NORTHERN CUBAN COAST-The cross locates area off North-
ern Cuban coast where crewmen of the Floridian said two Russian
MIG's attacked 'them. United States jets from Key West (A)
reached the scene later. Cuban forces claimed the jets attacked
a freighter at Isabela de Sagua (B).
DEFENSE POLICY:
Soviets Denounce West
A Alliance Conference
GENEVA W-)-In a slashing attack on United States defense
policy, the Soviet Union charged yesterday that "the button which
can trigger nuclear war has now become a point of attraction to more
eager fingers."
Soviet delegate Semyon K. Tsarapkin referred to West Germany
in a speech to the 17-nation conference denouncing the Atlantic
Alliance plan for a multinational nuclear defense force. "If the West

Colonel Doubts'
TFX Contract
WASHINGTON (MP)-Senate in-
vestigators released yesterday tes-
timony of an Air Force colonel
casting fresh doubt on the Defense
Department's TFX warplane con-
tract award. At the same time,
they made public new claims by a
civilian official further supporting
the decision.
The censored transcript of tes-
timony taken secretly Thursday
from Col. John L. Gregory showed
the officer repudiated statements
he had signed which tended to
support the department decision
turning the $6.5-billion job toward
General Dynamics Corp. of Fort
Worth, Tex.
Gregory told the Senate inves-
tigations subcommittee that he did
an "improvident" thing in signing
statements which constituted a
partial withdrawal of his earlier
endorsement of the designs sub-
mitted by a rival bidder, the Boe-
ing Co. of Seattle, Wash. He fav-
ored Boeing while working on an
evaluation team.
The subcommitte for more than
a month has been trying to de-
termine whether either favoritism
or poor judgment figured in award
of the initial, $28-million contract
by Secretary of Defense Robert S.
McNamara.

German followers of Hitler obtain
these arms and unleash war, they:
will not live one day," Tsarapkin
declared. "Everything will be re-
duced to ashes by thermonuclear
explosions.
Tsarapkin ignored a proposal
made earlier in the session by
United States Anibassador Charles
C. Stelle that a permanent com-
munications line be set up between
the United States and the Soviet
Union to avoid the risk of war by
accident.
Instead, Tsarapkin turned his
wrath on what he called United
States war preparations, declaring
they were at "such a pace that
the danger of nuclear is sharpened
daily."
The Soviet delegate noted acidly
that the NATO project for a fleet
of surface ships armed with nu-
clear weapons was suggested by
Kai-Uwe Von Hassel, the West
German defense minister. He said
NATO was trying to find the best
way to let West Germany have
access to nuclear weapons.
He declared the Soviet Union
could find little reassuring in the
proposed liquidation of United.
States missile bases in Britain,
Italy and Turkey "because these
bases are to be replaced by large
bomber planes."
The United States nuclear sub-
marines, armed with deadly pol-
aris missiles, will begin patroling
the Mediterranean next month.

U.S. To Get
Explanation,
Of.Incident
Martin Condemns
Raids by Expatriates
WASHINGTON (-The latest
Cuban crisis, which had seemed to
be building up to a possible new
Soviet-United States confronta-
tion, cooled off yesterday. The drop
in the tension meter came after
Cuban Prime Minister Fidel Cas-
tro's government said its Russian-
built MIG's "probably fired in er-
ror" on the American cargo ship
Floridian Thursday.
Castro has promised to deliver
an explanation to the United
States on the strafing by his jets
of an American cargo ship, in-
formed sources said last night.
They said Castro had contacted
the Swiss Embassy, which repre-
sents American interests in Ha-
vana. The embassy declined com-
ment.
Hit-and-Run Raids
Assistant Secretary of State Ed-
win M. Martin said last night hit-
and-run raids might well influ-
ence the Russians to drag their
feet on withdrawing troops from
the island.
In a Mutual Radio interview,
Martin, who handles Latin Ameri-
can affairs, re-emphasized the
United States government's disap-
proval of the free-lance forays on
Soviet ships.
Martin said United States in-
vestigations have not yet uncov-
ered where the raids originated.
Refugee Assaults
As for the effect of the refugee
assaults, Martin said. that if they
have any influence on the Krem-
lin "it might well have a negative
influence on the withdrawal" of
Russian soldiers. The Soviets still
have an estimated 13,000 to 14,-
000 military personnel in Cuba.
The raids have brought Ameri-
can-Soviet relations to the point
where Moscow formally demanded
yesterday that Washington foot
the damages for a strike by exile
commandos that crippled the Rus-
sian freighter Baku in the north
Cuban port of Caibarien Tuesday.
Raids Irresponsible
President John F. Kennedy -
whose administration has disavow-
ed such raids as irresponsible, de-
plorable and likely to do more
harm than good-met for an hour
yesterday with a blue ribbon panel
of his National Security Council.
It was believed Cuba was discussed
extensively but there was no im-
mediate announcement.
The Castro government's swift
and pacific explanation for the
passes at the motor ship Floridian
came as a surprise, since Castro
is more known for bellicose state-
ments.
The fast vessel, en route from
Puerto Rico to Miami with a
piggy-back load of food-carrying
refrigerator trucks, was about 20
miles off the north Cuban coast
and about 200 miles from Key
West, when two dark-green MIG's
swooped down. In apparently care-
fully contrived near misses, the
warplanes sprayed cannon shot
close to the bow and stern of the
Floridian.
New Development
Meanwhile, guerrillas are in
action against Prime Minister Fi-
del Castro's forces in all six prov-
inces of Cuba, a refugee who ar-
rived yesterday from Havana re-
ported.
The informant was one of 96
persons, including some Ameri-
cans, who returned aboard a plane
that had flown prisoner ransom
cargo-to Havana. He said the heav-

