Open file in Google DriveRead full text

De Waarheid, 31 Aug 1951, p. 3: near-verbatim PKI Central Committee statement on the Sukiman government's August 1951 mass arrests, calling them a drift to fascism and a staged 'coup' pretext. It lists Gerwis among organisations whose members were arrested or searched, demands release of all detainees and urges an anti-fascist front. Gerwis appears only in the list.

De Waarheid, 31 Agu 1951, hlm. 3: pernyataan Komite Sentral PKI nyaris utuh tentang penangkapan massal pemerintah Sukiman Agustus 1951, yang disebut kecenderungan ke fasisme dan dalih 'kudeta' rekayasa. Gerwis disebut di antara organisasi yang anggotanya ditangkap atau digeledah; menuntut pembebasan semua tahanan dan front anti-fasis. Gerwis hanya muncul dalam daftar.

“Arrests and house searches targeted members and leaders of the PKI, PSI, Murba ... SOBSI, Pemuda Rakjat, Gerwis, the World Peace Committee ... (p. 3).”
