Rebels Take Over Stanleyville;
Fear Remaining Hostages Lost

By The Associated Press;
LEOPOLDVILLE - R e p o r t s}
reaching here yesterday indicated'
that the rebels have gained vir-
tually complete control of Stan-
leyville.
Hope for rescuing an estimated,
500-1000 whites in rebel territory
elsewhere grew dim. Maj. Michael
Hoare', commander of the Congo
white mercenary force, told re-
porters:
"We must face facts. I don't
think we will find many of them
alive."
Refugees report the 'rebels are
on a rampage to kill any whites
they can find.,
Meanwhile, sharp fighting broke
out around the Stanleyville air-
port where a Belgian plane crash-
ed Sunday night amid heavy rebel
sniper fire, killing 7 of 15 per-
sons on board.
Unclear
It was not clear whether the
Belgian plane, chartered to trans-
port refugees, was hit by rebel,
fire or had mechanical difficul-
ties during takebff. It crashed into
jungle at the end of the runway,
closing the airport to all incom-
ing flights.
Rebel snipers have been shoot-
Ing at planes in Stanleyville ever
since government and Belgian
forces moved into the former rebel
capital.
The Congolese troops remained
after the pullout of the Belgians
over the weekend.
United States Air Force planes
dropped Belgian paratroopers on

Stanleyville last Tuesday. The ,
troops and planes were pulled outi
Sunday.
Farther to the north, about 200
Congolese army troops led by 30
white mercenaries captured the'
town of Bunia where several hun-
dred white hostages were believed
to have been held. The troops re-
ported, no sign of the hostages
and diplomats in Leopoldville ex-
pressed belief that they had been
taken to Watsa, north of Bunia.
Diplomats had reported earlier,

the Belgians had scheduled a jump
on Bunia but called it off because
of reports that the whites had
been moved out.
Meanwhile, Premier M o 1s e
Tshombe flew to Paris for talks
with President Charles de Gaulle.
Tshombe told Paris reporters his
government had the situation in
hand and that the rebellion led by
Christophe Gbenye would soon be
ended.
Tshombe left Leopoldville with
plans to continue on from Paris

to New York to attend the United
Nations General Assembly session.
An aide said, however, that
Tshombe would return to Leo-
poldville tomorrow and go to the
United Nations at a later date. No
reason was given for the change
in'plans.
Rejecting criticism of the U.S.-
Belgian military operations by the
Congo Commissionofithe Organi-
zation of African Unity, Tshombe
said the Belgians and Americans
were "emergency troops whose ac-
tions were authorized by us for
humanitarian purposes."
Tshombe was asked if there was
evidence that the Chinese Com-
munists were supporting the reb-
els. He said only:

Scientists say they hope to
make the midcourse correction on
Mariner sometime this week by
tiggering a small rocket on board
the 575-pound craft which will
drive it closer to Mars. Still to be
decided are the precise time and
duration of firing the direction-,
changing rockets.
At noon yesterday Mariner 4
was 425,685 miles from earth, trav-
eling 7,315 miles an hour, a speed
that will slowly lessen as it coasts
through space toward a rendezvous
that could help explain such an-
cient mysteries as the "canals" on
Mars and solve the question of
whether life can exist on the des-
ert-dry planet.

world News Roundup
By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON-Secretary of Labor W. Willard Wirtz reported
yesterday that the railroad industry and three shop craft unions
remain deadlocked in a wage dispute that led to a strike threat last
week.
Wirtz said however no new strike date has been set since the
unions called off last Tuesday's scheduled walkout at his request.
Wirtz said the only issue in the present dispute is salaries, not
seniority or working conditions.
He said the railroads and the three unions are about 10 cents
apart on a proposed three-year contract.
