1o US sees no settlement of Trieste at present--The Depart-
ment of State has advised US Ambassador Allen in Belgrade
that because of the negative attitude of the Yugoslav Gov-
ernment toward any concessions to Italy, the US is inclined
to take no further action at present in a settlement of the

may eventually be possible but foresees no action open to
the US or Britain which would be effective at this time.

decision was preceded by a bitter debate in which tell-
ing use was made of the argument that some progress
on Kashmir was imperative in view of the delicate rela-

(CIA Comment- CIA believes that India, despite
its continuing vocal objections to the principles embodied
in the UN resolution, will finally accept it "under protest,"
as a means both of easing tensions with Pakistan and
obtaining a new procedural basis for arguing the impractica-

likely to accept the resolution only if it becomes convinced
that the objective of an impartial overall plebiscite will
not be abandoned as a result of negotiations carried out by
the mediator.)
