CongoL Leaders
Agree 10 Talk
Over Future
Kotungu Dispute
Appears on Way
Toward Solution

LEOPOLDVILLE, The Congo
Nov. 26 (AP). One of the
most troublesome feuds of the
feud-ridden Congo-the seces-
sion of mineral-rich Katanga
Province-may be on the way
to a solution.
| A dramatic announcement
from Elisabethville in Katanga
last night said three leading
ministers from the central gov
ernment in Leopoldville had
reached an agreement with
Noise Tshombe, President OF
the breakaway province.
A communique said a two
hour meeting was held in a
cordial atmosphere and resulted
in a perfect identity of views
on a program of action in the
internal affairs of the former
Belgian Congo"
AS a result, said one of the
Katanga participants in the
meeting, a formidable confer
ence on the future political
structure of the Congo prob
ably will be held in Elisabeth
willie next month.
Katanga Rich in Minerals
Mr.. Tshombe set up Katanga
as an independent stare with
his capital at Elisabethville II
days after the Congo got its
independence from Belgium on
June 80. He took the action,
he said, because Patrice Lu-
mumba, then the Congo Pre-
mier, was using disruptive
Communist tactics to create
disorder throughout the new
country.
Katanga, with its riches of
uranium, copper and other ma
terials. is the economic back
bone of the Congo and is the
center of operations of a giant
Belgian mining combine.
One of Mr.. Tshombe's quar-
rels with Mr.. Lumumba was
the Katanga leaders inSistence
upon a form of decentralized
federal government which he
said would he suited to the
Congo's localized tribal struc-
ture. Mr.. Lumumba favored a
strong central government.
Congo President Joseph Kasa-
vubu has sided with Mr..
Tshombe regarding a decen-
tralized federal government
structure.
Triumph for KaSavubu
For Mr.. Kasavubu, fresh from
a victory at the United Nations.
where his delegation won Off
cial recognition over a rival
Lumumba delegation, the
agreement of the Tshombe le-
gime to work with the Leopold
vile government represented a
second important triumph.
Mr.. Kasavubu is under pres
sure from the Asians and At
ricanS contributing to the U. N.
Congo force to accept a U. N.
Cancellation commission seek
ing an agreement among all
Congo elements-including Mr..
Lumumba. At least seven of the
IS commission members favor
Mr.. bumumba.

President Eisenhower today
bluntly rejected a protest by
the President of the Republic
of Guinea that the United
States has supported "the posi-
ton of the enemies of African
emancipation" in the Congo.
Mr.. Eisenhower told Presi-
dent Sekou Toure of Guinea in
a cablegram that the United
States has been in the fore
front of those nations which
have favored emancipation Of
all peoples, including Africans.
Mr.. Toure's protest was
dated November 20.
Mr.. Toure said he was con-
cerned "at the development of
a partisan position by the
United States in the situation
in the Congo"
He asked that the United
States cease supporting the
position of the enemies of
African emancipation, who are
employing every possible means
against the legitimate govern
ment of the Congo to attack
the unity and territorial in
tegrity of the Congolese ma
ton"
misunderstanding Seen
Mr.. Eisenhower's reply, dated
yesterday and made public to-
day by the White House, said
Mr.. Toure's cable of November
20 reflects a serious misun-
derstanding of the United
States Government in support
Of African freedom"
The republic of Guinea has
lined up with Soviet Russia in
support of former Premier Pa
VI lSC AuIIl uIllUd.
The United States has been
supporting President Joseph
Kasavubu, whose delegation re-
Gently was seated by the United
Nations.
In his protest to Mr.. Eisen-
hover, Mr.. Toure said the Re-
public of Guinea would refuse
to take any part in the activi-
ties of the U. N. Cancellation
commission IF the United
States maintains its present
position"
Mr.. Kasavubu has agreed to
receive the Cancellation commits
sion in the near future. 1t will
seek to bring together leaders
who are in conflict in the
Congoelse republic.
U. S. Record Cited
Mr.. Eisenhower said this
country's record over many
years in support of African
emancipation is open for all to
see. He added:
With specific reference to
the Republic of the Congo, the
United States warmly well
coined its independence. We
have recognized and upheld its
unity and territorial integrity
through Unietd States actions.
Although considerable par
tisanship has been demon
strated by some states, our
support for the recognition by
the United Nations of M. Ka-
savubu as chief of state. a con-
stitutional provision which is
universally accepted and rec
ognized in the recent report of
the U. NJ, is not a question of
partiSanship but an attempt to
strengthen one of the essential
foundations of stable and eff
fective government in that un-
happy country.
This. I believe, is in strict
conformity with the interests
of the Congolese government
and people. AS you are aware,
a large number of African
states have taken a similar
stand. In view of the support
by most countries for the
United Nations role in the
Congo and the fact that the
United Nations success is vital
for the welfare of the Congo
lese, I sincerely hope that you
will give full support to the
United Nations effort there"

NEW YORK tR = Gold and the
United States law about it seem
sure to be high up on the topics
for debate when the new admins
tration takes over in about five
weeks.
The question: Should we keep
a gold backing for our dollars
even when you can't get gold for
your dollars?
Changes in the present law are
being urged every week or SO.
Some want it eased consider
ably, so that gold reserve would
no longer be required as legal
backing for our currency.
Others want the law frightened
so that foreigners-or Americans
operating from abroad-couldn't
drain gold out of the treasury's
stock as easily as now
And a hard core of gold-stand-
ard men want the law junked al
together and would have us go
back to the days when every dol
lar was backed by gold, and free
ly exchangeable.
Gold always has been one of
the most controversial subjects in
American politics. 1t could be-
come so once again.
The law passed in 1884 as a de-
preston measure set the price of
gold at $35 an ounce, devaluing
the dollar in the process, and
made it illegal for American citi-
zens to buy or own it save as
jewelry, household articles, anti
que coins, or for industrial pur-
poses. 1t allows other nations and
their central banks to turn in any
spare dollars they may have
and they have lot right now
The Nome nugget., 1960-12-16
Changes Urged SO Gold Reserve No
Longer Required as Currency Backing

for gold at the rate of $35 an
ounce.
The most recent attack on the
law has come on the rule that a
gold reserve must be held equal
to 25 per cent of the bank notes
and deposits that are counted as
American currency.
This reserve is about $12 bill
lion of the current total gold hold
ings of about $18 billion. This
leaves free about Sc billion to
meet foreign obligations, and these
now total close to $40 billion.
If all foreigners decided at once
that they wanted gold instead of
dollars or U. S. securities, the
treasury would have to suspend
gold payments. Such run is held
most improbable.
A leading American banker and
the head of the international
Monetary Fund have urged doing
away with this gold reserve rule
as outdated and as a drag on U. S.
international financial dealings.
Henry C. Alexander, chairman
of Morgan Guaranty Trust of
New York, holds that since U. S.
citizens can't turn in their paper
money for gold, the reserve is of
questionable value to them, even
psychologically, and that all our
gold should be held merely for
the settlement of international
transactions. He argues that sound
money isn't really based on gold
reserves but on prudent manage
ment of federal finances and on
efficient production of American
industry and trade.
Opponents of any tinkering with
the 25 per cent legal gold reserve
argue that it would undermine
world confidence in the dollar,
would only encourage inflationary
financial policies in Washington,
and might make Americans them
selves wonder about the value of
their paper money.
