HEADLINE PERSONALITY
u Thont Is Man of Action

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,
Nov. 4 (AP).-The man chosen
as interim Secretary-Genera
Of the United Nations is a
practicing neutral who has
sought to get along with both
the Communists and the West
but only when he believed
they were right.
Burma's 52-year-old U Thant
firmly believes a true neutral
must be an active one, who
calls the shots as he sees them.
Peace cannot be achieved
through passive neutralism,
which would mean a withdraw
al from the battle for peace"
he once told the General AS
sembly.
Criticized Both Sides
AS head OF Burma's U. N.
delegation, he has denounced
the Soviet Union for interven-
ton in Hungary, the United
States for its position on Cuba
and France for its Algerian
policy.
Performance has shown him
a man of action, opposing any
attempt TO weaken the author
ity of the United Nations ex-
Iecutive.
When Premier Khrushchev
demanded last year that Dag
Hammarskjold be replaced by
a three-headed troika, Mr..
Thant told the assembly he was
against any scheme that would
water down the Secretary-Gen-
earl's powers.
ANY such course is not only
bound to retard the efficiency
Of the United Nations opera
tons, but is sure to weaken the
organization ITSELF" he as
serted.
His record of impartiality
and belief in a strong United

diplomats to liken him 20 Mr..
