DAILY BRIEF
22 MAY 1965
Dominican Republic
LATE ITEM
According to press reports, General
Imbert has refused to extend the truce,
which ended at 1:00 p.m. EDT. The junta's
announcement of its refusal did not say
whether a full-scale resumption of the
fighting is in prospect. This leaves:
.doubt about Imbert's immediate intentions.
Imbert has still not turned over 2 the
radio station his forces have occupied to
the Organization of American States repre-
sentatives. The station is dontinuing to
broadcast statements to the effect that
a loyalist push against the rebel-held
downtown area is in the works.
Another rebel attack on a police post
in the interior took place at 2:30 a.m.
EDT this morning. Like the two earlier
incidents, it failed. These raids may
foreshadow a full-fledged rebel effort
to start a guerrilla campaign in the
interior.

? The Barrientos government has moved
vigorously to put down its labor troubles.
Yesterday it arrested most of the
major labor leaders who have been instru-
mental in keeping the antigovernment gen-
eral strike alive. The junta has also de-
clared that the leading posts in the
various unions were now vacant.
The reaction of the rank and file to
these moves has been slow in developing.
Previously some urban workers had begun
to drift back to new jobs and there were
reports that many tin miners were not dis-
posed to stay out on strike indefinitely.
No new student outbreaks have been
reported, but the situation remains
tense.
The government is keeping large num-
bers of security troops visible On the
streets as a means of dissuading the stu-
dents from more violence.
US officials in Bogota believe that
the remedial actions taken by the authori-
ties have gained general acceptance from
the man in the street.
Unidentified local terrorists yes-
terday machine-gunned and killed Guate-
mala's vice minister of defense on the
streets of the capital city.

6. Canada
/US officials
have taken precautionary measures.
Negotiations with the French for the
sale of 50,000 tons of Canadian uranium
oxide are in the final stages. The major
roadblock still to be overcome is the
French refusal to agree to the usual safe-
guards that the uranium will be used only
for peaceful purposes. Ottawa could turn
a little soft on this issue in order to
protect a major mining industry.
