Somewhere in West Java, Jan. 26 U.R) Capt. Paul (Turk)
Westerling informally declared war on the Indonesian republican
army today and sent a striking force of his guerrilla army into
Jakarta where it fought a two-hour street battle.
The renegade Dutch leader predicted that big scale fighting
would break out soon in West Java, probably would last some
thru months, and he would win.8
This correspondent talked
with Westerling somewhere in
Wert Java while his army struck
into the capital city and fought
wildly with republican forces
round the government build
ings. Westerling himself did not
take part In the Jakarta attack.
His raiders finally fell back
from the battle-scarred streets of
Jakarta under withering ma
chine gun fire. At least seven
persons were reported killed and
"many" wounded in the battle.
It was the third raid of its
kind this week. The guerrillas
seized the big city of Bandoeng
Monday and held it for several
hours. Yesterday they attack
ed a Tall town near Bandoeng.
A barrel chested man with
black hair and blue-black eyes,
swarthy and blunt spoken, West
erling met this correspondent
at a place which for obvious
reasons he did not care to have
mentioned.
He wore brown street shoes,
brown sox, white polo shirt and
khaki pants. He was not arm
ed. "Big scale fighting will break
out soon in West Java," he said
In his fluent English which bears
only a trace of an accent. "I
don't think it will last long,
maybe about three months. I
know I am going to win.
"I am not trying to set myself
up as a warlord. I am not try
ing to form my own government.
I am only trying to help the
people."
Westerling wore a gold wrist
watch and a gold ring with
black onyx stone on his left
hand. He said he was of Dutch
and Turkish parentage, and ex
pressed a desire to go to Turkey
"when everything is okay over
here."
"I am trying to remove the
Japanese influence from the
TNI (Tentara Nasional Indo
nesia, or republican army)," he
said.
"I have tried everything I
could to avoid clashes, but it is
not possible to avoid them be
cause the republican army still
is operating under Japanese
mentality. The republican army
terrorizes the people.'
Asked about the background
of the outbreaks this week
Westerling said:
"Four days after the trans
fer of sovereignty from the Dutch
to Indonesia on Dec. 27, I held
talks with the republican army
officers. We agreed to work to
gether to maintain law and or
der in West Java.
"I kept my word. I tried to
work with the republican army,
but it did not reciprocate. It
tried to cause trouble by arrest
ing people.
"Day after day the situation
got worse until I sent a note
warning them to recognize my
forces. It was not an ultimatum.
but a warning. I gave the date
of Jan. 12 and later extended it
by request of the United Na
tions military observers, to Feb.
12
Capital Journal, Salem, Ore., Thursday, January 26, 195019
'I said I didn't want to be
responsible for what happened
after that date.
'I said I didn't want to be re
sponsible for what happened aft
er that date.
'I have tried everything to
avoid clashes. But big scale
fighting now will break out.
Bandoeng is not exactly a dem
onstration but a warning to show
the republican army where
things stand."
He insisted that his only ulti
mate objective was to purge the
republican army of its "Jap
anese influence" and help to
create a stable army for the
United States of Indonesia.
"Eighty per oent of the peo
ple do not want the republican
army," he said. "They want a
United States of Indonesia army
but are afraid to tell the truth
because they are terrorized."
