Leopoldville, Congo-The Congo
les Government has said that il
Belgian firms which closed down
during violence here last month
were not reopened within eight days
they would be considered abandon
ed property" and taken over by
the state.
The Congolese announcement Of
Aug. 2 came as United Nations
Secretary General Dag Hammar-
skiold continued talks here aimed
at bringing about the full with
drawal of Belgian troops and at
restoring order to the Congo's
shattered economy.
The Congo Government said
after a Cabinet meeting that il
planned to take measures to see
that the Belgian firms were re-
opened and gave the Belgian own
ers eight days to decide whether
to go back into business or sacri-
flee their firms to the state.
A communique issue following
the Cabinet meeting said: There is
no longer any danger to life and
property now that the United Ma
tions forces are here"

Meanwhile, tn Belgian Govern
ment was expected to reach a deci-
sion on whether or not to recognize
the breakaway Congolese Province
of Katanga as an independent state.
Cabinet ministers were called to-
gether Aug. 2 to discuss the Ka-
tanga problem as Congolese lead
ers increased pressure on the
United Nations to move troops into
the mineral-rich province and re-
store it to the central government.
The Cabinet meeting came fol-
lowing lightning flight to Paris
Aug. 1 by Belgian Foreign Minis
ire Pierre Wigny for talks with
French Foreign Minister Maurice
Couve de Murville. Paris sources
said M. Couve de Murville promised
that France would support Belgium
in it's action over the former Bel
gian colony.
M. Wigny said before flying back
to Brussels from the French CAPT.
tai that he considered the future
of Katanga an integral Congolese
problem. He said Belgian troops
were in Katanga solely to ensure
security.
(The Associated Press quoted
Premier Noise Tshombe of Ka-
tanga as declaring that his govern
ment has rejected any kind of poll
teal association with foreign coun-
+ tries.
(Mr. Tshombe has seceeded his
rich province from the new Congo
republic, but no other government
has recognized his move, which is
bitterly opposed by the central Con-
go government in Leopoldville. In
rejecting foreign ties, Mr.. Tshombe
said:
(I am thinking especially in
this regard about influences work
ing for union with Rhodesia. We
resist this with all our energy"
(He was referring to a plan put
forward by African nationalists in
Katanga and neighboring northern
Rhodesia that the two territories

diamond presented to Queen Eliza
beth on the occasion of her mar
riage.
About $4,000 people are engaged
in mining in Tanganyika, 5000 Of
them being employed by William
son Diamonds, Ltd, and by the
Geita Kiabakari, and other gold
mines. There remains, however, a
small but growing body of men
who are self-employed miners,
selling mainly through coopera-
tives. 1t is these independent
prospectors whom the government
currently is encouraging.
Prospecting Continues
In the Chunya area Of the
Southern Highlands, where large
strikes Of gold were made in the
1920's and several fortunes were
made and lost, So "diggers" are
still panning for gold in small
quantities and delivering their bag
of gold to the dealer for spot cash.
Copper and lead are produced
from Mpanda Mine in the West
ern Province, and copper also has
been discovered in the Fare Noun
tains, where an African, Kaiser
Mweta, is attempting to exploit
an interesting deposit. Lead, iron,
coal, pyrochlore, and tin are pres
ent elsewhere in Tanganyika.
Uranium minerals also can be
found.
Individual African interest is
mainly centered in mining for
mica, tin, and gold, and no ex-
pensive plant is necessary and the
financial return is good.

them African, are engaged in min
ing mica from the rock.
Only Knife Needed
Mica lends itself we'll to small
workings, for it does not require
expensive plant to process it. In
deed, a sharp knife is all that is
needed. 1t can be mined by pit
ting from the surface, but in the
mountains, where its is mostly
found, it is won from tunnels
(known asadits) dug into the hill
sides. A prospector has only to
open up tunnel and look for the
mica.

The Tanganyikan Government

grade mica, but also of diamonds
already being mined = and of
gold, copper, lead, iron, coal, pyro-
chlore, and tin, which are known
to be present in the country's geo.

ing minerals also have been found.
Other than diamonds, which are
being exploited, and coal and iron,
which are not yet being developed,
no large-scale mineral deposits to
compare with the copper of North

THE study by FDA's divi-

Some correlation was found

in the bacterial count.

During the war he co-ordi-

Mr.. Truman suggested that
