Leopoldville, Congo, Aug. 4 -
Like the suddenness of dawn af-
ter the long African night events
of the past few hours have cleft
the darkness of the Congo and set
this equatorial land aglow with
hope.
Formation of new national
coalition government in a desper-
ate bid to end the Congo crisis is
probably the most constructive de-
velopment in Congolese politics
since the nations independence

Nobody, of course, pretends the
thunder clouds have entirely disap-
peared from the Congo's horizon.
The new government under Cy-
rifle Adoula's premiership has
drawn Congolese parliamentarians
together from IL separate parties.
The Congo's first government I'M
der the premiership of Patrice
LumuMba was a similarly large
and unwieldy one which soon foun-
dered, and there is the danger of
internal dissent in this one.

This argument takes substance

However it is much better to avoid

to make amends.
But Little Pock and Montgom-

Southern states, no state can be
