An atomic tanker is attrac-

do. They make long-distance,
sustained runs with bulk car

not used for fuel means just
that much more profit in the

tanker would use no cargo

confirmed. was over the BAHIA
mas.
It is not known who might
be flying the aircraft. At this
early stage, it would be more
likely to be Czech than Cuban
pilots because Mr.. Castro has
twice purged the top layers of
his air force and few Cubans
now know how to handle jets.

United States authorities are
undecided as to the real reason
for Mr.. CaStro's military build
up, which includes creation of
a peoples militia now estimated
to total $4,000 to 100000
half dozen times the manpower
of Mr.. Castro's regular army.
One theory is that Castro
may strike at one Of his Latin
American neighbors. Seven I'M
successful expeditions were
launched from Cuba last year.
Another theory is that he has
been caught up in his own
propaganda to the point where
he really fears uprising within
Cuba and attack from without.

IOct. % (AP)-Some neutral
land western countries were re-
ported today trying to draw UP
Ia compromise resolution on
disarmament and head OF a
Soviet walkout from the cur.
rent United Nations debate on
THAT subject.
Diplomatic sources said India,
1.-THE United Arab Republic,
Yugoslavia. Mexico, Venezuela
land Sweden were seeking to
draft the resolution and might
hand it in toward the end Of
next week.
| They. said one idea under
discussion was to propose that
the General Assembly's politi-
lcal committee. where the
debate is taking place, set up q
working group to formulate q
Iset Of principles for diSarma-
ment and report back next
month.
That would postpone a show
down vote on rival Soviet and
Western resolutions now pend
ing before the 99-nation COM
mittee. It would also delay such
a decision till after the United
States presidential election No
vember 8, in which Soviet Pre-
mier Khrushchev'S American
opponent in any future summit

Resolutions In Conflict

United States would have the
General Assembly recon-
mend that disarmament start

capable Of early implementa-
ton under effective interna-
tional control"
A resolution introduced by
the Soviet Union, on the other
hand. would have the assembly
instruct negotiators to go right
to work on a treaty for gen.
eral and complete disarma-
ment.
In addition, there is a Brit
iSh resolution to have technical
experts study disarmament in
spection problems and another
Soviet resolution to expand the

ment committee by adding five

Indonesiia Ends
Re|ationsW With
Netherlands

JAKARTA, Indonesia, Aug.
II AP).-President Sukarno
today broke diplomatic rela-
tions with the Netherlands be-
cause the Dutch sent an air.
craft carrier to disputed West
New Guinea.
Observers generally believed
that the break, which had been
expected for some time, would
be followed up by seizure of
such Jointly owned interests as
the Shell oil holdings and
UnileVer's vast plantations.
Both are owned by British and
Dutch stockholders.
Mr.. Sukarno departed from
the prepared text of his speech
marking Indonesia's 11th in
dependence day anniversary to
announce the diplomatic break.
In such a situation" he
said. there is no longer any
need for diplomatic relations
with the Netherlands"
Liberation Demanded
Earlier Mr.. Sukarno served |
notice his government plans to
wreSt control of West New
Guinea from the Dutch, de-
claring that the territory must !
be liberated in a revolutionary
manner"
Mr.. Sukarno charged that |
the Dutch had been stubborn
in sending the carrier Karel
Doorman to New Guinea.
"A country of small creditors
like the Netherlands, which has
actually fallen already, pre-
served a taste for colonialism
and is now trying to send its
bailiff called the Karel Door
man." he said.
Western New Guinea is the
only territory the Dutch re-
tanned in the Far East when
Indonesia was granted indie
pendence in 1949. The Indo-
neSianS have threatened re-
peatedly to take the territory
and seize all property owned
entirely by the Dutch in retail
iation, but the United Nations
so far has refused to support
Indonesia's claim. Australia
governs the eastern portion of
the big island.
Dutch Cited Threats"
The Dutch had said they sent
the carrier to New Guinea be-
cause of the Indonesian threats.
But they denied any aggression
against Indonesia was contem-
plated.
A complete break has been
approaching since 1856 when
Indonesia abrogated her treat
les with the Dutch. The two
countries then withdrew their
high commissioners, who had
been serving in the Hague and
Jakarta since Indonesia at
tanned sovereign status in l948.
The two nations diplomatic
missions to each other since
have been headed by charges
d'affaires.
Mr.. Sukarno also told the
thousands of listeners that his
government will abolish all
foreign rights and colonial"
land holdings in the near fu-
ture.
