*Dominican Republic: (Information as of 4:30 AM
EDT Santo Domingo remains quiet as a number of
influential Dominicans begin urging a middle-ground
solution.
Although many middle and upper class people
gravitate toward the Imbert regime as the better of
two choices, it is increasingly evident that a number
of responsible Dominicans are opposed to a govern-
ment led either by Imbert or by anyone on the rebel
side.
Respected businessmen and professionals from
both Santo Domingo and Santiago have visited the US
Embassy within the past two days urging a "non-
political" solution,
25X1
The politically important Reformist Party of
Joaquin Balaguer has backed away from its earlier
position of tacit support for a compromise formula
while remaining vehemently opposed to Imbert. A
high-ranking party leader yesterday expressed strong
preference for an apolitical middle-ground regime
that would call for the earliest possible elections un-
der the auspices of the Organization of American
States. The party believes that former President
Balaguer would now win in an honest election. Bala-
guer's party is, in fact, the only Dominican political
party with a strength rivaling that of Juan Bosch's
Dominican Revolutionary Party.

Meanwhile the contendin-- factions in the divided
capital retain their intransigent positions and both the
Imbert and rebel camps continue to publicly denounce
outside interference in Dominican affairs.
The commander of the Inter-American Armed
Force, Brazilian General Hugo Panasco Alvim, is
scheduled to arrive in Santo Domingo today. It is ex-
pected that the Paraguayan Government will announce
soon its decision to send a contingent of about 173
troops.

Bolivia: Government attention is returning to the
mining region now that urban areas are calm. The junta
has renewed its military drive to take and secure the
tin mines not yet under government control. It is ex-
pected that military operations will resume this week.
Junta co-president Barrientos appears to have achieved
a temporary political respite by his a intment of
General Ovando as junta co-president. 25X1

Arab States - Israel: z Israel's retaliatory raids
into Jordan on the night of 27-28 May probably will
sharpen differences among the neighboring Arab
states on dealing with Israeli
/Israel's attacks against three alleged terrorist
bases in Jordan were reprisals for two incidents of
sabotage in Israeli border settlements earlier this
week. These bombings almost certainly were the
work of the terrorist organizations called "Fatih.' 7

Gurion who is challenging his leadership)
The Israelis normally retaliate for Arab attacks
only when Israelis have been killed, which did not
happen this week. Prime Minister Eshkol may have
taken such a tough position in order to avoid any
charges of softness from former prime minister Ben-

UK-NATO: LBritain, apparently plans to raise ques-
tions at the 31 May meeting of defense ministers in
Paris that will pose the issue of revising NATO strategy..
[Defense Minister Healey told US Embassy officials
in London that he will advocate a shift in emphasis from
preparing for an all-out land war in Europe to deterring
or dealing with border and other local incidents. This
revision apparently would be aimed at Britain's often
expressed goal of raising the threshold of nuclear es-
calation in E rope and reducing the number of troops re-
quired there
ealey, who said he considers it highly undesirable
to have a "theological debate" on strategy during the
meeting, apparently thinks he can present Britain's
views without precipitating such a debate. At least the
French, however, almost certainly would feel it nec-
essary to advance their views once the subject was
opened
tIealey discussed giving greater authority to SACEUR
in the control, deployment, and use of nuclear weapons
but did not indicate that he would raise this subject at
the meeting. In order to meet German concern, he
now thinks SACEUR should have a strategic nuclear de-
livery system under his control]
[This system, Healey believes, should be the Atlan-
tic Nuclear- Force proposed by Britain last December
and still being considered by a working group. If this
opinion is shared by his government, it signifies a re-
versal of Britain's opposition to committing such a .
force to SACEUR, and a concession to German desires
on the subjects Healey stated that he believed the force
under SACEUR control should include a US contribution
preferably Polaris submarines.

UK - Trucial States: (In attempting to forestall
extension of Egyptian influence in the Persian Gulf,
Britain is offering the Trucial States Development
Fund $2.8 million, in addition to the $680,000 already
budgeted. London probably will insist that two of the
states, Sharjah and Ras al-Khayma,,first retract
their invitations to the Arab League to set up local
offices. The British say that Saudi Arabia is also
willing to contribute $2.8 million to the fund if Arab
League offices are barred from the Trucial States.
The protectorates may nevertheless stand firm in
the hope of obtainin more aid from the Arab League
in the long runoff
