fire conference provide no indication that they have eodified their
previous stand on a Korean settlement or that they are prepared to
sake aoneeasions. Thu Conmunist demand for the withdrewel of all
foreign troops and the Conmunista" failure to mention guarantees
are consistent with their propaganda statements that they menelder
themselees the vietors and that their objeative is to secure the
withdrawal of UN forees. Enemy ground seelvity, including substantial
southbound ethicular truffle, indicate* that preparations for an
offensive tontinue although it does not appear imminent. Reports

3. CHlakt Although there are no indications of substantial ailitary
preparations for operations against Pormosa,, there has been a
ing floe of materiel ineo South eillAa and the Mutnese have linked
their popular drive to purahase military equipment with the
"liberation of Pormoes.' There are con tinting reports of an inerease
in OCAV training activity in South and Central China, ineluding
combined fighter and bomber air-ground training in the Shanghai area
and heavy training sctivity in the Canton area.
4. IPDOCHIlk; Although the reported movement of two Viet Minh divisions
into Annum DOW 'appears erroneous the expected rearming of Viet MInh
regiments in this area suggests that an increase in Viet Minh activity
in Annam is to be expected. A report that the Viet Minh 308th
Division Is to be rearmed from China', that Anal0810 truth companies
have beam organized to supply the Viet Minh, and that the rail lino
to the Indochina border is to be completed by the end of July provide
further evident)* of continuing Chinese suppert of the Viet Minh.
There is, however, no aeceptable evidence that a Chines* Ceamunist
invasion is Imminent or that CCP units as such are now operating in
Indoehina.
5. GERNABT-AUSTRIA1 There are no indications of significant changes
in the training or dispoeition of Soviet forces in Germany. Reports
indicate that the recant influx at Soviet troops into GerManY has
exceedwidepartures by about 50,000 and that same 100000 new troops
have arrived in Austria and Hungary, but in view of further expected
releases it is too early to assess the overall effect on troop
strength. Known rail preparations for .the World Youth Pestival in
Berlin during, August provide no indication to date that the asseibll
of rolling steak to move participants Is a cover for a possible
troop movement.

Including the first-line M1045? to the Satellites. An advance in

be a heavy bomber. There were also indications that jet aircraft
are possibly being developed for the Naval Air Force. The Air Show
indicated that the Soviets are making further progress in aircraft
development and that they are developing a variety of types of
aircraft.
CONCLUSIONS
1. The Soviet Armed Forces in being are in an advanced state of readi-
ness for war and could initiate offensive operations with no
additional warning. Military and politioal indications are that
the Communists intend to insist upon a solution of oontroversial
problems strictly along lines which further Communiat world objectives.
There are no indications that the Soviets and their Communist allies,
in pursuing their major objectives, intend. necessarily to avoid
future actions which might precipitate global hostilities.
2. Political developments provide no indication of a modification of
Communist demands for a Korean settlement, and military preparations
continue to point to a Communist intention to resume hostilities if
they fail to secure their previously announced objectives by
political means.
3. There are no firm indications of Communist preparations for major
military operations in the Far East outside the Korean theater in
the immediate future, but substantial Chinese Coortunist support of
the Viet Minh continues.
4. Available Intelligence does not indicate Soviet intentions to initiate
hostilities in Europe or the Near East in the immediate future.
There are, however, continuing military and political indications
of Soviet and Satellite preparatiOns for war. Satellite ground and
air capabilities continue steadily to increase end further progress
In Soviet aircraft development is evident.

