NO COMPROMISE Sukarno declared Indonesia would not compromise in its fight po- with Holland over Dutch New Guinea, If Holland remained ‘head-strong,, Indonesia would take over all remaining Dutch capital, including that of mixed enterprises Indonesia was ruled by Holland until it became independent. Meanwhile Sukarno’s army- backed government has started to deal with the republic’s grave economic problems, the series of revolts in the outer islands and the political turmoil which has given the country 186 cabinets since’ 1945. The major army fear is that Indénesian Communists, who claim 8,000.00 members, may gain ground through miass discon- ent. Communists have been kept out of Sukarno’s eabinet, top dip- lomatic posts and key govern- ment jebs at the insistence of the

SANTIAGO, Chile (AP)—Chile protested Monday night over the unauthorized landing of a Cuban military plane here and manded that it leave the country. | Military men and reporters who arrived in the plane were de- tained by Chilean authorities. The plane carried an advance party for the visit of Maj. Raul Castro, brother of Cuban premier Fidel Castro, ‘to the conference of American foréign ministers ip Santiago. . Raul Castre was supposed to arrive Monday by air but appar- ently decided instead to spend the night in Lima, Peru. The four-engined Cuban trans- port was placedunder guard when it arrived here with 41 Cu- ban military men and newspaper men. One Chilean air force officer said that technically the landing of the Cuban plane here could be interpreted under Chilean law as ) | an invasion.
TOLD TO ADHERE The order for the plane to leave Chile came after President Jorge Allesandri told the Chilean foreign ministry to adhere strictly to the country’s laws on the entry of foreign aircraft. Thése prohibit the landing in Chile of foreign military planes carrying armed personnel with- out prior permission. In the impounded plane were 21 newspaper men, 18 bearded Cuban soldiers and seven crew members. In the Castro revolutionary re- gime all military personnel ha-

Egg Shipment Is 40 Million
HALIFAX (OP)—About 40,000,- 00 fresh Nova Scotia . eggs, enough to serve every resident in the four Atlantic provinces with an omelet a day for the best part of a month, will be shipped to Venemela this week.
S. C. Prescott, an Atlantic prov- inces economic -council director said Monday it’s the largest sin- gle shipment of eggs ever sent from the Atlantic provinces.
The 11,000 cases were sold by Annapolis Valley producers to the federal agriculture department.
Up until now most - packers were buying fresh eggs for export to Venewiela from the heavy ur- pluses in Ontario.
In diverting this large order to Nova Scotia the APEC director said the’ egg industry ‘is able to take abbig load off the local mar- ket and save it from becoming depressed.”
The shipment will be loaded on the Caribbean-Hamburg freigoter San Antonio due in Port Wil- liams, ‘N.S, within the next 24
