"The Americans were being evacuated along the power line road, but Lonnie went back into the city to get his wife and child. They (the rebels) stopped his car on the road and shot him," Amstutz said. He did not say whether he saw the slaying. Amstutz said another American, identified as Bill Starkey of Boise, was shot by the rebels after the evacuation began.

He said Starkey survived. Like most of the evacuees, the Americans said they saw no one they could identify as Cuban involved in the rebel invasion. The survivors, disheveled by their hasty flight and dazed by the horrors of the past week, were met by anxious relatives, many of them weeping and begging for clues to the whereabouts of those not yet accounted for.

Paratroopers were searching for more whites, dead or alive, officials said. In one small house, 34 corpses lay tumbled over one another in a pile that was knee deep.

One refugee said about 25 corpses were piled up in another house. Young Rejects Carter Claim WASHINGTON (UPI) U.N. Ambassador Andrew Young, despite administration claims to the contrary, said Sunday congressional restrictions do not slow U.S. assistance to Zaire and other nations fighting communist-trained troops in Africa. "I don't believe the president's hands are tied," Young told interviewers on CBS' "Face the Nation." Asked if he favored repeal of the Clark Amendment restricting covert U.S.

activities in Angola, Young replied, "I think there's enough support of the president in this country and the Congress for us to openly do anything we want to do in Africa." Carter complained to congressional leaders last week that restrictions on emergency U.S. assistance to foreign countries bridled the administration's ability to quickly help nations such as Zaire, under attack by Katangese Compiled From Journal Wires KINSHASA, Zaire French and Belgian paratroopers Sunday put an end to the 10-day occupation of Kolwezi by rebels who massacred an estimated 150 whites and retreated with dozens of white hostages. French foreign legionnaires late Saturday stormed a metal factory where 200 rebels had barricaded themselves and were now mopping up the last pockets of resistance, officials said. Meanwhile, in Belgium, survivors of the Kolwezi massacre (the first of whites) flew into Brussels airport Sunday and told of indiscriminate killing and looting by both rebels and Zaire government soldiers high on drugs and alcohol. More than 200 refugees, including women, children and 17 wounded, were aboard the first freedom flight a Sabena DC-10 from the capital of Kinshasa to Belgium's Zaventem Airport.

Two more planes followed Sunday afternoon and twn others were expected overnight. Harold Amstutz and his wife, of Portsmouth, were the only Americans on the first plane. Amstutz, 49, said he worked as a pilot for a mission run by the United Methodist Church. He said another American, Lonnie Glen, 32 of Yerington, was killed by rebels there last week. Glen, the only American still officially unaccounted for, was a security officer for Morrison-Knudsen, a Boise, Idaho, construction firm contracted to build a power line in southern Zaire.
