CeIebes Island
Revolt Erupts in
Fiery Disorder
Thousands of Homes
Burn; No Tie to Coup
In Sumotru Is Seen

JAKARTA, Indonesia, Dec. 90
R.-Word of an uprising on
Celebes Island was received here
today. Celebes is at the oppo-
site end of the Indonesian is
land republic from Sumatra
where rebellious army factions
already are defying Jakarta's
rule.
Unlike the bloodleSs coup on
Sumatra. informed sources said
the Celebes incident was a vio-
lent demonstration that left
thousands of homes burned to
the ground.
Details were sketchy, but there
was no indication the Celebes
rebels had tried to seize power.
or that the uprising was con-
nected with the Sumatra crisis
that already has Jared the gov
eminent of Premier Ii Sastroa-
midjojo. Through the eight
years of Indonesia's independ-
ence there have been isolated
rebellions staged by fanatic re-
ligious groups wanting to set up
separate states and other groups
opposed to the Jakarta govern
ment.
Fires Set in 10 Villages
Informants said the Celebes
rebels-members of Defend
ers of Justice" movement that
tried in 1850 to set up an inde-
pendent Celebes state-struck
Thursday at Kabeana in South
Celebes.
The informantS said 3.7l3I
buildings in Kabeana, including
81 schools. were burned and that
fires were set in 10 neighboring
villages.
There was no report of any
deaths.
The Celebes islanders, mostly
Christians, long have pressed for
more local automony-one of the
of the army officers
who have seized the government
machinery in north and central
Sumatra. Most of Indonesia is

Bolivian Workers Ignore
Presidents Hunger Strike

LA PAz. Bolivia, Dec. 90 (P).
President Herman Siles Zuazo
today continued hunger strike
with which he hopes to persuade
the nations workers not to
block his United States-backed
economic sterilization program.
He met with no immediate sue
cess.
Siles ate his last meal at noon
yesterday. But today, tin miners
at Llallagua in Western Bolivia
still remained away from their
jobs. Strike leaders have con-
tended wage increases are in
sufficient to meet higher prices.
The President told reporters
in his Office last night he did
not want to use force to halt
the walkout or to head off a
threatened railway strike. The
latter would prevent delivery of
supplies to Bolivia's hungry
cities.
The Central Workers Union,
headed by Juan Lechin, former
minister Of mines, and the Of
fetal National Revolutionary
Party have both urged Siles to
abandon his fast.
The country has been plagued
by food shortages in recent
months, and the United States
has been rushing rations into the
landlocked nation via Chilean
ports. The supplies are being
distributed by rail and truck.
The sterilization plan to curb
spiraling imitation was adopted
recently at the recommendation
of United States experts. The
International Monetary Fund
also supports it. Siles said that
it is meeting with resistance on
the part of some leaders, ref

Chou CurtaiIs
Visit 10 India
Believed Preparing
For Moscow Trip

NEW DELHI, India, Dec. 2s
IR.-Indian officials announced
today that Communist Chinese
Premier Chou En-lai will cut
short his return visit to India.
No reason was given for the
sudden change of plans, which
involves postponement of a
scheduled trip to Nepal. In
formed sources believe Chou has
been called back to Peiping, Red
China's capital, for urgent con-
situations to prepare him for his
visit to Moscow starting about
January z.
Chou came here late last
month for talks with Prime Min
lister Nehru and an extended tour
of India. Later he conferred
with Burma's leaders on a Chi
nese-Burmese border dispute. He
will return here tomorrow after
a visit to Pakistan.
An Indian government spokes-
man said Chou will leave New
Delhi for Peiping on New Years
Day. Chou and Mr.. Nehru were
to have spent the holiday and
most of the next day touring
Northern India.
Chou is expected in Afghan
istan January 10 to resume his
Asian tour.
Mr.. Nehru was reported to
have discussed with his cabinet
today his talks with Chou. The
Prime Minister also gave his
ministers a report on his recent
trip to North America and
Western Europe. On his return
last night Mr.. Nehru received
the same type Of hero's well
come he had received after his
tour Of Russia 10 months ago
and his tour Of Europe last sum-
mer.
An official spokesman said Mr.
Nehru reviewed his talks with
President Eisenhower, Canadian
Prime Minister Louis st. Laurent
British Prime Minister Eden,
and West German Chancellor
Konrad Adenauer. The spokes-
man said he could give no de-
tails of the cabinet session.

