“Precedent Set By U.N."
(N.Z.P.A.-Reuter —Copyright) NEW YORK, Sept. 14. The “New York Times” said in. a leading article today that the United Nations action in Katanga had set a “precedent of world-wide implications and considerable risk” for the United Nations. It was a "further expansion of Secretary-General Haramarskjold’s concept of the United Nations as a ‘dynamic instrument of Government’,’’ the paper said. "... But everything still depends on the further actions of the United Nations and the central Government.
"Having removed the Tshombe regime, the United Nations must now also eliminate the danger of a takeover by the forces of VicePremier Gizenga of Stanleyville, whose army is apparentry still an independent entity not yet under the control of the central authorities in Leopoldville. The danger of such a take-over is already alarming neighbouring African states.”
