A v o i d s --'_J e s r As Aggressor UNITED NATIONS P - The Soviet campaign seeking United Nations condemnation of the United States as an aggressor in Cuba fell flat yesterday. Support mounted instead for' a proposal by Latin American na- tions to let them take the leading role in promoting a peaceful set- tlement of the Cuban situation., Raul Roa, the Cuban foreign minister, reported to the UN, po- litical committee the downing of. a United States military plane after it had bombed Cuba and said this was additional proof of "flagrant" United States interven- tion. But despite Roads angry charges and Soviet bloc denunciations of the United States the committee appeared headed for adoption of a mildly worded Latin-American resolution stressing that the Cub- an crisis is strictly a Western "Hemisphere affair.' The resolution urges members of the Organization of the Ameri- can States to help bring about a peaceful settlement. Ambassador Mario Amadeo of Argentina rejected Soviet bloc charges as interference that could only aggravate existing- tensions. He expressed the hope common sense would prevail and "no new Danzig or Sarejevo will spark the flames of a world conflagration." U. of M.

NEWSMEN CRITICIZE: Spokesman Denies End Of Invasion First Troops Reach Escambry Mountains By The Associated Press SAN JUAN-Anti-Castro forces announced last night a new inva- sion contingent has landed in Cuba. Earlier reports from Havana de- picted Cuban Premier Fidel Cas- tro as having claimed a 'near victory.', The announcement was by a spokesman for the Cuban Demo- cratic Revolutionary Front in Puerto Rico and came in the face of Communist and Castro partisan claims that the anti-Castro re- volt was about to collapse in de- feat on the beaches. The new landing was reported as the Cuban revolutionary council in New York announced that the major portion of its original spearhead of' several hundred men, which set up a beachhead on the south coast early Monday, had reached the Escambray Mountains after fighting off fierce attacks by the forces of Prime Minister Fidel Castro. The council said this force - which evidently abandoned its beachhead on Cochinos Bay-had to contend with "Communist ad- visers" in the Castro force, as well as Soviet-supplied, tanks, artillery and planes. Angrily denouncing earlier claims by Havana radio and Yu- goslav Communist newsmen that the invasion was about to be liqui- dated, the rebel spokesman in Puerto Rico said the invasion was going accordin~g to plan. He said the invasion force di- vided into two columns,' accord- ing to prearrangement, and mov- ed into the mountains and that the invaders received strong sup- port from the Cuban people. The report on the new beach- head came from Tomas Gamba, secretary to War Minister Antonio Verona in the anti-Castro Cuban revolutionary council. Cuba's government insisted last night it would totally crush the island's invasion-borne rebellion within hours. In Washington President John F. Kennedy called for a full cab- inet meeting for today-only the third such meeting in his admin- istration. Force Rebel Attacks Menace Nation, Government By The Associated Press VIENTIANE-The Laotian gov- ernment yesterday called for more foreign aid in fighting pro-Com- munist rebels as major new offen- sives threatened to conquer the small nation and sweep into neigh- boring countries. Foreign Minister Tiao Sopsa- sans received an immediate prom- ise that United States military ad- visers will go into the combat zones. He disclosed that Laos is also considering asking for for- eign troops to stem the rebel at- tacks. See Weakening Position United States embassy sources said the government's position is "steadily weakening" but deflated claims of massive rebel assaults. Washington's decision to send United States advisers into com- bat zones means about 300 civil- ian-dressed American military men who have been instructing royal troops will put on uniforms today' and become a full-fledged military advisory group. Support British Move The State Department also an- nounced that the United States would send more war supplies to the government forces fighting pro-Communist rebels in the Southeast Asian kingdom. United States agreed that the United States action would be contrary to the 1954 Geneva agree- ment. It forbids the establishment of military advisory groups in Laos. But, the officials said, the United States did not sign the agreement. The Soviet Union, which did sign the agreement, has flagrant- ly violated it by delivering arms and personnel to the rebels, they charged.

His recorded statement sent a surprised stir through the court. Eichmann himself seemed affect- ed by what was taking place in court for the first time He took off his earphones through which the court's Hebrew proceedings are translated into German, and seemed to relax in his chair behind the bullet-proof glass in the prisoner's dock. Taped Interrogation The statements were taped in an interrogation by Israeli securi- ty officers after his capture last year. Eichmann insisted he was not the architect of Nazi Germany's. campaign of extermination. "I was in a lower rank than the policy makers and planners. I cannot claim that I had clean hands.

"To date, neither he nor his administration has lived up to his promise." Congress also came in for cri- ticism in the report for the con- tinued withholding of data on House travel expenses, for closed committee hearings, and for the inclusion of what Pulliam called a "secrecy clause" in the medical aid amendment to the Social Se- curity Act. It was disclosed at the board meeting that 11 Soviet newspaper editors will visit the United States in May, in an exchange plan un- der Which several members of the ASNE will visit Russia later, prob- ably in September.
