, Defense Intelligence Agency The Director, 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 National Aeronautics and Space Administration The Administrator 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 Approv - 000340001-5 Approved For Release f94/gEZ"EFf9T00975AO08000340001-5 Approved For Releaserf604St(2I 79T00975AO08000340001-5
