When they were released after a few hours' detention, the U.N. spokesman said, one of the men had a broken arm.

The incident was another of the isolated outbreaks of violence clouding the atmosphere of the Congo following the death of exPremier Patrice Lumumba, announced Monday. A company of Congolese soldiers appeared yesterday at the airport in Stanleyville, the Lumumba stronghold, insisting that a plane full of Belgian paratroopers was about to land. Three Belgian priests were reported attacked by small bands of Lumumba partisans in the African sector of Leopoldville Wednesday night. One of them, identified as Father Joseph Stulens, was overpowered by three tribesmen and knifed.

M. Abney, Melbourne, two brothers, W. M. Lockerby, Valdosta, and K. E.

News of her death is the cause of much genuine sorrow in the community where she was highly regarded. -U. S. Pumping Continued from Page touched off by questions or by his replies. Kennedy had this to say on other matters: Rocket Boosters--The Soviet Union is ahead of the United States in development of superboosters capable of hurling the Soviets' Venus-bound vehicle into space, and this "is a matter of great concern." While indications are, the President added, that the Soviet Union will remain ahead in this field for some time unless there is a U.

S. scientific through, "we have sufficiently large boosters to protect us militarily." Cuba-Obviously alluding to the Eisenhower administration, Kennedy said this government probably miscalculated in assessing the Castro regime in Cuba." "But," he added, "I have no evidence that anyone did it out of any motive but to serve the United States." Soviet Union--Despite current tension over Congo, Kennedy expressed hope "real progress can be made this year" toward improvement of Soviet-American relations. He called anew for cooperation in peaceful ventures rather than "differing on matters which carry with them such hazards." El Salvador Kennedy announced the United States has extended diplomatic recognition to the three-week-old government of El Salvador. Burke--Kennedy said he now is "happier than ever" about his policy of requiring advance clearance of national defense statements and speeches made by government officials. The President made that remark--and drew another round of laughter in discussing sharp comment on SovietAmerican relations in an interview granted by Adm.

Arleigh Burke, chief of naval operations. The interview occurred, Kennedy said, on Jan. 12-eight days before the new administration took office. -No Conflict Continued From Page 1 the teachers will get a raise of The visit of a committee delegation to the governor's office followed the second appearance of State School Supt. Claude Purcell before the committee.

The Education Department's $176 million is the largest single item in Vandiver's proposed bill. Some committee members have expressed the opinion that the Education Department could shift some of that $176 million to provide part of the teacher pay raise. Purcell was asked if the committee had requested' him to find money for teachers within his budget, and he replied, "Not beyond our ability." The superintendent said he was asked to go over his budget fig. ures in detail once more and that the committee explored the possibility of using part of a fund set aside for financing future school bond issues to give teachers a raise. -Negro Pastor Continued from Page 1 1,500 attended the rally, the largest crowd to attend a protest meeting in recent times here.

The Rev. Martin Luther King Negro integration leader, said he didn't know if he would make it to the Fulton County jail meeting or not, since he was scheduled to leave town. King said Georgia's anti-trespass law was being administered unjustly and that the students and ministers were justified in violating any law they believe to be unjust. "The jail without bail movement dramatizes the injustices that Negroes undergo in the ed States," King said, adding that they are helping to avoid a long, costly court battle to get the antitrespass law struck down. "It would cost millions of dollars if we posted bail for every student," he said.

000 Several in the crowd were knocked down before it was dispersed. Later at a street meeting in Harlem a number of speakers called for unity among Negro nationalist groups. Among them was Benjamin Davis Negro national secretary of the Communist party and a former New York City councilman. In Washington Wednesday, police hauled away 25 Negro demonstrators after they had yelled for half an hour and had thrown snowballs and eggs at the Belgian embassy. They were protestting the slaying of Lumumba, former.

Congo premier. Officials said Communists stirred up the disorder. The picketing which started outside United Nations headquarters here after the wild demonstration in the Security Council chamber appeared to be dominated by members of the United African Nationalist Movement. and their sympathizers. They turned away white persons who wanted to join the picketing.

And when Davis tried to join, they also turned him away. Davis later joined a group of largely white pickets on a nearby street. Mounted and foot patrolmen of the city police swung into action snowballs at U.N, guards. Three Negroes were arrested and were given suspended sentences when they pleaded guilty in court to charges of disorderly conduct. Congo Congo Continued from Page 1 rin he would not resign.

They were the United States, Turkey, Nationalist China, France, Chile and Britain. Since any resolution needs seven votes for adoption, their stand doomed a Soviet resolution to have the council call for Hammarskjold's dismissal as "a participant in and organizer of "the killing of Patrice Lumumba, deposed premier of the Congo. Zorin introduced the resolution Wednesday, following up a statement by his government that it would no longer recognize or deal with Hammarskjold, as secretarygeneral Soviets said, had Lumumba's blood on his hands. The resolution also sought sanctions against Belgium, the arrest of anti-Lumumba Congolese leaders, disarming of their troops, ouster of all Belgians from the Congo and the ending of U.N. opera- MRS.

Tragic Job Of Identifying Jet Crash Victims Begins BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) American and Belgian officials today began the tragic task of trying to identify 73 burned and shattered bodies, victims of Wednesday's plane disaster.

Among the rows of blanket-covered corpses were the 18 members of the U.S. team headed for the world figure skating championships and 32 other Americans. All were killed as the Sabena Belgian Airlines Boeing 707 jet winging in from New York dived into the back yard of a small farm three miles from Brussels airport. The bodies lay under blue blankets in an improvised Chapel of Rest in the main hall of the old Brussels airport building. The task of identifying the bodies fell to the U.S.

consulate. In many cases, only a scrap of harred clothing or a twisted wedding ring could serve as clues. Whether the bodies will be shipped back to the United States or not depends on the wishes of relatives. The consulate expects will be several days before everything is settled. The Boeing, the first of its type to crash in commercial passenger service, was shattered.

A Belgian government commission started sifting the wreck to try to find the cause. Accounts from airline men who had the plane in view until onds before the crash led them to place first suspicion on a fault in the electrical and hydraulic mechanisms, which work the plane's controls. Ffteen minutes before the crash crash the first officer radioed "all okay." Then the plane spun out. of control and shot upward before diving into the ground.
