KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON PAGE FIVE Indonesian Government In Economic Blast At Java JAKARTA, Indonesia HI In donesia's new rebel governmcn on Sumatra kept up an economii barrage at the central governmen on Java today with no indicatior so far of its effectiveness.

This followed an order from the "ebcls yesterday directing all for eign oil companies to halt ship ments to the central government and payment of royalties to the Jakarta treasury. There was no indication wheth er the oil companies or the banks would comply. j The Oil Companies The Ameri-j can Caltex and Stanvac and the1 Royal Dutch Shell operate most ly on Sumatra although their big gest installations are outside the central area controlled by the rebels. Their compliance would strike a body blow at Sukarno's regime, which receives millions annually in royalties and foreign exchange from them. Motor transport on populous Java also is dependent on Suma tran oil. Oilmen say the government-held sectors of Borneo could not begin to supply Java's needs. In the islands outside Java there still were important hold outs against the rebel regime. The military commander in South Sumatra, Lt. Col. Barlian, issued an order of the day declar ing he would not allow his terri tory to be used as a base for violent actions" by either the reb el or Jakarta governments. He called for settlement of the con flict peacefully. This was interpreted as a dec laration of neutrality. Barlian's territory includes the big oil re fineries at Palembang, Sumatra's largest city. The Indonesian national news agency Antara reported that the commander in the Moluccas, Lt. Col. Herman Pieters, had severed all postal and telegraph commu nications with Central Sumatra. The pro-Sukarno government in North Sumatra ordered all trade and communications with the cen tral area cut after the proclama' tion of the rebel regime.

Conant recommended today that the nation's high schools group their students by ability, wherever possible, so that they may proceed at a pace in keep ing with their talents. This, the former president of Harvard said, would apply to 15 or 20 per cent of the student body that is particularly gifted, as well as to the 10 to Id per cent who just aren't capable of keeping up with the rest. Dr. Conant, in a speech pre pared for the 42nd annual conven tion of the National Assn. of Sec ondary School Principals, said the slower students, who usually have trouble with reading and handling numbers, should be taken out of the required courses such as Eng lish, history, and general math- matics. They should, he 'said, be given a different type of instruction by teachers specially qualified for this work and anxious to under take it." Only in this way, Conant said, can the slow learner be .given any thing like a satisfactory educa tion. Dr. Conant outlined a proposed program of high school courses for grades 9 through 12. lie recommended four years of English and four years of history or related social studies as re quired courses. Two years of mathematics should also be re quired, he said, with the more able students going on to more advanced courses, and the weaker students taking general or com mercial arithmetic. Another proposed requirement was a general science course in the ninth grade, or biology in the ninth or tenth grade. WASHINGTON W-Senale Deir ocrats picked highways and hou ing today as likely to offer th speediest opportunities to pumi federal expenditures into tne lai tering economy. Sen. Uore (D-Tenni announces the Senate Public Works subcom mittee he heads will begin hear ings tomorrow on proposals to ac celerate the interstate nignway Drosram. Sen. Sparkman (U-Alai said in separate interview he is dratt- ing legislation aimed at making it easier for people with moderate incomes to buy houses in the $10,000 to $15,000 bracket. Sparkman s plans call for still further easing of down payment I requirements in that bracket, and I for other actions to make more housing credit available. The weekend brought disclo sures also that both the admin istration and Democratic House leaders are studying the possibil ity of tax cuts at some later date, and that the administration is working toward proposal of anoth er billion-dollar building program. The billion dollars, most of it from private sources, would go for construction of 150 to 170 fed eral buildings under a proposed revival of the lease-purchase plan. The government would take title after paying for their construction in rents over a period of years. The government already is pushing a 636-million-dollar pro gram involving 92 lease-purchase projects already approved. Last week President Eisenhow er proposed a two-billion-dollar postal modernization program. Within the government, the Treasury, the President s Council of Economic Advisers ana oiner agencies were reported studying "preparedness" plans for tax re ductions,, but without expecting any need to use them to bolster the economy. . House leaders are talking in terms of a tax slash of more than five billions, if they think the economy needs it. The total is expected to include roposals for income tax cuts in !e low and middle income brack- whole or partial elimination a program would neip me econo my, leave present tax rates un changed and still permit a bal anced budget.
