Finland- USSR: President Kekkonen of Finland has said
that he Is convinced that the Soviet attitude toward Finland is
hardening. He fears that the incumbent Finnish Government
will not be sufficiently "flexible," and may seek the formation
early this winter of a new government. Such a government
presumably would include the Communist-front Finnish People's
Democratic League.

Chinese Communist Withdrawal From Korea
The Chinese Communists.have announced that the third
and final phase of their withdrawal from Korea will begin
on 25 September. Remaining to be withdrawn during this
phase are about 111, 000 troops, including the Chinese Com-
munist 1st Army, two artillery divisions, an antiaircraft
artillery division, and a :rocket-launcher division. Four
armies and support units totaling about 200, 000 troops have
already been withdrawn from Korea. The 16th and 23rd
Armies were withdrawn during the first stage completed on
25 April, and the 21st and. 54th Armies withdrew during the
second stage completed on 14 August.
The repositioning of the North Korean Army, which has
a strength of about 334, 000 men, has resulted in some loss
of defensive depth, but the Chinese are maintaining strong
forces across the border and have announced. that they will
return to North Korea if hostilities are resumed. There
are at present no indications that the Communists intend to
initiate hostilities in North Korea.

Nasir May Request Western Aid to Build Aswan Dam
25X1
Nasir indicated he may go ahead with plans for the dam
without consulting the Sudan. He feels the Sudan's decision
last July to divert part of the Nile waters for a local irriga-
tion project constituted a unilateral abrogation of the 1929
agreement, and justified independent UAR action. The Sudan
declared on 20 August it would no longer abide by the agree-
ment, signed before Sudanese independence, and is seeking
a renegotiation with the UAR in an effort to secure a more
favorable division of the waters. The UAR press and radio
vigorously attacked the Sudan's announcement, and Cairo has
given no indication of willingness to meet the request for new
talks. If it maintains this attitude, its influence in the Sudan
will probably suffer.

III. THE WEST
President Kekkonen Feels Finland Must Follow Flexible
Policy Toward USSR
President Kekkonen of Finland is convinced that the
USSR's attitude toward Finland is hardening and will become
even harder in the coming year. There is no conclusive evi-
dence to support his fear, Kekkonen feels, however, that
Finland must be prepared to follow a flexible policy and to
make "tactical concessions,"
President Kekkonen and the powerful Agrarian party
have certain reservations regarding the flexibility of the in-
cumbent government and may consider it wise to replace it
with another coalition. The present cabinet, formed on 29
August, is a coalition of Social Democrats, Agrarians, Con-
servatives, Finnish Liberals, and the Swedish People's party.
The Communist-front Finnish People's Democratic League
(SKDL), the largest party in parliament, and the splinter
Social Democratic opposition are not in the government.
A new coalition would presumably include the Agrarians,
the SKDL, and the Social Democratic opposition. Such a de-
velopment is not likely to occur until early winter after the
passage of a new farm-support bill. Despite the accommoda-
tion of some Agrarian leaders to the idea of including the
SKD there would be strong opposition from the rank and
file.
