DEPARTMENT OF STATE INR BRIEFING NOTE TO: The Director, INR DATE: 6-10-68 TIME: Reg Morning SOURCE(S) Reuters 6-10 CLASS./CONTROL(S) Unclassified TDCS 314/09418 6-8 Secret/NFD The DC vice-secretary Flaminio Piccoli informed a competent American observer that DC would be willing to form an all-DC government until the fall provided that Socialists would pledge continual support. Should the Socialists merely agree to support the Government on an item-by-item basis, this would be unacceptable. DC therefore seeks a PSU pledge that would assure some measure of stability. If such a pledge can be obtained Rumor has agreed to head an all-DC government. Some DC leaders are dubious that an all-DC government will be stable even if Socialists make such a pledge and they have been urging Rumor not to squander his stature and prestige by agreeing to head it. INR Comment: The need for some PSU guarantee of stability is a sine gun non for such an all-DC interim government. If Rumor succeeds in forming one and announces his willingness to head it, it can be assumed that he has probably obtained such a guarantee from Socialists.
