Capture Vital Mining City,
Bunche Goes
To Meetings
About Congo
UNITED NATIONS (R) - The
United Nations announced yester-
day that Undersecretary Ralph J.
Bunche is going to The Congo im-
mediately to confer on UN Congo
operations.
The decision came soon after
UN forces captured Jadotville, a
key center in secessionist Katanga.
Bunche was scheduled to !eave
New York last night for Leopold-
ville.
Another Visit
A spokesman said Secretary-
General U Thant had asked
Bunche "to make another short
visit to The Congo for the purpose
of consultations ... on a number
of matters, political, military and
administrative, affecting the oper-
ation in its present and future ac-
tivities."
Bunche, an American Nobel
Peace Prize winner, will talk with
Robert K. A. Gardiner of Ghana,
officer-in-charge of The Congo
operation, and Lt. Gen. Kebbede
Gebre of Ethiopia, commander of
the UN force.
The UN spokesman said that
when the UN force occupied Jadot-
ville yesterday morning. "there was
little or no fighting in the city
and very little damage from acts
of sabotage."
Omits Details
That statement-giving no de-
tails of damage-seemed to con-
flict with an earlier Brussels report
from Union Miniere, the Katanga
Mining Company, that all its
plants in the Jadotville area were
paralyzed.
"The UN commanding officer,"
the spokesman said, "has held am-
icable talks with the mayor of the
city and with representatives cf
the Union Miniere with a view to
maintaining normal activities in
the city and to protecting instal-
lations."
Katanga President Moise Tshom-
be, the spokesman said, has many
times threatened these installa-
tions with destruction "in pursu-
ance with his alleged 'scorched-
earth' policy."
The spokesn'an credited the UN
force with completing "a brilliant-
ly executed action along the Elis-
abethville-Jadotville road."
Jadotville Loss
Harms Rebels
WASHINGTON (MP)-State De-
partment officials said yesterday
that Moise Tshombe, secessionist
leader of Katanga province in the
Congo, suffered a severely damag-
ing blow in the loss of the mining
and industrial center of Jadotville.
Some officials said, in fact, that
it is quite possible Tshombe is fin-
ished as a powerful leader fight-
ing against Congo unification.
But at the State Department it
was said the door is still open for
him to lead Katanga into unity
with the central government pro-
vided he is willing to do so. One
reason for this, officials conceded,
is that they do not know of any
figure capable of replacing Tshom-
be as an effective authority to lead
the province anywhere.
With the fall of Jadotville, the
United Nations now has control
of two-thirds to three-quarters of
the productive facilities of the
Union Miniere Haut-Katanga, of-
ficials said.
HELICOPTER LOSSES:
Whi~te House Seeks,
Facts on Viet Nam
WASHINGTON MA)-The White House has ordered a full report'
on United States helicopter losses in South Viet Nam, it was learned
yesterday.
The demand went to the Defense Deparmtent after officials were
jolted by news dispatches Wednesday saying at least eight Army-flown
helicopters had been brought down by Communist guerrilla ground
Death Takes
Kerr, Ending
Senate career
By MICHAEL HARRAH
City Editor
The United States Senate has
lost its Wagon Master on the
trails of the New Frontier.
At 66 years of age, Sen. Robert
S. Kerr (D- Okla), who 'actually
trod the fabled path from birth in
a log cabin to become a multi-mil-
lionaire, is dead.
Often considered the most in-
fluential man in the Senate, Kerr
had been hospitalized for several
weeks for what was described as a
virus ailment. He died on New
Year's Day, after suffering a heart
attack.
His passing quite likely will
shake the foundations of the Capi-
tol. Neither conservative or liberal,
Kerr's influence would have
changed the fate of many bills
scheduled to concern the 88th
Congress this year.
Without his help, the President
will find very tough sledding for
his proposed tax cut, which will
surely, encounter stiff opposition
from, the forces of Sen. Harry F.
Byrd (D-Va), but the Administra-
tion's medicare proposal, on the
other hand, is virtually assured of
Senate passage without Kerr's op-
position.
The Kerr funeral promises to be
one of the biggest in the nation's
political history. Thousands of
people streamed through the capi-
tol in Oklahoma City, where Kerr's
body lay in state yesterday. Lit-
erally thousands are expected to
participate in the final tribute.
