CONGO AND U. S.
PROMOTE TRADE
Uranium Deposits Pro
mote Congo Trade
With U. S.
By LEROY KELLER
United Press Staff Correspondent
LEOPOLDVILLE, Belgian Con
go. (U.R)—The United States is num
ber one customer today of the
booming Belgian Congo, according
to Deputy Governor General Leon
Petillon.
All of the uranium production of
the rich Katanga district and
about sixtq" per cent of the on
go’s total production of cop
per, tin, cobalt, tungsten, radium
and palm nut oil move across the
ocean to the United States. Like
wise, Petillon added, more than
half of all imports into the Congo
come from the United Strtes.
The United States achieved its
present important position in the
Congo economy during the war,
when it started the uranium pur
chases for the atomic bomb ex
periment. Petillon said the govern
ment hoped to restore Belgium to
the top ■ place it held before the
war.
Uranium Hush-Hush
uranium suu is a mgmy secret
subject in this Central African col
ony, although it is known that
valuable deposits have been dis
covered in Portuguese Angola,
and, according to Prime Minister
Jan Christain Smuts, there is
plenty of it in South Africa.
The present Prosperous Condi
tion of the Congo was brought
about in three stages, Petition
said. Spread across the equator in
the heart of Central Africa, and
possessed of a 4,000-mile-long
river that is navigable in long
sections throughout the year, the
Congo first achieved commercial
importance as a source of rub
ber and ivory. Before that the
river was a highway for slave
traffic.
The second period, under King
Leopold II, brought huge invest
ments of capital into the colony
tor the development of the
mineral and diamond mines.
Today, the Congo has passed
to the third stage, which includes
industrial and agriculture enter
prises. The largest textile manu
facturing company in Africa is lo
cated here. Silk production is ex
tensively cultivated.
Butter, once brought all the way
from New Zealand, now is flown
in from the Lake Kivu plateau re
gion via Sabena Belgian cargo
planes. In the same planes are
sent fresh vegetables grown in the
temperate climate of the interior.
Ivory, once a rich prize for the
jungle adventure, has dwindled
in importance to insignificance.
There has been no elephant
minting since the war, and what
ittle ivory is available comes
from the interior via the natives.
Alcazar is the Spainish (Moor
ish) name for castle.
TRAFFIC IMPERILS
15-24 GROUP
CHICAGO, —(U.fi)— The National
Safety Council finds traffic acci
dents more numerous in the 15 to 24
age group than in any other ex
cept that of persons 65 and over.
In its “Accident Facts,’’ an an
nual statistical yearbook, the coun
cil said there were 34 traffic
deaths among persons 15 to 24
years old per 100,000, population in
1946.
In the 25 to 44 age group, there
were 22 deaths per 100,000, 25 in
the 45 to 64 age group, 12 in the 5
to 14 class and 12 among children
up to four years of age. Fifty
deaths per 100,000 were recorded in
the 65-year and older bracket.
The high death rate among elder
ly persons was attributed to the
fact that many of them die of
traffic injuries a younger person
might survive, and also to the
large number of pedestrians in
that age group.
Dean Of Cameramen
Advocates Color
NEW YORK, —(U.R)— Capt. Ed
ward Steichen, dean of American '
photographers, believes that ulti
mately all photography will be in
color.
Steichen, who had retired, re
turned officially to his lenses re
cently when he became director of
the department of photography at
the Museum of Modern Art.
He said that while camera wiz
ards are producing all kinds of
gadgets, they have paid little at
tention to the development of col
or. He said he could not under
stand why black and white pho
tographers have neglected color.
“When the sky resembles cur
rant jelly it carries us away,” he
said. “But a spectrum beauty isn’t
always character. Look at the soft
ness of those grays in the buildings
across the street, the dull tone of
that fire escape, the subtle hues
of those curtains.
“Catching these, and giving
meaning to them—that would be
camera art.” s
Steichen said his first exhibition
would be news photographs.
“The great thing in photogra
phy,” he said, “is to seize the in
stant of reality and transfer it
imaginatively into drama, laughter
or some feeling that arouses emo
tion..”
YOUNG SOLDIER SELLS
FRIENDS ON ARMY
SANTA FE, N. M. (U.R)—If a sol
dier can take a postman's holi
day, that’s what Pvt. Albertino
Casados is doing.
Here on furlough from Fort Ord,
Cal., 17-year-old Casados is n o t
forgetting the postwar army for a
minute. He hardly had time to
see the hometown sights again be
fore he ushered two friends to the
army recruiting station to enlist.
Two days later, he brought in two
more. After they were signed up,
the eager private told the com
manding officer that two more of
his buddies would be in later.