Another Fire Flores Up
On Coast, But Is Halted

MALIBU, Calf, Dec. 30 (P1.-
just as a change in winds gave
f1remen hope of control soon
over the third disastrous brush
fire to strike this area since
Wednesday. another broke out
today down the coast at Palos
VerdeS Estates.
The new fire. however. was
controlled in a few hours after
burning about 200 acres. The
scene is approximately rs miles
via highway. but is actually di-
rectly across Santa Monica Bay
from the fires that have plagued
this area.
Authorities we're not discount
ing the possibility of arson. An
officer. who declined use of his
name. said: There's nothing
definite about it being incendi-
airy. A Car containing two men
was seen in the area just before
the fire broke out"
Like the earlier ones, the Palos
Verdes blaze also was in a sec
ton dotted with expensive
homes. Singer Dorothy Kristen
and concert violinist Joseph
Szigeti we're among those living
in the immediate area.
Hope to Control Others
Fire fighters still were hoping
for control soon over the third
fire in the Santa Monica Noun
tains.
State officials and firemen of
two companies-Los Angeles and
'Ventura-made this tally of
fires rampage in the brush-cov-
cred mountains:
Destroyed-65 homes.
Burned brush and timber
81 900 acres.
The fire situation in brief:
One fire whipped through
Lake Sherwood yesterday, burn
ing half dozen homes in a mat
ter of minutes, sending wildlife
swimming for their lives in the
lake. and scorching the area s
fire station.
Another sudden blaze which
f1ared up near Malibu Thursday
night, burning homes few hun
dred yards from the Pacific
Coast highway. and twice forcing
deputies to start evacuating the
sheriff's substation.

ing a return to school segrega-
ton in the District, said today he
did not expect this to be done
officially but it might be done
otherwise.
He predicted, at his home in
Stone Mountain, Ga, that q con-
tinued exodus of white families
from the District would &C.
complish segregation by leaving
the schools there exclusively to
Negroes.
Doesn't Expect Action
The only official means of re-
segregating the schools, he said
would be by action of the Dis
trict school board or by congress
sional enactment.
At for the first alternative, he
said he knows the makeup OF
the board and does not expect il
to take any such action. He saw
no prospects either of a con-
greSsional enactment.
There are not enough men,
bers who would vote for it," he
said.
Walter N. Tobriner, who led in
drafting present indignation pol
icieS, said allowing choice OF
schools on the basis of race
would be indefensible under the
Supreme Court anti-segregation
decree.
Several others said liberal

 Select scent that suits your own personality. It is we'll to re- member, though, that light spicy or floral odor is less likely to be- come tiresome than the heavier ones. Save the more exotic frag- rances for evening wear.

Adloi Stevenson Won't Use Crisis
AS Issue in Election Campaign

With what must have been
herculean self-controI, Adlai
Stevenson has given President
Eisenhower a breathing space
for renewed efforts to solve the
Suez Canal crisis.
The carefully worded state
ment of the Democratic nomi-
nee for President did suggest a
performance yardstick, to wit:
We all hope that our allies
will find us resolute, reliable
and fair-minded as we have
found them when matters of
great Importance to us were
at stake"
He bit down hard on the
words ''resolute, reliable and
fair-minded." 1t is hardly a
secret that he thinks recent
United States foreign policy
has been anything but that.
The temptation to explore
all that is involved at Suez is
enormous for a politician en-
trusted by his party with the
task of leading its restoration
to power. Suez does far more
than signal the bankruptcy Of
the administration courtship
Of Egyptian Prime Minister
Nasser. 1t rams home the fact
Of Soviet penetration of the
Middle East and Africa since
