Freedom for Africans In Southwest Territory UN Troops Continue Elisabethville Attack U.S. Opposes Congo Cease Fire; Urges Attainment of Objectives ELISABETHVILLE (A) - UN aerial bombs and rockets blasted a big hotel in this battered capital yesterday in a possible prelude to a big push by the United Nations' still growing ground forces. Katanga also rushed up reinforcements. Considering Katanga gendarmerie occupation of the Lido hotel made it a military objective, four UN Swedish SAAB jets teamed FREEDOM RIDE' TRIAL: Demonstrators Jailed In Segregation Protest ALBANY, Ga. (A')-More than 200 Negroes were arrested last night as they marched and sang in downtown Albany, protesting the arrest of nearly 350 other Negroes. Estimates of the number arrested ranged from 205 to 285. No official figure was available immediately.

In a rare show of unanimity, the two joined in submitting a resolution on the subject. This followed their agreement that the old 10-nation East-West committee that held fruitless dis- armament talks in Geneva in 1960 should be enlarged to 18 members by the addition of 8 countries classified -as neutrals. The new members will be Bur- ma, India, the United Arab Re- public, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Brazil, Mexico and Sweden. The old mem- bers are Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Poland, Romania and the Soviet Union on'the Communist side and Britain, Canada, France, Italy and the United States on the Western side.

Silent March The latest of the demonstrations came shortly after 6 p.m. follow- ing a brief silent march by an estimated 250 Negroes who were not arested. Police Chief Laurie Pritchett warned that any further demon- strations would result in more ar- rests as the total number jailed swelled to nearly 400. Charges in- cluded unlawful assembly and pa- rading without a permit, The chief said the second dem- onstration was allowed under a permit issued by officials. Mass Meeting The third demonstration began after Negroes held a mass meet- ing at a church and then march- ed downtown where they were herded into an alleyway beside city hall. They were then taken into the building and booked. Yesterday's demonstrations be- gan with a kneeling-singing pro- test in front of the city hall dur- ing which 81 were arrested. The leader of yesterday's first demonstration, Slater King, told Chief Laurie Pritchett "we will never disperse until you've freed every one of our people. Mayor Asa Kelley warned the kneeling demonstrators that many white persons from other nearby counties were coming to Albany intent on violence. He pleaded for the group to disperse, saying, "I am doing this to protect your lives." A decision in the first freedom rider case was withheld until completion of all the trials. Per Laursen of New York was the first of the original 11 to be tried. Senate Considers Cuban Refugees WASHINGTON ()-The gov- ernment is considering setting up a second Cuban refugee center to ease the burden on the Miami area but Congress would have to provide adequate funds, a Senate hearing was told yesterday. The man who runs the federal Cuban refugee program, William L. Mitchell, commissioner of so- cial security, mentioned two loca- tions-"preferably" New Orleans and "possibly" New York. Mitchell said also it depends on how much money Congress pro- vides whether the government can pay more than the present 50 per cent of the cost of educating Cub- an refugees in Dade County, Fla. t Sheraton Hotels .

