1. Cuba
a. A review of the photography
now suggests that the missile crates
at the Guerra cruise missile site
may have been there for some time.
We are checking back through our
evidence to establish when they ar-
rived.
b. High-altitude photography
shows clearing or shallow excavating
and similar work near several under-
ground facilities. We believe this
to be work to enlarge or improve fa-
duties for the storage of Cuban
military equipment.

3. West Germany
a. Adenauer's treaty of co-
operation with De Gaulle may yet
face rough sledding at home. SPD
spokesmen talk of linking ratifi-
cation with a clear statement of
support for British membership in
the Common Market and his own Chris-
tian Democrats are worried about
jeopardizing ties with the US.
b. Ambassador Bohlen's infor-
mation is that Adenauer and De Gaulle
reached "no agreement or even real
understanding" on British entry into
the Common Market; De Gaulle was
willing to leave the "impression"
of some Adenauer success. The Ger-
mans, however, still think Adenauer
has bought some time.
c. Ludwig Erhard, who may
lead the German delegation at the
Brussels talks on Monday, is now
saying the exclusion of Britain from
European policy is "unthinkable."

4. .Congo
b. Union Miniere officials are
busy planning repairs and restoring
production--destroyed railroad bridges
are the major problem. With hard
work they think they may lose only
20,000 tons of copper from the 300,000
tons they had planned for 1963.

however, until he sees the President during his state
visit to Washington 27 and 28 March.
