Resources Plan Drawn By JFK
Dag Hammarskjold asked for 7,000 more troops to raise the U.N. Congo force to 20,000. Malaya and India weigh contributions while Japan ponders observers, as African and Asian nations seek to avoid involvement. The force could dip to about 13,000 by March 1 due to withdrawals by several nations. Hammarskjold briefed the Congo Advisory Committee and prepared messages urging Belgium and others to comply with the Security Council order against foreign personnel in Congo. Belgium resists past appeals amid U.S. pressure.
