Schweitzer Urges
Withdrawal of
UN in Katanga
Brussels - 1UPI1 - Dr. Albert
Schweitzer, famed philosoph
er humanitarian, has called
for the withdrawal of all UN
and Congolese troops from
Katanga and world recogni
tion of the independence of
the hreakway province of the
old Belgian Congo.
in an to iim. oooooi u .
Wednesday on the front page
"of the Brussels newspaper Lei
Dernier Ileiire, Schweitzer
said the old Congo stale was
formed "by persuasion and by
the force of arms, by forcing
African peoples, big and
small, to be part of it."
lie said the colonial era in
Africa is over. The former
Belgian Congo, he said, now is
made up of two parts, neither
of which has claims on, or ob
ligations, to the other.
1 "Juridically they arc abso
lutely independent one from
the other," Schweitzer wrote.
"No war, undertaken by one
against the other lo submit it
in whatever fashion, has any
juridical foundation.
"No foreign country can as
sume lo have the right to want
lo force one of these two inde
pendents to submit itself to
"the other. It is incomprehen
sible that in our days a for
eign stale is in war with Ka
langa lo force it to pay its
dues lo the other Congolese
stale. One wonders how a
civilized stale can undertake
such a thing."
', This was obvious reference
lo demands by the Central
'Congolese governmenl, sup
ported by the United Nations,
.that Katanga should share its
-income lrom its rich mineral
resources with the rest of the
Congo.
X Schweitzer noted that iho
UN mission is not to make

would be recognized soon.
Federal Prime Minister Sir
Roy Welensky and his United
Federal parly now stand com
pletely isolated in central Af
rican politics, and his depar
ture from the political scene
is regarded here as a matter
of brief time.
Deputy Prime Minister R.
A. Butler, the British govern
ment's minister in charge of
central African affairs, met
in secret for a week wilh three
leading Rhodesian federal cab
inet ministers to discuss the
future of Ihe federation.
Welensky sent his three top
aides as emissaries to London
in a last minute effort to halt
the break-up of the federation.
But apparently the mission
failed.
Last Friday Welensky an
nounced in Salisbury that he
was recalling the Federal par
liament. It had not been due
to meet until Feb. 4.
Butler is expected lo make
an announcement any day in
the house of commons on cen
tral African affairs.
He was expected to an
nounce a date for his visit to
the federation early in the
new year for talks wilh fed
eral and territorial leaders.

an agreement in writing be

Macmillan and Welensky that
the British government will
confer with the federal gov
ernment before taking any ac
tion. The arrival of Winston Field

has given the British govern
ment one of its toughest prob
lems since it began handing
over colonial power to the
people of Africa following
World War II.
Bill of Rights
Under the constitution in
Southern Rhodesia, Britain
handed over its control of Af
rican rights to the government
of Southern Rhodesia in re
turn for a bill of rights for
Africans being written into
tile new constitution.
If Field s declared policy of

tion. But the power to carry this
out and take over the govern

mean sending out British
troops to fight, according to
observers there.
Even a threat to do this
might throw Southern Rho
desia Into the arms of South
Africa, they have said.

Chicago -WPli- An old Boxer
dog called Kip brought Christ
mas to the shattered world of
a tear-stained boy of 3.
The boy's name is Earl. He
had been taken under court
direction to St. Joseph's Home
for the Friendless. Officials of
the home would say only that
his story was a tragic one.
He cried continuously.
There were 101 other chil
dren, but he couldn't accept
them.
The gentle nuns cajoled
him, mimicked him, loved
him, but couldn't release him
from what they called a "fear
reaction." His mother had
been a good woman, they said,
and had kept him very close.
After a few days his cheeks
were puffed and ruddy. He
hadn't eaten. He clutched a
nun's robe in his tiny hand
and held on, but he wouldn't
snuggle.
Mascot Goes Along
Fifteen blocks away at Fifth
Army headquarters, four sol
diers loaded 150 Christmas
presents into a station wagon.
They took along Kip, the
mascot for the haedquarter's
newspaper.
Sister Martha Joseph greet
ed the uniformed young men
and led them to a meeting
hall. A large aluminum Christ
mas tree stood in the center
of the room. The soldiers un

loaded the gifts and stacked
them under the tree.
Sister Martha Joseph sig
naled and 101 youngsters,
none over age 9, filed in wide
eyed. Then a loud crying came
down the hall. Earl entered,
tears streaming and his hand
clutching the nun's robe.
A soldier tried to talk lo
Earl but his cries became
louder.
Kip Shivers
It was cold outside. Kip,
who had just come along for
the ride, was shaking badly in
the car even wilh a heavy
wool coat. One of the soldiers
brought the old dog in.
The children went wild
when they saw her. When the
nuns quieted them, it was
agreed Kip would be allowed
off his leash if the children
would not grab her. The sol
dier slipped off the leash.
The big, old dog sniffed the
101 outstretched hands, ig
nored them and walked quick
ly to the crying boy. She gave
Earl a big lick square in the
face.
The boy put up a hand to
fend off more advances and
Kip nuzzled him horsclike in
the tummy. He plopped sit
ting on the floor and grabbing
in reflex, caught Kip's coat.
Sound Different
The dog gave him another

slobbering kiss. Earl squealed.
But the sound was different.
The small boy stood up and
petted the dog. Then he put
his arm around her neck and
rested his head on her ear. Ha
smiled.
The boy and the dog were
together the rest of the after
noon. When finally the sol
diers gently separated them.
Earl sniffed but didn't cry out
loud. When he walked away,
he took the nun's hand in
stead of her robe.
Sister Martha said today
the boy has slept and eaten
well since then. This morning,
when he cried, just for a short
time, he snuggled against one
of the nuns.
