However, two disturbances in the interior of the country. at San Juan and at Higuey (see map) last night reflect the tensions still growing there pend- ing resolution of the political dead- lock in the capital. The first of these included a raid on a police headquarters and an army barracks, presumably to seize arms for use at some later date. This objective seems to have character- ized a number of other such attacks in recent days. The rebel camp, itself now reported subject to some dissension between the Communists and Bosch adherents, is re- ported to be banking on word of an im- pending:military coup against Imbert, This, however, remains so far only a .rumor. Since Caamano's flat rejection of Imbert's proposal for elections under the supervision of the Organization of American States,. there has been no word of new major initiatives toward a political solution. In New York, UN observer Mayobre, who returned Wednes- day from Santo'Domingo, is still air- ing his view that a government under Guzman remains the only solution. 50X1 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003700250001-9 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003700250001-9 50X1 DAILY BRIEF 3 JUNE 1965 1. South Vietnam 2. - Communist China The military are edging back onto the stage as the political crisis per- sists. The top generals sat in on today's generally inconclusive negotiations be- tween Suu and Quat. ,They, appeared ir- ritated by the squabbling and did not take sides. Ambassador Taylor talked to Quat at the end of the day's discussions. He found the Premier tired, indecisive, and lacking, in self-confidence. .Quat gave the impression of wishing to,brush the cabinet problem under the rug. The discussions will continue tomorrow, and military impatience is likely, to grow until some clear-cut decision is reached.

USSR 5. Malaysia Plotting against the person and government of Colonel Peralta is-be- coming more widespread. Both rightists and leftists a ear to be involved. The regime is probably alert, and none of the plots appears to offer ,the genuine threat of an overthrow. Any attempt against Peralta, however, could spark disorders which an assortment of antigovernment, elements would join. The USSR may be preparing for a large-scale military exercise centered in East Germany. A sharp new confrontation looms between the central government in Kuala Lumpur and authorities in Singapore. Singapore leader Lee Kuan Yew threatens to push matters to the point of a partition of Malaysia unless Prime Minister Rahman breaks with his more ex- tremist Malay followers. These elements in turn are demanding strong actions against Lee. This sort of back and forth could well bring a new outbreak of violence between the Malays and Chinese. 50X1 50X1 50X1 50X1 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003700250001-9 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003700250001-9 50X1 6. Bolivia 7. Uruguay 8. Cuba The extremist mine union leadership appears to be giving up the fight against the junta. A large number of the leftist leaders are reported asking to leave the country. Barrientos' troubles in the mines are not over yet, however. Much will depend on how persuasively the govern- ment presents its bundle of reforms to the miners and then how effectively it carries them out. The government decision to ban the meeting this month of a Communist-spon- sored Cuban Solidarity Conference will probably trigger a new storm of leftist agitation against the shaky ruling coun- cil. In addition, its recent decision to suspend certain imports will prob- ably lead to a loud outcry from business- men and the public ,all of whom will be quick to feel the pinch. Soviet air defense advisers will probably remain in Cuba until at least the end of 1966,/ \Cuban personnel are still unable to operate and maintain Soviet surface-to-air missile equip- ment proficiently. 50X1 50X1 50X1 50X1 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003700250001-9 50X1 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003700250001-9 R Next 4 Page(s) In Document Denied Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003700250001-9 50X1 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003700250001-9 TOP SECRET TOP SECRET Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2015/07/24 : CIA-RDP79T00936A003700250001-9
