CIA-RDP79T00975AO080 0350001-4 25X1fd South Vietnam: The lluong government may soon face renewed dissidence among ethnic minorities in the central highlands, in addition to its other problems. Y Bham, a leader of the Rhade tribe who has been in hiding since September, recently proclaimed an autonomous government in the highlands and is now reported to be seeking recognition and aid from abroad. Last month he reportedly sent appeals to fellow tribesmen, including those in government camps, for recruits to form up to two battalions. N I 25X1 25X1 Vietnamese officials suspect that Y Bham is operating from the Cambodian side of the border with some official Cambodian andlrencI7support. There are also reports that the Viet Cong are ac- tively encouraging tribal disaffection, and some signs that a tacit cease-fire agreement has existed since September between the Viet Cong and Rhade tribesmen in some government camps. I here is grow- ing sympathy for the Viet Cong in government Special Forces camps. Most tribesmen, however, still ap- pear to be waiting to see whether the Huong govern- ment in Saigon gains any strength and whether Gen- eral Khanh's recent promises of special aid to the DAILY BRIEF I 1 -2 25X1 Approved r Release 2002/07/23: CIA-RDP79T00975A008 00350001-4 25X1 n .,..,...... ....a .... ~,. ~,.,...,. nnnnIn7In7 /'In I 7n TAnn7G n nn Onnn9 AAAA A /'7 J11 P// Kashmir: Pakistan is seeking means to counter India's ecent announcement of additional measures to integrate Kashmir into India. 25X1 25X1 akistan has already delivered a strong protest against the new integration moves, after laying down the usual propaganda barrage. President Ayub may also call for more militant agitation in the Kashmir area itself. His need to bolster his popularity before Pakistan's presidential elections, which are scheduled for 2 January, would give him special reason for a strong stand just now. His regime is under fire for its heavy-handed sup- pression of student demonstrations, which seem to be spreading throughout the country. There are likely to be good opportunities in Kashmir for developing anti-Indian agitation. Ten- sion there could easily increase around 26 December, the first anniversary of the theft of a celebrated Mus- lim relic which set off religious rioting in both India and East Pakistan. [Domestic conditions in India might cause the Shastri government- -which still lacks the authority enjoyed by Nehru--to react sharply to any Pakistani 25X1 25X1 25X1 V 0 14 Dec 64 DAILY BRIEF 0 Approved F r Release 2002/07/23: CIA-RDP79T00975A008 00350001-4 25X 01: Ai3i3roved Fc r Release 2002/07/23 CIA-RDP79TOO975AO08 00350001-4 25X1 -ion NOTES I M MIN/m/0/1111/i f 0 ?//. 25X1 culture and raising livin~y, standards, electric power industries, and "other branches of heavy industry."

Eshkol will almost certainly survive, as two opposi- tion parties have already indicated they will abstain if necessary to defeat the motion. However, the conflict may precipitate the resignation of two cabi- net ministers and Deputy Defense Minister Shimon Peres, all of whom still support Ben-Gurion.

The Peronists will exploit the arrest of the CGT secretary general to gain adherents to the strike order. Whether or not the non-Peronist unions agree to support the strike, the Peronists can shut down the major industries and add to the rising tensions caused by their campaign for Peron's return before the end of the year. 25X1 j 14 Dec 64 DAILY BRIEF 5 25X1 Approved F r Release 2002/07/23 : CIA-RDP79T00975A0080 0350001-4 Approved Fo%,Pele se 2002/07/23 : CIA-RDP79T0 9008000350001-4 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 Approved For Releas - 25X1 25X1 Approved For R ease 157/ ER{ P1?9T0097^8000350001-4 Approved For Releasff-U2 i'0 CPR-jgP79T00975A008000350001-4
