*Vietnam-, (Information as of 4:30 AM EDT)
The Military Situation in South Vietnam: Fight-
ing continues in the Dong Xoal area of Pliouc Long
Province, 60 miles north of Saigon, where govern-
ment forces are still attempting to recapture the
town.
A government Ranger battalion has now reoc-
cupied the district headquarters compound and re-
captured two artillery pieces seized by the Viet
Cong. The Viet Cong force involved, now estimated
as a full regiment, had successfully chewed up two
waves of an earlier relief force as it debarked from
helicopters in the landing zone.
Casualties in the action are not yet fully known,
particularly among the 250-300 South Vietnamese in
the garrison at the time of the attack, but losses are
believed heavy. Of 20 US personnel in Dong Xoai
when attacked, 13 wounded have been evacuated, one
has been confirmed killed, and six are missing and
presumed dead. Eleven other Americans are miss-
ing and probably killed in the reinforcement opera-
tions. Eight of them were crew members of two
helicopters which were destroyed. The Ranger bat-
talion now in the area has lost 30 killed and 15 wounded
sofar. The Viet Cong force is being subjected to in-
tensive air strikes in an effort to dislodge them from
the town.
Political Developments in South Vietnam- No
progress has been reported toward easing the po-
litical crisis in Saigon. Various generals, acting
under their mandate to try to reconcile opposing
factions, have been sounding out religious leaders on

with the government. The generals also discussed
the situation among themselves yesterday, but re-
portedly reached no firm decisions. Quat
told Deputy Ambassador Johnson yesterday that
there are some differences among the generals over
whether they should seek a "minimum solution" of
the cabinet deadlock or a "clean sweep. " Thus far,
twat appears to have done little to try to influence
the military's thinking
The Air Strikes in North Vietnam: On 10 June,
US aircraft struck the army barracks at Chap Le
and Vinh, a supply depot at Vinh, and the Co Dinh
thermal power plant. The damage inflicted on these
targets varied from moderate to heavy. One US
Navy aircraft crashed and burned during the attack
on the power plant. The pilot is presumed lost.
US armed route reconnaissance missions flown
on 10 June were hampered by poor weather. Pilots
report, however, that eight bridges were damaged
or destroyed, a ferry and two radar sites were
damaged, and about 16 buildings at the Muong Sen
supply depot near the Laos border were hit. No
road traffic was observed.

*Dominican Republic: (Information as of 4:30 AM
EDT) The rebels are E ensifying their psychological
offensive by charging that Imbert's forces have com-
mitted new atrocities and appealing for loyalist mili-
tary defections.
About 40 persons may have been killed near the
town of Villa Mella, north of Santo Domingo, between
22 May and 5 June. Loyalist military leaders are
denying any complicity in the mass executions, but
rebel accusations have put Imbert on the defensive.
US Embassy officials believe that some of the execu-
tions were carried out by loyalist military and police
to avenge rebel atrocities committed during the early
days of the insurrection.
The new allegations of loyalist atrocities may
prompt the UN Security Council to re-examine the
effectiveness of the Organization of American States
(OAS) in the Dominican crisis. The OAS Human Rights
Commission is currently investigating the executions
and OAS Secretary General Mora reportedly wants a
committee of criminologists to assist the commission.
In a recorded speech broadcast yesterday after-
noon, Juan Bosch cited the Villa Mella incident as
demonstrating that "the final hour of the generals is
near." He urged the rank and file of the loyalist mili-
tary to go over to the rebel side before it was too
late. Rebel army chief Lora Fernandez, in a similar
appeal on Wednesday, promised that deserters from
Imbert's forces would not be punished for their earlier
"mistakes."
Meanwhile, mobile Dominican police units are
being deployed to three provincial capitals to deal with
any pro-rebel demonstrations and violence that might
occur in the interior on 14 June. Yesterday a rebel
newspaper stated that the date would be an appropriate
one for a "spontaneous mobilization of the masses." At
the same time, however, the newspaper prepared the
grounds for the mobilization's failure by charging that
the US Embassy was trying to provoke incidents which
would result i re ressive measures by the Imbert

