MoslemS Mediated on Repairs
The action of Saladin was
not the last time a MoSlem ruler
interviewed in sectarian quar-
rels for the good of this church
Easter pilgrims this year saw
massive pillars of wooden scat
folding on each side of the
Stone of Unction near the
church entrance-the first Sc
riouS repairs made on the old
church in century and a half,
/ If these repairs had not been
undertaken, the roof of the
church might have fallen.
Agreement to undertake the re-
pairs was reached primarily
through the mediation of the
Moslem Mayor of Jerusalem,
Able Rohi Khatib.
| This great Christian shrine
is in such a sad state that it
must be propped up by un-
slightly steel and wooden hol-
Sters put there in 1885 during
the British mandate. There
have been endless discussions
about rebuilding the church but
no agreement has been reached
among the sects and nothing
can be done unless they agree,
Each group Of the six which
have rights here are jealous of
their traditional position and
fearful they may lose some
thing in rebuilding.

Katanga Units
Battle FIeeiinq
Rebel Troops

ELISABETHVILLE, Katanga,
April l (AP) -Katanga army
units fought a pitched battle
today with fleeing rebel troops
on the banks of the Kaziba
River in the northern part of
this secessionist province. At
the same time United Nations
troops began moving to head
off civil war.
Reporting today's action, a
government spokesman said
Katanga air force planes had
destroyed the only ferry across
the river-the main outlet to-
ward Kivu Province.
Kivu, north of Katanga, is
under nominal control of the
rebel Stanleyville regime, and
the fleeing troops we're heading
there after being forced out
of the town of Manono by
Katanga troops Thursday.
GurkhaS on Display
The United Nations, mean
while, sent tough Gurkha
troops to Northern Katanga-
although not directly to the
battle area-in a show of
force.
President Noise Tshombe of
Katanga has long been opposed
to U. N. troops in his domain
because he says their presence
tends to favor leftist rebels.
Mr.. Tshombe's chief adviser
said the government of this
province is fully prepared"
but declined to elaborate.

prolific pest and soon a twig
