Parliament In Congo Gets Power

KINSHASA. The Congo (AP) President Joseph 1D. Mobutu handed back to parliament Mon day the constitutional powers he

‘stripped from..tt earlier this

year.

‘Mobutu's surprise announce ment was greeted by roaring eheers from legislators jammed into the National Assembly Hal! for the official opening of the third session of "parliament. Mobutu said his cabinet now would be responsible to parlia- ment and its committees.

But, Mobutu said, he as presi- dent would reserve the right to

“'_ eontinue to rule by decree in

eases of emergency.

Mobutu took power in a mili- tary coup Nov. 24. He kept par- ‘Vament in power and promised legislators they would serve out their full five-year terms

When they returned ; from re- cess March 4, Mobutu declared that members had used their” leave to create trouble in the interior. thus forfeiting © their. legislative rights. He declared at the time that he would hence- forth rule by decree, submitting

his. jaws to parliament only as

a jratter of notification. Mobutu said Monday he was “feturning parliament's powers because the government “needs all good will, a collaboration of all vital forces of the nation, and your entire. collaboration."

War With China Possibility Seen

PARIS’ ‘AP)—-A French busi- fess magazine reports that U.S. Defence’ Secretary Robert Me- Namara. acknowledges some possibility of war with China as a result of: the fighting in Viet Nam but feels that the danger is of Chinese making.

McNamara's response to questions is reported by the French magazine Enterprise.

Asked about the risk of war between the United States. and China, McNamara is quoted as saying: -

‘We have done everything hu- manly .possible — both military and diplomatically—to make it unmistakably clear that there is no justification for Communist China, to. involve itself im the war in: Viet Nam. Just as our policy in Viet Nam ‘is based upon a disavowal of any inter- vention to destroy the Hanoi

a ieee the history of militant @ggressive actions by_Commu- nist China, it would be irrespon- sible for me to say that we run no risk of war with China aris- ing from our efforts te defend South Viet Nam from agg sion. But the risk is not ated by our operations in- Nam: it was created by con

For Thant Move

MOSCOW (AP) — The Soviet Tnion has blamed US. involve- ment in Viet Nam as a major cause for U Thant's decision not to seek a second five-year-term as United Nations secretary- general.

Bt also claimed that the world Position of the U.S. is growing more isolated and that this was shown by French President de Gaulle’s “call for ‘the’ United States to fix a U.S. troop-with- drawal date as a prelude _to Viet Nam peace talks.

The two ‘statements, pub- Vished Monday in the official government newspaper I7zvestia. were the Kremlin's first official reaction to Thant’s decision not to seek another term and de

Gaulle’s speech in Cambodia, last Thursday

I7vestia said that the words of!

Thant and de Gaulle represent “a mobilization’on the interna- tional scale of the forces com- ing out against the American aggression.”

In his statement, Thant ex- Pressed concern that the Viet- wamese war could spread into a wider conflict. Rut he did not place the hlame an either side

A US. statement issued later recognized that the war “hangs @ cloud over world affairs.” It ‘added, however. that the U.S desires an early end to the war and is willing to co-operate in héading off the threat of a ma- jor war

President Johnson said In De trait. Monday he will fix = with drawal schedule for US forres as enon as'North Viet Nam fixes one tor. its forces.
