Pair Os Lumumba Aides Under Arrest

,J£ OP ° LDVILLE - The Congo, (UPD—Deposed Premier Patrice Lumumba’s former righthand man has been arrested on charges of | plotting the attempted assassination of Congolese strongman Col.' Joseph Mobutu, Army sources said today. Former Vice-Premier Antoine Gizenga, 41, a pro - communist, was jailed along with Maurice Mpolo, former minister for youth and sports in the Lumumba government, the sources said. Gizenga’s nationalist opponents claimed he was behind efforts to establish strong communist ties in the Congo. Mpolo, 31, also was charged with participating in the assassination plot, it was reported. He headed the youth movement of Lumumba's National Congolese Movement (MNC) party, and became temporary chief of staff during the upheavals that rocked the Congo shortly after independence was granted by the Belgians. Following his replacement by Colonel Mobutu last month, Mpolp, an ex-policeman, retained his rank of Congolese army colonel. He acted as Lumumba’s spokesman at Camp Leopold 11, the huge army camp on the outskirts of the capital, where more than 7,000 restive Congolese soldiers are the object of a bitter struggle for influence among bickering po-| litical factions. After escaping unharmed from the assassination attempt, Mobutu promptly charged the assassin was picked by Gizenga. Mobutu escaped death when he overpowered Col. Vital Pasaka, an avowed supporter, before he could open fire with his pistol. Lumumba was blamed directly by Mobutu for the unsuccessful assassination attempt. Gizenga and Mpolo are the only leading members of the Lumumba cabinet jailed thus far by the new military regime. Earlier today, disgruntled Congolese soldiers threatened to march with guns on Mobutu’s home to demand more pay. About 100 soldiers were dispersed by gunfire over their heads when they converged on Mobutu’s home Thursday. As some of the soldiers left Camp Leopold 11, where Mobutu’s split-level villa is located, they vowed they would be back today —armed. Another 700 soldiers who started to march on Mobutu’s home Thursday were talked out of it by their officers. Despite his claim to the contrary, the pay march indicated that Mobutu apparently is not in full control of his army. Some of his soldiers are dissatisfied because they feel their pay is insufficient. This was one of the reasons these same soldiers mutinied on July 4 and plunged th Congo into utter chaos. Deposed Premier Patrice Lumumba managed to appease his I troops for some time with vague promises. These promises were never fulfilled and the army went without any pay for two months. In the end, the United Nations l had to foot the bill and on Sept.

10 gave the soldiers two months back pay. But the troops discovered they had not been given a raise promised to them by Lumumba, and Mobutu inherited the problem. Atlas Rocket Is Prepared For Launching CAPE CANAVERAL (UPD—A 98-foot Atlas-Able rocket stood gleaming in spotlights early today. ready for an attempt to send a “Paddlewheel’’ space station orbit around the moon. The federal space agency plans to launch the three-stage rocket between today and Tuesday. This is the “ideal’’ launching period, when the problems of sending a payload over 240,000 miles of space are simplified slightly by a comparatively close aporoach of the moon to earth. The gantry was rolled back early today to leave the silvery Atlas-Able V, shaped liked a softdrink bottle with a straw sticking straight from the top, easily visible on the cape. Scientists were putting the finishing touches on the lunar probe's complicated payload —a ball-shaped package erf instruments which will conduct research during the flight to the moon’s vicinity and while it is in orbit. The payload, weighing nearly 400 pounds, will be aimed at an orbit about 2,000 miles above the moon. America’s last lunar probe attempt, with the first and only other Atlas-Able fired, failed last Thanksgiving Day when the rocket disintegrated seconds after blast-off.
