THE FOREIGN SCENE

vile chief talked ominously of
cutting off the heads" of the
Europeans in the city. For some
1000 whites in Stanleyville and
another 1000 scattered through
out the Oriental Province. the
situation began to look grim. At
the U. N. headquarters in Leopold
vile the Salumu threat was taken
seriously.
Rajeshwar Dayal Of India, U. N.
chief in the Congo, sent team of
U. N. officials to Stanleyville. and
at the same time ordered 1900
Ethiopian troops serving in the
U. N. command to move swiftly
for the protection Of the threat
ened Europeans. Brig. Mengasha
1yaSsu, in command of the Ethi-
opians, was ordered to use what
ever force might be necessary to
prevent terrorism against the
whites.
The United Arab Republic. Cey-
lon. and Yugoslavia announced
last week that their contingents
assigned to the U. N. Emergency
Force would be withdrawn. All
three Of these nations have sup
ported the claims of Mr.. LII
mumba to be the sole legitimate
Premier Of the Congo, and have
charged that the U. N. serves
Western interests by sustaining
President Kasavubu and Col.
Mobutu.

Gotes Might Stoy

There is speculation that Mr..
Gates has been or will be asked
to stay on as Secretary for an
other year to help bridge the
transfer Of administrations in this
difficult and complex area. II
this is true he would doubtless
base his acceptance on an under
standing that there be no major
overhaul of Defense machinery
during his stewardship.
There being no apparent public
clamor for still another Pentagon
shuttle. even one in which fantas-
tic savings of SO billion a year are
suggested. where does the push for
the scrapping of the jos come
from? Apparently one major
source is the Air Force aircraft
industry combination.
According to the Chicago Sum
Times. recently published Air
Force manual advocates speedy
changes at the Pentagon in order
to obtain the greatest partisan
advantages.
Asserting that the "Air Force
now enjoys a maximum of infiu-
ence." the manual states that "if
the Air Force is to seek a single
service. it would be best to do so
while 1t retains its budgetary and
strategic preponderance."
Not all of the Symington groups
proposals require legislative ap-
proval. The Secretary of Defense
and the President could effect sew
eral, such as the formation of new
unified combat commands and the
reduction of score or more of
assistant secretaries.

There could be little surprise
that the Symington report, made
public last week. proposed q single
chief of staff and recommended
new steps down the road to a
single military service, including
the abolition Of the posts of Sec
retary OF the Army. Navy and Air
Force and the Joint Chiefs Of
STAFF.
Public reaction to the recon-
mendations has been something
less than enthuiastic, and the
rumblings from Capitol Hill, where
similar proposals have been re-
jected with regularity in the past,
hdicate that a stiff fight would
await any push by the Kennedy
administration to obtain imple-
menting legislation.
Mr.. Kennedy's personal reaction
was one OF surprising caution. He
characterized the report this way:
AN interesting and constructive
study which I know will be care
fully analyzed by the Congress and
the incoming administration"
Virtually every top civilian and
military leader at the Pentagon
today. including Mr.. Gates and
Gen. Lyman L. Lemnitzer. chair
man of the JCS, is on record as
advocating that the major De-
fense reorganization plan of 1858
be given full shakedown before
any new changes are undertaken.

In the Congo:
Emergency

The United Nations rushed
Ethiopian troops to Stanleyville
Friday when followers of inn
prisOned ex-Premier Patrice
Lumumba threatened to behead
Europeans in the provincial
capital.
When Col. Joseph Mobutu, the
Congo's military strong man, cap
tured and jailed the. fiery Lu-
mumba q week ago, he seemed to
feel confident that. having caught
the arsonist, there would be no
more fires.
But Mr.. Lumumba's seat o.
power has been Stanleyville, the
capital of Oriental Province, and
that city remained under the con-
troll Of Lumumba supporters. One
Bernard Salumu, a Lumumba
aide described as pro-Communist
by the Leopoldville authorities,
began to take drastic actions in
Stanleyville to force his chiefs
release.

