USSR: On the basis of weather conditions in re-
cent months, it appears unlikely that the USSR will
repeat last year's record wheat harvest.
From September to March precipitation in most
of the principal regions producing spring wheat--
usually 55 to 60 percent of total wheat production--was
normal or subnormal. Soviet publications have dis-
cussed at length the need to apply moisture-conserv-
ing techniques. The soil condition as of mid-April
was comparable to that of 1965, a poor year for spring
wheat. Good rains during the spring and summer
would improve the outlook for the harvest, however.
Prospects for winter wheat continue to be rela-
tively favorable, although not as good as last year's.
Precipitation over the past six months, while below the
1966 levels, was well above normal in most of the
major winter wheat regions.

Indonesia - Communist China: Sino-Indonesian
relations have deteriorated sharply, but a break in
diplomatic ties is not likely.
Yesterday, Indonesia expelled the Chinese Commu-
nist charge and the consul general in Djakarta. Indo-
nesia explained that the Chinese Embassy had organized
an unauthorized demonstration in Djakarta on 20 April.
The demonstration was staged to protest the death of a
Chinese undergoing police interrogation. Within hours,
China retaliated by ordering the Indonesian charge and
counselor from Peking.
The Djakarta incident followed a series of Chinese
demonstrations in East Java protesting anti- Chinese eco-
nomic restrictions imposed by local authorities. At
least one Chinese is reported to have been killed in in-
cidents there.
Indonesian officials have told US Embassy officers
that their government has ample evidence to justify a
break in relations with Peking, but feels that a rupture
would only create new problems. Sino-Indonesian re-
lations have been unfriendly since the army's reaction
to the abortive coup of October 1965 brought a reversal
of Indonesia's pro- Peking policy. A year ago repeated
Indonesian demonstrations against Chinese diplomatic
and consular establishments resulted in the closing of
three Chinese consulates and a sharp reduction of dip-
lomatic representation.
