Ail-Out Effort
Set By Jakarta
To Down Rebels
Singapore (IP) Rumors
circulating in Jakarta Satur
day said Loyalist transports
are loading troops and equip
ment, presumably for the
long-awaited amphibious at
tack on rebel-held Central
Sumatra.
Neutral observers believe
the Jakarta regime is prepar
ing an all-out effort to wipe
out the rebels before the
Moslem holy month of Rama
dan ends April 21.
The Loyalist army an
nounced Saturday it has
"mopped up" rebels in the
Donggala area of Celebes Is
land, dominating the narrow
neck that separates insurgent
held North Celebes from the
rest of the island.
No New Fighting
The communique made no
mention of new fighting on
Sumatra, saying only that
Loyalist troops are advancing
into the "neutral" province
of Tapanuli, straddling the
northern approaches to the
Rebel capital at Bukittingi.
Loyrlist forces have been
halted for days at the north
ern border of Tapanuli, seek
ing permission to cross the
province.
The ..Jakarta regime reiter
ated denials that it has made
any arms deal with the Com
munists, but informed sources
said some 20 Soviet- built
Mi? jet fighters are expectedJ
to arrive m Jakarta next
month.
The United States has re
fused so far to sell weapons
either to the Loyalists or to
the Rebels, but it is supplying
the Jakarta regime with am
phibians for air- sea search
and rescue work.
The first five of an initial
order of eight Albatross am
phibians have already arrived
here. Reports circulating here
said the government plans to
order additional amphibians
and probably some helicopt
ers as well.
Seven Injured
In Auto Mishap
Seven people were slightly
injured Friday, night about
8:20 p.m. when a car failed
to make a turn about 3A of
a mile from Central Point on
the Jacksonville highway, ac
cording to state police.
Police said the vehicle was
operated by Robert Lee Fish
er, 23, of 1333 Biddle rd., who
was cited for violation of the
basic rule after his car landed
in Jackson creek.
Police said passengers in
the car T h r e s s a Fisher,
23, of 1333 Biddle rd.; Jerry
L. Kisler, 22, of 2816 Hand
ley rd.; Nancy Norris, 19, of
103 Lozier lane; Ann Pierce,
20, of Eugene; Carolyn Ma
thiesen, 19, of Eugene; and

sile Saturday assumed new
importance in the U. S. de
fense picture with the dis
closure it can be fired from
an underwater "pop up"

Dramatic facts about the

of the Polaris program.
He told a news conference
development of a megaton
warhead for the 1,500-mile

breakthrough" by the Atomic
Energy commission. A mega
ton warhead would' carry the
explosive force of one million
tons of TNT.
A model of the Polaris was
unveiled Friday at a seapow
er symposium conducted by
the District of Columbia Navy
league. Although the size of
the warhead was not dis
closed, viewers estimated it at
under 20 inches in diameter
and about three feet long.
The Polaris model shown
was about 28 feet tall.
Raborn revealed the Navy
has fired a full-scale model
of its Polaris from the revo
lutionary "pop up" launcher

the California coast. He said
the launching occurred Mar.

Department officials ad
