JANUARY 4, 1963 THE MICHIGAN DAILY 10A/"MI JANAR 4 183TU M~1VlA.1 1IALLI PAGE THREE 9 Advancing UN Soldiers) 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 See KERR, Page 8 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. Vanquished Units Wreck Equipment 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.
