Of Christianity in Africa. 1t is

first came to Uganda and Gen.
trail Africa. British explorers
were followed by missionaries
of both faiths, the Protestants
arriving in Uganda in 1877,
and the Catholic missionaries,
the White Fathers, in 1879.
The central and most power
full native figure at the time
was the Kabaka Cor King OF
Buganda, the main province OF
Uganda.
The leading missionaries OF

estant Church Missionary So
ciety and Father Simon Lour-
del of the Catholic White
Fathers.
Christianity had a small
growth in the beginning. Be-

Free Cubu Boss
For Guantanamo
Is Turned Down

LOS ANGELES, June %
(AP) Senator Goldwater may
think a fellow Senator's pro-
posal for q provisional Cuban
government at Guantanamo is
a good idea. But the State De-
partment doesn't.
The Arizona Republican said
in a speech yesterday that the
Kennedy administration should
give close attention to the pro-
posal made last Monday by
Senator Allott. Republican of
Colorado.
But in Washington, State
Department Press Officer Rich
ard I. Phillips said use Of the
naval base for such purposes
would be against the terms OF
the United States lease.
Senator Goldwater suggested
that reports of the Allott pro-
posal had been deliberately
kept out Of Washington news
papers at the administration
request. No such request wal
received by The Washington
Star
Alfred Friendly, managing
editor Of the Washington Post
said mo such advice was evel
given to us by the administra.
ton or anyone else" He added
that Senator Allott's idea wa.
not a new one.
Senator Goldwater told the
Los Angeles Rotary Club that
a provisional government could
be established at Guantanamo
without the slightest risk"
The idea offers "a means OF
establishing free Cuban out
post directed toward eventual
liberation of Cuba from Fidel
Castro's regime" Senator Gold
water added.
