But the president chose another course. He announced the changes in a state of the union speech to a joint session of Parliament. There were boos from about half the deputies and senators.

Kasavubu said the concentration had been nec- essary to restore a measure of normal life, but is now a handi- cap to "effective control of ad- ministrative activities." Troops took up positions outside all public buildings and checked passes. But the capital was calm and the people were taking the attitude of "leave politics to the politicians."

The U.S. State Department still appears to be waiting for the smoke to clear in Indonesia and some firm indi- cation of what elements are in control. There is every indication now that the army is running the In- donesian show, with no one man holding complete power, although much authority seems to be in the hands of Maj. Gen. Suharto. Dis- patches from Jakarta point to a combination of generals-a junta -with men like Suharto and Ab- dul Haris Nasution, the armed forces chief, at its head. Sukarno Loss of power by Sukarno seems to have been confirmed in the latest developments. A government official pictured him as consid- ering plans to establish a new Communist party leaning away from Red China. But the army still permitted mobs to sack Com- munist installations, and army of- ficials 'have told correspondents that any "new-style" Communist party also should be crushed. Young demonstrators stoned and sacked a Red youth head- quarters here yesterday in sup- port of the army's anti-Commu- nist campaign, reputed now to have the tacit approval of Presi- dent Sukarno. About 2000 strong, the mob smashed windows, seized docu- ments and broke furniture in the Communist youth hall only 100 yards from Sukarno's palace. The hall has been a traditional gath- ering place for anti-Western street. demonstrations. As in other such raids since Moslem youths burned the head- quarters of the Indonesian Com- munist party-PKI-here last Fri- day, the demonstrators shouted, for destruction of the party and the death .of its fugitive leader, D. N. Aidit. - "Hang Aidit!" they cried. "Crush the PKI!" They made a bonfire of the doc- uments and broken furniture. Troops nearby watched without interfering. Palace guards moved in with fixed bayonets and bioke it up when it seemed the demon- strators might get out of hand. Sukarno, who has played the Communists against the army to balance political forces in Indo- nesia, had excused the Conimu- nists in the Sept. 30 attempted coup. Yet the army announced that It had his "tacit" approval for its anti-Communist campaign.
