West Germany: The Bonn government is seeking
to establish a West Getman trade mission in Budapest.
There has been a Hungarian mission in Frankfurt
since the end of the warj
A West German foreign ministry official told
Ambassador Dowling on 9 October that the talks were
moving slowly, but that he had hopes of eventual
agreement. The main stumbling block at the moment,
he said, is Hungarian insistence that an agreement
be described publicly as a "first step toward diplo-
matic relations:'
(The Bonn government, and Foreign Minister
Schroeder in particular, have been seeking ways to
implement the June 1961 Bundestag resolution calling
for steps to normalize relations with East Europe
without sacrificing Germany's interests. Bonn is
against diplomatic relations, because it feels that
they would precipitate r cognition of East Germany 25X1
by nonaligned countries.) I

France: De Gaulle continues to take the line
that the USSR must be made to realize that any armed
interference with Western access to Berlin would
mean nuclear war. He has been reviewing Berlin
contingen y plans and wants them to be based on this
approac9
A high French foreign ministry official report-
edly old the British Embassy that the French take
issue with Lord Home's 25 September UN speech in-
dicating that the West would seek to "isolate and
stop" accidental hostilities in Berlin. Lord Home's
implication that some Soviet military actions in Ber-
lin might not lead to general nuclear war is considered
"undesirable," by Paris, the French official said. ]
De Gaulle's personal interest in Berlin contin-
gent planning may indicate that France will renew
its arguments f a lower threshold for the use of
nuclear wea

Kenya: (An increase in subversion and inter-
tribal tension threatens security and is likely to
cause further stress among Kenya's political factions.
(Early this month police arrested 26 members of
the I nya Land Freedom Army, a terrorist organiza-
tion within the Kikuyu, Kenya's largest tribe. The
Land Freedom Army plans to seize European-owned
land after Kenya receives its independence, and has
been collecting arms and taking oaths among the
Kikuyu.
Gmaller tribes in Kenya see these activities as
confirmation of their fears that the Kikuyu will at-
tempt to dominate the country. Anti-Kikuyu demon-
strations,, accompanied by violence, have already
occurred. 1
These tensions will aggravate difficulties be-
tween and within Kenya's two main political parties
since each party is based on tribal alliances.

Indonesia-Malaya: Indonesia may be embarking
on a long-range progra of subversion to disrupt
the Federation of Malaysia after it is formed next
year. The Sukarno government sees a successful
federation as a threat o Indonesia's aspirations to
leadership in the area.
(Djakarta reportedly has assigned a psychological
warfare expert to exploit anti-merger sentiment,
particularly in Sarawak, Brunei, and North Borneo.
These territories, together with Malaya and Sing-
apore, are to make up the federation.

Ecuador: Two rival Communist groups report-
edly plan to launch good-sized guerrilla campaigns
next month with the objective of cutting almost all
communications between the coast and the highlands
of Ecuador.
The Communist-front Revolutionary Union of
Ecuadorean Youth (URJE) reportedly has established
four camps in the northern provinces. Their loca-
tions would permit operations to block the highways
from Esmeraldas and Colombia and the railroad
from San Lorenzo, thus isolating Quito from the
north. Communists claim the URJE has received
several shipments of arms smuggled from Cuba, in-
cluding 16 machine guns and material for 15,000
"small bombs."
The regular Communist Party of Ecuador (PCE)
reportedly plans to establish its own guerrilla bases
south of Quito. The regular Communists intend to
time their own operations with those of the URJE and
to isolate Quito from the coast.
Both groups believe they will receive substantial
aid from Cuba if they can mount successful harass-
ment operations. There have been no reports of ef-
fective guerrilla activity in Ecuador thus far, and
all reports of the planned campaigns come from
25X1 Communist sources. II (gyp)

Venezuela: (President Betancourt is seeking ad-
ditional measure to allay continued demands by the
military that he outlaw the Communist Party and the
Movement of the Revolutionary Left (MIR).and arrest
their congressional leaders, or be ousted.
CThe government's success in reducing violence
has eased this pressure somewhat, but several offi-
cers have warned of a possible coup if the govern-
ment does not m ve against the extremist leaders in
the next few ys
CW.hile it remains doubtful that the Social Christian
(COPEI) members of the coalition will support Betan-
court in ignoring congressional immunity, he appar-
ently will persist in his efforts to find a solution ac-
ceptable to both the military and COPEI. The embassy
reports that Betancourt may have requested the Su-
preme Court to nullify the 1958 elections of Commu-
nist and MIR congressmen. If necessary, however,
he reportedly intends to carry out his plans even at
the risk of causing COPEI's withdrawal from the gov-
ernment
