Action

the UN force of troops from
other African nations on Se
curity Council orders. About
2000 of an eventual force of
possibly 6000 have been flown
in.
Belgium, which granted inde
pendence to the Congo June 30,
refused to budge in the face of
the mounting crisis.
"There will be no change in
the Belgian government's attitude
regarding our troops here as a re
sult of the Congo government's
ultimatum," a Belgian Embassy
spokesman said.
He said the Belgian position
was that Belgian troops must I
remain to guarantee the safety
of whites until there were
enough United Nations troops
to take over this protection.
The Belgian radio said the Con
go Senate adopted a resolution
opposing Lumumba's ultimatum,
adding it "rejects any eventual
intervention of Soviet Russia in
the internal affairs of the Congo."
The Senate also demanded that
Lumumba return to Lepoldville,

U.S.-CubanDispute
May Go to OAS
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (IP)—Cuba accused the United States yesterday of trying to
pin a Communist label on Fidel Castro's revolutionary government. The United States
denied the charge, but warned that no alien power would be permitted to establisli a
beachhead in the Western Hemisphere.

gree program.
Christie's talk, which will be
open to the public, is sponsored
as a part of the 38th annual

(tittirgiatt
at the request of Cuba to air
charges that the United States had
invoked a policy of economic ag
gression against the Castro re
gime.
The council was expected to
take the immediate heat out' of
the situation by approving an Ar
gentine-Ecuadorean resolu Lion
tossing the dispute to the Organ
ization of American States, and
pointedly warning "ail other
states" to refrain from aggravat
ing Cuban-U.S. relations.
This was regarded as directed
at the Soviet Union. which has
served notice it will support
Cuba in its dispute with the
United States.
Cuban Foreign Minister Raul
Roa and U.S. Ambassador Henry
Cabot Lodge were the principal
protagonists in the council de
bate.
' Roa, a slight, balding mus
tached man in silver-rimmed
glasses, told the council the Unit
ed States provoked a Soviet warn
ing of rocket attack when it re
vived the Monroe Doctrine in an
attempt to dominate Latin Amer
ica.
Is it necessary," he asked, "in
order to preserve hemispheric
unity, democratic principles and
continental security, to lower
one's head like a submissive bull
to the butcher in the abattoir?"
Lodge deplored use of such
words by the Cuban representa
tive, and evoked applause from
the only partially filled spectators'
gallery with words of friendship
for the Cuban people.
He said no one has ever been
enslaved by the United States
and added: "The United States
wants to be friends with Cuba
and somehow, some day will be
friends again."
But Lodge served notice that
the United States regarded the
principles of the Monroe Doc
trine—recently assailed by So
viet Premier Nikita Khrushchev
as no longer valid—as "fully
alive." He said they 'would be
defended vigorously.
Before the meeting Roa indi
cated to reporters that Cuba
would accept the Argentine-Ecua
dorean resolution if it is approved
by the majority of the council,
This would rule out the possibility
of a Soviet veto.
Roa said President Eisenhower
had described the present leaders
of Cuba as "traitors to the ideals
of the revolution."