ANALYSIS OF_INDICAT/ONd
Indications of Intentions in the Far Bast.
a. KORA
(1) Cease-fire Discussions. The Communists' propaganda and
their
announced proposals at the tease-fire discussiOns
have provided no indication that the Coormists have
modified their previous stand on a. Korean settlement or
that they are prepared to make concessions. The Communist
terms? as announced by the Peiping radio on )1 July's,
included three points: the simultaneous cessation of all
military action; the establishment of a military demarca-
tion line along the 38th Parallca and the withdrawalvf
all troops from a ten-kilometer tone an either side of
this line; and the withdrawal of all fore len troops "in
the shortest posAible time." It is noteworthy that the
Communist proposals not only made no mention of guarantees
for the enforcement of the ermlstice but also that they
assume that the withdrawal ,of rereign troops LS a military
and not a political question. . Although it is possible that
the Communiste, In initial disoussions, are making demands
which they intend later to modlfy, the, whole one of their
propaganda during the week portrayed the Communists as
victors and indicated that their objeotive in the discus-
sions was the withdrawal of UN forces. Bmadcasts from
both Pyongyang and Peiping assorted in effect that the
United States was being forced to sue for peace as the
result of her military failure in Korea End Sine?Korean
Invincibility. The Neocow radio on 5 Jul' quoted a North
Korean newspaper article to the effect that the withdrawal
.of foreign troops and the cessation of armed intervention
by the U.S. in Korea would provide the necessary conditiona
for the settlement of the Korean queotion and the establish-
memt'of peace in the Far Bast. Ther o were also suggestions
that the Communists intend again to raise the question of
Formosa and the admission of Communist China to the UN in
.subsequent discusaions. A cable tramemitted to the UN by
the North Korean Foreign Orris)* on 7 July set forth a
purported appeal of American and British PW's calling for
the withdrawal of all foreign troops troM Korea & the
a:inclusion of a Five-Pox' peace paeto the exposure of
U.S. atrocities in Korea& the withdrawel of all U.S.
military forces from Formosa,, and the odmisolOn of Communist
Chins to the UN. Despite a marked increeee In cordiality
by Soviet diplomats during the week, aria the statements Of.
at least two Soviet officials that "peace is to be
achieved, Soviet-Communist propaganda su actions provided
no evidence Of a Change in their objectives in Korea er a
genuine desire to lessen world tensions.

preparations ate under way for a resumption of the offen-
sive ehile reports from several sources indicate that the
build-up of North Korean and Chinese Communist military
strength is also continuing. The volume .of southbound
enemy vehicular traffic is approaching that which has
preceded previous offeneives? and a field estimate states
that purely tactical considerations suggest the period
of 15-25 July as the most likely for the resumption of the
enemy offensive. Should the present negotiations be pro-
tracted the most likely period for the resumption of offen-
sive operations would be later, possibly as late as mid-
August. In general? however, there has been a lessening of
enemy activity in forward areas of the type which in the
peat has indicated an imminent offensive. One or two Flits
have stated "the new offensive" is to begin on or about
28 July, while some other reports have suggested its post-
ponement until August. Although the information is not
fully substantiated, reports of the past several weeks
have indicated that substantial numbers of North Korean
troops are still being trained in Manchuria0 and unconfirmed
reports have mentioned the formation of two new North Korean
corps and a new tank division equipped with 300 T.34 tanks.
The number of Soviet advisers with North Korean units
reportedly has also increased, with units larger than
battalions now said to have at least six Soviet officers as
"advisors." Although these reports suggest that the North
Korean Army is being built up to take over from the Chinese
Communists, and at least one report has stated that North
Korean forces will eventually displace the CCP, there are
also continuing indications of the flow of Chinese Ccamunist
reinforcements to Korea. According to a recent report&
the ccamanders of the Third and Fourth Field Army logistical
commands informed General Peng Teh-huai on 30 June that a
total of 80,000 nu "volunteers" ha 6 been dispatched to
the Korean frene.
Other reports of? the eontinuing movement of Chinese Communise
troops towards or into Korea include the statements of Ms
that the 13th Army Group of the Fourth Field Army is to
participate in the next offensive, reports of the presence
in Korea of uncommitted elements of the First Field ArRy,
and a report that 1200000 troops from the First, Second
and Third Field Armies were to be moved to the northeast
border of China before the end of May. The entrance at
Soviet troops into Korea and their presence in Manchuria
aontinues to be reported. One PO recently has claimed to,
have seen acme 200 1-34 tanks in Manchuria operated by
Soviet troops. There is still no confirmation of the
presence of Soviet troops, other than advisers and AAA
personnel, in either Manehuria or Korea.

