(AP. Wirephoto) FOR VALOR IN THE CONGO Vanier Decorates Three Canadians OTTAWA (CP)--An ture at Government Tuesday was a matter of pride for Canadians but also a bitter reminder of what might have been. As the United Nations post- poned a showdown brought on by a financial crisis over UN peace-keeping costs, Governor- General Vanier pinned high awards on the chests of three Canadian soldiers who had served the UN well in The gZ0. It was the UN's expensive investi- House Congo operation which made the. world organization's finan- cial crisis worse. For lack of funds, the UN had to reduce and then withdraw its large mil- itary force from The Congo this year. Canadian servicemen were among the last to leave in June. Last January, when the Con- golese rebels opened their reign of terror as the UN force melted away, three Canadian soldiers aided in the rescue of some 30 white missionaries and Congolese students. Work Resumes At Chrysler After 27 Walked Off Job Lt.-Col. Paul Mayer, 47, of Ot- tawa, a sometime poet in off- duty hours, and Sgt. J. A. Leonce Lessard, 41, of Quebec City, a member of the Royal 22nd Regiment, repeatedly risked hostile spears, arrows and guns to run helicopter res- cue missions. RECEIVE MEDAL Tuesday they received from Gen. Vanier the George Medal, second highest peacetime award for valor in the Commonwealth. Brig.

The question being asked Tuesday--and there could be no answer--was: Could the Stan- leyville horror have been pre- vented if the UN, with men like Mayer, Lessard and Dextraze, had still been on the job in The Congo? Two Canadian missionaries have been butchered there and several others are still missing. There has not been any talk here about the possibility of a UN force going back to The Congo, an indication of the ex- tent of the dismay with which government officials regard the chances of collective UN agree- ment on peace-keeping. UN Secretary - General U Thant said in his annual report, published Nov. 20, that as soon as the UN force withdrew from The Congo "'some of our worst fears for The Congo began to be realized." WINS AWARD OTTAWA (CP)--Chief Petty Officer Paul Martin of Montreal has been awarded $1,730 for sug- gesting improvements in sub- marine detection by navy air- craft, defence headquarters said today. The 39-year-old naval airman 'received this year's highest award given to the By HAROLD MORRISON Canadian Press Staff Writer Various reasons are given why the joint United States- rescue operation in The Congo suddenly was halted, al- though hundreds of white per- sons are ¢till trapped behind rebel lines. The official version is the the operation went as far as it could go; that the remaining white people are held in widely- scattered areas where planes and paratroops would not be effective, It would be up to the Congolese army to do the rest of the job. This has not satisfied British legislators. Scores of them have called on the British govern- ment to use British troops if necessary to protect British lives against butchery. And in Brussels a legislator accused the U.S. of ordering an end to the rescue operation prema- turely. The 'U.S. had acted swiftly to save many lives; yet the thought that persisted among observers is official U.S. en- thusiasm for further action was cooled by an avalanche of Af- rican-Asian criticism. The U.S. had become a party to Western imperialism intervening in a "civil war."

There is no doubt The Congo, rich in resources, had become a battleground of the big pow- ers. The Congolese are gen- erally primitive-and untrained.

But here again the cold war emerges with the Commu- nist side imposing strong oppo- sition. The Soviet Union won't pay its bills for previous UN peace- keeping operations, virtually to throw the Communist bloc indefinitely. The Soviet view appears to and propaganda vehicle. After Thus the thought of Belgi returning to The Congo may have alarmed many Africans. Evidence the Americans were supporting the Belgians may not have helped brighten the Ameri- can image on the Black Contin- ent. Yet it also may be true bit- ter opposition to Western influ- ence in Africa is due in part to the skilful operations of Commu- nist propagandists spreading fear among the insecure new countries that they would be- come victims of Western ex- ploitation. The U.S. stepped back just at the point where there was fear the whole continent could be- come inflamed. And though some of the remaining whites may be rescued by Congolese troops, many of them may perish, victims of the cold war. Undoubtedly much of the current' trouble in The Congo cerned not so much with the cruel fate of innocent whites as Beaten With MONTREAL (CP)--Four Ca- nadian nuns rescued from Con- golese rebels last week arrived here Tuesday and told of the brutal treatment they received '|from their captors.

CREW'S PLIGHT UNKNOWN THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesday, December 2, 1964 3 Til went aground\at Sea Cow Head near Summerside, P.E.I., HALIFAX (CP) -- The coast guard vessel Narwhal today sighted the Liberian freighter Fury aground on Barachois Point on Nova Scotia's eastern shore about 95 miles from here in a wild winter gale. The Narwhal and the ocean- going tug Vigilant were reported on their way to aid the stricken vessel. The condition of the freighter and her 18-man crew was not known. Barachois Point is at the mouth of the St. Mary's River. The freighter earlier was be- lieved to have gone aground on Wedge Island about one - half mile off the coast.
