Ready ytoFight
Tshombe Will FLY
To Rally Forces
BY ADRIAN PORTER
Associated Press Sta6 Writer

ELISABETHVILLE the
Congo, Aug. 29.-The threat of
fighting along the Katanga
border grew today. Congolese
forces loyal to Premier Patrice
Lumumba were reported within
20 miles of the rich secession
ist province.
Katanga's Rebel Premier
Noise Tshombe rushed to the
northern frontier and prepared
to fly to the front himself to
rally his men against any in
vaSion.
My troops want to see me
and I want to see them to show
them I am still in charge in
Katanga," declared Mr.
Tshombe, who has proclaimed
his province independent of Mr.
Lumumba's central government
Advancing on Border
Mr. Tshombe's military COM
manders said their forces had
blown up rail bridges and mined
the few roads leading south
from Kasai Province into Ka-
tanga.
A Katanga Army spokesman
said Congolese troops were in
Luputa, an agricultural center
about 20 miles from the from
tier, but said patrols were
probably probing border de-
fenSes.
The Congolese were part of
a force Mr.. Lumumba flew into
KaSai Province last week. They
landed at Luluabourg, capital
of Kasai, and some moved east
to capture Bakwanga, capital
of the so-called Mineral
State" whose local tribal lead
er, Albert Kalonji, has lined up
with Mr.. Tshombe and wants
to unite his territory with Ka-
tanga.
Will Stay With Troops
Others of Mr.. Lumumba S
troops repeatedly swung south
to Luputa. and the Katanga
Army spokesman said there
was another force in Mwene
Ditu. He said their movement
would signal the start of an
invasion. But it was believed
the units in Luputa and Mwene
Ditu numbered only several
hundred men in all.

mated at l,l00 men. The re-

tough action would restore

Others feared it set an un-

With the United States

omitting specific mention of

to Castro's friendship for the

There, the Senate could either
