DAILY BRIEF
8 OCTOBER 1965
1. Indonesia
2. Rhodesia
3. South Vietnam
The generals appear to be wavering.
On the one hand, Sukarno with an as-
sist from Subandrio is making an all-out
effort to rehabilitate the Communist and
air force elements who sparked the 30
September incident. Radio Djakarta,
which is controlled by the army, has
broadcast an appeal for tranquility and
no revenge along the lines staked out
by Sukarno.
On the other, anti-Communist Muslim
demonstrators took to the streets of
Djakarta today and gutted the Communist
headquarters. A few pro-American senti-
ments were heard, too, for the first
time in many months. Although this had
army approval, the generals' staying power
in a drive against the Communists remains
to be established.
Prime Minister Smith's two talks
with Prime Minister Wilson have ended
in impasse. Smith, presumably, will
now return to Salisbury,
The chief of the National Police in
an area east of Saigon says he has been
ordered to be alert for any government
troop movements toward the capital. He
asserts that this is to guard against a
possible coup against Premier Ky. We
have seen no other evidence that such
an attempt is in the works.

4. India-Pakistan
.
France
Charges of cease-fire violations con-
tinue to be raised in both New Delhi and
Karachi. On the ground, however, inci-
dents seem to be on a reduced rate, en-
abling U Thant to report today a general
improvement in the observance of the
cease-fire.
Animosities still run high, and
both sides seem to be battening down
for a long struggle.
6. USSR The Soviets may have to come to the
US for several million tons of wheat.(
harvesting of the
spring wheat crop is going so slowly
that part of the crop may be lost. Ad-
ditional imports of quality wheat will
be required
Other major wheat producers have
already committed most of their stocks,
so the Soviets may have to turn to the
US.
