o o The Bulletin, Friday, November 22, 1963 Soviet embassy counselor hustled barefoot to plane, expelled by Congo police LEOPOLDVILLE, The Congo (UPI) Congo police hustled a barefoot Soviet diplomat to the airport Thursday night and ex pelled him from the country, it was learned today. The ousted official was em bassy counselor Boris Voronin, one of the two Russian diplo mats arrested Tuesday on charges of aiding a plot against the government. Informed sources said Voronin was escorted to the Leopoldville airport by a heavy military guard and placed aboard an airliner for Brussels, Belgium. The soldiers prevented anyone from talking to him. The sources also said the dip lomat arrested with Voronin, embassy press attache Yuri Maikotnykh, did not appear at the airport. Presumably, he was still in the custody of Con golese authorities. Airport sources in Brussels saftl Voronin caught a flight to Moscow from the Belgian capi tal. He talked to two Soviet Embassy officials at the air port, but refused to make any statement to newsmen. It was learned that the diplomat was barefoot when he left Leopold ville and received a pair of socks from somebody aboard the plane.) Thursday Premier Cyrille Adoula ordered both men out of the country by Saturday at the latest for allegedly support ing a plot to overthrow the Con golese government. Expected To Leave Adoula also said that the other members of the Russian embassy in Leopoldville were no longer welcome in the Con go, and they were expected to leave the country soon. The Russian embassy main tains about 100 people in Leo poldville, including women and children. (In Moscow Thursday, Soviet Foreign. Minister Andrei Grom yko handed the Congolese en voy a note demanding punish ment for those who arrested and manhandled Voronin and Maikotnykh. (The note did not reply to the charges of subversion. But it called the arrests "an act of arbitrariness and violence un precedented in international re lations against Soviet diplo mats.") In his announcement, Adoula stressed that his action did not mean the Congo was severing its relations with the Soviet Un- BEND SHRINE CLUB INVITES ALL SHRINERS AND THEIR LADIES TO THE INSTALLATION PARTY no-hose dinner and dance SAT., NOV. 23 at the Bend Golf Club start! 7:00 p.m. YOU'RE SEE jr .it r ii it ROBERTSON 357 South Sixth ion. He said his government would accept replacements for the ousted Russians. Voronin and Maikotnykh were arrested at gunpoint as they re turned from Brazzaville, the capital of the former French Congo, by ferry across the Congo river. Pulled From Car Eyewitnesses said the Rus sians refused to get out of their car, and that Congolese police who stopped them finally pulled the diplomats out of the auto mobile by their heels. Accord ing to the reports, one of them ripped up a piece of paper and swallowed it before the police moved in. Adoula said documents taken from Voronin and Maikotnykh proved that the diplomats were supporting a plot to overthrow his regime by the "Committee of National Liberation" headed by Christoph Gbenye. The anti government committee has its headquarters in Brazzaville. Adoula said the documents implicated the rest of the staff of the Russian Embassy in Leo poldville. Leopoldville is across the river from Brazzaville. The premier said the papers showed that Gbenye's commit tee asked the Russian Embassy to give it five billion counter feit Congolese francs. Such a large amount of counterfeit cur rency would disrupt the Congo lese economy. The committee also requested "a veritable war arsenal . . . and other tools of espionage," Adoula said. Another Russian, newsman Benik Beknazar - Yuzbatchev, was arrested by Congolese se curity police in Leopoldville early Thursday. Blast leveled at Thornton SALEM (UPI) -House Re publican Minority Leader F. F. Montgomery Thursday blamed Democratic Atty. Gen. Robert Y. Thornton for prolonging the special session of the legisla ture and "confusing the issues." The attack came as Thornton drafted an opinion on whether it would be legal to transfer the Boardman project to the Veter ans Affairs agency. The opinion was due today. But Thornton Thursday suggest ed referring the whole matter to the people. . Montgomery said this would 1 "open the door to log-rolling at its worst." ! He said it would set region against region. "We must look at the state as a whole," he said. "Legislators cannot duck the responsibilities to make de cisions," the Eugene lawmaker said.

Call 382-429) RANGES church measure on language use VATICAN CITY (UPI)-The Ecumenical Council, in the first final action on any major issue since it was convened more than a year ago, today over whelmingly approved the use of modern languages instead of Latin in most forms of Roman Catholic worship. The council fathers voted 2,158 to 19 in a final vote pre ceding promulgation of the dog matic constitution by Pope Paul VI in a ceremony expected next weeK. Th pontiff will act on the document at public session. An open vote at that time by the council tamers is considered a formality. tast weeK ine council con cluded a document on social communications, but compared to the dogmatic constitution on the liturgy, that is considered a secondary decree. The document on liturgy has seven chapters. Its general aim is to modernize the forms of worship for greater understand ing. It is the result of two years of preparatory commission work, 15 full general meetings at the council last year, subse quent revisions in commission and a final series of votes at the current council session. One of the chapters allows for the use of modern languages to replace Latin in baptisms, con firmations, confessions, com munions, marriages, holy or ders (ordaining of priests) and extreme unction. The important reforms of the document regarding the Mass are contained in the second chapter, which Is long and conv plex. Its most widely hailed regulation authorizes bishops to permit the use of modern spok en languages, from English to Swohili, in large parts of the Mass. Although technically the canon, or central part of the Mass, is supposed to remain in Latin, the document opens the way for its celebration eventual ly in the language of the wor shipers.
