Indonesia 'Truce End Foreseen By JOHN CANTWELL SINGAPORE (AP) --Diplo- mats in Singapore predicted to. dicted Tuesday that Indonesia's new military regime will gradu. ally call off President Sukarno's three-year-old undeclared war against. Maiaysia. Diplomatic sources said they jexpect Indonesian armed. raidy jagainst Malaysia will end but ithe propaganda ca mpaign against the federation of former |British territories probably will continue for some time. 'Lt.-Gen. Suharto's new re. gime realizes it must improve Indonesia's economy if it is to 3 void widespread opposition jfrom the people, one diplomat jsaid, and one of the quickest ways of ae this would be to pen trade with $i d Malaysia. ~-- President Sukarno's 'confron- tation" with Malaysia disrupted his country's shipment of tin and rubber through Singapore and Malaysia, the main source jof Indonesian foreign exchange. LED TO TROUBLE One of the main reasons for the student demonstrations that led to the downfall of Sukarno and his aides Subandrio and Chaerul Saleh was said to be vat economic chaos in the coun- ry. Until they were fired by the army last week, Subandrio wag first deputy premier and for. elgn minister and Saleh wag third deputy premier, Both were regarded as pro-Peking. The. diplomats' predictions of a softer line against Malaysia also were based on a statement Monday by the new foreign minister, Adam Malik, that Ine donesia's foreign policy under the previous government was undignified. The diplomats said peace feel- ers were sent to Malaysia early \this year when anti-Communist armed forces led by Gen. Abdul Haris Nasution were in charge |of the country, Sukarno fired ag jdefence minister in February |but Suharto's regime is exe | pected to give him a prominent jpost in the new government. |Meanwhile, Radio Jakarta said merchants in Indonesia jwere completing with Suharto's jorder to lower prices on some | goods, | The official radio said Su- |harto also ordered government jaid for thousands of flood vic- jtims in central Java lan | BAN DARTS PLAYERS NETTLESTONEF, Isle of Wight (CP)--A darts team has been banned from its home, the Roadside Inn, because the pub- lican says the seven players don't drink enough beer.