in Air. Following a period of relative inactivity early in
The' 'week Whiehl was characterized by generally bad weather),
enemy jet fighters resumed operations on a considerable
scale. Approximately 50 11I045'5 were encountered on 7 July
in the Sinuiju area; 75-80 111045 'a and 20 aircraft described
65 Type 150a (high-wing, swept-wing jet fighters) were
encountered on 8 July in the Pyongyang and Sinuiju area;
and 4-8 11I045's were encountered on 9 July in the Sinanju
area. Although the enemy lost 5 Mira and had 4 others
damaged, without damaging UN aircraft? he was aggressiee
and his flying technique was described as generally
excellent. The engagement near Pyongyang was the fourth
time in two weeks that enemy jets had attacked UN aircraft
to that area. The sudden resueption of large -scale enemy
Jet counter-air operations coinciding with preliminary
*ease-tire negotiations Gould be designed to impress the
UN that the enemy is negotiating from $ position of strengeh.
It is also possible that the enemy is utilizing this period
of negotiations to commit the maximum number of pilots for
training and experience? a possibility Which is strengthened
by the apparent employment of Type 15 jets for the first
time in considerable nuebers. According to a FRAF estimates
a period of less than 30 days would probably be sufficient
to rehabilitate airfields in North Urea and would permit
the accommodatlon of a major portion of aircraft new in
Nenehuria. A cease-fire without guarantees against such
setivity could thus greatly enhance enemy capabilities for
both defensiwe and offensive air aoti ity against UN forces.
Ne ed Coinsunist Intentions. Since the Malik cease-fire
propose une a n r of reports have been received
purporting to set forth the results of various high-level
Slno-Soviet conferences in Peiping. None of these reports
has been substantiated and the details of the alleged
declaims have shown considerable variation. In general
however, and despite the numerous discrepancies? these
reports have fairly consistently stated that a primary
objective of the cease-tire proposal was to gain time for
ftrther Communist military preparations not only in gerea
bea also possibly for a ion against other targetao
ineluding Formosa? Japan, and Indochina. Various pewee
hove alleged that if cease-fire discussions break downy
the 4Intortationa1 Volunteer Army" will move into Korot.
At least two reports have stated that a major effort is to
be devoted to preventing the signing of the Japanese peace
treaty and that if this fails an attack ea Jew Is to be
launched. A mid-August date has been mentioned for a
25X1 Chinese Communlst attack on Forsiosau
iwniee various reports continue to alley
lest Communist military preparations are being timed for
se further military action in tate summer. One tntereet-

that the cease-fire proposal was the result of prior
Sino-Soviet conferences and that Chinese Communist
Foreign Minister Chou En-lit possibly Reds a trip to Moscow
during June. In contrast to mast of the information,
there has been one report that the Soviet Government is
definitely seeking peace in Korea and is even withholding
military supplies and that the Chinese Communists, disturbed
by their heavy losses, are also anxious to bring hostilities
to a close.
b. JAPAN. The, Moscow radio within the pest week devoted considerable
attention to the proposed Japanese peace treaty, thus further suggest-
ing that the USSR intends to press the question in the near future and
to follow up a Korean cease-fire with agitation for the inclusion of
the Soviet Union and Communist China in Japanese peace treaty discussions.
Soviet emphasis on this question continues to suggest that the USSR
regards the Japanese issue as the most important in the Far East and
that one objective of the cease-fire proposal may have been to inject
Japan into the discussions with the objective of postponing the treaty.
The proposal for a Pive-Power Pact in the Far East continues to be a
favored theme in Communist propaganda but the USSR has not yet advanced
such a proposal an an official level.
e. CRINA. Despite some reports that the Chinese Communists may be
planning late summer operations against Formosa* military information
from South Chins does not indicate that any significant preparations for
such action are under way. Reports of the pest four weeks have indicated
25X1 a ontinual flow of materiel intq South China, however, and a Chinese
statement for the first time has linked the donation campaign for the
porches, of military equipment with the "liberation of Formosa" as well
as the Korean war. There are also continuing reports of an increase in
Chinese Communist Air Force training activity in South and Central China.
25X1
4. INDOCHINA. A report of last week that two Viet Minh divisions
had moved into northern Annum from Tonkin now appears to have been
erroneous. An increase in Viet Minh activity in northern Annam is
nevertheless to be expected, after the antleipated rearmament of regular
Viet Minh regiments in that area.

