u. N. BoIsters Forces
AsCongo Disorder Rises

LEOPOLDVILLE, the Congo,
Aug. 80 (AP).-The United Ma
tionS rushed $50 Ethiopian re-
Inducements to Stanleyville to-
day as tension between the U.N.
and Congolese troops mounted
in the Lumumbist stronghold.
The U.N. announced that
Ingram Englund, its chief
officer in Stanleyville, was
threatened with arrest over the
week end while having talks
with Antoine Gizenga, the Lu-
mumbist leader.
A Congolese soldier burst
into the room at Mr.. Gizenga's
office and pointed a rifle at
the chest of Mr.. Englund, a
SWede, and told him he was
under arrest.
But the U. N. officials Ethio-
plan escort threatened to use
force and the CongoleSe backed
down.
Seventeen families of U.N.
officials in Stanleyville have
been flown back to Leopold
vile as a safety measure.
United States Consul Thomas
Cassidy flew back to Leopold
vile last night after being ex-
PEELED from Stanleyville.
New Break Reported
He returned amid reports
that there has been a fresh
break between the Central
Congolese government of Prime
Minister Cyrille Adoula and the
Stanleyville authorities. Word
from Stanleyville was that Mr..
Gizenga has formed a new po-
litical party violently anti
Western and anti-American.
Hundreds of pro-LumumbiSt
troops were reported milling
around the streets of Stanley
vile and the families of all
United Nations personnel in the
city have been told to get
ready to leave.
Mr., Cassidy was arrested and
beaten by Congolese troops in
Stanleyville after LumumbiSt
firebrandS haranging a public
rally had told the crowd Amer
ica was behind the seizure of
an Air Jordan plane bringing
uniforms and food to the town
from Cairo.
American Beaten
United Nations troops de-
tained the aircraft on the or
ders of Congolese Prime Minis
ter Adoula. Mr.. cassidy was
at the airport TO insure the
safety of two American mem
berS of the plane crew. He was
arrested and beaten about the
body with rifle butts. Later he
was placed under joint United
Nations and Congolese protec-
ton.
His expulsion order was
signed by Mr.. Gizenga in his
capacity of Congolese vice pre-
mier. Mr.. Cassidy was accused
of melting the population and
of being a menace to public
order.
The United States Embassy
said the facts of the incident
are being placed before Mr..
Adoula's government. In the
meantime, said a spokesman,
Mr.. Cassidy would remain in
the Congo.