Much of Kerr's view of the leg-
islative world was based on wheth-
er it was good for Oklahoma. "I'm
against any combine Oklahoma
ain't in," he would say.
He was greatly interested in
plans for developing fully the
water, power, navigation and rec-
reation resources of the Arkansas

fire while ferrying South Vietnam-
ese soldiers. into battle. Five- of
the helicopters were said to have
been destroyed.
Official cables reaching the
Pentagon with details yesterday
scaled down losses to five heli-
copters downed, with apparently
only one of them destroyed. Three
Americans were listed as killed in
the action.
Guerrillas Slip Away
Meanwhile, from Viet Nam there
were reports that Communist
guerrillas were slipping away yess
terday ahead of pursuit from Viet-
namese still stunned by the bloody
ambush that brought down the
helicopters.
Operation planners, including
United States military advisers,
feared the Viet Cong guerrillas
would make good their escape de-
spite what officers considered to
be a good chance to crush the
Reds. The advisers conceded the
operation against the Reds had
beenbotched from the very start
of shooting Wednesday.
The Vietnamese were hit with
the deadliest blow yet in Viet
Nam's four-year-old fight against
guerrillas from the Communist
north.bThe attack was launched
by about 600 well - entrenched
guerrillas.
11 Aircraft Hit
One officer said this was "no
more than a day's work," although
the five craft dropped by machine-
gun and small arms fire repre-
sented one-third of the 15 helicop-
ters involved. All told, official re-
ports said, 11 of the aircraft were
hit by ground fire.
In Washington, some authori-
ties were disturbed that official
field reports were slow in reaching
the Pentagon.
The Army was understood to be
preparing a "fact sheet" for Pres-
ident John F. Kennedy, recapping
the record of its helicopter opera-
tions in South Viet Nam so far.
Army officials said the helicop-
ter losses have been extremely
light, considering the larger num-
ber of missions flown and the
number of South Vietnamese sol-
diers carried on strikes against
the Reds in many parts of the
country.

Carry Out Threat
To Cripple Katanga
LEOPOLDVILLE (A) - United
Nations forces advancing toward
President Moise Tshombe's head-
quarters in North Katanga cap-
tured the important mining cen-
ter of Jadotville in Katanga yes-
terday, the UN said.
But retreating Katangans blew
up the city's vital mining equip-
ment, halting production in that
greatest copper and cobalt center
in the secessionist province.
Outnumbered and outgunned,
Tshombe's forces apparently start-
ed carrying out the president's
threat to destroy Katanga's eco-
nomic wealth-vitally needed for
the full success of a unified Congo.
Tshombe Makes Threats
Union Miniere, the giant Bel-
gian-based mineral company oper-
ating in Katanga, said Tshombe's
gendarmes destroyed m i n i ng
equipment in Jadotville a n d
knocked out the town's electrical
power. It said Tshombe threaten-
ed to destroy other Union Miniere
installations if the UN troops ad-
vanced further.
The UN troops, made up of In-
dians, Ethiopians and Irishmen,
were only about 80 miles from Kol-
wezi, Tshombe's headquarters and
the base for his air force.
Reports from news correspond-
ents in Elisabethville said that de-
spite UN control of the city many
bridges and power lines had been
blown up. The .city was without
electricity. Food and gasoline sup-
plies were running low.
De Gaulle
Examines
U.S. Bid
PARIS () - French President
Charles de Gaulle has told Presi-
dent John F. Kennedy he is study-
ing the United States offer of Po-
laris missiles, informed sources
said yesterday.
But de Gaulle again made it
clear at a cabinet session that
France will still build its own nu-
clear striking force.
The statement of de Gaulle's
position and disclosure of his mes-
sage to Kennedy emerged after a
long cabinet session, which exam-
ined the United States offer to
make the mobile Polaris missile
available to France.
French sources disclosed that de
Gaulle's interim reply to Kennedy
Wednesday laid down in firm, pre-
cise terms the fundamentals of
French defense policy:
These sources stressed that de
Gaulle's message neither accepted
nor rejected Kennedy's proposals
-the same made to Britain and
accepted by British Prime Minis-
ter Harold Macmillan.
French Information Minister
Alain Peyrefitte outlined his gov-
ernment's position to newsmen
after the cabinet session.
Peyrefitte said the United States
offer is not pertinent to France at
this time because France possesses
neither the submarines to launch
a Polaris missile nor the nuclear
warheads for such a weapon.