continues, meanwhile, t be a wide divergenee of opinion regarding the

12,000 advisers but that it is practically impossible to compute the
numbers serving in disguise with the Viet Ninh. Although CCP units
eould be infiltrated into Tonkin without Immo:nate discovery, it is

There le some indication', as yet not confirmed, that in

sapient of Soviet recruits scheduled for Austria and
Hungary reportedly arrived at the Wilfleinadorf reception
center on 30 June. Total arrivals over a 30-day period
aggregated approximately 10,000, of which about 40$ were
assigned to garrisons in Hungary and the remainder to
Austria. The dieeharge of the 1927 class, already under
may in Germany, has not been reliably reported in Austria
but several secondary scurees claim that such eiseharge
shipments will begin during ju2y.

(2) zpansion of Satellite Armies. There is evidenee of
am era ed call-ups in !nth the Czechoslovakian and
Rumanian krales. As it now appears certain that the
natal autumn cell-up in Cseohoslovadela was advanced to
this spring, the estimated strength of the fteeh Army has
been increased from 1350004) to 1550000o wish Pert or all
of four age groups now in Navvies. The advence in eall-up
of the new (1930) menacript class may be desegned in part
to lower the conscription age to 19 or 20 in accordance
25X1 with the Defense Law of 1949. In Rumanieol
'the remainder of the 1931 class
in Constants use vnauctoel in April, While in two other
elates the class of 1932 wee either called to a tive duty
or ordered to report for medics/ exasinations in early
spring. The ealleup of the 1932 class, if confirmed,
would indicate the senuleaneous conscription of the 1931
and 1932 classes. In adeltion, same Rumanian reserve
? officers previously oonsedered unreliable were reportedly
recalled to active duty during Nay along with a limited
number of reservist soldeers up to age 35. The officer
recall would not be unesual and probably was accomplished
to permit training in Soelet weapons. In estimetes sub-
mitted receetly by the C,S. Arty Aetaehes in Humgary,
Csechoslovskia, and Rumania on the status of the armies
of those Satellites, the following chem.:Wirt/es in common
were noted: (a) Sovietisation of equipment and tactical
doctrine Is being carried out; (b) the three countries art
in the primes* of expanding, or are planning to increase,
their army strenseh; (o) all three Satellites need logisti-
cal support from the USSR to obtain maximum efficiency;
and (d) the ermles of the three are steadily approaching a
state of readineas for offensive eperations.
(3) Evacuation of Rumanian Border. Evacuations along the

continue, with acme reports characterizing the evsouation
as partial and others as *angst*. Initial evacuees were
ednerity groups and dissident peasants, but according to
One unconfirmed report Ruesnians have been warned that
they will be severe after minority groups are resettled.
In addition, refugees have reported that foreign nationals
in Bucharest have been notified to prepare to return to
their elm countries on 5 to 10 4sysi notice. In the
absence of any reliable evldenoe of unusual troop move-
ments or or civil defense preporatione in the border area,
Western observers adhere to their original belief that
the evaeuation program represents a long-term security
measure,

the N70-15 as their standard jet fieht -interceptor at least for the
present) their eontinuing efforte to develop more advanced jet types
were revealed when prototypes of four new jet fighters were demonstrated.
Three of the four wire nwept-wing types similar to the Types 18, 19 and
21 displayed In the 2949 Air Shaw and could be further developments of
these alreraft. An indication of further development of leng-range
bomber aircraft wee the appearance of a new foureengine.bomber, approxi-
mately oneetbdrd larger than the TV-4, with tractor propellers. This
new type simian is tentatively considered to be a heavy bomber. The
observation of 9 grey WO-jet aircraft suggests that some units of
the Soviet Navy are no:mixing jet aircraft. Over all, the Air Show
indicated that the Soviets are making further progress in aireraTt
development, that they are developing a variety of types of aircraft
and that attention possibly is being given to development of jet aircraft
