Adoula certainly was not disposed toward the left or toward the Communist hegemony. At the same time that our Government and the U.N. originated a deluge of antiTTshombe and antiKatanga propa-. ganda. our Governments treatment of Michele Struelens.. the representative of Tshombe in this country since 1960. is likewise unstatesmanlike and unAmerican in the extreme. The recent Senate Judiciary Committee report. dated last August. and withheld from public distribution for months at State Department insistence. clearly shows that State "used" Struelens on dangerous missions into the Congo as long as it suited itspurposes. then obtained Struelens visa under questionable circumstances. and. shortly before the current military operations against Tshombe. moved summarily. with assist from the Justice Department. to deport him. In marked contrast to this highhandedness. and at the same time. felons and racketeers who are much more susceptible and vulnerable to deportation. are permitted to set up legal devices that enable them to remain in this country indefinitely. In the Congo itself. complaints are numerous and vehement from newspaper correspondents that they have extreme. and frequently insurmountable. difficulty in filing objective accounts of the United Nations military operations against Katanga. Action of the Congress in the past session. with the passage of legislation to purchase United Nations bonds. shows the administrations determination to bail out United Nations financial deficits. brought about by nonpayment by other nations of its assessmentsand thus establishes. for our country. at least. the power to tax in behalf of the United Nations.
