Indonesia unrest prompts army action and curfew
Kuala Lumpur reports say President Sukarno ordered efforts to restore order in Indonesia after the abortive coup. Indonesian army troops were ordered to act against armed Communist rebels in Sumatra, with a dusk to dawn curfew in northern Sumatra and bans on mass demonstrations in Medan. Sukarno instructed public relations minister Roslan Abdulghani to continue efforts to calm the nation, while observers view this as support for the army’s anti Communist drive. The broadcasts note mass arrests of Communists and damage to Communist headquarters amid anti Communist protests.
