The French contended that acceptance of any preconditions for a conference would only lead to counter conditions, thus effectively nullifying any pos- sibility that a conference could actually be convened. In the reply, Paris repeated its position that peace can be re-established in Vietnam only by an interna- tional conference based on the principles of the 1954 or 1962 Geneva agreements' Commenting on the De Gaulle-Vinogradov meeting, the former French ambassador to Moscow, Maurice De Jean, stated that he assumed De Gaulle had. made clear that the French rejection of preconditions was directed. at the "ridiculous Chinese demand that the US quit Southeast Asia beforehand." 4 March 65 %j Approved For ra ease 203702727 : - 0001-6 25X1 25X1 Approved For Release 2003/02/27 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO08200040001-6 Next 2 Page(s) In Document Exempt Approved For Release 2003/02/27 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO08200040001-6 Approved For elease 2003/02/27 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO082000 0001-6 25X1 . j iii/ i %% ai ~/ Y / *USSR: The Soviet Government's decree restoring a ministerial form of organization over its defense industries reverses another of Khrushchev's major reforms. The industries involved are aviation, shipbuild- ing, defense (largely ground armaments), radio elec- tronics, atomic energy, and general machine building (function unknown). These industries in recent years had been transferred from a centralized ministerial system of administration to a system of state com- mittees. Khrushchev sponsored this move in order to break up the entrenched industrial bureaucracies in Moscow. The new decree will probably be por- trayed as a step to improve the administration of this key area of the economy. It does not appear to signal an increase in the influence of the military establish- ment. Although the full implications of this action are uncertain, it is presumed that these ministries will recover the responsibilities for plant management and control of supplies that they had lost. The re- organization, however, does not necessarily fore- shadow similar changes in all branches; other deci- sions by the new regime suggest increased local direction of consumer-oriented. industries. Indications appeared. immediately following Khru- shchev's ouster that changes in the administration of industry were being discussed. Proposals for a re- turn to a ministerial system were made in the press in early December and the question was the subject (continued) 4 March 65 Approved For 25X1 Approved For Re ease 2003/02/27 CIA-RDP79T00975AO0820004 01-6 of some controversy at the session of the Supreme Soviet later that month. The fact that a decision of - fecting at least one major part of economic adminis- tration has now been made might indicate that the power balance in the leadership has begun to shift, but it is still too early to pinpoint the personalities in the leadership involved. The changes have no apparegt relation to the current international situation. 12111 25 '4 25X1 CBecause of the shortage of time for preparation of this item, the analytic interpretation presented here has been produced by the Central Intelligence Agency without the participation of the Bureau of intelligence and Research, Department of State-or of the Defense Intelligence Agency, Department of Defense;] 4 March 65 8 A/M Approved For Rel ase - 001-6 25X'' 25X1 Approved For Release 2003/02/27 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO08200040001-6 Next 2 Page(s) In Document Exempt Approved For Release 2003/02/27 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO08200040001-6 j Approved For 25X1 Tanzania-Germany: President Nyerere is still maneuvering around the problem of Tanzania's rela- tions with West and East Germany. Earlier this week he "rejected" West German economic aid in retaliation for Bonn's withdrawal of its military training mission in Tanzania. Nyerere has told a foreign journalist that he has no intention of granting diplomatic recognition to East Germany, but he may well permit an East German Consulate General either in Dar es Salaam or Zanzibar. Bonn withdrew the training mission because Nyerere would not give assurances that the juris- diction of the East German Consulate General would be restricted to Zanzibar, where it was first estab- lished as an embassy before the union of Zanzibar with Tanganyika. Nyerere's latest argument for Western consumption is that, having "ousted" the West Germans, he can decide about the East Germans without being accused of knuckling under to Bonn. Meanwhile, rumors are floating as to who will replace the West German military mission. Polish and Czech officials in Tanzania reportedl have said that they would be willing to fill the gap, he Cana- dians, however, have stated that Tanzania has asked them to take overjThe West German mission left behind all its equipment, including eight aircraft and four patrol boats, 4 Mar 65 Approved For Release 2003/02/27 : CIA-RDP79T00975A008200 40001-6 j p i 4 25X11 25 d F 0 A pprove o j j EEC: The 2 March agreement to merge the exec- utives of the three European communities is important primarily for its psychological impact and its contri- bution to administrative efficiency.,?) he effect of the merger is to bring under the purview of a single commission seated in Brussels the executive and. policy-forming prerogatives pres- ently exercised by the EEC and EURATOM commis- sions and the Coal-Steel Community High Authority,] he combined. executive should have greater prestige and. influence than its predecessors, and, Brussels will be more firmly established as the com- munity's administrative center. Several important European institutions will still be housed in Luxem- bourg, however, and as long as the European Parlia- ment is in Strasbourg the community will be lacking a true "capital.' he reasons for France's recent support of a move which enhances the Brussels "bureaucracy" are not entirely clear. Executive merger will, however, pave the way for consideration of combining the three community treaties--during the course of which Paris is expected to try to water down their supranational features. It would, of course, require the consent of the other five members to do this. -I 25X U I 4 March 65 12 Approved For Release 2003/02/27: CIA-RDP79T00975A00820 040001-6 MME Approved For Release 2003/02/27 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO08200040001-6 25X1 Approved For Release 2003/02/27 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO08200040001-6 Approved For 9 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 F 25X1 25X1 Approved For Reba 2003(tJ : SfE-tSf7@:Tf0975AOO.WO040001-6 Approved For Release 20tiGbl127S?
