Bift fo Gendarmes
In Congo Province
Leopoldvillc, The Congo
IUPD - An estimated 2,000 ram
paging Baluba tribesmen bat
tled gendarmes in the bush
country near Kingolo, in Ka
tanga province Saturday and
at least 18 policemen were
killed in the bloody fight, dis
patches said.
A report from Elizabeth
ville, the Katanga capital,
said another 10 gendarmes
were injured in the battle,
second in three days in the
area. There were no figures
on Baluba casualties. But at
least 35 men, including 30
Balubas and five gendarmes,
died in the first battle.
The Katanga Interior minis
try said the first battle occur
red Thursday when 300 Balu
bas killed a woman and burn
ed a village and then turned
to attack police near Kabalo,
440 miles northwest of Eliza-bethville.
It was not known how
many gendarmes took part in
the battles. The gendarme
force is a semi-military police
unit, well-trained and well-
armed.
The Balubas have modern
weapons, many of them sup
plied by white renegades, and
also use bows and arrows,
spears and jungle traps.
UN officials in Elizabeth
ville had no information about
the battle at Kongolo, some
500 miles north of Elizabeth
ville. The UN command in Leo
poldville appeared more con
cerned with the protection of
whites in Oriental province.
U.S. Consul Robert Mc
Ilvain flew to Stanleyville to
day to aid any Americans
threatened with slaughter in
the leftist reign of terror in
the Patrice Lumumba stronghold.
