DAILY BRIEF
1 April 1967
1. Vietnam
2. Greece
There has been a parade of po-
litical leaders to the palace, but
so far no one has been named to form
a new government.

5. Egypt
6. Netherlands
Aware that his time for private
discussion with President Johnson will
be limited at Punta del Este, President
Robles is thinking seriously of sug-
gesting a follow-up meeting in Wash-
ington to continue canal talks.
Soviet Foreign Minister Gromyko
ends his three-day visit with Nasir
today. Even the tight-lipped Gromyko
has been unusually secretive about
this trip, but we suspect Nasir's eco-
nomic practices figured prominently in
the talks. For one thing, the Soviets
are not anxious to be left holding the
bag for Cairo's wheat needs. Gromyko
may very well have warned Nasir not to
throw away his access to PL 480.
After a six-week search, the
Queen may soon have a new prime min-
ister--Petrus De Jong, defense minister
in the outgoing cabinet. If De Jong is
successful in forming a government, and
his chances look good, the new defense
minister is likely to be a Liberal. In
that case, the net effect would be pres-
sure for reducing Dutch commitments to
NATO.

7. Communist China
8. Burma
The Chinese are conniving with
Japanese firms to buy scientific equip-
ment useful in advanced weapons work.
Refugees from the turmoil of Com-
munist China's Cultural Revolution
have been crossing into Burma in
gradually increasing numbers since
the first of the year.
Between 1,500 and 3,000 are esti-
mated to have entered Burma along one
40-mile stretch of the border north of
Lashio. Some Chinese Communist soldiers
also have 'fled to Burma. :The Burmese
are rounding up all the refugees they
can catch and sending them back to
China, but it is almost impossible to
police the entire mountainous border.
. Many of the refugees will join the
various insurgent bands that have op-
erated in this rugged area for years.
