Dutch Offer Proposal
To Develop |ndonesia
As Partner in Kingdom
Native Leaders Reported
Opposed to Plan as
Busis for Settlement
By the Associated Press.


BATAVIA, Nov. 6.-The gov
ernment of the Netherlands In
dies, trying to restore order in
this land, cracked by struggle
for independence, made public
today a plan for rapid develop
ment of Indonesia as a partner
in a kingdom which will be con-
structed to guarantee the self
respect Of all member peoples. +"
H. j. van Nook, acting governor
general of the Indies, who released
the program, disclosed that it had
been presented more than week
ago to Indonesian Nationalist lead
ers as basis for settlement of their
demands. He expressed his hope for
a speedy return of order to Java SO
that a peace conference might be
convened to discuss all aspects of
his proposals.
Tension Increasing.
His statement was issued in an
atmosphere of growing tension, en-
phasiZed by new outbreak of street
fighting in Batavia between Indo-
nesian extremist and Dutch troops.
Indonesian leaders were reported
to have urged DR.. van Nook not to
release the document, fearing that
his proposals-which are far short
of their demands-would only in
crease the gulf between their people
and the Dutch.
In essence, DR.. van Mook's state
ment was reiteration of previous
Dutch offers to grant the Indo-
nesians self-government and inde-
pendence within the limits of a
Dutch commonwealth, but it was
reinforced by assurances of racial
equality and full partnership with
the Netherlands.
Room will be made for the de-
velopment of business of every size
for all racial groups, and the par
ticipation of Indonesians, Indo-
Chinese and Indo-Arabs in big
business will be furthered," the
statement declared.
Arms Must Be Restored.
"The central government Of this
country will have to be reconstructed
by legal process in such a way that
it will consist of a democratic repre-
sentative body with a substantial
ajority of Indonesian members and
and council of ministers under a
governor general as the representa-
tive of the crown" DR.. van Nook
said.
He asserted, however, that in the
interests of restoring order it was
necessary that all arms which have
been passed over legally by the
Japanese or which have been stolen
must be restored to the Allies and
the carrying of arms must be re-
stricted to peoples legally entitled
or licensed to do So"
'It is doubly necessary to re-
store order to enable us to proceed
with the nomination of representa-
tives by a general consultation that
is free of threats and intimidation, -
DR.. Van Nook added.
He promised to bring to justice
all those who knowingly and ac-
lively harmed their co-citizens and
their country by collaboration with
the japanese.
Fighting in Batavia.
A worsening situation at the
Soerabaja naval base in Eastern
Java was acknowledged by British
headquarters as Indonesian extrem-
lists and Dutch troops continued q
desultory exchange Of rifle and ma
| chine gun fire in the streets d

Marines Withdrawal

TIENTSIN, Nov. 6.-The United
States Marines will be withdrawn

ably by December S, it was re-
ported unoff1cially here today.
Known facts seem to support the
report. for the Marines virAally
have completed their mission in
North Climate restore order and
help disarm the japanese.
There are isolated groups of jap
anese who have not been disarmed
but Generalissimo Chang Kai-
shek's Nationalist troops, who are
beginning to arrive in North China
in large numbers should have the
situation in hand BY that time.
(Chinese Communists today re-
newed in a considerably moder-
ated tone their charges that
American Marines had clashed
with the Yenan Red forces in
North China, according to dis
patch from Chungking. The
Communist reports were fatty
denied yesterday, both in Wash
ington and Chungking.
"a Yenan spokesman today
admitted that the incidents he
reported might have been pro-
voked," but asserted, Our re-
ports were based on facts and
not fabricated"
! CT don't believe" he contin-
ued, "the American attacks were
| part of a deliberate plan, but
since the Americans are in the
middle of the general govern
ment and the Communist troops
it is quite possible the. incidents

Strong public opinion in thu
