By the Assoeioied Press

JOGJAKARTA, Java. June 90
A Tightening Dutch Indonesian
crisis threatened today to overthrow
the Indonesian republican govern
ment of Premier Sultan Sjahrir and
held the prospect of renewed mill
tary action in the Netherlands East
Indies.
The cabinet met for the second
day to decide on Dutch demands
for formation of an interim govern
ment to rule the Indies until the
United States of Indonesia becomes
independent on January l, 1949.
Announcement of the decision was
expected late today or tomorrow.
Opposition mounted steadily in
several Indonesian political parties
against any further concessions to
the Dutch, and Dutch sources took
cognizance of the possibility that
Premier Sjahrir might be ousted in
declaring that Dutch military action
almost certainly would follow such
action. since the Dutch regard Pre-
mier Sjahrir as the most respon-
sible and reasonable" of the Indo-
nesian leaders.
Sajar Kiri, a powerful combina-
ton of six left wing political groups,
went on record today against the
concessions already granted to the
Netherlands by the Sjahrir govern
ment and called for adjustment
and consolidation" of his cabinet.

Plan for Army, Navy
Approved by House
By the Associoted Press

The House late yesterday approved
bill providing for sweeping re-
vision of the Army and Navy pro-
motion systems on an up-or-ou
basis affecting the careers of 175,.
900 officers.
In all branches Of the armed
forces, best qualified officers woulc
move up under the bill. Unfit ones
would move out.
The measure-the first ever draft
ed in this field covering Army and
Navy personnel together-also pro-
yides for a sharp curtailment In
the number of peacetime generals
and admiralS.
Except for eight top flight officers
who now hold the rank, the war
time grade of flve-star generals and
admirals would be abolished.
The House passed the measure by
voice vote and sent it to the SEN
ate. The bill has the backing of
both the Army and the Navy.
The House Armed Services Com
mittee, declaring that the new sys-
tenn would promote morale and eff
cheney, said the bill offers:
"A program that will offer careers
satisfactory enough to attract capa-
BILE men. promising enough to hold
in service the capable men already
in uniform, and economical enough
to be acceptable from a budgetary
standpoint"
The bill would abolish the Army's
traditional system of promotion by
seniority in grades below colonel.
Under 1t. officers have advanced au-
tomatically to the next higher rank
after so many years service, regard
less of qualifications.
The new system calls for promo
