He said that the West Irian issue affected all of Indonesia's domestic and foreign policies and would continue to do so as long as the territory was not returned to Indonesia. The army's press spokesman, however, has denied press reports that Nasu- tion said the nation should be prepared to undertake a war in behalf of its claim. During the same parliamentary debate, Foreign Minis- ter Subandrio refused to say whether or not Indonesia would raise the Irian question at the next session of the UN General Assembly, claiming it would be a "tactical error" to reveal future actions at this time. lubandrio told the Thai foreign minister a few weeks ago that Indonesia was very anxious to settle the West Irian question with the Netherlands, and that if this could be done adjustments would be made regard- ing Dutch economic claims in Indonesia Both Subandrio and President Sukarno have stated pub- licly during the past year that Indonesia will not resort to force to achieve its claim. Indonesian officials, particular- ly President Sukarno and air force leaders, undoubtedly feel that the nation's military build-up is strengthening its interna- tional stature and will assist In bringing pressure to bear on the Netherlands. Indonesian paramilitary groups reportedly continue to infiltrate West Irian in an effort to stimulate the local population against the Dutch administrations The West Irian claim was de-emphasized in 1958 and 1959, and anti-Dutch measures in Indonesia itself were sub- stituted. National pride and political necessity now may dictate renewed emphasis. Nasution undoubtedly hopes to keep the army in the forefront of leadership for the politi- cally significant West Irian campaign, which has been con- sistently exploited by President Sukarno and the Communist party and which was supported by Soviet Premier Khrushchev during his recent visit. 25X1 25X1 25X1 Approved For Release 2002/10/21 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO05000020001-3 2 Mar 60 CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE BULLETIN Page 2 Approved F 25X1 Kenya Africans Maintain Pressure for New Concessions Statements by African delegates on their return to Kenya from constitutional talks in London have been pro-vocative in tone and reflect intent to continue pressure for full independ- ence. African leader Tom Mboya has characterized the com- promise agreed to in London as only an interim measure, to be followed swiftly by full independence. The London agree- ments provided for legislative elections later this year under a greatly enlarged African franchise which is expected to re- sult in a legislature with an African majority Lspeech on 27 February by Mboya--in which he advised moderate as well as rightist Europeans to accept an African- dominated "democracy" in Kenya or get out--was followed by disorders between African nationalists and police. A second African spokesman emphasized in a press conference that Afri- can delegates had not committed themselves to the preservation of the White Highlands, a rich farming area which remains a European preserve despite action late in 1959 to legalize Afri- can holdingse /he prospect of increased African participation in government, unabated African demands for full independence, and continuing pressure on the White Highlands will prompt some Europeans to leave Kenya and may lead others to consider extralegal means of combatting the African "threat." 25X1 25X1 25X1 25X1 Approved For Release 2002/10/21 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO05000020001-3 2 Mar 60 CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE BULLETIN Page 3 25X6 Approved For Release 2002/10/21 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO05000020001-3 Approved For Release 2002/10/21 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO05000020001-3 Approved Forte ease - 05000020001-3 THE PRESIDENT The Vice President Executive Offices of the White House Special Assistant for National Security Affairs Scientific Adviser to the President Director of the Budget Director, Office of Civil and Defense Mobilization Director, National Aeronautics and Space Administration Special Assistant for Security Operations Coordination Chairman, Board of Consultants on Foreign Intelligence Activities Special Assistant for Foreign Economic Policy Executive Secretary, National Security Council The Treasury Department The Secretary of the Treasury The Department of State The Secretary of State The Under Secretary of State The Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs The Deputy Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs The Deputy Under Secretary of State for Administration The Counselor Director, International Cooperation Administration The Director of Intelligence and Research The Department of Defense The Secretary of Defense The Deputy Secretary of Defense Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs The Secretary of the Army The Secretary of the Navy The Secretary of the Air Force The Chairman, The Joint Chiefs of Staff Commandant, United States Marine Corps The Director, The Joint Staff Chief of Staff, United States Army Chief of Naval Operations, United States Navy Chief of Staff, United States Air Force Assistant to Secretary of Defense for Special Operations Director for Intelligence, The Joint Staff Assistant Chief of Staff for Inteiligence, Department of Army Director of Naval Intelligence, Department of Navy Assistant Chief of Staff, Intelligence, Department of the Air Force Supreme Allied Commander, Europe Commander in Chief, Pacific The Department of Commerce The Secretary of Commerce Federal Bureau of Investigation The Director Atomic Energy Commission The Chairman National Security Agency The Director National Indications Center The Director Approved For R lease 2002110-.1-21 - CIA RIOP79-T-0-0-9-75AG 5000020001-3 25X1 25X1 ~i~i~i,! ii iii 1
