Congo: Elammarskjold has informed US officials that
DayaTiarr not be returned to Leopoldville as senior UN repre-
sentative because of the latest demonstrations of Congolese
hostility toward him. Hammarskjold implied that he regarded
the behavior of the Leopoldville government as outrageous and
indicated that there might be a delay in dispatching Dayal's suc-
cessor--U Hla Maung of Burma--to Leopoldville. He stated
that Nehru had been informed and had agreed to recall Dayal
to Indi_aj
ahe Leopoldville government will probably regard Hammar-
skjold's decision as a victory, which will strengthen its hand in
dealing with other Congolese factions. Several reports indicate
that the Leopoldville government is favorably disposed toward
negotiations with Katanga, which recently has indicated its will-
ingness to discuss narticination in a Congo federation as desired
by Kasavubu.

Afghanistan-Pakistan: Pakistan Air Force planes continue
to bomb hostile concentrations in Pakistan near the Afghan bor-
der.
Pakistan con-
tinues to be confident of its ability to handle the situation in the
border area following the 20 May attacks, which were apparently
0 k
launched by Afghan special forces disguised as tribesmen and
supported by dissident local tribesmen. Kabul continues to deny
that its forces were directly involved in the 20 May attacks, at-
tributing these entirely to local Pushtoon tribesmen resisting
Pakistani GovernTent "oppression,"
