Equal Partnership
Van Mook said negotiations
between the Dutch and Indo
nesians on the islanders' re
quests for independence prob
ably would be resolved by an
"equal partnership" and provi
sions for the Indonesians to de
cide later whether they wished
to continue such a partnership.
Van Mook said the main need
in Indonesia was not so much
for food as for textiles. Negotia
tions now are under way with
the United States, Britain and

000 and $500,000,000 in foreign

Win Jap Vote
TOKYO, April 13 (Virtu
ally final, unofficial returns
from Japan's general election
emphasized tonight that a heavy
conservative bloc would domi
nate the house of representa
tives which meets May 10 to con
sider a new constitution.
Meantime, Japanese were
promised a lively fight between
Premier Shidehara, who is de
termined to retain his cabinet
until the constitution has been
adopted, and Liberal Party
Leader Iohiro Hatoyama, who
wants to form a coalition gov
ernment. With only one seat of the 466
member house to be filled, news
paper figures gave the liberals
who actually are conservative
141 seats, a lead of 48 over their
nearest rivals, the progressives,
who also are conservative. The
progressive membership was re
duced by tonight's figures to S3.
With their total of 234 votes,
the two parties hold a bare ma
jority, but may get support from
many of the 80 independents and
some of the 92 social democrats
elected. The latter has both
right and left factions. Other
seats went to: minor parties 39,
cooperatives 14 and communists
five.
