African Conferees - President Gamal Abdel Nasser, left, of the United Arab Republic and Ferhat Abbas, leader of the Algerian nationalist government-in-exile, chat at the reception in the king's palace at Casablanca, Morocco, today. Both are attending the summit meeting of the five African nations in Casablanca. The African leaders reportedly reached a compromise agreement today on Congo policies after shying away from a Nasser proposal to send a joint military force to the aid of deposed premier Patrice Lumumba.
