Sukarn<
JAKARTA, Indonesia (P) - The
rift between President Sukarno
and the army appeared to widen
yesterday over the military crack-
down on Communists.
Apparently failing in his ef-
forts to curb the anti-Communist
and anti-Red Chinese campaign,
Sukarno called in leaders of sev-
en political parties.
Members of these parties have
been taking part in the campaign
against the Communists and it
was believed Sukarno asked them
to stop.
Diplomatic quarters were sur-

prised at the army's determination
to crack down against the Com-
munists despite the objections of
Sukarno, who has enjoyed popu-
larity among the people.
Sukarno has persisted in main-
taining friendly relations with
Communist China. The army ac-
cused Peking of backing the In-
donesian Communists in the at-
tempted coup against Sukarno Oct.
1.
Good relations with Red China
have been a cornerstone of Su-
karno's foreign policy. At home,
he has tried to balance off the

Communists against the army. So anger over the coup attempt they

pers had complained about the
speech. Subandrio had charged
that Jakarta papers were receiv-
ing money from the U.S. Central

Subandrio retracted the state-
ment Tuesday, saying "I did not
charge that there is a newspaper
receiving aid or being used by the
CIA." But the army broadcast
that portion of his speech saying
"there are indications that the
present newspapers are being fi-
nanced by the CIA."

Faced with mounting criticism
from the army and from anti-
Communist demonstrators, Suban-
drio, who also is foreign minister,
will not represent Indonesia at the

* Aircraft Destroyed
In 'Well-Coordinated'
Strikes Against Bases
DA NANG () -Viet Cong guer-
rillas launched simultaneous at-
tacks with mortars and infiltra-
tionAteams at an air facility near
Da Nang and at the Chu Lai air-
fild shortly before midnight yes-
terday.
U.S. Marines are based at Da
Nang and Chu Lai. A Marine
Corps spokesman said "a couple
of aircraft were destroyed" at each
air installation.
Helicopters Destroyed
The spokesman said two heli-
copters were destroyed at what is
known as "Da Nang East Airbase"
just across the Da Nang River
from the big Air Force base here.
The main base in Da Nang was
not attacked.
The east airbase facility at
Marbled Mountain has about 40
Marine helicopters.
The spokesman reported that
probably a couple of A-4 Sky-
hawk jet attack bombers were de-
stroyed at Chu Lai airbase, a
Marine center about 52 miles south
of Da Nang which is home base
for a Marine jet fighter-bomber
group and a helicopter group.
The spokesman said there may
have been more aircraft destroy-
ed, but that no firm assessment
was available immediately.
Coordinated Attack
He said the attack was "ob-
viously well coordinated."
The Chu Lai Air Base was hit
about 11:30 p.m. with mortars and
six-man infiltration squads carry-
ingexplosive satchel charges, the
spokesman said. About 20 minutes
later, 'the Da Nang east facility
at Marble Mountain wa attacked
with mortars.
The Viet Cong struck for a sec-
ond time at Marble Mountain
about 1:30 a.m, Thursday, again
with mortar fire.
The Marine spokesman said at
least two Viet Cong were confirm-
ed killed at Chu Lai and that
there were reports that as many
as nine others had been killed
there.
Attack Main Base,
The main air base at Da Nang
was attacked July 1 by a small
Viet Cong infiltration squad that
penetrated the base and killed
one American air policeman, de-
stroyed three planes and damaged
three others. That attack was car-
ried out on the east end of the
main runway at the main air base
here. This facility was not hit in
the latest attack.
On Aug. 5 Viet Cong guerrillas
destroyed part of a fuel storage
complex near Da Nang.
The air facility at Marble Moun-
tain is a landing area plus main-
tenance works for helicopters only.
It does not provide a strip for the
handling of fixed wing aircraft.

IBeame Fails To Get
LBJ Endorsement

.NEW YORK to)-Democrat Ab-
raham D. Beame, in a close race
with Republican Rep. John V.
Lindsay for mayor, was without
President Johnson's endorsement
yesterday.
Although the election is 'next
Tuesday, Johnson has so far sent
only his "warmest regards."
Beame's aides say Johnson will
still come through, but will choose
his own occasion. One of Beame's
campaign themes has been that,
as a Democrat, he could get more
from Washington.
Lindsay smiled and declined to
comment, "out of respect for the'
President."
The Republican congressman,
fighting a 7-2 Democratic regis-

tration margin, has refused help
from GOP leaders and has dub-
bed his campaign "non-partisan."
He also has the Liberal party
nomination and has a Democrat
and a Liberal as running mates.
Vice-President Hubert H. Hum-
phrey endorsed Beame at a $100-
a-plate dinner Tuesday night.
Sen. Robert F. Kennedy (D-
NY) campaigned in the streets
for him yesterday.
Retiring Mayor Robert F. Wag-
ner, who backed another man as
his successor, waited a month
after the September primary be-
fore endorsing Beame. Now recov-
ering from Asian flu, Wagner said
his health may not let him cam-
paign.

The act abolished political par-L
ties, empowered Castello Branco
to declare a state of siege and to
rule by decree up to 180 days, en-
larged the supreme court, gave
military courts broad powers, and
provided for indirect election of
the president by Congress, not the
people.
All these hard-hitting measures
had faced tough sledding and
probable defeat in Congress. The
government was unable to get a
majority Tuesday night for its
amendment authorizing it to in-
tervene in states and combat sub-
version. This triggered yesterday's
decree.
Leftists Oppose
Mustering a majority against
the amendment were backers of
ex-President Joao Goulart, the
leftist booted out by the military-
civilian uprising of April 1964, and
ex-President Juscelino Kubitschek.
Castello Branco took over the
presidency after Goulart's ouster.
Kubitschek returned from self-
exile Oct. 4 after his Social Dem-
ocrats won important victories in
state elections, which angered the
government and the military.
The president told the people
his regime faces danger from
backers of Goulart who "threaten
and dare revolutionary action."
Goulart last was , reported in
neighboring Uruguay.
"Revolution is alive," Castello
Branco said, "and does not re-
treat."
Military Courts
Therefore, Castello Branco
transferred to military courts all
crimes "against national security
and military institutions."
Kubitschek's Social Democratic
party, with 120 deputies in the
409-seat Congress, led the attack
on the government program.
The institutional act provides
that the president will set the date
for the next presidential election
in Congress, which must be held
no later than Oct. 3, 1966. Castello
Branco cannot run then.

zien came the nationwide pro-
test marches and draft card burn-
ings. Dumont argued that all of
these incidents proved the dangers
of having teachers like Genovese
around.
Both Hughes and Dumont have
received aid from a few of their,
party's national bigwigs. Sen. Rob-
ert F. Kennedy of New York
came to New Jersey to back
Hughes on Genovese while former
Vice-President Richard M. Nixon
endorsed Dumont's stand. Former
President Dwight D. Eisenhower,
Vice-President Hubert H. Hum-
phrey and others have come into
the state to help out their party's
man.
Hughes, a 56-year-old former
judge, became governor four years
ago when he upset the late James
P. Mitchell, secretary of labor in
the Eisenhower cabinet. A remar-
ried widower with 10 children, he

VATICAN CITY-The Vatican
Ecumenical Council finished de-

de'claration yesterday with many
progressives apparently resisting
newly inserted stress on the Ro-

tholicism is Christ's one true
church.
The progressives' objections,
however, likely will bring only
minimal rewording. The decree
could come in November, or pos-
sibly at the council's December
