Martial Law Invoked in Syria
To Smooth Path to Socialism

Sukarno Steps

__

Up

Thrusts in Malaysia

DAMASCUS, Syria (P) - Lt.
Gen. Amin Hafez invoked martial
law yesterday to smooth Syria's
path toward socialism.
The soldier-politician, who is
president, premier and military
governor of this Arab nation, es-
tablished a five-man tribunal em-
powered to pass death sentences in
wiping out "reactionary attempts
to hamper the socialization proc-
ess."
Imperialists
"Internal reactionaries in col-
laboration with imperialist allies
abroad" have campaigned to cast
doubts on recent measures of the
ruling Baath Socialist Party, Ha-
fez charged.
These measures include the na-
tionalization of 115 industrial
companies, including the leading
cement and sugar plants. The
companies were estimated to be
worth about $100 million.
Loss of Capital
This operation has been attend-
ed by unconfirmed reports of a
A flight of capital. It is estimated as
much as $180 million may have
been smuggled out of the country.
Hafez mentioned no foreign na-
tion by name, but said:
"The (Syrian) capitalists are
powerful because of their money
and their imperialist allies abroad.
They have begun a propaganda
campaign to slander the social-
ist measures in Syria.
"But Syria's revolutionary re-
gime will mercilessly settle ac-
counts with this clique of trai-
tors. The regime will wipe out
anyone who stands in the way of
its liberationist policies."

Prompt support was expressed
by Syrian newspapers and the
General Federation of Trade Un-
ions.
Hafez' statement was carried
under headlines such as "Death
to the Enemies of the People."
The Labor Federation pledges
Syrian workers will "fight anti-
socialist reactionary intrigues by
punitive force."
The chairman of the new tri-
bunal is Col. Salah Dhilli, who
has presided over all Syria's emer-
gency courts since the Baath Par-
ty came to power in March 1963.
Cases
He and his fellow judges will
take up cases involving:
-Internal security violations.
-Opposition to the implemen-
tation of socialization in Syria,
whether by word or deed.
-Attacks on mosques a n d
churches or government, army
and factory buildings, and the
sowing of sectarian dissension.
-Engineering of unjustified
price increases and the smug-
gling of Syrian capital abroad.
-Acceptance of money from, or
cooperation with, a foreign nation

JAKARTA-Indonesia's Presi-
dent Sukarno may be preparing
for strong new thrusts against
neighboring Malaysia, intended to
stop short of provoking general
war in Southeast Asia.
Indonesia's departure from the
United Nations and concomitant
pronouncements from Jakarta and
Peking sent shudders through the
world's chancelleries. The danger
of broad conflict in Southeast
( Asia seems to be growing.
Red China
Malaysia's foreign ministry
speculates that the "crush Ma-
laysia" venture has been planned
jointly by Indonesia and Red
China. Peking's foreign minister
Chen Yi visited Jakarta last
August. Sukarno visited China in
November.

The plan may be to create
revolutionary chaos in Malaysia
without going far enough to pro-
vide the country's protectors suf-
ficient provocation for drastic
countermeasures against Indone-
sia. The plan also may be rely-
ing on support from the large
Chinese minority inside Malaysian
territories.
Warning from Australia
Four months ago, Australia is-
sued a warning that "unprovoked
aggression in the territories of
Malaysia must be countered and
will be countered." Foreign Minis-
ter Paul Hasluck said Australia
has clear commitments in partner-
ship with Britain regarding the
defense of Malaysia.
Indonesia's regular army may
now be as large as 400,000, equip-
ped with Soviet weapons. In con-
testing with China for Indonesian
support of Soviet aims in Asia,

the Russians were reported to have
given Indonesia an additional
$150 million worth of arms in
1964. In all, building up Indonesia
over the years cost the U.S.S.R.
well over a billion dollars.
British and Commonwealth1
forces which can be considered
committed to Malaysia's defense
now probably total about 50,000,
plus naval and air support. Ma-
laysia's own regular armed forces
total less than 20,000, plus 35,000
in paramilitary forces guarding
internal security.
Evidently getting ready for a
critical situation, Peking propa-
ganda accuses the United States
and Britain of plotting measures
against Indonesia. The Peking
People's Daily said a few days ago
that "should United States and
British imperialism dare to launch
armed provocations against Indo-
nesia, they will not only meet with
strong rebuffs by the Indonesian

people, but will be firmly oppos-
ed by other Asian peoples."
Chinese Threat
This was short of a pledge of
Chinese participation in a show-
down, but it did indicate realiza-
tion that increased Indonesian
thrusts against Malaysia could
bring strong countermeasures.
The threat of new war in South-
east Asia creates problems for
Moscow and Washington. Moscow
invested much effort and money
in trying to persuade Indonesia
to support the U.S.S.R.'s claim to
be an Asian nation with valid in-
terests in shaping the continent's
destinies, but it failed.
For all practical purposes,
Sukarno's country now is in a
Peking-dominated bloc. Inside
Indonesia, the only really organ-
ized and functioning political
party is the Communist Party
numbering 2.5 million. The only
force from which could oppose it

is the army, and even its high-
ranking officers have professed to
see no peril in the Communist
strength.
Enlarged hostilities in Indonesia
would place Moscow in an uncom-
fortable position, requiring it to
make a stand which could hardly
be on the side of those denounced
by the Communist world as im-
perialists.
There would be worry in Wash-
ington, too, should the British
Commonwealth be pushed toward
open armed conflict in Southeast
Asia.
That could change the whole
strategic picture in Viet Nam, with
an immediate prospect of enlarg-
ed war there. It also could spell
direct United States involvement
in the Indonesia-Malaysia situa-
tion. The U.S. 7th Fleet, in Asian
waters, could be involved on the
side of America's allies in a show-
down.

NATO MULTILATERAL FORCE:

U.S. Proposes Nuclear Weapons System

By BEM PRICE
Associated Press Newsfeatures Writer
WASHINGTON-For four years
the United States has been talk-
ing about creating a nuclear
weapons system for the North At-
lantic Treaty Organization which
would be called the Multilateral
Force-MLF, for short.
Basically, the purpose is to make
the United States and Europe
partners in the operation and
maintenance of a separate nuclear
deterrent against possible Soviet
aggression.
The partnership would in no
way affect United States' control
of its own nuclear force.
Support and Opposition
MLF has been endorsed by West
Germany and opposed by France,
with Great Britain more or less
on the fence so far.
The smaller nations within the
NATO alliance currently seem
content to abide by whatever ac-

cord is reached by the larger pow- given some voice, it will build'
