Buddhists Continue Their!
Ani overnment Dissent

Demonstrate'
In Passive
Resistance
Demonstrators Want
Ky Government To
Resign Immediately
SAIGON (M)-The Buddhists
continued to pursue a chaotic,
emotional campaign yesterday.
A 16-year-old girl, Dao Thi
Tuyet, set herself aflame in the
Buddhist Institute compound in
an Abortive attempt to emulate
nine Buddhists who committed
suicide by fire in late May 'and
early June. Severely burned, she
survived. Monks said she left a
4 letter to President Johnson pro-
testing U.S. policy in Viet Nam
and another to Chau pleading
with him to line up with the
extremists.
About 100 monks offered them-
selves for arrest in a passive re-
sistance movement because the
ruling generals ignored a recent
demand from the institute that
they resign. Prison officials, after
telephone consultation with the
government, arrested those of
draft age and dispersed the rest
with tear gas.
A source in contact with mill-
tary intelligence in the north said
propeller-driven Skyraiders of
Ky's air force shot up a small
unit of 1st Division troops who
-ordered north from Hue for an
ostensible operation against the
Viet Cong-turned after 10 miles
or so and headed back toward the
city. The unit was said to be part
of the division's 3rd Regiment.
There was no word on casualties.
It was also reported that, among
perhaps 1,500 military dissidents
at the division's headquarters in
Hue, 150 surrendered to the gov-
ernment forces
Resistance
There were still pockets of re-
sistance and sporadic firing in
Hue. At least three persons were
killed and a dozen wounded. Some
estimates of the casualties were
higher.
hThe government apparently
wanted to avoid a major show-
down such as that last month in
Da Nang, where troops finally
forced the surrender of Buddhist
rebels entrenched in pagodas after
bitter fighting.
Antigovernment demonstrations
' took place in several areas near
Hue. In one town, a column of
loyalist troops was fired on by
men wearing the robes of monks.
In Qui Nhon about 2,000 Budd-
hists marched through the streets,
proclaiming a "fight until the
end" against the government.
In Saigon, despite the 9 p.m.
curfew, some demonstrators milled
outside the Buddhist Institute,
burning automobile tires and
chanting slogans.
Troops had sealed off the area,
but showed no sign of moving in.;
Government Ban
Meanwhile, a government de-!
cree banned the activity of Budd-
hist chaplains in the army on the
company and battalion level. The
government charged that chap-
lains were subverting the troops,
inciting them to rebellion.
In disavowing the strike move-
ment and other agitation, Tam
Chau said, "I will fight for the
religion, but in the spirit of com-
promise and nonviolence."
The moderate monk, a slight 86-
pounder, had left the institute,
which was taken over by extremist
monks. But he insisted he still
was its head and not "a third-
class messenger."
This again underlined the feuds

and divisions in the institute,
whose following is supposed to
make up about one-tenth of South
Viet Nam's 15 million people.
The government acted with de-
termination and strength, be-
lieving that it has granted all:
legitimate Buddhists demands in
procedures for return of civilian
rule in 1967.
Meanwhile, the regime prepared
to announce a series of sweeping
' economic measures aimed at halt-
ing skyrocketing inflation.
Lower Monetary Value
Informed sources said one of
the measures will lower the value
of the Vietnamese piaster on im-
port duties. There are now three
different rates for plasters in re-
lation to the dollar.
The government also was ex-
pected to clamp still more con-
trols on the prices for essential
products. The cost of living in
Saigon climbed 55 per cent in the
past 12 months, causing wide-
spread dissatisfaction.
Aprial camnaigning dominated

Buddhist demonstrators overturned an American vehicle and set fire to it in Saigon yesterday. Much
of the dissent is aimed at the U.S. support of Ky and his government. Radical Buddhists would like
the present regime to resign immediately. Buddhist leaders have called for a three-day strike as vio-
lence continued for the fifth day.
US. Claims Viet Cong Sows
Signs o Weakening Morale

More Aid
Requested by
Indonesia
Foreign Minister
Asks To Delay
Debt Repayments
JAKARTA, Indonesia (IP) -
Bankrupt but potentially rich,
Indonesia will rely heavily on the
United States for financial and
technical aid in the next few
years.
This was disclosed yesterday in
an interview with Foreign Minis-
ter Adam Malik, a new voice of
moderation in a civilian-military
regime that is trying to undo the
sins of the past pro-Communist
government.
The mood in this huge island-
chain nation marks a turn away
from the face slapping Indonesia
repeatedly handed the United
States in recent years.
The slender foreign minister
stressed that Indonesia did not
want billions of dollars dropped
in its lap from the rich United
States.
"We have no way to use so
much money all at once at this
time," he said.
Stabilization Program
In addition to guided financial
assistance, w h i c h Indonesia's
strangled economy badly needs,
Malik asked that the United
States understand its new pro-
gram of stabilization.
He asked that help be given by
Washington on rescheduling, or
delaying, repayment of debts owed
bp Indonesia to the United States
and other countries. Indonesia
was some $2.4 billion in foreign
debts.
Indonesia owes the United
States about $174.4 million, third
largest creditor behind the Soviet
Union and Japan.
"If you want to help this coun-
try, don't give away money like
that," Malik said, snapping his
fingers.
More Understanding
He asked that instead, more
understanding of what Indonesia
is attempting to achieve in its
own way should be attempted by
foreign nations.
In addition to delaying payment
of debts, Malik said he hoped the
United States would be willing to
provide food and spare machinery
parts. The United States already
has contracted to sell Indonesia
50,000 tons of rice valued at more
than $8 million.
Malik predicted Indonesia would
ask the United States to bring
back its Agency for International
Development in the near fuaure.
U.S. Embassy sources have indi-
cated this may be approved.
Despite the criticism and vio-
lence directed against the United
States during the heyday of the
Indonesian Communist pa r ty,
America has continued to main-
tain working relations with In-
donesia. It is the world's fifth
largest nation, with 105 million
people, and is perhaps the richest
nation in Asia in natural re-
sources.

