SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE

Confidential U.S. State Department Central Files, 1960–January 1963 The U.S. State Department Central Files are the definitive source of American diplomatic reporting on political, military, social, and economic developments throughout the world in the twentieth century. Surpassing the scope of the State Department’s Foreign Relations of the United States (FRUS) series, the Central Files provide extensive coverage of all political, military, social, and economic matters relating to a particular country or world event. The State Department Central Files for 1960–January 1963 cover a crucial period in U.S. and world history. Each part of the 1960–January 1963 series contains a wide range of primary materials arranged topically and chronologically: full texts of important letters and cables sent and received by U.S. diplomats and embassy personnel; legal documentation; reports and clippings from journals and newspapers; interviews and minutes of meetings with U.S. and foreign leaders; and high-level government documents, including official reports, memoranda, and transcripts or summaries of speeches, press conferences, and parliament and cabinet sessions.

Confidential U.S. State Department Central Files, Lebanon, 1960–January 1963 People are so accustomed to thinking of violence or chaos at the mention of Lebanon that they forget, or are not aware, that before the long civil war began destroying the country in 1975, there was another mode of life there. In June 1960, Cabinet Minister Pierre Gemayel set forth this goal as a core part of the platform for his Phalange Party: “to make of Lebanon a paradise on the Mediterranean similar to small, independent, and prosperous Switzerland, where people would relax from divisions and subversions, ambitions, and the hot and cold wars.” The extent to which Lebanon was relaxing is open to interpretation; yet the fact remains that for most of the first three quarters of the twentieth century, Lebanon was a place where people of vastly different cultures and belief systems found ways to coexist peacefully, most of the time, and to prosper. Confidential U.S. State Department Central Files, Lebanon, 1960–January 1963 compiles a large collection of recently released documents that provide illuminating, sometimes astounding, glimpses of Lebanon in the long period of relative calm before the storm of civil war. The collection also includes substantial subsets of material on Israel, Palestine, Syria, and Turkey. The following sections summarize some of the major topics and issues covered in the collection.

Domestic Politics and Civil Order A country with seventeen religious sects, each competing for its share of power and wealth, produced many assertive, charismatic, and politically savvy leaders. The collection contains hundreds of documents that portray important figures in the various Christian and Muslim sects or in the dynamic business sector, including

vii cabinet ministers Camille Chamoun, Raymond Edde, Pierre Gemayel, Kamal Jumblatt, and Philippe Takla; Prime Ministers Saeb Salaam and Rachid Karame; businessmen Yusef Beidas, Robert Kfoury, and Emile Boustani; Maronite Patriarch Paul Meouchi; and Lebanon’s President Fuad Chehab. Sessions of parliament often featured fierce debates, high theatrics, deals, and stalemates, with legislators sometimes stomping out of the chamber when their demands were not met. One document describes a fairly typical session: “...a parliamentary meeting marked by confusion, raucous laughter, obscenities, and threats.” The person who, more than any other, held this unruly group together and kept it functioning was President Fuad Chehab. A reluctant leader who often expressed his desire to step down, Chehab enjoyed near unanimous respect across the country and was almost literally forced to remain in office. When he submitted his resignation in July 1960, nearly the entire parliament rushed to his house and begged him to retract his resignation. He did. Chehab’s resignation and subsequent retraction, the reshuffling of the cabinet, the parliamentary elections, and the periodic outbreaks of civil violence—usually between members of rival political parties or their associated religious sects or ethnic groups—are some of the more noteworthy domestic political events of the period. The most significant domestic political event was the coup attempt of December 31, 1961. Although the insurrection by a small group of military officers garnered little support inside or outside the military and quickly failed, it had a rather heavy fallout. The coup brought to light disaffections with the standing government that were deeper and more widespread than many in the Beirut elite had supposed. But in the end, no internal tensions proved strong enough to seriously disrupt what U.S. Ambassador Armin H. Meyer called “the genial anarchy of Lebanon.”

