Mercenaries
Regarded As
Katanga Mob
ELISABETHVILLE, Katanga
(AP) "The? get bigger, tougher
and uglier every day."
The security officer at Elisa
bethville Airport looked distaste-'
fully at a group of young men
clambering out of the plane that
had just come in from Europe.
They were, the latest additions
to the Katanga gendarmerie, now
recruiting men from all parts of
the world to defend Katanga's independence.
These mercenaries are joined
every day by new soldier-adven
turers. Lured by high pay, they
have come from the United States,
Britain, Fiance, Germany, Po
land, Israel, South Africa, Rho
desia and, of course, Belgium.
Some of the better types become
officers but the others, undisci
plined, untidy, rowdy and ruthless,
have joined a group known as
"Les Affreux" (The Frightfuls).
The Frightfuls swagger some
times stagger around town with
revolvers slung low from the web
bing of their camouflaged para
trooper smocks. They are usually
unshaven, have cropped heads or
long oily hair, and sport bushy
moustaches. You can find them
in any bar usually drunk.
When the Belgian army sta
tioned in Katanga withdrew fol
lowing independence. President
Moise Tshombe's government had
little left in the way of a defense
force. A few Belgian officers and
men volunteered to join the new
Katanga gendarmerie and, after
sifting carefully through the Afri
can remnants of the old mutinous
Force Publique, began forming a
new Ermy.
Their work was speeded, first
by the threat of invasion by tha
pro-Lumumba Congo national ar
my, and then by a Baluba re
bellion. As an experiment, a combat
group was organized without any
definite' mission except to keep
order arid "make an impression"
on rebels and invaders. It con
sisted of a few Belgian officers,
warrant officers, a handful of
African soldiers and European
"other ranks."
Then it was decided to recruit
as many whites as possible for
similar groups and Defense Min
ister Joseph Yav went to Europe
to find "technical advisers." Over
night Elisabethvilie seemed to ba
filled with a new foreign legion.
General Sees
Betfer Turn
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (UPI)
Air Force Chief of Staff Gen.
Thomas D. White believes the
change of administration may
ease U.S.-Soviet tension and re
sult in the release from prison ol
U2 pilot Francis G. Powers.
"There is a possibility Powers
will be ireed," White said Sunday
on arrival at Maxwell AFB here.
"We all certainly hope so. A
change of administration leads to
a climate where this sort of thing
can happen."
White, here to address the an
nual Montgomery Chamber of
Commerce banquet at the State
Coliseum Monday, said he was
very optimistic about the Power!
situation.
Dial Error
Saves Life
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) -William
Horowitz dialed a wrong
number Sunday and may have
saved a man's life.
"Please help me," cried a man
at the other end of the line. "I'm
dying."
Horowitz asked the man's name
and phone number. When he
dialed back and got the same
plea for help, he called police.
Patrolmen checked the address
listed for the number and found
Anthony J. Lancor, 74, suffering
from a" heart attack.
Taken by ambulance to a hos
pital, he was reported in satis
factory condition.
