DAVID LAWRENCE

What a travesty Of grief
the Moscow regime has given
to the world over the news
Of Patrice Lumumba's death
in the Congo.
No tears were shed by the
Communists when they
engineered the uprising in
side the Congo last July that
resulted in the raping of
many white women by Con-
golese natives.
Now the Communists
blame the death Of Mr.. Lu-
mumba-their own agent
on the Secretary General of
the United Nations. They
claim the dead tribesman
was the duly elected premier"
Of the Congo Parliament.
But on the same day that
such propaganda was being
transmitted over the air
waves, Stewart Alsop hap
pened to publish in this
weeks issue of The Saturday
Evening Post an article de-
claring that Mr.. Lumumba
has been a Communist tool.
The article-written, of
course. before his death but
after an extensive investiga-
tion in Africa-sayS in part:
Much has been made by
the Communists, the neu :
tralistS and some plain fat
heads of the fact that Lu-
mumba is the democratic
cally elected premier of the
Congo. It is quite true that
the Congolese Parliament
voted to make Lumumba
premier. But this triumph
Of parliamentary democracy
was achieved by a judicious
mixture of threats and
bribery. In Lumumba's hey
day he bought members of
the Congolese parliament at
the going rate of $4,000 a
head. There was never
much Of a secret about where
this money came from
either. The Russians, the
CZechs, the Chinese Com
muniStS, the Ghanians, the
Egyptians and both the
Belgian bankers and the
Belgian Communists all
bought q slice of Lumumba
preferred on the Lumumba
bull market.

Vice President Gives Support to Chief
And Seeks Not to Be Too Prominent

Mr.. Johnson Is not now
and never was more CON
Servative" than the Presi-
dent, except possibly on a
single issue - civil rights.
There his Southern geogra-
ply inevitably clashed with
the Northern geography of
Mr.. Kennedy.
The Vice President was
once much Mr.. Kennedy's
senior. as Democratic Sen
ate leader while the Presi-
dent was q rather junior
member there. Now he is
making 1t crystal clear that
he Is definitely the Presi-
dents junior and is wholly
content with that position.
Moreover, Mr.. johnson Is
genuinely grateful for an
unbroken series Of generous
acts toward him by the Presi-
dent. No Vice President be-
fore in history-not even
Richard Nixon in the Eli
senhower years-has been
brought so intimately and so
continuously into collabora-
tion at every step with his
President.
The more Mr.. johnson has
seen Of Mr.. Kennedy In action
at the White House, the more
his respect and liking for the
President have risen.
The President, on his side,
Is magnanimouS in his deal
ingS with the Vice President
in large ways and in small.
In summary, then, the ap-
aFoaching first-month ami
versary Of the new admins
tration draws near without
a sign Of that rift" between
these two young. powerful
and candidly ambitious men
which many had predicted
and for which many more
had hoped.

AIsop Report on Lumumbo's Activities
Quoted as Unmosking Reds Role

mumba became the demo-
cratically elected premier of
the Congo. And this sug-
gests how meaningless high
sounding words are likely to
be, measured against the
African realities"
Almost coincident with
the publication Of this re-
markable story by Mr.. Alsop
indeed, it is prophetic of
today'S events-the news
came from Cairo that Presi-
dent Nasser of the United
Arab Republic, who has been
playing the Communist game
right along in the Congo,
has granted full recognition
to the Congo regime headed
by Antoine Gizenga, a lieu
tenant of Mr.. Lumumba. He
announced it in messages to
the heads of the Casablanca
conference nations-Moroc-
co, Ghana and Guinea-and
Of Indonesia, India and
Yugoslavia.
1t will be recalled that the
CaSablanca conference de-
cided as a group to withdraw
their respective troop con-
tingents from the United
Nations forces in the Congo,
thus. in effect, taking the
side of the Communists and
their instrument-Mr. Lu-
mumba.
Throughout the world,
wherever they have active
agents. the Communists have
started simultaneous demon
strations Of protest against
the massacre" Of Mr.. Lu-
mumba and his aides. Mos
COW, moreover, has declared
it no longer will deal with
or recognize" Dag Hammar-
skiold as Secretary General
Of the United Nations.
This opens the way to the
only logical action that can
be taken in response to such
a move-the expulsion Of
the Soviet government from
the U. N. Sooner or later
treason within the ranks of
the U. N. has to be dealt
with, and the announced re-
bellion against the Secretary
General affords the basis
for punitive action. Senator
Fulbright says it "iS Ger
tainly Q violation of article
100 Of the U. N. Charter"

Pravda Hits
Albania Rule

MOSCOW, Dec. 2 (AP).-
Pravda today accused Albanian
leaders of instituting a reign OF
terror in that tiny Balkan
country, which is rebelling
against Soviet Premier Khru-
shchev's discrimination policy.
The Soviet Communist Party
newspaper said that Albania's
Red rulers were using "the dis
graceful Beria methods of do
ing away" with all who dis
agree with them.
Lavrenty P. Beria was the
Soviet secret police chief who
was executed for his part in the
Stain purges after the death
OF the old dictator.
Yuri Andropov, a former
Soviet ambassador to Hungary,
wrote the Pravda article. Mos
cow Radio broadcast excerpts.
Mr.. Andropov said Gen.
Enver Hoxha, dictatorial ruler
of Albania, had created a
"monstrous fabrication" in al
leging that the Soviet Union,
in cahoots with Yugoslavia. de-
liberately provoked the Hun
gary uprising in 1856.
Mr.. Andropov, now a depart
ment head of the Soviet Com
munist Party's Central Com
mittee, charged the Albanian
leaders of grossly defying the
will of their people" and at
tempting to undermine the
Communist move ement by
championing the cult of Stain.
They increasingly set them
selves up against the whole
international Communist move
ment," he said.
Red China, however. has
steadfastly supported Albania
in what is generally interpreted
as a backhand slap at Mr..
