McNAMARA'S JUDGMENT:
Kennedy Gives Support
To Plane Investigation
WASHINGTON. ()-President John F. Kennedy said yesterday
he thought the Senate investigation of the TFX warplane contract
award was "a good thing" that would prove Secretary of Defense
Robert S. McNamara's judgment was right.
The President strongly supported Secretary McNamara's decision
to award the TFX contract to General Dynamics Corp., rather than
Boeing Co. The Senate hearings have been directed at the belief in

For More Pullouts
WASHINGTON OP) - President
John F. Kennedy estimated yester-
day that Russia has "withdrawn
approximately 3000 troops" from
Cuba in recent weeks. He said he
hopes the Soviets will pull out
more.
Kennedy also underscored at a
news conference a seven-nation
pledge at this week's conference in
Costa Rica to take measures "to
halt the flow of agents, money,
arms and propaganda from Cuba
to Central America."
In the domestic field, the Presi-
dent said he foresees no recession
in 1963 and that "we plan to get
the tax cut" he has proposed to
Congress.
Printers Set
Second Vote
OnM-otion
NEW YORK (.P)-Striking union
printers agreed yesterday to re-
consider a City Hall formula for
ending New York's 104-day news-
paper blackout.
A new vote on once-rejected set-
tlement terms was set for Sunday
morning.
Strike leader Bertram A. Powers
said the new vote was scheduled
at the urgent request of New York
Mayor Robert F. Wagner. Settle-
ment of the printers' strike could
bring the presses of eight closed
daily newspapers back to life next
week, possibly as early as Monday.
Wagner arranged for striking
members of Local 6, AFL-CIO In-
ternational Typographical Union,
to meet in Madison Square Garden
and put city voting machines at
their disposal.
ITU leaders predicted that this
time the printers would accept a
$12.63 a week, two-year contract
package originally outlined by the
mayor. Last Sunday they voted
down the settlement package by a
64-vote margin, 1,621 to 1557.
Since then the strikers have been
under intense pressure from their
own ITU to reconsider. Printers
across the country have been re-
ported increasingly resentful of
the financial burden placed upon
the ITU by the strike.
A sister union of the printers,
the ITU mailers, reached a tenta-
tive contract agreement early yes-
terday with the publishers. Once
it is ratified, their pickets will be
withdrawn, leaving only the print-
ers and the 375-member striking
AFL-CIO Photoengravers Union.
The latter's deadlock with the pub-
RECONSIDERS DECISION:
Berger, Park Discuss End
Of Military Rule in Korea
SEOUL (A -On instructions from Washington, United States
Ambassador Samuel Berger called on strongman Gen. Chung Hee Park
Wednesday and discussed the rising political storm over military rule.
Reports from Washington said Berger asked Park to reconsider his
decision to extend military rule for four years.
Urges President
Only a short time earlier, former Korean Premier Huh Chung,
in an interview, urged President John F. Kennedy to call on Park's

