600, 900 Congo bill was not paid.
Aid came quickly from the West,
reducing Congo costs to $4S, S,0O0,-
900.
The United States, Britain, Can
ada and others agreed to write off
the costs of their airlifting of
troops and supplies into the Congo,
while Washington pledged $780,
900 to $4,000, 900 in cash to reduce
the under-developed nations share.
The Communist nations refused
to pay.
Supported by its Is new men,
bers, the Afro-Asian bloc became
a force to be reclxoned with for
the first time since the UN was
founded, commanding 40 out of 90
votes. In fact its growing strength
and fear OF its eventual domina-
ton have given rise to several sug-
gestions that the UN general as
sembly be organized along new
lines.
The strength Of the fOrty-six
nation African-Aslan bloc was
sufficient TO approve measures
that had remained dormant for
years.
This included the establishment
Of a United Nations Capital De-
velopment Fund
The Economic Committee ap-
proved a number of measures
aimed at the economic assistance
Of under-developed countries.
One called on the industrially ad-
vanced nations to contribute per
cent Of their national incomes to
the less developed nations.
A United States plan to use
United Nations bodies as brokers
in the transference of surplus COM
modities to under-developed ma
tions also was approved.
It was the mounting strength
Of this bloc which also resulted
I'm Africa's demand for the voice
In UN determinations being real
lied for the first time.
This came when Liberia, under
a compromise, was elected to a
one-year term on the 11-nation
Security Council. This win give
Africa a voice for the first time in
the high level conferences from
which 1t had been excluded in the
past.
One other key action relating
to Africa came in the Trusteeship
Committee, when a commission
was authorized to investigate con-
ditions in Southwest Africa, a.
. committee was set up to study
conditions In Ruanda- Urundi and
Portugal was rebul1ed for refusing
to provide data on her overseas

most bitter debate.
Western, Communist, Asian and
African nations became deeply in
volved in disputes over the Secre-
tary Generals actions in the Congo
and in the political life of the Az
rican nations.
Many felt that the mounting Bit
terness reached its climax the
night Of Nov. ~, when the As

tense in the Assembly, the securi-
ty Council and the Budgetary
Committee. The budgetary dispute
dealt with the financing Of the
20, ,000-man Congo force.
After weeks Of debate, the COM
mittee decided to make the Congo
bill payable outside the regular
United Nations budget, but with a
legal obligation for members to
pay.

NM LITTLE CALVARY
Lord. how trivial seems my Calvary
When I consider Thine,
For only Simon helped Thee lift
Thy cross,
But many carry mine!
I am not scorned. nor scourged,
nor ridiculed,
And all along the way
Are many sweet unnamed

To wipe the tears away.
There are no cruel nail wounds in
my hands.
Nor thorns upon my brow.

To smooth the way. But Thou!