Contacts
LONDON ()-Red Chinese au-
thorities have begun blocking con-
tacts between their citizens and
foreigners according to diplomatic
reports reaching Western capitals.
Qualified informants said yes-
terday surveillance has been in-
creased considerably over all for-
eigners in the country-diplomats
and private visitors alike-since
early June.
At the same time Chinese citi-
zens who work for, or retain con-
tact with, Russians, Western,
Asian or African missions are be-
ing regularly shadowed.
Hong Kong Chinese who wanted
to visit relatives on the mainland
have received letters from their
kinsmen asking them to wait until
later in the year.
Cultural Revolution
Specialists on Chinese affairs
here consider this new develop-
ment could be part of the cultural
revolution spreading through the
land or might be a by-product of
the countrywide hunt for "coun-
terrevoluntionaries" and "revision-
ists"-or pro-Russians.
In the view of Western author-
ities, the antiparty purge has been
touched off by Mao Tze-tung's
failing health. Already it has led
to the ouster of Peking's Mayor
Peng Chen, a member of the Polit-
buro, among others.
Among the manifestations of
declining contact between Chinese
and foreigners reported by diplo-
mats in Peking:
-An increasing measure of sur-
veillance has been imposed on
foreigners visiting the Ming tombs
in Peking.
-A curfew has been placed on
boating and other picnics at the
summer palace lake in the capital.
-Some pressure seems to be
building up on Chinese nationals
working in foreign diplomatic
missions.
Public Execution
In the same general context one
event that shocked some foreign
diplomats in Peking was the public
trial and execution Monday of a
17-year-old Chinese, ang Juo-
ching, on charges of nifing two
"friendly foreigners."
The two, a visiting journalist
from Mali and the wife of an East
German diplomat, were injured
and Yang on Monday was judged
to be "an incorrigible counter-
revolutionary criminal." Last
month, long before Yang went on
trial, Chinese officials were said
to have passed word that he would
be executed.
One purpose of Yang's penalty,
in the view of diplomats, was to
enable the Chinese authorities to
strengthen control over foreigners
in Peking and to discourage their
contacts with citizens. Another

CHOU IN ROMANIA:
Red Chinese Officials Restrict

WASHINGTON (M)-The Food
and Drug Administration an-
nounced yesterday a major over-
haul of regulations for special diet
foods and diet supplements.
The agency estimated that
Americans spend between $375
million and $500 million a year on
these products.
Dr. James L. Goddard, food and
drug commissioner, said the new
rules should sweep away many
common misconceptions about the
kinds and amounts of vitamins
and minerals needed in the diet,
and how they are obtained.
The new labeling requirements
also will give the consumer more
facts about calories, Goddard said,
adding:"Weight-conscious Ameri-
cans will know, for example, ex-
actly how many calories they are
saving by buying artificially
sweetened foods."
Regulations Studied
The regulations, designed to be-
come effective in 180 days, are a
four-year distillation of proposals
advanced by the -agency in 1962.
Goddard said more than 50,000
comments were received, 99 per
cent of which he said were the
result of an organized campaign
against the proposed rules.
Yesterday's order described the
outgrowth of a review of the 1962
proposals and all the comments
and recommendations received.
about them.
Objections must be filed within
30 days, and individual provisions
may be stayed, the agency said,

if there are "legally justified re
quests for public hearings."
New Regulations
The Food and Drug Administra
tion said its new regulations will:
-Restrict "low calorie" labelir
to those foods that contain 15 o
fewer calories per serving.
-Limit "reduced in calorie
claims to those food products tha
contain at least 50 per cent fewe
calories than their ordinary coun
terparts.
-Established eight classes o
foods that may be "fortified" wit
vitamins and minerals. These in
elude breakfast cereals and iodize

-Stipulate which nutrition
elements, and the amountso
each, may be used in "fortifiec
foods.
-Prohibit extravagant promo

said, "eat foods which provide a

more than 500 persons, including
12 Buddhist monks, were arrested.

antigovernment demonstrations in
Saigon despite a published warn-
ing from Thich Tam Chau, mod-
erate chairman of the Buddhist
Institute, that "if your struggle
fails, the Unified Buddhist Church
will no longer exist."

"The Prime Minister and the
President of the United States

statement said.
"This meeting will take place

Aides reported the arrangement
came out of a suggestion made to
Wilson last Friday by Secretary of

his way home from a European
tour. Rusk thought the time had
come for another of the regular
encounters between prime minis-
ter and president which allow
them to swap ideas on big world

Morale Is Key
Under the rules of the confer-
ence, the principal speakers could
not be quoted by name or their
government agency identified.
The teachers were told that
morale is the key to how the mil-
itary campaign is going and there
now are faint signs of a break-
down in the Reds' will to go on
fighting.
However, from North Viet Nam's
capital "here are no signs that
the Ho regime is prepared to move
in any way out of the war, either
through peace negotiations or
through a reduction in forces
brought about without formal
talks, it was stated.
U.S. Won't Quit
The educators heard also that
the North Vietnamese appear to
understand that domestic criti-
cism of President Johnson's Viet
Nam policy does not mean the
United States is likely to quit the
war effort.
The Hanoi authorities appear to
understand where the center of
gravity is in the United States, the
U.S. officials said.
The nature of the questions put
to the administration speakers
and the applause for their re-
sponses indicated that there was

trol devices available to those
drawing welfare checks and to the

In his recent statement, Bishop
