Mr.. Thant told President
Able Fulbert Youlou of the
Congo (Brazzaville) and Presi-
dent Philbert Tsiranna of the

But he said the United Ma

plus clear guarantees that it

Gore BACKING
u. n. onCongo
BY the Associated Press

Senator Gore, Democrat of
Tennessee, urged President
Kennedy last night to stand
firmly behind the United Ma
tionS in the Katanga situation.
Senator Gore, a member of
the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee, said in a statement
he is shocked and surprised"
by the action of a group of
citizens calling themselves the
American Committee for Aid to
Katanga Freedom Fighters in
asking contributions to finance
operations of Katangan troops
which have clashed with U. N.
military forces.
THE issues in the Congo are
complex" Senator Gore said.
Reports of events are often
confusing. Mistakes ave been
made in implementing U. N.
policy and directives.
But without U. N. interven-
ton. the Congo would long
since have been submerged by
a Communist takeover or
plunged into all-out civil war,
threatening involvment of op-
posing world powers and escal-
alton into global war. With
strong support by the United
States and the free world, the
United Nations can bring peace
and freedom to the Congo"
Meanwhile, the office of SEN
ator Thurmond. Democrat of
South Carolina, disclosed re-
ceipt of a reply to a telegram
which Senator Thurmond sent
to President Kennedy three
days ago, urging a reversal of
United States policy in support
of the U. N. operations. Sena-
tor Thurmond had urged Mr..
Kennedy to seek an immediate
cease fire.
Senator Thurmond's office
quoted the White House reply,
signed by Presidential Assistant
Lawrence F. O'Brien, as saying:
The President has asked me
to reply urgently to your wire.
We appreciate your concern
about the Congo situation. He
has asked me to assure you
that every effort of the govern
ment has and will continue to
be made to forestall any
further violence and effect a
conciliation of anti-Commu-
mist leaders in the Congo"

in Madrid to confer with Gen.
eralissmo Franco after NATO
meetings in Paris.
Spanish experts predicted
GeneraliSsimo Franco would
stick to generalities in his meet
ing with Mr.. Rusk and that any
serious talk about the "renova-
tion of the United States-Span-
ish base agreements General
issimo Franco requested last
october would await some later
date.
American observers said Mr..
Rusk's visit to Madrid was an
other move by the Washington
administration to remove fears
expressed by some highly
placed Spanish officials that
the Kennedy administration is
not as sympathetic toward
Spain as was the Eisenhower
administration.

18-nation advisory committee
on the Congo today to get its
views on a Wednesday cease
fire appeal from Britain-and
presumably the new ones from
the French African republics.
The committee was expected
to warn him not to order a
cease-fire in Katanga till the
United Nations had won. Most
Of its members are African and
Asian countries that have taken
the position that the United
Nations should keep fighting
till Mr.. Tshombe will merge
Katanga back into the Congo.
Meanwhile U. N. troops in
Katanga are waging a major
offensive against Katanga
troops.
Some informants here pre-
dicted the U. N. forces would
triumph over the week end and
could then pick up the mer-
cenaries.
Mr.. Thant set forth his stand
after the United States de-
clared, the question of a ces-
sation of hostilities is up to the
United Nations"
The State Departments state
ment dealt with a message
from Mr.. Tshombe to President
Kennedy Thursday and Mr..
Kennedy'S reply. Mr.. Tshombe
offered to negotiate with Congo
Premier Cyrille Adoula and ap-
pealed to Mr.. Kennedy to name
a negotiator to stop useless
bloodshed."
The President told Mr..
TShombe that the United States
is moving Immediately to ex-
plore the possibilities of con-
citation and a cessation of the
fighting. The State Department
said the United States hopes
that fighting can be suspended
once Mr.. Tshombe has demon
strated the seriousness of his
intentions to negotiate" by
leaving his capital Of Elisa

