Project person nel have nicknamed it '"riddle." The process employes a ground based electronic computer to cal culate commands for an aerial battle and instruct the pilots to perform interceptions. The signals also can be fed directly to auto matic pilots aboard the planes. Mai. Hollie A. Wilkes of the Electronic Systems Division said "Tiddle"-operated planes have these advantages over missiles: Tile manned aircraft can be recalled from a mission. They allow for positive, hu man, identification of a target. They allow for use of human judgment. ; . Wilkes pitted out. that keeping final authority to a pilot was particularly important in case of a malfunction. He said a pilot might be able to continue the attack if the machine failed.

Zorin planned more talks with other U.N. delegates today before calling a Security Council meeting to discus3 the threat of civil war in the Congo. Znrin is nresident of the council this month. One source said the ll-nation group might meet Tues day or Wednesday, but another delegate dealing with the Congo case said he favored delaying it until next week to enable the U.N. secretariat to gather more information. Ethiooia. Niceria and Sudan sent Zorin a letter Friday night asking that he convene the coun ril tn consider the situation "caused by the lawless acts of. mercenaries" in the Congo s se cessionist Katonga Province. The tliree African nations did not say what action they wanted the council to take. At its last Coneo meeting Feb. 21, the council (1) urged that I .Ti f it., u. measures ue im:ii im im mediate withdrawal of all mer cenaries from the Congo and 2) Texas Pink Grapefruit Thii pacial, ni til .thai grocery ipaclalt trom latt uk'i ad goad thru Wednes day.

Sa. 6th 'Store Open Till Midnight Market Basket 9th and Piaa South 6th t Shaita Way called for U.N. measures to pre vent civil war, by force if neces sary. The U.N. force seized su-ong-points in Katanga Sept. 13 in an attempt to oust die mercenaries, but Kalangan troops fought it to a stalemate. Last week the cen tral government announced its troops had penetrated 35 miles into Katanga in a police action to end the secession. But on Sat urday it admitted the Katangans had driven its soldiers back. Katanga's makeshift air force of less than 20 planes, manned by about 20 hired foreign fliers, was a major factor. Despite the council's instruc tions to prevent civil war, Uie U.N. office in the Congolese capi tal of Leopoldville last July made known that the U.N. force would not act to slop the coalition cen tral government from winning back Katanga. Last Thursday it went even farther. In a report to U.N. head quarters, the officer-in-charge. Sture Linner of Sweden, said he had' warned the Katsngans the U.N. force would shoot down their military planes If they kept on bombing central government troops in Kasai Province, staging area for the Katanga invasion. President Moise Tshombe of Katanga left Geneva Sunday night for the Congo after a week of medical examination He said his troops are prepared to defend their province against the invad ers and do not need white mer cenaries. "We are strong enough without Uicm." Tshombe declared. In Elisabelhville, capital of Ka tanga, army chief of stalf Joseph Yav said his force's only casual ties in tlie border fighting wci three slightly injured. But Asso ciated Press correspondent Colin Frost, alter a flight in a Katan ga plane to tlie frontier region, reported: "Even on its so-far lim ited scale, the border war has been fought with a ferocity com monplace in the Congo." 30,000 Congolese Live In Mud, Filth, Fear ELISABETHVILLE. Katanga. (API Some 30.000 Baluba tribes men, sitting in mud and filth on the northern outskirts of Elisa belhville, iell the sad story of the Congo. They include men, women and! children. Fear sent them to this camp for U.N. protection fear o! ancient tribal enemies, fear ol primitive brutality by the police, and maybe imagined terrors un known to modern man. The Baluba of Katanga are po litical followers of Jason Sendwe insofar as they have any political consciousness. Sendwe is president of the Asso ciation of the Baluba of Katanga iBalubakaO and was formerly President Moise Tshombe's most powerful political opponent in Ka tanga. Now vice prcm.er in the central Congolese government at Leopold ville, Sendwe is an exile from Ka tanga. The Baluba began to leave their homes in the African townships of Katanga more than two months ago. They said police of Tshombe's interior minister, Godefroid Mun ongo, had circulated through the townships, threatening and mal treating them. The Balubas settled down in what once was a handsome subur ban area, with a few handsome villas and many trees. Soon they were arriving by tlie thousand, bringing pots, pans, chairs, sew ing machines. They hacked limbs from trees. gathered grass and made thou. sands of huts. Trees, grass, shrubs and flowers have disappeared The Balubas squat in their huts waiting in fear. When it is dry, clouds of evil- smelling dust blow through the Milk Tieup Talks Halted NEW YOKK (AP) - Lengthy peace talks in a Teamsters Union strike that has caused a 13-day milk drought in tlie city and on Long Island were recessed early today after management negoti ators claimed exhaustion. Mayor Robert F. Wagner called a temporary hall at 3:30 a.m. 12'4 hours after tlie start of joint sessions that he had said would continue until a settlement was reached. The Teamsters had sought a $7 a week across-the-board pay in crease. Management had offered a $a.)0 package over two years camp. When wet, the Balubas cook, eat, sleep a:.J squat in the mud. Flies, rats and vermin make their life miserable. Naked chil dren wade in dirty ditches. The camp has no sanitary arrange ments. Traders have set up shop on packing boxes, selling everything trom hashish to human skin. A cemetery soon became necessary Swedish U.N. troops make regu lar patrohi through Lhe camp in armored cars. Once they opened fire when youths seized a Swedish soldier. Eight Balubas died. Ten days later it was discovered the bodies were bcins preserved with ice from a bi every. The Balubas said they were preserving the bodies as proof that tlie United Nations killed the tribesmen. Recently Uie Balubas killed three policemen. Police recovered the mutilated bodies. President Tshombe called to pay his last respects and insisted that tlie French, British and American con suls see the bodies. Hie 30,000 Balubas sitting in the mud illustrate tlie deep tribal sus picions and intense hatred which motivate Uie Congolese. They show why it Is so difficult to form a central government rep resentative of all sections of the Congo. The colonial powers for years made no effort to integrate Uie tribes. Instead they used these primitive divisions to consolidate control. Kalangan leaders insist they have nothing in common with the politicians in Leopoldville, 1,200 miles away. Katanga, they say, was included in the new republic simply because Uie Belgian colon ial authorities arbitrarily included it to suit their purposes. The Congo now has three ar mies: Uiose of Gen. Joseph Mo butu in Leopoldville, Victor Lun dula in Stanleyville, and Norbert Muke in Elisabethville. The U.N. task In reconciling these conflicting forces and main taining order in Uie Congo's 900. 000 square miles will take many years. Distances involved and the lack of roads and communications work against unity. Leaders in Katanoa liava nnlv the vaguest idea of what is hap peninc in Leorjoldvilla. Fmm thoir I public statements they appear to oeueve uie central government is in the hands of Communis!. seek. ing a share in Katanga's wealth, Visitors are told bv mvemment officials and white tuDDorters of the Tshombe government that Ka tanga has achieved & multiracial society unknown in the rest of the Congo. There is little evidence of il. ExceDt for eovornment lruwlerfc and Africans favored by govern ment positions, the pent mass of Africans have pretty much the same second-rate status as before. This is perhaps inevitable until money can be diverted from Uie armies to provide schools and buildings in an integrated social system. Any hint of an integrated society jwas certainly foreign to one Elis rbethville man, who told this cor respondent: "Onlv good Kaffir (Negro) is dead Kaffir." J. Henry Helser & Co.
