Rockefeller Signals Support for Ticket in GOP Contest
Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller appears ready to back the Republican ticket amid policy disputes as GOP governors gather in Glacier National Park. The meeting follows Truman’s statement he will not be a delegate to the Los Angeles convention, fueling Kennedy backers and shaping a potential first ballot nomination with Symington’s position seen as weakened by some. Rockefeller stresses he will not bolt the party while signaling possible support for Nixon, as governors push for elderly health insurance and oppose administration policy.

Old Rivals Teaming Up In Belgian Congo Leaders
In Brussels AP reports two former rivals unite to govern Belgian Congo at independence. Patrice Lumumba, 34, becomes prime minister after leading the National Congolese Movement and forming a coalition, while Joseph Kasavubu, 42, accepts a ceremonial presidency with his Abako party holding 12 seats. Lumumba, a tall Batetela with glasses and a sharp wardrobe, led a path from a clerk at Starville post office to political prominence, including brief jailings. Kasavubu, quiet and compact, born 1917 in lower Congo, founded Abako and rose from clerk to political leadership, becoming Congo’s first African head of government.
