DAILY BRIEF
9 SEPTEMBER 1935
1. India-Pakistan
A major battle may be shaping up in
the Punjab.
Pakistan claims that its troops have
advanced 13 miles into Indian territory
east of Lahore. These claims are prob-
ably exaggerated, but it does appear that
thePakistanis have now launched a coun-
teroffensive in this area,
neither the Indian First
Armored Division nor the Pakistani First
Armored Division have yet been fully
committed in the hostilities. The lat-
est Pakistani move could trigger the
commitment of these and other reserve
units.
Meanwhile, Pakistan is receiving
expressions of support from other Mus-
lim countries. The Saudi King is re-
ported to have 50X1
assured Saudi officials that he will
give "strong support" to Pakistan and
will try to rally other Muslim countries
to Pakistan's side.
He will offer safe haven at Saudi
airfields for Pakistani aircraft if
needed. The Iranian foreign minister
is in Ankara to discuss Pakistan's re-
quest for military aid and Tehran feels
that at least token support is neces-
sary to prevent Pakistan from turning
from Western ties. The Turks too are
under pressure to provide Pakistan with
material aid.
U Thant is now in Rawalpindi and
plans to go to India on Saturday. He ex-
pects to return to New York next Tues-
day.

There are new reports of pending
changes in Soviet leadership. The most
recent is that the 70-year-old Mikoyan
is to be retired from his post as chair-
man of the Presidium of the Supreme So-
viet. This could trigger a series of
other high-level changes.
Finnish leaders who have close con-
nections in Moscow told Ambassador Thomp-
son earlier this week that they doubt
the Brezhnev-Kosygin combine will continue
for long.
Complaints against the US are sure
to be featured in the coming election
campaign. The most pressing issue is
US attempts to control exports by Cana-
dian subsidiaries of US companies. r
The
election has been set for 8 November.

President Garcia Godoy asked this
morning for military assistance in help-
ing him force the still intransigent Gen-
eral Wessin to leave the country. The
Inter-American Peace Force has been au-
thorized to help.
This afternoon, the force commanders,
Generals Alvim and Palmer, called on Wes-
sin to urge him to depart. We have as
yet no word on the outcome of this en-,
counter.
Wessin apparently reneged on a prom-
ise to accept a foreign assignment which
he made last night to Garcia Godoy. Gar-
cia Godoy, who has committed the prestige
of his week-old regime to securing Wes-
sin's departure, has been assured of the
backing of the principal armed forces
chiefs.
An extremist-led rally scheduled for
tomorrow could spark serious Violence in
the present atmosphere of political un-
rest and financial crisis. The rally is
to be led by a defrocked priest who has
been inciting rebellion. It has Commu-
nist support.
Communists have been seeking to ex-
ploit the growing strikes by teachers and
other government employees. The strikers
have thus far rejected extremist offers
of help, but their determination to ob-
tain redress of economic grievances could
lead to a change in this policy.
Discussions between Brazilian and
Argentine military leaders on contingency
plans should Communists threaten nearby
regimes have aroused concern in Uruguay
and Chile. Brazilian and Argentine mili-
tary spokesmen felt compelled this week
to deny that there has been any "written"
pact. Nevertheless, military of both
countries are likely to continue these
talks.
