MEMORANDUM FOR: The Honorable
W. F. Raborn,
Director,
Central Intelligence Agency
Subject: Request for a SNIE on Communism in Indonesia
The Under Secretary of State has requested the
preparation of a SNIE on Indonesia for Dubmission to the
USIB on September 9. The Under Secretary recognizes that
the current NIE, approved by USIB in July, still adequately
reflects prevailing political conditions in Indonesia. He
would, however, like a study that focuses specifically on
the danger presented by Indonesian communism. The SNIE
should examine the possibility of a Communist-oriented
government coming to power in Djakarta, the impact of such
a development within Indonesia, and its effects on power
alignments and political trends in the Far East.
