U.N. & Katanga
Sir:
The blame for Mr. Hammarskjold's tragic death lies entirely on the unfortunate U.N. action in Katanga [Sept. 22], trying to re-incorporate the "secessionist" province.
I am shuddering at the thought that the U.N. may fight us Germans (West) for not joining Ulbricht's Germany (East). A few more moves like the last one in Katanga and the self-respecting nations should start pulling out of the U.N.

Sir:
The U.S. was lucky that there was no United Nations organization in the days when the American colonies started to secede. If there had been such a thing, it very probably would have passed...
