Organize Group To 'Ransom' Prisoners,
By The Associated Press
WASHINGTON - In the face
of some sharp Congressional pro-
tests, a private group organized a
"Tractors for Freedom" committee
yesterday and began negotiating
with Prime Minister Fide' Castro
for the release of more than 1,200
prisoners captured in last month's
Cuban invasion.
Considerable uncertainty devel-
oped over Castro's offer to release.
the prisoners in return for 500
AmericanLmade tractors, however,
when the Cuban radio quoted him
as saying the United States was
taking an insulting attituae to-
ward. his offer to release the cap-
tiyes in return for farm machinery.
He threatened to call the deal
off and punish the captives.,
Nevertheless, the citizens group
set out' to raise the millions need-
ed to buy 500 tractors and an-
npunced it was telegraphing three
conditions to Castro:
Castro will allow a small
group of Americans to go to Ha-
vana to work out details, including
the type of tractors, supply a list
of prisoners to be freed and prom-
ise to release them as tractors
arrive.
Walter Reuther, head of the
United Auto Workers union and
co-chairman of the citizens' com-
mittee, anounced the group was.
cabling Castro it would go ahead
with the deal if the conditions
Were accepted.
Cries of "Communist black-
mail' came from Republican Sens.
Barry Goldwater of Arizona and
Homer Capehart of Indiana.
Capehart said if this country
"yields to Castro's blackmail we'll
be the laughing stock of the
world." He said that instead of
making a deal with- Castro "I'd
have gone to war."
Goldwater told the Senate ,the
United States could not abandon
moral responsibility to t1h3 cap-
tured Cubans but said: "How can
we stand up to Castro :when he
attempts to blackmail us?"

For Congolese
MOSCOW (P)-Antoine Gizen-
ga, head of the Communist-rec-
ognized splinter regime in Stan-
leyville, came out strongly yester-
day against joining other local-
ized power groups in a Congo
federation.
The Soviet news agency Tass
said he assailed the West for work-
ing "to dismember the republic
of the Congo in order to strangle
the Congolese people's aspirations
for omplete feedmprss
frcmlt;fedm"He said in a Stanleyville press
conference that the Western pow-
ers "seek to doom the Congo to
an artificial Balkanization - to a
confederation not justified by any-
thing except the hope of some
monopolies, that, such a division
would enable them to maintain
their control in a number of prov-
inces." -'
SEOUL (MP) - The new military
regime expanded its program of
totalitarian controls yesterday with
a ban on all South Korean politi-c
cal parties and an order for pre-1
broadcast checks on the Voice oft
America.t
At the same time, the cabinetF
of Prime Minister Chang Do-
Young opened formal diplomatic<
contacts with the United States.t
Foreign Minister Kim Hong-Il, ac
retired general, exchanged viewsl
for an hour with United States
Charge D'Affaires Marshal Green.1
What they said was not dis-
closed, but Green is believed to1
have expressed United States hopes:
for early restoration of civilian;
government in Korea, while Kim
doubtless tried to build up rela-
tions with the United States.
Backs Old Regime
Only a week ago Green issued
a statement backing the old elect-
ed government against the coup
staged by Chang and other gen-
erals, who said they acted to wipe
out corruption, install efficient
government and fight Communist
subversion.
Reports of dissension in Chang's
30-member council of colonels and
generals circulated in Seoul, but
little official information filtered
through the most rigid press and
radio controls in South Korea's
history.
The military government's pro-
clamation abolishing political par-
ties as well as social organizations
was a disappointmertt to Koreans
who had hoped that parliamentary
government would be restored in
the near future. There were fears
thiat any future civil government
-promised soon by Chang-might
be some form of "guided demo-
cracy" without free elections.
To Censor 'Voice'
Censorship was extended to
Voice of America news broadcasts
carried by Korean radio stations.
The Voice's Korean-language
broadcasts from Washington
henceforth will be taped and
checked by Korean officials before
being relayed o Korean listeners.
They were banned entirely for a
time last week.
Newspapers were under the
strictest controls. Reporters were
ordered to limit their newsgather-
ing to official releases.
Reds Eclipse
Tool Market
Greater progress and better re-
sults in the manufacturing proc-
esses and equipment of machine
tools by the Russians have eclips-
ed the American machine tool
market in Europe, Prof. Lester V.
Colwell, of the department of
mechanical engineering, said re-
cently.
Colwell stressed that in the
United States no activity regard-
ing quality standards is being done
and consequently the quality of
tools made in the United States is
inferior to that of the Russians,
who spend more time and expend
more efforts in this field..
Senators
Oppose
Bush Plan
Table Motion
On Segregation
WASHINGTON (JP) - Against
the background of racial strife
in Alabama, the Senate yesterday
r e j e c t e d an antisegregation
amendment to the $2.55 billion
aid-to-education bill.
The amendment, proposed by
Sen. Prescott Bush (R - Conn)
would have denied funds to any
state not moving toward full com-
pliance with the Supreme Court
decision outlawing racial segrega-
tion in public schools.
It was tabled by a vote of 61-25.
Fear Effects
The Senate acted after Demo-
cratic leader Mike Mansfield of
Montana told newsmen he hoped
the latest flareup of violence in
the South would not have any
adverse effect on the bill.
On the floor Mansfield urged
defeat of the Bush amendment,
saying its adoption could "only
delay enactment of school legis-
lation."
Sponsors of the bill, many of
them long time civil rights advo-
cates, argued that the issue should
be met in separate legislation and
said they would push for this next
year.
Sens. Joseph S. Clark (D-Pa)
and Wayne Morse (D-Ore) said
the procedure to follow is to
change Senate rules to make it
easier to shut off filibusters, and
then follow through with separ-
ate legislation on school desegre-
gation.
Clark said he is confident such
a bill could pass the Senate next
year if the rules are changed to
permit 60 senators to shut off de-
bate. Mansfield has pledged such
a rules change proposal will be
brought up late in this session,
and renewed this pledge yester-
day.
Bush insisted that a moral is-
sue was involved. He said that, if
his proposal were beaten, federal
funds under the bill would be used
for years to perpetuate segregated
schools.
The Connecticut senator con-
ceded under questioning by Dem-
ocrats he is opposed to the school
aid bill and would vote against it
even if his amendment were in-
cluded.