Foreign Relations The collection includes a broad spectrum of materials on Lebanon’s foreign affairs. The country’s dealings with other Arab countries, especially Syria, Jordan, and Iraq, seem to have been rocky more often than smooth. Relations with the United Arab Republic (UAR)—in effect, Egypt, after Syria withdrew from the union on October 9, 1961—were especially troubled. Pro-Syrian interests and the Communist press, fearful of what they perceived as Gamal Abdel Nasser’s plan to achieve hegemony over the Near East, lambasted the UAR, while others in favor of Arab unification defended Nasser and his aim to establish a Palestinian state. Meanwhile, Lebanon, with its long-entrenched fear of Syrian domination and its determination to remain neutral, refused to join any sort of economic union with that country. Lebanon’s policies toward the non-Arab world also reflected the country’s neutralist stance. The collection includes materials on Lebanon’s views on or involvement with developments such as the French-Algerian conflict, the Congo civil war, the Arab boycott of U.S. ships, the U.S. Navy’s periodic visits to Beirut, the Lebanese purchase of U.S. arms, the visit of Vice President Lyndon Baines Johnson, the U-2 incident, the Berlin crisis, and the initiation or resumption of nuclear testing by Israel, the United States, and the USSR. Lebanon’s relations with Israel were relatively peaceful during the 1960–1963 period, compared to later years when the Palestine Liberation Organization launched raids against Israel from southern Lebanon. Still, there were tensions, such as

viii demonstrations by Palestinian refugees in Beirut. There were frequent border incidents. Then there was the plan to divert waters of the Hasbani River from Israel, in retaliation for Israeli diversion of water from Lebanon. Finally, in an interesting exchange of telegrams between the U.S. embassies in Beirut and Tel Aviv, one can follow the efforts of American diplomats to persuade the Lebanese government to allow U.S. school children to cross from Israel to Lebanon at Ras Nakoura to spend Christmas or Easter with their families in Beirut.

Economic and Social Matters This collection contains interesting material for students of free market economics. Lebanon came as close as any country has to maintaining a system of laissez-faire capitalism, unfettered by government regulation. It had long prospered as a key trading center between the Middle East and Europe and continued its growth in the early 1960s. Many documents in the collection capture the flavor of dealings among Lebanese entrepreneurs, government officials, and business people of other countries. The collection also provides documentation of other economic matters including the ever-present labor strikes, relations with the big oil pipeline companies, the establishment of the central bank, the Litani River hydroelectric project, agriculture, civil aviation, U.S. aid, construction, manufacturing, commerce, government finances, balance of payments, and economic and monetary policy. In addition to its extensive documentation of the refugee problem both inside and outside Palestine, the collection also includes bodies of material on other social topics including colleges and universities, especially the American University of Beirut and the American Community School; medicine; press controls and censorship; and background information on powerful families.

Ancillary Material on Palestine, Israel, Syria, and Turkey Providing a broader context for researchers, this collection also includes subsets of documents on Palestine, Israel, Syria, and Turkey. The contents of these subsets are summarized below. Palestine. Documents cover the proposed establishment of a Palestinian state; relations with Israel, Jordan, other Arab countries, and non-Arab countries; economic and labor conditions; Jerusalem elections; United Nations (UN) activities; the Palestine Liberation Front; Palestinian military training; self-help projects; Israeli immigration; the resettlement of refugees in Latin America; refugee repatriation issues; communications, including Jerusalem newspapers; the conditions at Mount of Olives cemetery; and the water dispute between Jerusalem and Bethlehem.

xi xii ORGANIZATION OF THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE DECIMAL FILING SYSTEM

From 1910 to 1963 the Department of State used a decimal classification system to organize its Central Files. This system assembled and arranged individual documents according to their subject, with each subject having a specific decimal code. The decimal system from 1950 to January 1963 consists of ten primary classifications numbered 0 through 9, each covering a broad subject area.

CLASS 0: Miscellaneous.

CLASS 1: Administration of the United States Government.

CLASS 2: Protection of Interests (Persons and Property).

CLASS 3: International Conferences, Congresses, Meetings, and Organizations.

CLASS 4: International Trade and Commerce. Trade Relations. Customs Administration.

