Malaysia 3. Arab States 4, West Germany INFORMATION AS OF 1030 EST 50X1 This morning's strike some 80 miles south of Hanoi destroyed the Dong Thong bridge, according to pilot reports. The Thanh Hoa bridge was still intact. No significant new political develop- ments have been reported. A resurgence of communal violence in Singapore and on the mainland is causing serious concern among local authorities. Limited Arab military moves along Israeli borders appear to be continuing. These deployments still seem to be de- fensive and precautionary, reflecting con- cern over possible Israeli military action to halt Arab diversion of the Jordan river headwaters. Bonn is hoping to put off the formal establishment of diplomatic relations with Israel as long as possible in order to give the Arabs a chance to cool off. The Germans are concerned, however, that too much stalling may irritate the Israelis. A West German representative is returning to Tel Aviv next week to talk things over.