lest fighting was in Las Villas
and Matanzas Provinces. These re-
gions, in the middle of Cuba, in-
clude the Escambray Mountains,
traditionally the site of guerrilla
activities.

To increase
U.S. Power
WASHINGTON (,-) - Secretaryc
of Defense Robert S. McNamarat
has told Congress the adminis-
tration plans to triple the nation's
nuclear quick-strike arsenal, stif-
fen other defenses and keep call-t
ing the Communists' bluff on dis-
armament.
He said major slashes in thee
administration's $53.7-billion de-
fense budget would jeopardize na-
tional security.
Devastating Retaliation t
He sees the United States head-s
ing into an era in which its nu-t
clear might and that of the So-e
viet Union will mean neither East
nor West could launch an attack
without suffering devastating re-I
taliation.t
"Our objective is defeat of thet
Communists," McNamara said. "I
do not believe we can achieve that
victory by engaging in a strategict
nuclear war."
McNamara spent six days tell-
ing the House Subcommittee ont
Defense Appropriations about pro-
grams and policies while explain-
ing the defense budget for fiscal
year 1964. A censored transcriptl
of his testimony between Feb. 6c
and 13 was released yesterday. <
Personal Views1
"My personal views are that I do
not anticipate any substantial
progress in the field of disarma-
ment until such time as certaina
of the major issues which lie be-I
tween our nation and the Commu-I
nist bloc are resolved," McNamaraI
told the subcommittee. He added:
"It is inconceivable to me that
our armed forces would be reduc-
ed substantially in the near fu-
ture, and I know of no plan in the
near future to reduce the control
of the United States over its arm-
ed forces in any way whatsoever."
He said United States forces for
limitedhwar have been increased
across the board.
"I am completely at a loss to
understand how, in the face of
these facts, anyone could accuse
this government of unilateral dis-
armament," McNamara said.
He said Communist cries for
complete disarmament are noth-
ing but propaganda.
GOP Requests
Cuts M Budget
WASHINGTON ()) - Former
President Dwight D. Eisenhower
said yesterday "we will convict
ourselves of fiscal recklessness"
unless deep cuts are made in Presi-
dent John F. Kennedy's request
for $108 billion in new spending.
The former chief executive thus
threw his prestige behind a Re-
publican drive in Congress to slice
at least $10 billion from the to-
tal. He stressed that neither the
defense nor space programs should
be spared the ax.

Teamsters'
Appeal Fails
On Election
WASHINGTON M)-The Team-
sters Union lost yesterday in an
effort to overturn an election in
which the union sought unsuccess-
fully to take over bargaining rights
for 17,000 Western Electric Co.
communications installers.
Ivan C. McLeod, regional direc-
tor for the National Labor Rela-
tions Board, dismissed in New York
the objections which had been
filed by the teamsters. His action
was announced here.
It was the second straight day
the NLRB has ruled against James'
F. Hoffa's Teamsters Union on
important bargaining rights issues.
Rebel Group
The board itself sustained
Thursday the complaints of a
Teamsters Union rebel group
against an election narrowly won
by Hoffa's organization among
some 8,200 over-the-road Phila-
delphia area truck drivers.
The result of Thursday's deci-
sion is that the NLRB will hold a
new election giving the "Voice of
the Teamsters," the rebel group,
another chance to wrest bargain-
ing rights from the Hoffa forces.
In the Philadelphia case, a new
election was ordered because it
was found that violence and van-
dalism directed against the rebel
group had interfered with fair
balloting. The NLRB itself upheld
a regional director's ruling, from
which the Teamsters had appeal-
ed.
Installers Case
In the case of the Western
Electric installers, McLeod ruled
there was no merit to objections
filed by the Teamsters on the
grounds that the Western Electric
Co. had improperly aided the AFL-
CIO Communications Workers
Union.
The CWA won the Western Elec-
tric balloting last December by a
vote of 11,388 to 4,000 for the
Teamsters.

