NOTES TO DDCI
21 April 1964
1. OSI reports in a memo to the Director that Khrushchev's
promise to curtail production at two Soviet reactors may pertain
to the two new reactors of about 1500 megawatts each, which are
known to be under construction at Tomsk and which we estimate
will become operational in 1966-67. If this is the case, construc-
tion will be suspended
If older plants are involved, a reduction in the rate of production
will be much more difficult to confirm.
2. General Depuy, the new J-3 in MACV was here in head-
quarters yesterday for bri6fings of Colby and Co. He was briefed
in some detail on the second of the two recommendations '44
and seemed enthralled.
4. OCI has done an extensive memo on the current dissidence
in the Southern Celebes vch ich is giving the Indonesian governme nt
so much difficulty. This has been an area for active rebellion and
dissidence since 1945 Indonesian authorities arranged a truce with
the rebels in 1961 but as since resumed and at present there are
an estimated 3, 000 armed rebels. Indonesia is using at least 7, 000
men against this trouble. Sukarno is blaming the British for stirring

8. As you no doubt noticed in a recent cable, it appears that
we have a solution to the problem of financing the 34-A facilities

May.

a. The intensity of recent Viet Cong activities
in the delta is beginning to show in terms of overall
government personnel losses. A total of 1, 000 casual-
tie s for the period 11-18 April - -the highest weekly total
on record--was cited today in a Saigon press report,
which quoted figures released by a US military spokesman.
b. "Accordin g to the MACV weekly report, clear
and hold operations are underway in Go Cong and Hau Nghia
Provinces. This is our first indication that pacification
efforts are actually being carried out in these provinces,
although MACV SITREP's have hinted at clear and hold
operations in progress. Clear and hold activities appear
to be at a standstill in Binh Duong and Tay Ninh Provinces
(near Saigon) --in Binh Duong because of a lack of direction by
province chief and the ARVN division commander (who is
said to have little regard for the pacification effort), and in
Tay Ninh because of a shortage of ARVN soldiers. "
