Eastern Europe
Preliminary analysis of the latest
satellite photography--the mission
ended last Tuesday--provides further
evidence that the Soviet ICBM deploy-
ment program is continuing apace.
More than 20 new construction
starts for the small silos that house
the SS-11 missile have already been
discovered, although the mission covered
less than half of the known 15 ICBM com-
plexes. Two new large silos for the
SS-9 missile were also identified.-
These discoveries, plus continuing
study of earlier photography, raise
the count reported in the 6 September
Brief to about 340 small silos and 128
large ones.
The outlook for the fall harvest
is excellent. The take in the USSR
will approach the record harvest of
1964.

The Soviet wheat crop, for instance,
will almost certainly be well above the
annual average. In Eastern Europe, 50X1
total breadgrain production will prob-
ably be off only slightly from last
year's high level, while coarse grains
will top the 1965 output. There should
be feed grain and roughage enough for
good livestock production at least
through early 1967.
The USSR, nevertheless, has con-
tracted to buy abroad almost four mil-
lion tons of wheat this fiscal year--
probably to replenish stocks and help
fulfill commitments to Eastern Europe
and Cuba.
