In an interview published by the Congolese press agency, Mobutu said “aggressors” were holding hostages at the airport and that he had ordered his troops not to reoccupy the field. The hostages, including women and children, were believed to be Europeans preparing to return to Europe for a summer
vacation.

about taxes and a legislative workload that may keep them here until Thanksgiving. The feeling of many members was that Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara would bring back from Vietnam a request for more U. S. troops; that this would trigger a demand from President Johnson for more revenue; and that this in turn would embroil Congress in a late-session wrangle over whether to raise taxes, cut spending, or both. “No escape’* from the fact that taxes will have to be rais-

As for the immediate congressional prospect, House - Senate conferees were greeted with the urgent business of trying to avoid a nationwide railroad strike. They must try to fashion a compromise bill to head off a walkout that has twice been postponed by congressional action.
jQRESIDENT JOHNSON likes to tell this story about a -t fellow-politician from Texas: Tom Connally. Connally was emoting one day on his favorite subject—the limitless beauties of the Lone Star state. He began with the beautiful piney woods of East Texas, rambled on through the bluebonnets and the fertile plains, down through the hill country to the Gulf Coast, then all the way back to the piney woods with all the stops. When it became evident that he intended to repeat the tour, an old skeptic in the back of the hall (possibly an Oklahoman) called out, “The next time you go through Lubbock, how about letting me off?” * * * A magician and his wife, whom he was wont to saw In half as the climax of the act, retired after a full twenty years on ths vaudeville circuit, and opened a dairy outside Los Angeles. Tht sign over the doorway reads, “Milk sold here by the half gaL” * « * * Who says it’s a dull and cheerless world? In a single week ft tireless researcher for the Insider's Newsletter came up with the following scoops: 1. Angered by his dismissal, the warden of a jail in Brazil, let out all the inmates on his last day in office. The police rounded them all up and the count in jail is now increased by one—the former warden. 2. The University of Washington, with an enrollment of more than 26,000 sponsored a panel discussion on student apathy; 20 persons showed up. 3. The latst what-to-do-in-case-of-emergency card, now carried by fun-loving Florida vacationers, reads, “I am not diabetic or ill in any way. Please do not give me first aid or medication.
