"At the moment we don’t j know whether the monster can ‘ be properly helped under the law,” said J. R. Johnstone, chief constable of the County of Inverness. "Everybody accepts that ' something strange lives in the loch, but nobody knows whether it’s an animal or a ' fish or something completely outside our experience.” Experiments Reported Chief Johnstone, a level headed. gray-haired man who has been county police chief for the past 10 years, said that without new legislation his men might not be able to stop adventurers trying to kill or ' catch the creature in danger ous experiments. There haye been reports that a band of young men from England intend to drop home made depth charges into the loch with the aim of forcing the monster to the surface where it can be captured. "Any such nonsense will be stopped before it ever begins,” Chief Johnstone said firmly. “I would welcome real scientific investigations but bombing the monster is out of the question.” Few Sightings As he spoke in an interview in stately Inverness Castle, Loch Ness brooded under a thick fog.

A military committee report urged stronger and more co ordinated Western actiorrfc the 1 field of economic, psychological and ideological warfare. "The Communist offensive in 1 the. economic, psychological and ’ ideological field,” the report 1 said, “has reached dangerous proportions, the more so as i these warfare tactics are closely i co-ordinated, and Western ’ counter-measures to the present : time have been somewhat hap- i hazard and in many cases in sufficient or entirely nonex- ( istent.” ; i . i ’• ■ 1 the monster was around, no one i could see him from the shore. This has been a poor year for the brute. Only about a dozen sightings have been re- : corded in the 24-mile stretch i of water which goes down to great depths of 900 feet in : parts. i Most descriptions roughly co incide on essentials: i The monster is about 30 feet long, with three or more humps 1 on its scaly back, has a lash- 1 ing tail and a little flat head with bulging eyes. It is capable of great speed through the water. Two of the sightings this year . were claimed by a joint scien tific expedition from Oxford 1 and Cambridge Universities. 1 Its conclusion was that the loch “could easily contain some 1 strange and unusual creature, . but irrefutable proof of its ex istence must 'await a future , expedition.” — i i 40 Million Trees 11 Ready for Yule By the Aitocieted Preu ( About 40 million Christmas | trees will brighten the Ameri can holiday season this year, ■ forestry experts predicted to day.

Group UNITED NATIONS, N. Y., Nov. 25 (AP) .—President Jo seph Kasavubu of the Congo was flying home today to pre pare his people for the visit of a political conciliation com mission from the United Na tions. Mr. Kasavubu left New York last night after telling Secre tary General Dag Hammar skjold that he would let him know within a week when he was ready for the commission to come. Mr. Hammarskjold’s 18-na tion Advisory Committee for the Congo agreed to wait for word from Mr. Kasavubu be-i fore deciding on a new date, for making the trip. The commission includes all countries with troops in the 20,000-man United Nations | force in the Congo. Conciliators Delayed The conciliation first planned to leave for the Congo a week ago but ran into delays. When the General Assembly voted Tuesday to seat a dele gation headed by Mr. Kasa vubu, it put off the trip to talk with him first. The commission’s assignment, under a September 20 resolu tion of the General Assembly, is to help Mr. Kasavubu; his rival, deposed Premier Patrice’ Lumumba, and other Congolese political leaders to settle their differences. Mr. Kasavubu told the com mittee the Congolese people were against the commission and advised that the trip be postponed while he prepared them psychologically to accept the group. Persuasion Needed Committeemen said they be lieved Mr. Kasavubu’s main concern was to persuade the Congo’s army commander, Col. Joseph Mobutu, to let the com mission come in. Mr. Kasavubu himself had been suspicious of the commis sion because seven of its mem bers—lndia, Indonesia, Ghana, Guinea, Mali, Morocco and the United Arab Republic favored giving the Congo's U. N. seat to a delegation sent by Mr. Lu mumba.
