POCUNG KABUPATEN BANTAL                             79
August 1 - first day of a 5-day press tour conducted by the Department of Industry on the occasion of the anniversary of their ladies' organization
due to the large number of persons accompanying the tour (16 or so wives, 10 press people, 6-8 industry people, [[?]] officials etc.)
little opportunity for intensive questioning
I did, however, receive some general impressions, as follows:

*1. 1st stop at Kasongan - see separate notes below
MANDING
*2. Manding - leather village 11 kilometers south of Gogia on the [[?]] road; 25 or so enterprises making mainly ladies' handcargo
*3. Pocung - about 19 kilometers south of Gogia on the road to [[?]] - there left off the main road at [[?]] + take dirt access road another 2-3k (this access road very bad in rainy season)
