OPC
Gayalo Thondup, another brother of the Dalai Lama, has arrived
in the U.S. accompanied by his Chinese wife and child. At
present, the 3 are guests in Virginia-of the Dalai Lama's
brother Tak-teer, supported by the CIA-controlled Committee
For A Free Asia. CIA attempted to forestall Gayalo's trip
to the U.S. because of suspected Nationalist connections of
undetermined nature. These attempts were unsuccessful.
Gayalo has indicated no definite'plans.: He has not requested
support from the Committee For A Free Asia so'far, however,
and it is known that he wishes to enter a university.
The field reports that CIA agents in no way indicated U.S.
Government interest in the CIA-controlled International
Federation of World Veterans' Organizations when arranging
for a South Korean Army Lieutenant to participate in the
Federations's recent Rome conference.
A CIA agent who has completed a survey of Macao reports that-
the Standard-Vacuum Oil Company and Caltex petroleum in-
stallations there are very accessible targets for sabotage.
The field questions the desirability-of'attempting sabotage,
however, unless there is definite proof that the facilities
are involved in leakages of petroleum .to. the Communists.
Intelligence channels are ascertaining.if such-is the case.
Chinese Nationalist guerrillas returniig from CIA-directed
mainland operations report that the Communists are generally
forewarned of guerrilla operations. The field reports its
awareness of this situation and stresses the extreme dif-
ficulty of maintaining the security of landing operations, but
reports that Chinese Communist confusion, as determined from
underground reports and radio intercepts, indicates that,
except in the case of one operation, they have not had
knowledge of raiding targets or landing dates and that they had
no definite plans to counter. 5 1951TOP SECRET (6QA imfi) COPY # I OF 5. SEP 25