 In a recent address to the Defense Institute, Sukarno
suggested for "further study" the creation of a "fifth
armed force" composed of volunteers. This presum-
ably is a variant of the Communist demand for the arm-
ing of "peasants and workers" to which the army has
made some concessions in Sumatra.
In a speech to the Communist Party Central Com-
mittee in mid-May, party chairman Aidit proposed that
NASAKOM councils be established for each of the armed
forces to supervise military subordination to state policy.
Subsequently, an unidentified Communist official was
quoted as saying that the idea is to develop a "political
commissar system," similar to that in Communist
countries, which would operate between national and
area command levels.

Indonesia: Sukarno is continuing to exert relatively
quiet but steady pressure to bring the army into line
with his leftist policies.
On 1 June he opened a ten-day indoctrination course
for 16,000 national and provincial civil and military of-
ficials in "NASAKOM-ism"--the philosophy of promot-
ing the collaboration of nationalist, religious, and Com-
munist elements within the government. This indoctri-
nation course is in addition to the program of the De-
fense Institute, where Communists are regular lectur-
ers, and to other indoctrination courses for both civil
and military officials given by the Communist-domi-
nated National Front and KOTRAR, the NASAKOM-ized
"Supreme Command for Retooling the Apparatus of the
Revolution."

The only effective, although diminishing, anti-Com-
munist army activity is in the provinces. In North
Sumatra, where the Communists have made rapid prog-
ress toward controlling the province, the army is at-
tempting to keep going at least one anti-Communist
newspaper and has plans for anti-Communist political
activity. In East Java, where there still appears to
be a grass-roots Muslim offensive against the Commu-
nists, the army and police have not yielded to leftist

Rumania: The recently issued draft of the revised
statutes of the Rumanian Communist Party illustrates 0
'
d
the party
s nationalist outlook.
The statutes specifically charge that the army is
to be educated for "defending revolutionary victories,
the nation's borders, independence, national sover-
eignty, and peace."
0
The revised statutes also appear intended to estab-
lish a basis for the further evolution of Rumanian na-
tional Communism. The preamble now states that the
party "bases all its activity on Marxist-Leninist learn-
ing, applied creatively to the conditions and specific
peculiarities of our country."
The draft includes a number of features presently
unique to the Yugoslav party, the pioneer of national
Communism. For example, the party chief is desig-
nated secretary general, candidate party member-
ship has been eliminated, and party members are
limited to "only one post of political leadership....
whether in the party or state organs."
The draft statutes are to be formally approved
at the Rumanian party's Fourth Congress, scheduled
to open on 19 July.

NOTES
East Germany - Berlin: The East Germans, pre-
sumably with Soviet assent or encouragement, are trying
to undercut Four Power rights to exclusive use of Berlin
airspace. The eighth in a series of East German heli-
copter flights in the Berlin Control Zone since 23 March
occurred yesterday, when an East German aircraft
penetrated airspace over the US Sector. On 9 June
East German helicopters made two complete circuits
of the borders around West Berlin and interfered with
the landing patterns over the British airfield at Gatow.
On both days the helicopters were observed landing in
East Berlin at Johannisthal airfield--inactive for many
years--for servicing.
s mir: LI-he cans are becoming increasing-Ly
aggressive along the cease-fire line in Kashmir, accord-
ing to a member of the UN Observer Group. On 6 June
the Indian Army occupied additional Pakistani territory
in the Kargil area, where in mid-May it overran several
Pakistani outposts. UN observers have been told by the
Indian commander that he has no intention of withdrawing
and in fact may further expand his perimeter. These Indian
attacks, which may be in part a retaliation for the continued
Pakistani military presence in the Rann of Kutch, seem
likely in turn to rovoke Pakistani action at some other point
along the line.]
