The Katanga Air Force is
still very much in the fight
against the United Nations, ac-
cording to three pilots who
passed through here today to
carry out missions against the
U. N. forces. They said Katanga
has six planes that are oper-
ational.
! A captain TX" from Canada
told reporters the U. N. claim
to have eliminated the Katanga
Air Force as a fighting unit is
nonsense. He said a U. N. air
attack on Kolwezi Air Base a
few days ago destroyed four
planes including a DC4, but
Katanga's favorite plane-the
Fouga Magister jet. whic h
played a big part in the Septem-
Der fighting-is still in service
at an airstrip somewhere in
Katanga "and we plan to use
it."
( The pilots claimed 10 U. S.
built Comanche light planes
are to be delivered to the Ka-
tanga Air Force in the next few
days.

scatter a mass assembly Of Ka-

Radio Station Restored
A Swedish Jet last night

Tor several hours, practically
cutting Elisabethville off from

rockets and with cannon shells.
Two engineers in the building

station was made to cut off a

This formula would fall
short of demands by industrial
unionists, who favor final and
binding arbitration Of disputes
that cannot be settled volun-
tarily. But the Hayes commit
tee conceives Of the umpire as
almost an arbitrator. since the
executive council would be ex-

Industrial unionists origi-

indicated their willingness to

They also may object be-

LONDON. Sunday. Dec. 10

Russia's internal radio channels
caused speculation here today
about a possible new Soviet
space venture.
The alteration of radio chan

previous occasions such an

Herni Spaak urged acting U. N.
Secretary General U Thant to-
day to make public the alleged
Kantangan attack plan which
the U. N. says justified its cur
rent action in Katanga. Mr..
Spaak called the u. action
"a war operation"
Mr.. Spaak was answering
Mr.. Thant's reply to two cables
Mr.. Spaak sent yesterday. In
those he asked Mr.. Thant to
define the jurdicial principles
on which the U. N. action was
based and charged the U.N.
with failing to protect the civil
ian population in Katanga.
Mr.. Thant rejected Mr..
Spaak's claims and charged the
big Union Miniere mining COM
papy in Elisabethville with
making bombs and armored
cars for the Katangese troops.
The company denied this to-
day and Mr.. Spaak said in his
