The period for repayment now varies between 5 and 15 years.

Peiping's latest purchase is for over 1. 3 million tons of Australian wheat to be delivered by mid-1963. This sale involves slightly more grain than the Aus- tralians sold to China in all of 1962 and brings total Chinese grain purchases from Australia since 1960 to over five million tons. Peiping also has recently signed large grain contracts with Canada and France for deliveries during the first half of next year. Altogether, Chi- nese grain imports in the first half of 1963 are likely to total at least 3. 5 million tons--about the same as was imported in the first half of 1962. To- tal Chinese grain imports in 1962 amounted to about five million tons. 31 Dec 62 DAILY BRIEF 9 Approved For Releas b06700520001-0 25X1 Approved For Release 2002/05/16 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO06700520001-0 Next 1 Page(s) In Document Exempt Approved For Release 2002/05/16 : CIA-RDP79T00975AO06700520001-0 Approved For Relee' NOTES b06520001 -0 Brazil: Brazilian military officers, including Minister of War General Kruel, may attempt to overthrow the Goulart regime either this week or after results of the plebiscite are announced on 20 January, Presi- dent Goulart reportedly is aware of the plot and is attempting to organize defensive action with the help of loyal officers.
