MOB STORMS EMBASSY - Demonstrators surged up the
steps and crowed the entrance of the Belgian Embassy in Moscow
during yesterday's protest against the slaying of former premier
Patrice Lumumba in the Congo. The mob broke the glass doors
and windows of the building before the police intervened.

Ask Congo Inquiry
UNITED NATIONS (A) - The
United States put its support
quickly behind Dag Hammarsk-
jold yesterday in the face of a
Soviet decision to stop recogniz-
ing him as United Nations secre-
tary-general.
A group of nations, mostly
Asian-African, was working on
proposals not as drastic as that
of the Soviet Union, but calling
for an investigation to pinpoint
blame for the death of Patrice
Lumumba and two associates in
the Congo. These killings sparked
Moscow's decision to withdraw
recognition of Hammarskjold.'
"The United States supports the
secretary-general and I am happy
to reaffirm that position here,"
Adlai E Stevenson, chief United
States delegate at the UN said
yesterday.
Stevenson earlier talked with
Hammarskjold.
He said, he hopes the Soviet
Union will "see the light" and
recognize that the UN is impor-
tant not only to smaller nations
but to Moscow as well.
He commented that apparent-
ly irreconcilable positions can be
quickly modified by events.
Many UN diplomats believe
that the new Soviet position will
paralyze the Security Council,
since the Soviet delegate can veto
any Congo proposal in which
Hammarskjold has a role. This
gave rise to speculation that the
General Assembly might be called
into emergency session before it
resumes as scheduled March 7.
Dillon Says
Senate Must
Ratify Pact
WASHINGTON (MP) - Secretary
of the Treasury Douglas Dillon
testified yesterday "it would be'
a lethal blow" to economic co-
operation between this country
and Western Europe if the Sen-
ate refuses to ratify a 20-nation+
agreement he helped write.
Both Dillon and George Ball,'
under secretary of state for eco-
nomic affairs, said the body set
up in Paris Dec. 14 under the pact
--the Organization for Economic
Cooperation and Development-
can't begin to operate without
the United States as a member.
The two took note of growing
opposition from some United
States trade groups which appar-
ently fear foreign competition.
They assured the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee that OECD
would in no way infringe on Unit-
ed States domestic law or the
tariff-making powers of Congress.
The OECD convention was
drawn up with Dillon's help when
he held in the Eisenhower admin-
istration the same job Ball now
holds. The pact is between the
United States and Canada and 18
Western European nations. Its
aim is to help solve mutual eco-
nomic problems.
The pact was submitted to Con-
gress Jan. 17 by then-President
Dwight D. Eisenhower. President
John F. Kennedy urged in his
State of the Union message that
Congress quickly ratify it.
The chairman during yester-
day's hearing, Sen. J. William
Fulbright (D-Ark) said 30 to 40
communications had been receiv-
ed opposing the convention and
only one or two supporting it.
