delegate 1 (normass/deepe)
SAIGON, OCTOBER 23-The South Vietnamese Foreign Ministry is
hand-picking a small delegation of medium-level officials to send to
possible
Paris next week, in preparation for any new stage of broadened peace talks
involving settlement of the war in the South, informed sources report.
At this stage, the South Vietnamese delegation is pa prepared
to sit in partnership" with the American delegation rather than a separate
delegation at this time. Presently, the South Vietnamese delegate in
Paris is listed as an observer.
This would presumably mean the Viet Cong
could be represented as part of Hanoi's delegation, rather than as a
separate entity--which the Saigong government has consid consistently
said it would refuse to talk sit with.

Details as to the exact status of the delegation-either separate
from.
the Saigon
or integrated with the American delegation-are not repeat not yet firmed
up here
and are probably open to further re-arrag arrangement;
government seems to be trying to get organized to meet eventuality.
The delegation-which has yet to be officially named in Saigon--
would, more than anything, be doing a "reconnassiance" of the Paris
scene; if it appears that
substantial and significant talks on the wart)
in the South are to get under way, it would be re-inforced with a more
high-powered delegation or representation, informed sources report.

If and when substantive peace talks begin about settling the war
in the South, the South Vietnamese delegation is expected to be headed
by the Foreign Minister himself himself, Mr. Tran Chanh Thanh.
Considered an experienced neog negotiator, Thanh hoaded the South
at the 1962 Laotian neutrality conference
attended the 1954 Geneva Conference, on Vietnam and
he met

delegate 4 (normass/deepe)
Vietnamese reports and viso visitors from Paris indicate there are
differences of opinion on small matters between Ambassador Averill
Harriman and members of the South Vietnamese delegation. Ambassador
Harriman has complained to visiting Vietnamese officials that he would
like some help from South Vietnamese who can interprete fun and
Second

Obitos obscurities involved in Oriental Communist thinking processes.
There were also differences of opinion reported on whether the
Americans or the Vietnamese would serve as cho co-equals in char
heading the joint American-South Vietnamese delegation,
or whether
Ambassador Harriman would head the combined delegation. The South
Vietnamese reportedly wanted to head the joint 181 delegation, with the
Americanst taking a back-seat role. However, all of this is still
considered up in the air until Hanoi unveils some of its thinking about the
next phase of negotiations and the role of the Viet Cong delegation.
