...series of get-acquainted luncheons in his opulent Waldorf Towers apartment. U.S. Ambassador Adlai Stevenson had hosted every delegation with which the U.S. has diplomatic relations except for the Soviets, and that was only because his Russian counterpart. Valerian Zorin, had stood him up last month when Patrice Lumumba's death was announced. Last week Zorin finally kept the date, and the atmosphere was reportedly ''very cordial...

Soviet Delegate Valerian Zorin seized the chance to press for his blunt resolution calling for Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjold's ouster, and for the U.N.'s exit from the Congo within a month. He was defeated before he started, but plowed doggedly on. Brandishing a magazine showing Hammarskjold and Katanga's Belgium-backed Moise Tshombe together in the same photo (taken as Hammarskjold led the first U.N. troops into Katanga last August), Zorin suggested that it proved that Dag was "allied" with "a Belgian puppet"; this brought weary grins from everyone at the horseshoe table, including Hammarskjold...

Security Council chamber to launch the Russian offensive in the biggest propaganda forum of them all. At 59, Chief Soviet Delegate Zorin had done hatchet jobs before.

He has served as Ambassador to Bonn, more recently...

...Cover) In elegant apartment 42-A of Manhattan's Waldorf Towers, servants were busy setting the long, polished table. U.N. Ambassador Adlai Stevenson was expecting Soviet Delegate Valerian Zorin and ten of his aides for lunch. There would be good food, good wines, and, hopefully, over the coffee and cigars, some quiet, profitable talk. But suddenly a Soviet courier appeared with a scribbled, abrupt message. The lunch was off, apologized Zorin, due to the press of unexpected business...

...loudest laments were for Patrice Lumumba, who, it was rumored, had been mistreated in Colonel Mobutu's army jail, though doctors reported he was only somewhat bruised from the Congolese arrest techniques, which prescribe cuffing and a few kicks in the behind. Russia's Delegate Valerian Zorin introduced a new motion in the Security Council, demanding Lumumba's immediate release from jail and reinstallation as Premier. Moreover, said Zorin, the U.N. should get out of the Congo and let the peace-loving Congolese handle things themselves. Continuing Khrushchev's campaign to destroy Hammarskjold, Zorin said...
