the Riff war during 1925-26, and is apprehensive that trou-

4. COMMENT ON INDONESIAN ELECTIONS
25X1A
Latest unofficial Indonesian election
returns show a further trend toward
a fairly even distribution of votes
among the four major parties. The
National Party continues to lead with
26 percent of the total vote and is fol-
lowed by the Masjumi with 23 percent,
the Nahdlatul Ulama with 22 percent and the Communist
Party with 21 percent. An estimated 4,000,000-7,000,000
votes cast last week are still uncounted.
Approximately 10 percent of the elec-
torate located in areas where dissidence is strong has yet
to vote, and the order for a re-election in Central Java af-
fects another 7 percent,
The Masjumi's improved position and
the Communists' drop into fourth place increase the possi-
bility of a coalition between the National Party and one or
both of the Moslem parties.
25X1
Prime Minister Harahap requested the
reassembled provisional parliament on 7 October to allow
his Masjumi-led cabinet to remain in office until the new
parliament is seated. Response to Harahap's plea may de-
pend on the Masjumi's relative gains or losses within the
next few days.
