Tshombe Faces Arrest Threat as U.N. Move on Kolwezi Looms
Diplomats report Tshombe may be arrested and transferred to Leopoldville on treason charges amid a U.N. advance on Kolwezi. He arrived in Elizabethville allegedly ready to accept a subsidiary provincial post, but fear surged with Congolese nationalist officers and Leopoldville officials arriving. Riot police broke up a crowd outside his hotel as he slipped away through a back door. Scores of whites at a jazz session also lost a chance for a farewell demonstration.

Leapfrogging Skybolt Biggest Defense Gamble
President Kennedy and Defense Secretary McNamara gamble that the United States leads in intercontinental missiles and will avoid a full nuclear war in 10 years. They shelve Skybolt and delay RS70 and Nike Zeus while seeking breakthroughs to leapfrog defenses with new systems. If wrong, the U S faces major defense and offense loopholes including naked vulnerability to ICBMs and limited strike capability. This relies on tax cuts and budget tradeoffs and ongoing research in defense and space programs.
