Congo Cease Fire Not Seen by U N Officials

Thant told British officials that two U.N. envoys Ralph Bunche and Robert Gardiner would pursue a political reconciliation between Katanga and the Congo government in Leopoldville. U.N. aims include freedom to carry out resolutions. U.S. stance remains that a cease-fire must wait for those objectives. Tshombe risks losing power as U.N. forces tighten in Katanga, while his peace pleas contrast with a prior call to fight. Eichmann, captured in Argentina, faced a notable trial in Israel which cost about $5 million.