New Commands

commanders would be under the
thumb Of the new single chief of
staff who. as the sole military ad-
visor to the Secretary of Defense
and the President. would be an

There is great deal that must

Mr.. Kennedy's word, in the Sym

Election:
Dying Hard

Republicans last week con.
tinued efforts to 0verturn Ken
nedy electoral votes, but their
chances darkened in the key
States of Illinois and Texas.
The final unofficial tally OF
ballots cast on November 8 shows
that President-elect Kennedy had
a popular vote margin over Vice
President Nixon of 1882 out of
more than 68.7 million.
With more than 100000 votes
counted for minor party candi-
dates, Mr.. Kennedy definitely will
be a minority" President.
But he leads in the all
important electoral vote count by
300 to 223 and, with the electoral
college due to do its own ballot
ing a week from tomorrow, there
is virtually no chance that he
will not be named President-elect.

work Of hybrid seed from the
United States and millions of dol

Much Of the seed and machinery
has undoubtedly been copied or
adapted by Soviet scientists and

What puzzles many Americans
is why Khrushchev decided to

Why Khrushchev has embarked
on this program may be found in
the Soviet Unions continual ef-
fort to spur Its people on to equal
or surpass the United States
eyerywhere-apparently even ct
the dinner table. Throughout the
Soviet Union are found signs
with the slogan, Reach and Sur

Butter" Apparently corn, and
its animal by-productS. have an
important p, Uganda as well as
nutritional value.
In addition, Khrushchev seems
to feel that Soviet Union with
q Western-style diet viii have
more influence with uncommitted
nations. Corn-and animal prod
ucts-in his opinion, have as
much propaganda value as H
bombs In swaying Asians and
Africans to communism.
AFTER all, the volume Of pro-
duction in the U. s. A. influences
the psychology Of the entire West
ern world" he said in 1857. "The
colonial countries simply tremble
and don't even dream that they
might equal America. But now.
the Soviet Union, the peoples Of
former backward Russia =. are
now in a position to equal the
United States level of per capita
production and even to surpass
that total.

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.-The
harried Assembly president lis
tened as two delegates tried to put
across conflicting views on a tick
lish point Of procedure. Then he

haired man seated next to him.
The big man leaned over quickly
and whispered a few words. The
president nodded. raped his gavel

For the last IS years. Andrew
wellington Cordier, hard-working
american trouble shooter for the
United Nations has been giving
advice to various Assembly presi-
dents caught in the maze of parli-
amentary rules that guide the
international body.
The. former history professor
from Indiana is familiar figure
on TV screens sitting on the AS
ssmbly presidents left while Sec
retary General Dag Hammar-
skiold sits on his right.
His Western twang has also be-
come familiar to thousands of
U. N. visitors who have heard him
read out the roll call on Assembly
votes.
But serving as adviser to Assem-
bly, presidents Is Just one of the
duties that keep the genial, So
year-old Westerner on the go
from IL to is hours a day.
HommorskjoId Assistont
Mr.. Cordier also carries the title
Of executive assistant to the secre-
tary general full-time job itself
under a dedicated leader like Mr..
Hammarskjold.
II you ask MFR. Cordier what his
job entails. he will reply somewhat
vaguely, Everything that interests
the s. @. interests me-"
That's about it.
As chief aide to Mr.. Hammar-
skiold, Mr.. Cordier is responsible
for the smooth running of the
U. N. administration with more
than $500 staff members.
AS U. N. undersecretary, he helps

the nightmarish problems that

During such crucial periods, Mr..
Cordier arrives at his desk early
In the morning and stays far into
the night, sometimes getting by
with q couple Of hours sleep on
a couch in the secretary-general's
38th floor suite.
In 1856, when the U. N. was
trying to juggle twin crises brought
on by the British French invasion
of Suez and the uprising in Hun
gary, Mr.. Cordier went IL nights
with only one trip home to subur-
ban Great Neck. Long Island.
When the Congo crisis exploded
last summer, Mr.. Cordier had the
herculean task of co-ordinating
the 18,000-man U. N. Congo COM
mand, supervising airlifts of troops
into the chaotic African state and
arranging for overfiights across
the borders Of infiamed neighbor
nations.
Split Second Decisions
Mr.. Cordier not only did the
job smoothly, he amazed CO.
workers by keeping most of the
myriad facts in his head and
making split second decisions
without having to refer to a docu-
ment or consult an aide.
MFR. Cordier speaks his mind
and this has on occasion brought
down the Ire Of foreign govern
inents.
He ran afoul of the Belgians
last October when he said in a
New York interview that Belgian
education programs In the Congo
had not prepared the nation
adequately for independence.
The Brussels government angrily
protested to Mr.. Hammarskjold
and indicated that disciplinary
action might be in order.
