Many of Indonesia's 2,500,000 resident Chinese fear that the anti-Communism that began with the failure of last October's Red coup will end in a Chinese bloodbath. Chinese merchants' shops are regularly looted, many Chinese schools have been closed, and last week the government banned all Chinese-language newspapers. Although few of the late Partai Komunis Indonesia's members were Chinese, many Indonesians harbor resentment against the overseas Chinese who dominate the nation's commerce. Peking itself has protested against anti-Chinese demonstrations in North Sumatra, where "right-wing hooligans armed...

"I neither deny nor confirm the report that we are married," said Curtis, adding darkly: "Nobody will be able to come up with...
...people of leftist leanings who just happens to handle sensitive hardware. He is a noble, rugged, beer-drinking type who had fought against Hitler and Franco, and his consort is a very nice schoolteacher married to someone else. The jilted husband sets Security on the coup!e. It is a setup calculated to have the bleachers cheering as the pro-Communist pair outwit the villainous security men. The proletarian hero investigates the investigators and exposes his three persecutors as 1) the husband of a convicted shoplifter and father of a reefer-drag ging beatnik son, 2) a collector of fancy...
