Indonesian plans have a tendency to bog down in execution, but army authorities are re- ported to be confident to the point of cockiness about their successes thus far in suppressing the Com- munists. At a press conference yesterday Foreign Min- ister Subandrio called for talks between Indonesia, Singapore, and the component territories of the "Brit- ish Malaysia project" in order to change Djakarta's confrontation policy. Although this represents the first Indonesian call for a settlement in over a year, Subandrio's proposal appears to be little more than a propaganda gesture, since Djakarta remains un- willing to recognize the integrity of the Malaysian Federation. In the same statement he called for mil- itary operations to continue. 10 Dec 65 PENN I Approved Fo Release 2003/04/11 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO08600 80001-5 25 USSR: A new political balance in the Soviet leadership seems to be taking shape as a result of the shifts announced in Moscow yesterday. Present indications are that these moves, as well as others made earlier in the week, were en- gineered by Brezhnev rather than against his in- terests. The loss by party secretary Shelepin of his base of operations in the government has left his position ambiguous, but there are indications that he may at the same time have gained relatively in strength in the party. With his appointment to replace Mikoyan as titular chief of state, Party Secretary and Presid- ium member Podgorny, once a top candidate for Brezhnev's position, has been kicked upstairs. He will probably in due course be dropped from the Sec- retariat. If rumors in Moscow that Shelepin will take on Podgorny's responsibilities on that body are borne out, Shelepin's position in the leadership will have been substantially enhanced. Kosygin's position as head of government is not affected. Mikoyan's retirement has been rumored for many months. In view of his age and long service, honorable retirement probably offered him an attractive course, but it is possible that his resignation was not entirely j voluntary. Although he remains at least for now on the Presidium of both the party and the Supreme Soviet, he clearly has withdrawn from the front line. His influence, which has been over the years by and large a moderating one, is likel now to count for far less in the highest 25) councils. 10 Dec 65 Approved Fo Release 2003/04/11 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO0860 380001-5 NOTES *Rhodesia: here are no apparent breaks in the ranks of the white minority, although economic sanc- tions are beginning to be felt. Commercial establish- ments in Rhodesia are beginning to feel the squeeze, and several of the largest stores are taking steps to reduce staffs. US Consulate officials, however, believe that even with continued vigorous application of the sanctions, it is still a moot point if sufficient pressure can be generated to force Smith to seek an "arrange- ment" with the UK. 10 Dec 65 ApprovediFor Release 2003/04/11 : CIA-RDP79T00975A00$600380001-5 25X1 Approved For 00380001-5 -9003.104.111 - THE PRESIDENT The Vice President Executive Offices of the White House Special Counsel to the President The Special Assistant for National Security Affairs The Scientific Adviser to the President The Director of the Budget 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 Counselor and Chairman of the Policy Planning Council The Director of Intelligence and Research The Treasury Department The Secretary of the Treasury The Under Secretary of the Treasury The Department of Defense The Secretary of Defense The Deputy Secretary of Defense The Secretary of the Army The Secretary of the Navy The Secretary of the Air Force The Assistant Secretary of Defense (International Security Affairs) The Assistant Secretary of Defense The Chairman, The Joint Chiefs of Staff Chief of Naval Operations, United States Navy Chief of Staff, United States Air Force Chief of Staff, United States Army Commandant, United States Marine Corps U.S. Rep., Military Committee and Standing Group, NATO Supreme Allied Commander, Europe Commander in Chief, Pacific Commander in Chief, Atlantic The Director, Defense Intelligence Agency The Director, The Joint Staff The Assistant Chief of Staff for Intelligence, Department of Army The Director of Naval Intelligence, Department of Navy The Assistant Chief of Staff, Intelligence, Department of the Air Force The Department of Justice The Attorney General The Federal Bureau of Investigation The Director National Aeronautics and Space Administration The Administrator The Atomic Energy Commission The Chairman The National Security Agency The Director The United States Information Agency The Director The National Indications Center The Director Approved ForiRelease 2003/04/11 : CIA-RDP79T00975A008400380001-5 25X1 Approved For Release-F"4/gEe9T00975 08600380001-5 Approved For ReleaseTQOP4/9 E ET9T00975A008600380001-5
