SUBJECT: Some Comments on your Paper "Possible
Chinese Reactions to the OXCART Program"
1. I personally am inclined to think that the last
sentence of paragraph 2 is a bit weak given the Japanese
aversion to all things atomic.
2. In view of the item in the PDB and the CIB today
about Soviet defense exercises against a simulated A-11
attack, I wonder if it would not be useful to have some
language in this paper dealing with Soviet reaction to a
Chinese announcement that we had overflown China.
3. You might disposeXi-your paper e a Chinese
Communist reaction consisting of foot soldiers into North
Vietnam. It is not a reaction which I can conceivably
regard as likely, but somehow it occurs to the reader,
when considering this problem, and might well be put to rest.
Please return the paper when finished and I will show it to
the Director.
