South Vietnam' 4. Japan 5. Cambodia 6. Communist China The new head of the Japanese Social- ist Party has asked the Communists to help stage nationwide demonstrations next Tuesday against the Sato government's pol- icies toward Vietnam and Korea. This is the first such Socialist ap- proach to the Communists since 1960. In July, control of the Socialist Party passed to men who believe that they can use these issues to forge a common front of Japan's divided left against Sato. Leaders of the largest labor federation apparently share this view. The Communists presumably will go along. Up to now popular response to these issues has been relatively light. 50X1 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003800350001-7 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003800350001-7 USSR: Major Locations on the Northern Sea ,Route)/- 9 JULY 1965 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003800350001-7 ?

Dominican Republic Soviet air and naval forces are keeping a close watch on the US Coast Guard icebreaker Northwind, noW east of Novaya Zemlya off northern Russia (see map). 50X1 The Northwind is on a survey mis- sion across the northern sea route this summer. The Soviets.normally"send naval and maritime convoys to the Soviet Far East by this route every summer. The lines are being drawn for more trouble this weekend. Leftist forces have promised fur- ther "actions" in support of Papandreou's demand that the Novas government "dis- appear from the earth." Government se- curity measures have been tightened, and Novas insists that public order will be maintained. The search for a compromise solu- tion goes on. Novas may now have the backers to survive a vote of confidence early next month, but his chances of then forging a working majority in parliament are not bright. Sentiment for an early settlement is spreading. A prominent Dominican businessman yesterday told Ambassador Bunker.that the general public and the business community are "desperate" for a quick Settlement. The businessman said that neither Imbert nor Caamano had popular support and urged the Bunker committee to apply all neces- sary pressure to end the impasse. Representatives of other groups have echoed these views, which have also been heard from the interior of the island as well as from within the rebel camp'. 50X1 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003800350001-7 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003800350001-7 TOP SECRET TOP SECRET Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003800350001-7