Careful Consideration
In explaining the American
decision to cooperate with
Great Britain and various in
ternational banking institu-
tions in the financing, high
United States officials said
that this decision had been
given more consideration than
any comparable decision of the
United States in recent years
They listed these factors de-
termining the outcome:
l. The Volta River project
an essential to Ghanaian de-
velopment, has become a SYM
Dol to African people of United
States willingness to aid their
advance to the modern world
2. The aim of the United
States aid is to develop Ghana' s
political and economic inde-
pendence. Investigation in
Ghana has shown a large reser-
voir of good will towards the
United States, and no desire to
be aligned with the Soviet bloc
If the United States abandons
this project, after initial COM
mitments have been made and
first work begun, these officials
argue that it would be regarded
as a sign that the United States
tries to use economic plums'
to enforce its political views on
recalcitrant African leaders.

authority on radiation said to-
day.
They hope to find that Ger
tain ch emicals will wash
away" radioactive substances
from the human body, said DR..
Donald P. Chadwick, chief of
the Public Health Services Di-
vision of Pathological Health,
in an interview.
One idea is to use the type
of chemicals that are effective
as antidotes against poison gas
and such common poiSonS as
arsenic.
These "chelating agents"
named after the claws, or
chelas. of Holsters and crabs,
tend to cling to certain chemi-
Gals and render them more or
less inert. They also speed re-
moval of unwanted chemicals
by way of the body's urinary
waste disposal system.
The British used the prin-
ciple in developing a chemical
defense for Lewisite poison gas.
Chelating agents also have
been developed against arsenic.
biSmuth and mercury poisoning
Now, says DR.. Chadwick,
Government and other re-
searchers are trying to develop
substances which might work
similarly on constituents OF
radioactive fallout.
Another idea, he said, is to
try to develop an effective
means of blocking" radioactive
iodine-one of the most feared
products of fallout-from en-
tering the thyroid gland where
too large a dose could result
in cancer.
Iodine of any kind - radio
active or not - is drawn in
by the thyroid. So, the logic
behind the antifallout research
is to develop nonradioactive
iodine compounds which would
load the thyroid with all the
iodine it can receive. Then, with
no place to go, the radioactive
iodine might be speedily ex-
creted from the body.
DR.. Chadwick also said there
is "a timely need for more in
formation on radiation coun-
ter-meaSures even though the
current fallout levels should not
cause undue public concern"

sued a statement saying he
had not meant to criticize the
recent Gallup. and that it was
the only possible course Of &C
ton at the time.
Mr.. Kennedy took note of
Reservists' morale at his No
vember 20 news conference.
He said those called up may
get out in less than a year
and urged them not TO grumble
in the meantime. He also
noted that Congress approved
the Gallup last summer.
Some Republicans in Con-
gress have called attention to
complaints of poor facilities at
some bases and alleged failure
to put the men to work at
useful jobs.
Gen. James A. Van Fleet
surveyed a number of bases and
reported to Mr.. Kennedy this

men and Reservists is "magnifi-
cent"

Van Allen Belt
Is Debated

BALTIMORE, Dec. 16 (AP).
said yesterday that
data sent back to earth by Ex-
plorer XII showed radiation
from the Van Allen belt posed
little problem to spacecraft.
Paul Butler, manager of the
project for the National Aero
nautics and Space Administra-
tion. which sent the satellite
into space last August Is, said
a glass strip only .0O3 of an
inch thick would provide pro-
lection from radiation.
DR.. Frank B. Mcdonald,
scientist on the project at
Goddard Space Flight Center
at Greenbelt, Md, said data
from previous satellites indi-
Gated the belt consisted of
more electrons than protons.
ElectronS are negative electrical
charges and protons are pos
tive electrical charges.
But Explorer XII, aloft for
1l2 days, showed protons out
number electrons by nearly
l 1000 to l. Mr.. Mcdonald said
the larger mass of the protons
slowed the velocity of the ra-
diation in the belt.
Spokesman for NASA said
Explorer XII stopped trans
mitting abruptly December 6
for undiscovered reasons. But,
they said, the satellite already
had radioed more than 3 billion
bits of information. They said
the satellite sent back more
useful data than all previous
scientific satellites.
The announcement was made
in connection with a Nation
wide drive by NASA to hire
1000 more engineers and sci
entists for the national space
program.
