Premier of Congo
Expresses Concern
Over Mercenaries
WASHINGTON (UPI) -Premier
Cyrille Adoula of the
Congo has voiced concern
about the "menace" of mer
cenaries along the Congo's
southern frontier.
He told United Press Inter
national that Nationalist lead
er Kenneth Kaunda of Northern
Rhodesia had confirmed that
there were mercenaries along
the border who were willing to
support new actions of seces
sion in the Congo. He said a
Afl-CIO Division
Leading Teacher
Union Campaign
WASHINGTON (UPI) - The
AFL- CIO's Factory Workers'
Division is taking the lend in
a campaign to unionize school
teachers in more than a half
dozen major U.S. cities.
Walter Reuthcr, president of
the Industrial Union Depart
ment (IUD), which organizes
workers in factories, has allo
cated "substantial" money and
manpower for the drive spear
headed by the American Fed
eration of Teachers (AFT).
Organizers are busy In Los
Angeles, Philadelphia, Boston,
Detroit, Chicago, Minneapolis
St. Paul, Denver and other cit
ies in an effort to follow up the
success of the teachers' Local
2 in New York City.
Teachers in New York went
to the brink of a strike this fall
before their negotiators signed
a new contract with the Board
of Education. The AFL-CIO de
partment said it will bring $:U
million worth of salary In
creases and other benefits to
school employes.
Jack Conway, executive as
sistant to Mouther, confirmed
that organizing teachers was
one of the IlJD's main targets
at the present.
"Teachers arc waking up to
the (act that they need a un
ion," Conway said in an inter
view. "The New York settle
ment shows that collective bar
gaining can deal with profes
sional problems such as class
size and workload as well as
improve salaries."
"similar situation" existed
along The Congo's Angolan bor
der. But Adoula said these mer
cenaries represented "the only
cloud in sight" regarding re
integration of Katanga into
The Congo.
Criticisms Answered
Adoula also answered criti
cisms of The Congo here earlier
this week by Sir Roy Welensky,
outgoing Prime Minister of the
dissolving Federation of Rho
desia and Nyasaland. He as
serted that Welensky's regime
is one of "dictatorship and ra
cial discrimination and called
it a "20th century disgrace."
Adoula made the remarks in
written responses to questions
submitted to him before he left
for New York after a meeting
with President Kennedy and
talks at the World Bank and In
ternational Monetary Fund.
He said the talks were pur
sued in "a climate of great
understanding.
"We have profited from these
contacts by discussing the mon
etary problems of our country,"
he said.
U. S. officials said they con
sidered the IMF to be the key
to The Congo's economic re
covery. If inflation can be
checked by IMF-approved cur
rency reform, then The Congo
has a good future and will get
economic aid from nations
"poised" to assist, the officials
said.
Discussion Declined
Adoula did not go into details
about his economic talks and
declined to discuss steps toward
training and modernization of
the Congolese army, saying the
matter was a "military secret."
Multi-nation efforts to pre
pare the Congolese army for
tho day when UN forces leave
were discussed during his visit.
lie indicated the army was
striving to gain "all mastery
and effectiveness" of a modern
armv.
Welensky, in his speech, said
African governments were
"one-party dictatorships" and
cited The Congo as an example
of Africans being incapable of
effective self-government.
Adnula denied this. He said
that "in The Congo there is a
total liberty of expression and
1 thought."
Fight on Hunger
Gains in Spite
01 Population
STANFORD, Calif. (UPI) -
Whatever other problems t h e
population explosion may cause
mankind, it shouldn't be t h e
cause of hunger at least not
for a while.
In fact, man probably will
gain some ground in his battle
against hunger around ten
world between now and 1984, ac
cording to Emeritus Director
Merrill K. Bennett of the Stan
ford university food research institute.
"(Continued) shrinkage rather
than expansion of h u n g e r sit
uations in the world seems to
me in reasonable prospect," he
writes in the current issue of
food research institute studies.
"A billion mouths are accom
panied by a billion pairs of
hands and a billion brains.
Barring widespread warfare,
there should be a continuance of
the trends toward increased ur
banization, better transportation
and communication networks,
and more widespread land cul
tivation, Bennett said.
Vast amounts of well-watered
land are still unsettled in the
tropics, he said, and much more
existing acreage can be irri
gated, even without desalted sea
water. More swamps can be
drained, and existing farmlands
can be made to yield two crops.
And crops should get bigger
with greater use of fertilizers,
better pest control, improved
soil management and better
seeds.
But looking a few hundred
years farther ahead, Bennett
conceded the population growth
rate has got to slow down sometime.
If the t.6 per cent growth
rate of the UBO's continues in
definitely, the population densi
ty of the entire planet will reach
15,000 per square mile by 2317
leaving each individual a
strip of land 27 by 70 feet.
This, said Bennett, is "rather
small even nllowing for forth
coming miracles of science."
