NO ROCKET POWER But the United States simply did not possess the rocket power to put up anything as heavy as did the Russians. The powerful Soviet engines were the result of a decision to start developing long-range military missiles shortly after the Sec- ond World War. At that time, big boosters were needed to carry large nu- clear warheads, By the time the U.S. began thinking Seriously about inter- continental missiles, in the early 1950s, testing had reduced the size of the warheads and America concentrated on smaller rockets. In 1958 the United States de- cided to press the new and larger Thor and Atlas rockets into service as space boosters.

"The Congolese in the inte- rior," said Garceau during an) interview here, '"'are hungry and/ gee no prospect of better things. "They know that in Katanga province Tshombe's people are working and earning money and are well-fed. "They consider Tshombe as a great leader who is taking care! of his people. And because the United Nations is doing nothing) for them, their support is going to Tshombe in the hope of a better deal." WITNESSED BLOODSHED Garceau, who witnessed the @emands of the Congolese in 1958 and 1959 for independence from Belgium, the post-inde- pendence riots, bloodshed and flight of Belgian settlers, made this flat prediction: * "Unless the UN does some- thing quickly to improve the conditions the same thing will happen to it and its personnel as happened to the Belgians. They will be driven out. Then the Belgians will be welcomed back, stronger than ever." * The slightly built, plain- apoken teacher said the UN's armed intervention in Katan- ese affairs last Autumn to oust! oreign mercenaries from the army did much to drive the) Congolese generally into Tshom- be's camp. | In the eyes of people in the interior, Tshombe's recent stay| in Leopoldville to negotiate aj reconciliation between his se- jinteri |plains with a smile. ito seek help from the UN for his school, the Kikwit Hospital run by nuns, population now facing famine. manioc crop this year.
