the division level.
This is disclosed in an Ameri-
can intelligence report which de-
tails for the first time the Rus
sian. Soviet satellite and Chinese
Communist military and politi-
cal aid for the Red rebels in
1ndo-C China.
In the Wet Mini ITSELF" the
report states, there are Soviet
and Chinese Communist 'ad-
visers' or supervisors in the mil
itary organization, down at least
to the division level.
Communist political control
continues down to the company
level in the military and is
spread throughout the admin
istrative hierarchy"
Details Participation.
After detailing the way Chi
nese Communists train Wet
Mini troops, the intelligence re-
port says:
while Chinese Communist sup
port of, and possible direct par
ticipation in, the 1ndo- Chinese
var is most obvious, there also
Is Soviet activity.
"The operations of the war are
conducted by two organizations,
known as the Sino-DRV CViet
Minh) Alliance and the Sino-
DRV Joint Military Operations
commission, located at Manning,
KwangSi.
"A Soviet Advisory Commis-
sion is attached to the alliance.
THE U. S. S. r. furnishes tele-
communications equipment, ex-
plosives, and heavier caliber
guns along with it's technical,
military and cultural advice.
Charge Direct Evidence.
Direct evidence of Soviet
material support of the Wet
Mini was uncovered by the
French raid on Langson in July,
1858. Supplies found there in
cluded 1000 Skoda (Czech)
automatic rifles, $50 various
arms $4,000 liters of gasoline,
six Molotova Russian) trucks,
ESQ ties, 81 Molotova truck en-
gines, eight machine tools, 200
cubic meters of explosives, and
500 cubic meters of other ex-
plosives and various Devices all
of Russian or European satellite
origin.
Russian and Chinese political
and strategic help to the Wet
Mimi is no purely gratuitous
matter. Rather, by working their
trusted agents into the top level
of the Wet Mimi political and
military organization, they are
making certain that, if military
success is achieved, the resulting
regime will be a faithful satellite
administration, as in North
Korea"
Quote Red Pattern.
The report lists the Commu-
mist maneuverS in Wet Mini as
a classic example of the way the
Reds establish satellites. The
pattern outlined in the Moscow
University Herald of December,
1851. listed these steps:
!. Incite the spirit of national
ism in all classes of the popula-
ton.
2. Encourage the formation of
an all-national united front"
which may include "vacillating
national bourgeoisie" and the
petty bourgeoisie and its politi-
cal parties"
3. Wrest leadership of the
united front" from these two
latter groups in favor of the
working class and the Com
munist Party.
4. Develop the united front"
into purely working class and
peasant organization.
5. Form. when possible and
where possible, powerful Peoples
Liberation armies. skillful in
battle with the enemy, under
the leadership of the Communist
Party"
Report Gives Appraisal.
The intelligence report gave
this appraisal:
"The conclusion to be drawn
is clear. The aggression in Indo-
China is being carried out by a
regime which, while advertising
itself as an indigenous national
ist movement, draws it's ideologi-
cal inspiration from Moscow and
Peiping. uses the tactics de-
veloped by world communism for
establishment of satellite re-
gimes, and depends heavily on
the U. S. S. r. and China for
the materials it needs to gain
its ends"
To demonstrate how carefully
the Communists prepared for
the Indo-C Chinese campaign, the
American intelligence report in
cluded a copy of Chinese Com
munist Handbook for Political
Workers Going to Wet Nam"
The Reds classified the handbook
as top secret-and with good
reason, for it reflects the Reds
subverSive intentions.
The handbook, issued Decem-
ber Is, 1852, refers to "the
troops" in their march" from
China into Indo-China. 1t eau

natives.
Advice on Espionage.
The handbook also says:
