DAILY BRIEF
*USSR: One result of the Soviet-Polish talks last
week end may have been a decision to proceed with the
mid-December Communist preparatory meeting in
Moscow.
'rhe brief 25 October communique stated that
Brezhnev, Kosygin, Gomulka, and Cyrankiewicz had
reached "complete identity of views" on the further
development of Soviet-Polish party and state relations.
initely will take place on
that the Poles will attend...7
the Moscow meeting def-
ecember as planned and
the purpose of the
December meeting will be to reeze" the Sino-Soviet
conflict, not to push it to the limit.
while this understanding was a great relief to e o es,
they recognize that the ba is reasons underlying the
conflict remain unchanged
lrhese remarks suggest that the new/Soviet lead-
ers offered assurances that they would not use the
December meeting to aggravate the split with China.
They may also have shown willingness to modify the
terms of the conference and to mute polemics. Khru-
shchev, while also disclaiming any intention to "ex-
communicate" the Chinese, apparently intended to use
this meeting to demonstrate that Peiping, by refusing
to attend, had in effect excluded itself from the Commu-
nist community.

The apparent decision to proceed with the Decem-
ber meeting reflects the new Soviet leaders' concern
that if it were canceled or postponed the Chinese would
exploit this as a major victory over the USSR.
Moscow faces delicate problems on the Chinese
question in the current consultations with foreign
Communist delegations. The Italian Communists re-
portedly will urge that the December meeting be
postponed and that discussions be started on means
of resolving the conflict with China.

Communist China:
Peiping 's next nuclear test is sc e u e or Marc
1965 and will be "much largef' than the first explo-
sion.
In a joint communique Keita signed
with the North Vietnamese in Hanoi on 22 October,
he "warmly welcomed" the test and hailed it as a
"great success:!

T e hinese may also be concerne over

about the same time as the second "Bandung" confer-
ence, scheduled for Algiers next spring)
Fhe prediction that the second test will be larger
than the first suggests the Chinese are confident that
they can improve the efficiency of their next test de-
vice, possibly by using both plutonium and U-235. It
is believed that both of these will be available in suf-
ficient quantity for a test by next March)

India: The Congress Working Committee, the
top policy making body of the Congress Party, has
reaffirmed the party's intention to keep India's nuclear
program geared to peaceful purposes. The committee
has commissioned Foreign Minister Singh, Defense
Minister Chavan, and former defense minister Krishna
Menon to draft a resolution on the subject for presen-
tation to a larger party meeting next month. An in-
fluential minority in India, however, advocates going
ahead with a weapons program, and even Chavan has
expressed uneasiness over the use of such words as
"never" and "forever" in a statement of India's inten-
tons.

France--MLF: CI'he French appear to be moving
toward more active opposition to the multilateral
nuclear force (MLF) and are evidently seeking ways
of dissuading the West Germans from joining. Dur-
ing a conversation in Paris on 24 October, Couve de
Murville told State Secretary Carstens the MLF would
tend to limit cooperation under the French-German
treaty and would isolate Germany from other Euro-
pean countries as well as France if it began as a hi-
lateral US-German venture!
Gabon: [Earlier reports indicating that the French
had decided to force unpopular President Mba to step
down may have been premature. French officials in
Paris evidently are.concerned lest M.ba's removal
pave the way for a takeover by radical elements and
have unfavorable repercussions among other former
French African dependencies. News of Mba's sudden
departure for Paris early this week has not yet been
published in Gabon, but his departure appears to have
become generally known?