Sheraton Corporationl Group Votes To Terminate SA Control Afro-Asians, Cubans Support Proclamation UNITED NATIONS (A')-A UN committee voted overwhelmingly yesterday to set free the vast ter- ritory of South West Africa from rule by South Africa and give its half million tribesmen their own government. The 103-nation trusteeship com- mittee voted under powerful Afri- can-Asia pressure to proclaim the right of South West Africa's peo- ple to independence and national sovereignty, and defining steps to bring it about. It adopted 86-1 a resolution sponsored by 37 countries-23 Af- rican, 12 Asian, plus Cuba and Yugoslavia-to call on South Af- rica to work with it in accom- plishing -the aims. Sits Silently South Africa, already condemn- ed by the UN for its apartheid pol- icies at home, sat silently during a month of debate, refusing to comment on the resolutions be- fore the committee. Sponsors of the measure predicted the South Africans would reject the plan as it has rejected UN efforts for eight years to get South Africa to put the territory under UN trus- teeship. The territory has been admin- istered by South Africa under League of Nations mandate. South African forces seized the vast area from imperial Germany early in the First World War. Explains Silence South Africa explained its sil- ence during debate with the argu- ment that Liberia and Ethiopia have asked the World Court to rule on its right to continue its mandate over the territory. With the case before the court, South Africa said, any comment or ac- tion is out of order. The South Africans refused to participate in the committee vot- ing.'. Achkar Marof of Guinea, a fre- quent spokesman for the African group in the UN, told the commit- tee, "We shall not be thwarted in our goal of making our brothers free." Definite Move It was the most definite move in UN history of trying to force South Africa out of its 40-year mandate administration of the 320,000 square miles of bush land peopled by Hottentots, Bantus, Hereros and other tribes. Fewer than 50,000 inhabitants are white. The proposed steps-certain to be ratifiednbythe Assembly-are for a seven-nation special com- mittee appointed by Assembly President Mongi Slim of Tunisia to penetrate South West Africa before next May 1, with South Af- rica's approval, and successfully arrange: Release Prisoners Evacuation of all South African military forces; release of all poli- tical prisoners regardless of party or race; repeal of all racist laws confining blacks to reserves and curbing their activity by apartheid racial segregation policies; a leg- islative assembly election under UN supervision; and setting up a native government to get welfare aid from UN agencies. Jonathan B. Bingham, United States delegate, called the resolu- tion unrealistic but voted for it. up for an attack. Part of the roo Lido, one of Elisabethville's best,4 were shot-up and blackened. De-f bris toppled into the hotel's swim- ming pool and shrapnel fragments pocked its waters. Meanwhile in Washington, of- ficials drew a grim picture of the Congo plunged into civil war and perhaps taken over by the Com- munists should Premier Cyrille Adoula fail to crush the seces- sionist move of Katanga province. And in a stand at direct variance with that of Great Britain, the State Department opposed an im- mediate cease-fire in the Congo. It said a cease-fire can be ne- gotiated if and when the "mini- mum objectives" of the United Nations have been attained. Ask Cease-Fire Britain yesterday formally urged the UN's Acting Secretary-Gen- eral, U Thant, to obtain a cease- fire in the mineral-rich Katanga province of Moise Tshombe. Brit- ain said peace should be restored and efforts renewed to effect a settlement through negotiation. In other proceedings U Thant announced that the United Na- tions had withdrawn its request to Britain for 24 half-ton aerial1 bombs for use by the UN force in the Congo. In a letter to Sir Patrick Dean, Britain's permanent UN repre- sentative, U Thant said that since making the request "I have learn- ed that considerable anxiety has been expressed in the United King- dom at the present time about the provision of these bombs. "In those circumstances I have decided to withdraw the request which the United Nations have made for the provision of these bombs." Britain already had announced she was withholding delivery of the bombs until satisfied about UN objectives in the secessionist province of Katanga. The United States, authorities said, is an anxious as anyone else to have a cease-fire in Katanga. But they said a cease-fire now-as the British are seeking-would be premature. Cuban Exiles Cite Uprisings MEXICO CITY (P) - A Cuban exile group said here yesterday scattered uprisings have broken out in Cuba. The group said the uprisings started Tuesday and are prelimi- nary to a full-scale invasion. There was no immediate con- firmation from Cuban or other of- ficial sources. The Cuban Revolutionary Party in Exile, led by former Cuban President Carlos Prio Socarras, said invasion will come "as soon as the internal groups have estab- lished a stronghold." The organization declined to say how many fighters were tak- ing part in the reported outbreaks or to say where they have occur- red.3 Jose M. Santana, president of the group in Mexico, told a news conference the outbreaks were part of a "master plan" for an invasion. He said the Cuban Revolution-j ary Council, a dominant anti- Castro exile organization, "knows of the invasion plan and does not oppose it. They will join us after we have actually landed forces in Cuba." The Cuban Revolutionary Coun- cil took part in the abortive in- vasion attempt of Cuba last April. f and second-story rooms of the World News IRoundup By The Associated Press DAMASCUS - Dr. Moumoun Kuzbari, first provisional premier after an army coup broke Syria away from the United Arab Re- public two and one half months ago, was named speaker of the new parliament Tuesday..

Rusk Works To Remove NATO Fears PARIS )-Secretary of State Dean Rusk campaigned yesterday to erase fears that negotiations with the Russians on Berlin might lead to disastrous Western con- cessions. But he failed to remove French reservations to the East-West talks. Speaking at the opening of a three-day NATO ministerial con- ference, Rusk told America's 14 allies that the United States never would barter away the war-won right of Western troops to garri- son Berlin, weaken free access to the isolated city or permit damage to its political and economic free- dom, conference sources said. The Western powers must ex- haust every chance of a peaceful solution to avoid a possible world holocaust, Rusk told ministers of the alliance. Conference sources said French Foreign Minister Maurice Couve de Murville reiterated that further diplomatic contacts with the Rus- sians on Berlin in the immediate future might trap the West into an accidental backward step. But other conference ministers, including West Germany, were re- ported lining up with Rusk, leav- ing France more and more in an isolated position, informed sources said. In another allied meeting in Paris, Mayor Willy Brandt of West Berlin warned against any "foul compromise" over Berlin. Ball Expects Lower Tariffs WASHINGTON OP)-State De- partment officials expressed hope yesterday that agreements will be reached soon with the Euro- pean Common Market on tariff cuts by both sides. They said Undersecretary George W. Ball expects negotiations un- derway in Paris to be successfully completed by the end of this year. The Common Market has offer- ed a 20 per cent tariff reduction on most industrial products, the officials reported. The United States in turn has offered reduc- tions on many goods ranging up to 20 per cent. Its offer was de- scribed as more limited because no more is possible under the 1958 United States trade law now on the books. President John F. Kennedy has served notice that he will ask ex- panded tariff-reducing powers from Congress next year. Agricultural goods, a major United States export to Europe, are a big stumbling block in the United States-Common Market talks. The Common Market coun- tries have yet to form a unified agriculturalprogram internally and say they cannot include a firm tariff commitment on farm items now. United States authorities said the United States prefers to nail down a tariff agreement with the Common Market at this time even if the specific future duty rates on Common Market farm imports cannot be specified now.
