DAILY BRIEF
29 SEPTEMBER 1965
1, India-Pakistan
2. South Vietnam
Both sides continue to issue uncom-
promising statements.
President Ayub warned Ambassador Mc-
,
Conaughy today that Pakistan cannot much
longer tolerate "flagrant' violations of
the cease-fire by the Indians. He claimed
that these violations resulted from in-
structions from the Indian military, with
Prime Minister Shastri "impotent to con-
trol them."
The commanding general of India's
forces in eastern India told the US con-
sul general in Calcutta that violations
are straining the cease-fire "to the ut-
most limits" and that renewed fighting
would be bloodier
50X1
The heavy fighting near Phu Cu pass
in Binh Dinh Province has apparently
fallen off, but another major engagement
may be in the making.
/a large enemy build-up has
taken place in Binh Dinh. South Viet-
namese reinforcements, in turn, are be-
ing sent in.
The US 1st Cavalry Division and
other American army and marine units are
in place throughout the province.

3. Dominican Republic Yesterday's near showdown between
Garcia Godoy and the military chiefs has
subsided, but mutual antagonisms were
further deepened by the day's events.
4. Panama
5. Uruguay
Foreign Minister Eleta interprets
Arnulfo Arias' attack on last week's
joint canal treaty declaration as the
beginning of an all-out effort to sabo-
tage the negotiations.
Eleta said he intends to launch a
radio-television campaign to discredit
Arias. He recognizes that Arias' mass-
based party could stage street demonstra-
tions and strikes, but says that strong
action now is the only way to deal with
Arias.
Other Panamanian reaction to the
joint declaration remains cautiously
favorable.
Generally deteriorating economic
conditions, another wave of strikes, and
a deepening paralysis within the govern-
ment, give some credibility to new rumors
of an imminent coup.
The next several weeks will be criti-
cal. The Communists,who have been lying
low in order not to provide any excuse
for a rightist coup, may now believe
that failure to exploit legitimate eco-
nomic grievances may cost them their in-
fluence in the unions.

ANNEX
Air Defense Build-up in Southern China
Since the time of the Tonkin Gulf incidents in August
1964, the Chinese Communists have been involved in a crash
program to strengthen their air defenses in southern China.
The program now appears to be slacking off. The results
have been impressive; they can be summarized as follows;
- Jet fighters; Before August 1964, the south was
defended by some 264 subsonic MIG-15s and MIG-17s
based at six airfields. Since then, the Chinese
have moved more than half of their advanced
fighters into the southern area. A total of about
145 MIG-19 and MIG-21 supersonic interceptors have
been sent down; they are deployed at, at least,
10 installations. The tally* looks like this;
Aug 64 Sep 65
MIG-15 264 240
MIG-17
MIG-719 0 133
MIG-21 0 12
264 385.
*The 66 North VietnameSe fighters based
in North Vietnam are not included;
- Airfields; Four new airfields were started, of
which two have been completed. Fighters are now
based on one of ?these, at Ningming only 15 miles
from the North Vietnamese border.
- Radar and antiaircraft; There has been a signifi-
cant increase in new radar equipment. This in-
cludes the latest model Chinese early warning and
ground-control-intercept radar. Other radar equip-
ment already in South China has been shifted closer
to the border and coastal areas west of Canton.
Early warning radar has been deployed around the
entire periphery of Hainan Island. In addition,
antiaircraft artillery units have been shifted
from Canton to the Nanning and Ningming areas and
to Hainan Island.

ANNEX (Cont'd)
Last month a surface-to-air missile site was
detected at Ningming airfield, the first such dis-
covery in southern China. Others will undoubtedly
follow.
