1?,. Cuba-USSR
2. Cuba-
missile sites
a. ?We believe Cuba is probably.
getting IL-28 twin jet light bombers.
The IL-28 has a combat radius of
about 700 miles with a bomb load of
4400 pounds and external fuel tanks;
its top speed is around 400 mph.
b. aJ
Soviet ship which arrived in Cuba
about 1 October
carrying ten aircraft crates identi-
cal to the distinctive, specially
designed crates used to ship IL-28s
c. Several weeks would be
required before these bombers could
be assembled and made operable.
d. We have one shaky piece
of evidence suggesting that
Spanish-speaking pilots are receiv-
ing training in the IL-28 in the
USSR.
a.
two more surface-to-air missile
sites, making a total of twenty.
b. At least some, possibly
many of these sites could now be
operational, but we are not sure
of this yet.

d. There is no evidence yet
that Cubans are receiving training
in any of the military equipment
associated with the missile installa-
tions in Cuba. (
e. Cuban per-
sonnel are being excluded from the
missile sites suggest that
security preparations may not yet
be far enough along in Cuba.
f. In any case, we believe
the sites in Cuba will be made
operational as soon as construction
is finished, with Soviet personnel
running them during the rather long
(a year or more) transition to full
operation by Cubans.

0. Cuba - exter-, a. The Arab delegates at the
nal relations UN have been putting concerted
pressure on Ben Bella not to go on
to Havana directly after his Wash-
ington visit. They believe they
have persuaded him.
b. He seems to be seeking a
face-saving formula, and we are
now informed he will probably
return to New York to pursue his
efforts to reconcile differences
within the Arab World.
e: The Alpha 66 raid of last
Monday was apparently ?flop, except
in the organization's press re-
leases. Cuban police reported one
i'time bomb exploded, nobody hurt.

4, Yemen
a.
Sana's leaders last
night declared war on Saudi Arabia.
b. The idea is to legitimize
the presence of UAR forces by call-
ing into play the "Jidda Pact of
1956, under which Egypt and Saudi
Arabia undertook to defend Yemen
against outside aggression.
c.
d. To expedite deliveries
to Yemen, Soviet pilots are now
flying supplies and equipment in
from Cairo in AN-12 conventional
transports which have a capacity
for upwards of SO combat-ready
troops.
Morale of the government
troops is poor.

5. Laos
a. The Pathet Lao are trying
to get Souvanna's units in the field
to back the North Vietnamese charge,
that US troops remain in
Laos.
d. The Pathet Lao have taken
violent exception to assembly's
grant of full powers to Souvanna to
govern for one year. They say the
assembly is not an assembly and has
no authority to grant such power,
but what they really mean is that
they have no intention of letting
Souvanna exercise full powers,
-.however derived.

6. Argentina
7. Brazil
e. We are worried by the fact
that the ICC team pulled out of.
Nhommarath on Monday, evidently
thinking their job was done.
a. The Peronists have set
their price for cooperation in
returning the country to consti-
tutional government.
b. Essentially they want
full freedom for political activity
including the return of Peron.
They also want a new president
installed by next May.
c. Since these demands are
totally unacceptable to most of'
the military, they will not help
Guido.
a. Trends, such as they are,
are mixed judging from early returns
(about a quarter have been tabu-
lated) in Brazil's election.
b. In Sao Paulo the conser-
vative machine is overrunning
former president Quadros. Elsewhere,
the eleven races for governor are
very close, with the conservatives
hOlding a slight edge in all but
two.

the senate are(moderates, but in at
least three cases where left extrem-
ists are running, they are ahead.

NOTES
A. East Germany Nothing was said in Berlin yesterday
when the Soviet party delegation arrived which gives
any further clue to what might be afoot within the
East German party and government.
B. USSR
C. Britain-EEC The Common Market countries are taking
a dim view of intimations from across the channel
that the British Labour Party, if and when in power,
would not feel bound by any accession agreement.
Well founded or not, their doubts will further
complicate negotiations.
D. China-India Yesterday's engagement along the
McMahon line in the Bhutan-Tibet area was the most
severe so far. It was the result, we believe, of
India's intention to
push the Chinese back from positions along the line.

USIB WATCH COMMITTEE REPORT-- 10 OCTOBER 1962
1 The United States Intelligence Board's Watch Com-
mittee this week saw no cause for altering its
conclusion that no Sino-Soviet Bloc country intends
?to initiate direct military action in the immediate
future.
2. Its report notes the combined forces maneuvers in
northeast Europe. Otherwise, however,military
?training activity and the call-up and release of
conscripts in Soviet and East European forces are
following a normal pattern.
