UNITED INDONESIAN WORKERS ORGANIZATION TO BE FORMED -- Djakarta, Merdeka,
2 May 60
The Indonesian government's intention to establish a single mass
workers organization was indicated in a remark by Minister of Labor Ahem
Erningpradja, carried by the 2 May 1960 issue of the Djakarta Merdeka
to the effect that the government will shortly announce certain decisions
concerning the formation of a united organization of Indonesian workers.
He said that political parties had greatly influenced the development
of Indonesian worker organizations, which, in turn, reflected the dif-
ferences between the parties. He asset~ted that the Indonesian worker
should have one philosophy and one objective of struggle.
Other indicators in this consolidation trend by the government have
been the unification into one group of all veterans organizations and the
call by President Sukarno for all youth organizations to unite. The
government has already taken steps to simplify the political party system,
and there are indications that the government also intends to simplify
the 'system of functional groups, such as the workers, veterans, and youth,
all of which are to constitute the new National Front, to be represented
In the new Parliament.

QUANTUM STUDIES ADAPTED TO MAOIST IDEOLOGY Peiping, Pei-thing Jih-pao,
24 May 60, p 2
Basing itself on Marxism-Leninism and Mao Tse-tung ideology, the
faculty of the Pei-thing University has revised the textbooks on quantum
studies to enable the students to understand and apply the quantum
theories, which are considered the most difficult subject in physics.
The faculty was able to achieve this by rejecting the "logic" that a
new equation must be deduced from an established equation.
