DAILY BRIEF
1 JUNE 1965
1. Dominican Republic
2. Egypt
Imbert this afternoon launched a
major political initiative designed to
garner increased domestic and foreign
support and undercut the rebels. In a
talk with the US ambassador and Secre-
tary General Mora, Imbert and his col-
leagues offered to turn over to the Or-
ganization of American States the de-
cision to fix the date and nature of
elections, and the entire responsibil-
ity for their conduct. The group spe-
cifically accepted the participation of
all democratic parties, including those'
of Bosch and Balaguer.
The Imbert group has also agreed to
neutralization of the National Palace--
which has all along been a bone of con-
tention with the rebels--and sent off a
telegram to the Organization of American
States requesting the continued presence
of Mora.
No report on the reaction of the
Caamano group to these fast-breaking de-
velopments has come in.
The generally quiet security situa-
tion remained unruffled today.
Nasir apparently feels beleaguered
and somewhat on the defensive in the Arab
world at the moment.
In a speech yesterday, Nasir referred
frequently to the "campaign of contradic-
tions between Arab states." In a rare
moment of frankness and in an effort to
emphasize that now is not the time to
fight Israel, he rather exactly identi-
fied the strength of his military involve-
ment in the Yemen at 50,000 troops.

There is still no good evidence that
North Vietnamese regular units took part
in the recent fighting, around Ba Gia in
Quang Ngai Province which resulted in gov-
ernment casualties unofficially estimated
at 400 to 600 killed, wounded, or missing.'
(See map.) According to late reports,
counterattacking government units have 50X1
not yet re-established contact with the
-Communist force.
In Saigon, the impasse over Premier
Quat's cabinet changes continues. TO
move it along, Quat is attempting to
pressure Suu by threatening a public
statement implying that Suu's over zeal-
ous legalism is forcing,Quat to retain
incompetents in office.
Ambassador Taylor comments that the
longer the dispute drags on, the more
it seems likely, to jeopardize Quat's
chances for Survival.
Militant Catholics are pressing for
Quat's removal. From Hue, influential
Buddhist leader Tri Quang:has let it be,
known that any"concessions" by Quat in
these circumstances will lead to a strong
Buddhist"reaction." In these circum-
stances there are signs that pressure
for another military intervention is
growing.

AMoscow has taken.another step in
its efforts to reassert its influence
in Asia at Peiping's expense, On 31 May,
TASS announced that agreement. been
reached for a military aid program to
North Korea.
This.apparently:isa follow-up..to
Kosygin's visit to, North Korea in Febru-
ary, after his much-heralded visit to
Hanoi. There is so far no information
on what is involved.
Military aid shipments to North Ko-
rea were heavy, during the 1950s, bUt
tailed off after:1961 as North Korea
leaned toward China in the Sino-Soviet
dispute.