MOSCOW (MP)-The Communist
Party chief of the Virgin Lands
Republic of Kazakhstan says wide-
spread theft, corruption and inef-
ficiency in his bailiwick have re-
sulted in staggering losses to the
state. .
Ismail Yusupov, first secretary
of the Kazakh Republic's party or-
ganization, cited these figures in
a speech Just published by Kaz-
akhstan Pravda:
Neglected Goats
Twenty-nine million sheep and
goats died of starvation and ne-
glect in the last 10 years, or as
many as the republic has at pres-
ent.
More than seven million ,rubles
were stolen from retail trade or-
ganizations last year, an increase
of 1.6 million rubles over 1961.
A total of 18,479 officials were
dismissed from retail trade jobs in
1962 for theft, waste and other
offenses.
Mismanagement
Virgin lands state farms lost
544 million rubles, nearly $600 mil-
lion, in the last three years due to
theft and mismanagement.
Yusupov flaye4 party operatives
for making a mess of the repub-
lic's economy.
He said about 20 per cent of the
republic's industrial enterprises
failed to meet their production
plans.
Incompetent Hacks
Incompetent party hacks are
largely to blame for this state of
affairs, he added.
Yusupov complained about ex-
cessive red tape hampering pro-
duction work. He cited statistical
questionnaires containing 47,000
entries and noted that the Kaz-
akhstan Econimic Council last year
sent out 30,000 separate docu-
ments.
Yusupov told of a local party
secretary who spent most of his
time playing cards for big stakes
with a manager who stole factory
funds to pay off losses. He said
other officials began to follow his
example and "playing cards for
money spread like an epidemic."
"The chief of the Krasnoarmeis-
ky production board, comrade Naz-
arov, was right when he protested:
'when are we supposed to work,
when are we supposed to visit the
farms?'"
Kadar Grants
Full Amnesty
To Hungarians
BUDAPEST (M-Janos Kadar,
Hungarian premier and Commu-
nist Party chief, announced a
sweeping amnesty yesterday for
"political crimes," including parti-
'cipation in the 1956 Hungarian
Revolution.
Although Kadar did not say so,
the amnesty could apply to Josef
Cardinal Mindszenty, Hungary's
Roman Catholic primate, who has
been living in self-mposed exile
in the United States Legation in
Budapest ever since the uprising.
Kadar told Hungary's newly
elected Parliament the amnesty
would be granted to persons who
had been convicted as "counter-
revolutionaries"-the Communist
term for those involved in the
uprising.
some quarters the Boeing bid was
the better of the two.
Meanwhile, Undersecretary of
Defense Roswell L. Gilpatric ac-
knowledged yesterday he was one
of the anonymous Pentagon
spokesmen who aroused senators
by their reported comments on an
investigation of the award of the
TFX warplane contract.
Gilpatric said his statements of
last weekend were not intended to
impugn the fairness ofthe Senate
Investigations Subcommittee or to
convey the idea any of its members
deceived him about the scope of
the inquiry. Nor did he concede
that anyone in the Defense De-
partment made such charges.
Damaging Morale
Sen. Stuart Symington (D-Mo)
said that the temper-arousing in-
quiry was damaging military mor-
ale and he expressed hope it could
be speedily concluded.
The subcommittee chairman,
Sen. John L. McClellan (D-Ark)
replied he intends to continue un-
til all the facts are in and would
call a halt only if the Senate pass-
ed a resolution directing him "to
cease and desist."
Some of the stories publshed
after Gilpatric's briefing said the
anonymous spokesmen claimed the
defense had been entrapped and if
it had known there was to be a
fullscale inquiry the department
would have led off with its top
people instead of allowing the sub-
committee to question military
technicians first.
Gilpatric denied that he has had
any sort of business connections
with General Dynamics Corp. since
he became the Defense Depart-
ment's No. 2 civilian official.

military rule by August.
An embassy spokesman said Ber-
ger requested the meeting with
Park "to discuss the situation on
instructions from his government."
He declined to give details.
After talking with Berger, Park
met with all members of his jun-
ta and Premier Kim Hun-Chul.
The meeting broke up after two
hours with no word of what they.
talked about.
Leave Grimly
Most of the junta members were
grim as they left headquarters.
They declned to answer any ques-
tions from reporters.
There was speculation that Park
was preparing a statement in reply
to Washington and that it would
be made public within two days.
Washington has left no doubt
that it wants Park to keep his
promise of a return to civilian ad-
ministration. The nation is kept
going by massive doses of United
States aid.
Too Busy
In his interview, Huh said he
had tried to get his'views to Ber-
ger but was told the United States
ambassador was too busy.
Huh, leader of one of the main
politcal parties, said Park made.

'Saudi Crash
CUENO, Italy (JP)--Authorities
yesterday opened an inquiry into
the crash of Saudi Arabian King
Ibn Saud's jetliner, which Saud's
subjects have been told was blown
up in a plot to kill the monarch.
Saud was not aboard the Comet

Four of the regular crew were

The jet had just 'taken Saud to
