A comparative throng of

For the next 20 minutes they
argued over the time Of meet

Will Meet at II AM.
Chairman Cannon, Democrat
of Missouri, of the Appropria-
tionS Committee, asked unani-
nous consent to file conference
reports on the public works and
foreign aid appropriation bills
by midnight. He suggested that
the House meet at 10 am. to-
day. Acting Majority Leader
Albert announced that hope
springs eternal" that the House
late today also would get a 81
billion supplemental money bill
not yet passed by the Senate.
Mr.. Gross protested that 10
am. would be too early for him
to prepare to pick the public
works bill to pieces. He said
he also needed time to read the
fine print in the foreign aid bill
and the supplemental bill if
they suddenly appeared. Fin

JADOTVILLE, the Congo,
Sept. 26.-Commandant Patrick
Quinlan, senior officer of 100
United Nations personnel held
prisoner in this K at a ng a,
stronghold, sat at a sidewalk
table under the awning of his
hotel prison camp yesterday
and reported everything is
fine"
Across the sunbaked street,
Katangan parachute troops in
red berets and camouflage uni
forms kept watch from the
front of requisitioned cafes.
Others manned roadblockS at
the end of the street.
Despite the troop presence
and prisoners. this was the
most relaxed part of the town.
The rest of the European quar-
ter seemed virtually empty be-
cause Africans failed to show
up after a night of rioting in
the African township.
I reached Jadotville after a
Six-hour drive over bush tracks
from Kipushi on Katanga's
border with Northern Rhodesia.
The main, road was reported
impossible because of United
Nations road blocks.
Rifle fire cracked out over
the African quarter as the gen.
darmerie fired in the air to
break up fighting between rival
African tribes. Trucks ferried
arrested Africans into military
headquarters.
The United Nations prisoners
are 180 Irish soldiers and l
Irish civilian, 6 Italian Red
Cross officers, 2 Swedes and l
Norwegian.
Wounded Recovering
Commandant Quinlan re-
ported that all five men

tie that ended with the sur

the prisoners are getting good

interpreter from Sjomarken,

Jadotville Irish. He said they
put up a great fight. These
are very young soldiers but
they kept going with great
spirit even though short OF
water and food"
Commandant Quinlan said
the Irishmen's main handicap
in the Jadotville fighting was
lack of advance warning from
the United Nations that a mill
tary operation was to start in
an attempt to reunite Katanga
with the rest Of the Congo.
II received a message just as
: the Katangans started shooting

Rebel Support

claimed it had the support of
rebel army units in Oriental
Province.
Leopoldville political circles
remained skeptical that any
solid agreement has been
reached with the military COM
mand of rebel leader Antoine
Gizenga.
Army headquarters said an
agreement was concluded at ne
gotiations between officers Of

Military spokeSmen hedged,
however, on the vital question
Of whether the rebel officers
were authorized to speak for
the Stanleyville army COM
mander, Gen. Victor Lundula.
If the Mobutu claim is true,
1t could indicate a weakening
of Gen. Lundula's authority
and a growing disloyalty among
the rebel forces.
Gen. Lundula himself has re-
peatedly refused to meet Gen.
Mobutu, saying any tie-up be-
tween the rival armies must
result from a political accord.
A radio broadcast from the
rebel capital at Stanleyville de-
MED that Lundula's army had
in any way acknowledged Gen.

tee has thrown economy to the

The Missouri Democrat, who
turned 50 on April IL, won
the praise of Rules Committee
Chairman Smith, conservative

for uttering probably the long

of words ever applied to that
growing fiscal practice.
Mr.. Cannon and Representa-

that they were engaging in
little more than an exercise in

before the expanded Rules
Committee. They urged clear
ance of bills to give the APP

control and Stricter supervision
over spending Of Federal funds.
The committe deferred action"
on two such bills yesterday and
was to consider several others
today.
But Mr.. Cannon gave the
Rules Committee an earfull.
He called so-called "backdoor
spending" irresponsible, illogi-
cal, unsound, unconstitutional,
inefficient and absurd and at
least half = a dozen OF h er
equally unflattering things. He

although the President might
come up with a balanced bud

MohoIe Project Upsets
Old Oceon-Bed Ideas

While Russians opened space
to man last week, American
scientists cracked another
frontier-the deep ocean floor.
BY the time they lifted drill,
several old ideas about the
ocean floor lay in limbo.
Back from the Pacific ad-
venture, a tanned Willard Bas-
com, director of Project Mohole,
seemed fairly sure here yester-
day that with SIS million and
five years of work, American
scientists could drill all the way
through nearly three miles of
the earth's crust to the under
lying rock known as the mantle.
Ship Holds Steady
The month of drilling Just
ended had proved a ship could
remain steady enough for a
drill to go through more than
10000 feet of water and into
the oceans floor The ship used
was Cuss I, rented from a priv
ate firm and specially rigged.
The experiments showed Mr..
Bascom said, that:
