SATURDAY, MARCH 26, 1966 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE RE SATURDAY, MARCH 26, 1966 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAE~ TTf1U~'1E a C)U f.:r 1 R11 C.P it Suharto Fails To Complete New Cabinet Jakarta Government Shaky; Students Call For Non-Communists JAKARTA, Indonesia (')-In- donesia's new .regime failed again yesterday to reach agreement on a new Cabinet, indicating that time may be running out on Lt. Gen. Suharto, the strong man. The powerful student organi- zations, whose demonstrations forced President Sukarno to yield supreme power, may take to the streets again unless Suharto gets a Cabinet together and takes posi- tive steps to head off economic collapse. Antara news agency said the students declared Suharto should have a Cabinet free of Commun- ists and composed of honest people who have authority to act. Hits Subandrio Ouster A spokesman for the group, the Moslem Party (PSI), said the foreign policy of Sukarno's ousted lieutenant, Foreign Minister Su- bandrio, "has caused Indonesia to 'lose a number. of friends and low- ered her prestige in the world." The spokesman also blamed Su- bandrio,. whose policies alienated the United State and brought an end to U.S. aid, for Indonesia's, economic troubles. Subandrio, gen- erally considered pro-Red Chinese, has been arrested. The Cabinet issue came up again before a meeting of the five-man government presidium. Afterward, Sukarno left for his summer palace at Bogor, 40 miles south of Ja- karta, for the weekend, indicating that there will be no Cabinet de- cision before next week, because the new regime needs his assent. Meets Students Suharto met with a delegation of the students and supporting political parties and complained about problems of getting the new Cabinet together. He said "vested interests" were trying to name some of the min- isters. Suharto did not name these interests, but speculation is that they could be Sukarno or several political parties trying to get the ministries. Suharto said frankly the econ- omy is "in a state of collapse but we should be able now to over- come some of the economic dif- ficulties." The students have gone' back quietly to their classes to await the results they expect Su- harto to produce. Stumbling Block Suharto's biggest stumbling block in trying to correct the: sprawling archipelago's crumbling economy is formation of the Cab- inet. He is seeking to build a tightly knit group of ministers who can implement an economic pro- gram that will work. One factor that has made Su- harto move deliberately has been Sukarno. Although Suharto has taken over power to implement government policy, he keeps re- emphasizing that Sukarno is the supreme commander and the great leader of the revolution. Suharto knows Sukarno still is popular with the masses. To meet immediate food prob- lems, the new regime is negoti- ating with Thailand for rice, if;- formed sources reported. Indonesia has no foreign exchange reserves but some Indonesians believe Thai- land might offer credits to show its pleasure at the ouster of Su- bandrio and other pro-Commun- ists. Japan and the Netherlands also may offer credits. Bonn, United States Advocate Halt to Nuclear Weapon's Spread -Associated Press EAST CHATS WITH WEST Prime Minister of India Indira Gandhi sits with French President Charles de Gaulle at Palace in Paris, France. Mrs. Gandhi was the luncheon guest of de ,Gaulle yesterday. she will fly to Washington to see President Johnson at the White House Monday. the Elysee Tomorrow FIVE-DAY ACTION: Troops End Coastal Sweep; Buddhists' Strike Continues By The Associated Press As Secretary of State Dean Rusk 1 yesterday was voicing strong hopes that the major world's nuclear powers would soon move to agree- ment toward a ban on the spread of atomic weapons, West Ger- many's Chancellor Ludwig Erhard initiated his own programsto haltr the proliferation of weapons. Erhard, in a statement to the West German Bundestag (Parlia- ment), subsequently sent to al- most all the governments of the world with the exception of Red China, said his administration would consent to reduce the num- ber of nuclear weapons in Europe sten by step. Erhard wants countries without nuclear weapons to promise not to acquire them, and nuclear nations to agree not to spread them. He said the European disarma- ment agreement must extend to the whole of Europe, and all, in- cluding the Soviet Union, must preserve the present overall bal- ance of power, provide effective controls, and must "be linked with essential progress in the solution of political problems in central Europe,"~ The West German proposals came as Lord Chalfont, Britain's disarmament minister, was con- ferring in Moscow with Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei A. Gro- myko on a pact to halt the spread of nuclear weapons. Chalfont was reported trying to convince the Russians that the latest U.S. pro- posal would bar West Germany from firing a nuclear weapon. The American proposals in broa' outline were given by Rusk at a Washington press conference yes- terday. He spoke of a "central underly- ing attitude" among the nuclear nations that atomic "proliferation is dangerous and undesirable." "I hone very much that we can move towards a - nonproliferation treaty and promptly," he said Such a pact has been discussed at length at the drawn-out Geneva disarmament conference. Nuclear newcomers France anc' Communist China are not at the Geneva talks, and Rusk did not specify how they might be swung into an agreement. But he declar- ed progress could come speedily if "irrelevant" issues such -as Viet Nam are kept out of disarmament discussions. Erhard's spokesman declined tc take a stand on the American pro- posal. West German officials are known to be worried by the possi- bility that the Communist govern-, ment of East Germany would be permitted to sign a general pact -as it was allowed to sign the partial nuclear test ban in 1963 West German policy is based on its claim to be the only government that represents the German peo- ple, and on preventing any inter- national recognition of East Ger- many. Erhard's speech and the note make it plain the present West: German government does not want its own nuclear arms. But within the Atlantic alliance, it wants par- tial responsibility. Rusk indicated also that: " The United States is consid- ering recognizing the pro-Russian Asian state of Outer Mongolia. " He has ordered an investiga- tion of the State Department's procedures in forwarding to U.S. embassies FBI requests for spe- cial watches on certain American citizens traveling abroad.

SAIGON ()-United States Ma-I rines and South Vietnamese troops yesterday wound up Operation Texas, an offensive sweep on the central coastal plains, effectively eliminating the Viet Cong's 1st Regiment in the process. Demolition squads capped the five-day offensive of 5,000 Marines and Vietnamese troops with 6,000 pounds of dynamite. They blew up abandoned Communist fortifi- cations in Quang Ngai Province, 330 miles northeast of Saigon. With food ranking essentially as high as ammunition, Marines turned from that offensive to score in the defensive role of guarding a rice harvest. Viet Cong assault tactics, unsuccessful in several instances earlier this week, backfired again. U.S. Navy and Air Force pilots, barred from striking at sources in the Hanoi-Haiphong area, hit again at its facilities for the movement of supplies. Political clouds still hovered over South Viet Nam's northern pro- vinces, where Buddhists and stu- dents are campaigning for a speed- up in promised governmental, eco- nomic and social reforms. The university at Hue, the old imperial capital, was closed and a general strike persisted for the third day in Da Nang. Nguyen Huu Giao, head of a Hue student wing of a Buddhist organ- ization named "People's Struggle for the Revolution," called on Premier Nguyen Cao Ky for an answer by Sunday to Buddhist demands for a popularly elected government to succeed his military regime. Giao said "there may be violence" if the Saigon authorities try to block student demonstra- tions. In Manila, hundreds of torch- bearing students and union work- ers demonstrated before the Phil- ippine Congress and the U.S. Em- bassy against President Ferdinand E. Marcos' plan to send 2,000 Philippine troops to South Viet Nam.