CLASS 5: International Informational and Educational Relations. Cultural Affairs. Psychological Warfare.

CLASS 6: International Political Relations. Bilateral Treaties.

CLASS 7: Internal Political and National Defense Affairs.

CLASS 8: Internal Economic, Industrial, and Social Affairs.

CLASS 9: Other Internal Affairs. Communications. Transportation. Science.

xiii Internal Affairs For this section of the U.S. State Department Central Files, LexisNexis has microfilmed the documents contained in Classes 7, 8, and 9. Within these classes each subject is defined by a decimal file number. The decimal file number is followed by a slant mark (/). The number after the slant mark (/) refers to the date on which the document was generated. Documents within each decimal file number are arranged in chronological order. The entire decimal file number is stamped on the right side of the first page of every document. These classes are concerned almost exclusively with the internal matters of individual countries. The class number (7, 8, or 9) is followed by the country number. The number following the decimal point indicates subtopics within the major classifications. The date after the slant mark (/) identifies the individual document. In a small number of instances, documents were assigned erroneous or incomplete decimal numbers. LexisNexis has included, in brackets, corrected decimal entries. In addition, misfiled decimal number documents have also been included in brackets.

Example, 783A.13/9-2860

Subject—Executive Branch of Government: Cabinet; Ministry Class of Records— Internal Political and 783A.13/9-2860 Document Date— National Defense Affairs September 28, 1960

Country Number—Lebanon

783A.13/9-2860 indicates a document dated September 28, 1960, relating to the cabinet of the executive branch of government (13) in Lebanon (83A).

Note: For the convenience of the researcher, wherever a specific classification number totals more than one hundred pages, a breakdown of the material by month and year is provided. When applicable, major subjects have been included with the month and year breakdown.

Foreign Affairs For this section of the U.S. State Department Central Files, LexisNexis has microfilmed the documents contained in Class 6. Within this class, each subject is defined by a decimal file number. The decimal file number is followed by a slant mark (/). The number after the slant mark (/) refers to the date on which the document was generated. Documents within each decimal file number are arranged in chronological order. The entire decimal file number is stamped on the right side of the first page of every document. In this publication, records classified 683A deal with the foreign policy of Lebanon and its political relations with other nations. In a small number of instances, documents were assigned erroneous or incomplete decimal numbers. LexisNexis has included, in brackets, corrected

xiv decimal entries. In addition, misfiled decimal number documents have also been included in brackets.

Example, 683A.85/5-3162

Subject—Jordan

Class of Records— International Political 683A.85/5-3162 Document Date— Relations; Bilateral Treaties May 31, 1962

Country Number—Lebanon

683A.85/5-3162 indicates a document dated May 31, 1962, relating to the bilateral relations between Lebanon (83A) and Jordan (85).

Note: Whenever the documents under a specific classification number total more than one hundred pages, the guide writer provides a breakdown of the material by month and year. When applicable, the guide writer lists, in brackets under the classification number, major subjects that are covered throughout all of the months. The guide writer may list additional major subjects but only under the particular month and year in which they appear.

REEL INDEX

Entries in this index refer to specific documents within Confidential U.S. State Department Central Files, Lebanon, 1960–January 1963, Internal Affairs and Foreign Affairs. The documents are arranged according to the U.S. State Department’s decimal filing system. See the Organization of the U.S. Department of State Filing System section of this guide for a brief description of this system, as well as Sample Reel Index entries. For some decimal numbers, the guide writer has included additional topics (enclosed in brackets) following the decimal description. In addition, whenever the documents under a specific classification number total more than one hundred pages, the guide writer provides a breakdown of the material by month and year. When applicable, the guide writer lists, in brackets under the classification number, major subjects that are covered throughout all of the months. The guide writer may list additional major subjects but only under the particular month and year in which they appear. LexisNexis has filmed these documents as they are filed at the National Archives. In some instances, there are documents that appear to have been misclassified by the State Department. In these instances, the guide writer has included in brackets corrected decimal entries. In addition, misfiled decimal number documents have also been included in brackets. The four-digit number on the far left represents the frame number at which a particular decimal classification begins.
