D. JAPAN: YESTERDAY'S JAPANESE ELECTION DID NOT CHANGE
THE GENERAL BALANCE BETWEEN CONSERVATIVES AND SOCIALISTS IN

THE SOCIALISTS GAINED A FEW SEATS,
BUT FELL SHORT OF THEIR GOAL OF BREAKING THE "ONE-THIRD
BARRIER."
E. INDONESIA-US: INDONESIAN OFFICIALS ARE LETTING IT
BE KNOWN INDIRECTLY, VIA THE OIL COMPANY REPRESENTATIVES,
THAT SUkARNO MAY WELL HOLD UP SIGNATURE OF THE LAW RATIFYING
OIL CONTRACTS WITH THE BIG THREE UNTIL THE US POSITION ON AID
TO INDONESIA IS "CLARIFIED." US AID THEY SAY WAS PROMISED
BY WILSON WYATT AS PART OF A "PACKAGE DEAL" FOR SETTLING WITH
THE OIL COMPANIES.
