live in safety unless Katangese gendarmes are present, and since the UN was expelling
these law enforcement contingents, the missionaries were, in reality, being driven out by
the UN. See O'Brien, p. 162.

President's "foreign aid contingency fund") to help the UN get out of the red ink resulting
from its military operation in the Congo. The UN, in turn, applied some of this money
against the back dues and special assessments of several countries that were in arrears
with payments. Needless to say, most of the countries that received the benefit of this
donation of American tax dollars were those that consistently vote against the United
States. These included Cuba, Yugoslavia, Poland, Albania, and Bulgaria--all of which are
openly Communist--as well as Brazil, Burma, Ghana, Indonesia and many others that are,
for all practical purposes, just as much Soviet satellites as the rest. Naturally the State
Department emphatically denied that this had happened. Through the miracles of
bookkeeping, they explained that the money was used only to pay the costs of the Congo
