JAVA 5EETHING WITH UNREST AS
 CRISIS DEVELOPS
Demands for SeIf-Govern- mentMade- Only Way to
 Bring Peace to Land
By RALPH MORTON Associated Press Correspondentl

BATAVIA, Java, Oct. 17-Poli- tical unrest seethed throughout Java today as the Indonesian Ma tional Council awaited a reply from the Allied command in The Netherlands East Indies to a set of four major Nationalist demands which Council Vice President Hatton said represented "the only way to bring peace to this troubled land"
 1n Amsterdam, Dr. H. A. Longe- mann, Minister of Overseas Terri tory, said the government was ready to offer Indonesia self-gov- ernment within the Dutch Com monwealth and would deal with Indonesian leaders who merit consideration, but not with Soe- karno, president of the "Indonesiap Republic
 The National Council met yester- day in a bid to present itself as a national government. Soekarno was not present. He was touring western Java to restrain sections of his followers bent on violence. In his absence Hatton promised the 187 council delegates that there would be a national election within six months and that in the interim Soekarno and his cabinet would be assisted by working committee Of the council in representing the people
 The four-point program submitted to It. Gen. A. F. Christison, Allied commander in The Netherlands East Indies, called for removal of all Japanese, deportation of all Dutch troops and prevention of the arrival of additional Dutch soldiers, quiescent role for The Nether- | lands Indies Civil Administration, the recognition by an impartial United Nations committee of the Indonesian National Council as the de facto government of the coun- try.
 This correspondent asked Hatton if he expected ito beat the Dutch by force when you have no guns, tanks or planes" and he replied
 "We shall win through peaceful means. That is why President Soe- karno is now touring Java to re- strain hot-head sections who use violent methods. But the Dutch aiming tommy guns at us does not help the situation. In fact, it pre- sages trouble. We stand on non- violence"

 HOPED OFF
Cancellation of Big Appro- pridtions Asked by
 Committee

WASHINGTON, Oct. l7--Cancel- lation of 2.453 ,535,278 in govern ment spending authorized for the current fiscal year was recommended today by the House Appropriations Committee.
 A direct result of the wars end, the legislation which the committee sent to the House for consideration tomorrow provides for:
 Cancellation of $48, ,264 Al ,439 in direct appropriations already made for the year ending next June 30.
 Wiping out s4,l87 .9o3,339 in con- tractural authority for the same period. If used, this would have required additional appropriations of that amount.
 Recovery of $1,190.500 in funds of corporations created by the Go. ordinator of Inter-American Affairs.
 While the committee made no re- ference in it's written report to the possible effect that huge savings would have on taxes, Chairman Cannon tD.-Mo) cautioned against any over-optimism on the part of taxpayers.
 This means that there will be just that much less deficit spending for the current year and the national debt will be slowed down a little," Cannon said in an interview. T sse no prospects for substantial tax re- ductions as result of this legisla- tion."
