Indian saboteurs. The American agreement to take in these East Indians is seen by many countries of the world as being too little since Canada has agreed to take tip to 6,000 out of the estimated 40,000 left of the Black Asians who refused to repractiale to their original homes in India. Britain, the ultimate respon- sibility holders for the displac- ed Indians, has the task of ab- sorbing an influx of unskilled labor in Its already highly +m- employed island of decadence.

Idi Amin for the first time. The ambassador quickly sent his impressions to WVashington in a confidential cable. While his opinion of the Uganda ruler was low, the ambassador urged the U.S. gov- ernment to try not to antagonize him. "Not antagonizing Amin" has been the hallmark of U.S. policy toward Amin. not only since the arrival of hielady, but long before, in the view of many outsiders. - The United States has stuck to this policy even though Americans have been abused far more by Amin's sol- diers than any other group of foreigners in Uganda except Asians with British passports. . Since Amin took power by coup in January, 1971, three Americans-a journalist, a university lecturer, and a Peace Corps trainee-have been killed, one Peace Corps trainee wounded, the wife of a U.S. diplo- mat molested and almost raped, sev- eral Americans thrown in jail with- out cause, and numerous American tourists searched and roughed up. The response to this has been a helpless wringing of the hands, a few mild attempts at pro- test and a furious expenditure of energy, particularly by Melady, to try to prevent U.S. readers from finding out just how badly Ameri- cans have been treated in Uganda. The rationale for all this has been concern for the safety of almost a thousand Americans who live in Uganda. U.S. officials insist that if the United States offended Amin in some way, the erratic general might go into a rage and harm the Ameri- eons there. But the practical result of the pol- icy has been to hide from the Ameri- can public just how much security has deteriorated in Uganda. Nothing would drive that home to Americans like an outcry from Washington. Moreover, it can be argued that the policy has hurt more Americans than it has saved. Keeping quiet about the treatment of tourists, for example, has only trapped more tourists into entering Uganda and being mistreated by soldiers. Stern talk and public protest might be a up the case of the Ameri- cans. This sounded so incredi- ble that some newsmen assumed Ferguson, fear- in the embassy phones were tapped. simply did not want to discuss the matter by telephone. A few days later in Kampala. however. Fergu- son confirmed what he had said by telephone. Amin had called Ferguson and the Chinese charge d'affaires together to an- nounce Uganda's approval of Mr. Nixon's visit to Chi- na. Ferguson believed this was not the right time to bring up the case of Stroh and Siedle. Ferguson finally d i d meet with Amin two weeks after the disappearance. By this time, it was clear that Stroh and"Siedle were dead. Pressured by the Stroh family, which owns a brewery in -Michigan and h a s important political connections, the State De- partment began a cam- paign of petering Uganda officials about the case. The matter was raised whenever an important Ugandan official came to Washington. Briton Meads Inquiry In response to all this, Amin agreed to an official inquiry. After s e v e r a l false starts, a commission finally did complete its in- quiry. The commission was led by a former Bri- tish judge of the Uganda Nigh Court-Justice Da- vid Jeffreys .Jones-who was frightened enough to leave Uganda and mail his report from outside. .I o n e s concluded that Ugandan soldiers of the Simba (Swahili for lion) Battalion at Mbarara had murdered Stroh and Sied- le. The government of Uganda, in a white paper accompanying the report , told newsmen in Nairobi last J u I y, agreed t h a t better protection to Americans than by phone that he had seen Stroh and Siedle had been The chronological record, pieced together from public and private sources, both in Washington and East Africa. tell; the full story of how the U.S. government has react- ed to a tyrant in a little country in a part of the world that the United States usually ignores. The first and most serious injury to Americans came in early July, 1.971, when soldiers at Mharara Bar- racks in southwest Uganda killed Nicholas Stroh. Z.3, and 11ohert. L. Siedle, 46. Stroll, a free-lance jour- nalist, and Siedle. a lecturer at Ma- kcrere University, and formerly on the University of Miami, Fla., fac- ulty, were investigating reports of a tribal massacre within the bar- racks. Stroh and Siedle were probably killed Friday, July Q. The L.S. Embassy did not know they had been taken until the next day. U.S. officials could not have prevented the murders. A political appointee, Clarence Clyde }'erg eson Jr., was ambassador a: the time. Ferguson is now deputy assistant secretary of state for African affairs. Ferguson decided that the best way to free Stroh and Sicdle unharmed was to ma' :e little fuss about it. For that reason, no embas- sy officer vas sent to Mba- rara. Later, Ferguson ex- plained that he feared that Col. AV. F. Ali. commander of the barracks, might pa- nic at the arrival of a U.S. official and kill the de- tained Americans. Consul Given Job In the meantime. Fergu- son assigned a relatively junior officer, Consul Phi- lip Klein, to try to contact the Uganda government about the missing Ameri- cans. This was done de- spite the conviction of ex- perienced diplomats that African governments do not take a foreign protest or concern seriously un- less it comes from the top.