For the people of Southeast
Asia, learning English is one very
big step towards modernization.
To do this effectively there must
be natives in the several countries
able to teach English in elemen-
tary and secondary schools. Laos
will graduate its first class of Eng-
lish teachers for the lower sec-
ondary schools in June. Five years
ago there was not one Lao teach-
er of English in Laos.
This advancement is due in a
large part to the members of the
University's English Language In-
stitute overseas staff under the
Southeast Asian Regional English
Illinois Reveals
Birth Control
Programming
CHICAGO ()The Illinois Pub-
lic Aid Commission announced
yesterday details of the controver-
sial birth control program for re-
lief recipients that will be started
Monday,
Chairman Arnold H. Maremont
rated the plan as "one of the
most significant public aid meas-
ures ever adopted by any state."
The aid will go to "any recepient
who has a spouse or child and
who requests assistance for family
planning."
It will take the form of devices
or medication or instruction
An unmarried mother or a
mother who isn't living with her
husband could qualify under the
directive.
Roman Catholics, who have at-
tacked the program, have centered
their fire on that provision. Leg-
islation has been proposed in the
Illinois Legislature to limit birth
control aid to married women liv-
ing with their husbands.

SOUTHEAST ASIA:
ELI Aids English Teaching

Project. Since 1958, members of
ELI have been working in Thai-
land and South Vietnam, as well
as in Laos.
Co-Financing
This project has been financed
by the United States and the host
government.
While more than 1000 English
teachers in the three countries
have been trained, the administra-
tion of the program will have to
continue to be provided by outside
sources. .
George E. Luther, University co-
ordinator for SEAREP, said, in is-
suing the project's fourth annual
report recently, one should re-
member English is necessary in
most underdeveloped countries for
economic and technical advance-
ment. It is also important as a
means of obtaining knowledge and
because it is becoming the vehicle
for international communication.
Understanding Ideas
"For the United States, knowl-
edge of English in these countries
determines to a great extentrthe
growth in understanding of our
ideas, ideals and institutions,"
Luther said. English is also essen-
tial to the success of American aid
programs of all types.
As of this fourth annual report,
18 University field staff members
have taken part in the SEAREP
and 12 participants have come to
the University for study. Six are
from Thailand, four from Laos,
and two from Vietnam.
In Laos, the project has made
"an excellent start, especially when
one realizes that there was no or-
ganized English program in the
country," Luther said.
The English Section of the Na-

t
s

McLeod's decision cannot be ap-
pealed to the NLRB here, as was
done in the Philadelphia case, be-
cause the Western Electric elec-
tion was held on a consent basis.
Dismissal of Teamsters' objec-
tions in the Western Electric case
Imeans that the CWA Union is now
legally free to proceed with bar-
gaining for wage increases and
other improvements with the com-
pany under a contract reopening
clause..

An eligible relief recipient wil
sign a form requesting help, an<
will write in the name of the phy-
sician or clinic of her choice.

tional Center of Education of Laos
now has students in the ninth
through the twelfth grades. The
teacher trainees come from all
areas of Laos. Students who com-
plete three years of instruction
at the Center successfully are
awarded Upper Elementary Teach-
ing Certificates. By the summer of
1963, 10-12 teachers should be
ready to teach in lower secondary
schools.
In Thailand, the results have
been "excellent" but the Thai Min-
istry of Education is now consid-
ering the introduction of English
at a lower level in the schools
which will, if the policy is adopted,
immediately create a severe short-
age of teachers.
Forty-seven teachers in the
teacher training colleges during
the year of the report--September
1961-62-attended special three-
month in-service courses held at
the education school. A total of
146 teachers have attended courses
of this type since 1959.
Better Calibre
Luther reported that in Viet-
nam, the calibre of English teach-
ing has been improved and a
sound English program has been
established at the University of
Saigon.
The SEAREP staff helped for-
mulate the English language cur-
riculum for a new in-service, one-
year, five-hours-a-week training
program intended to increase the
quality of junior high school teach-
ing.
Due to pending curriculum
changes at the secondary school
level no workshops were held in
1962 as they had been in previous
years.
