He unveiled the plan in a television speech after signing a fish- ing treaty with Soviet Fisheries Minister A. A. Ishkov. He said the Russians will use the port under a 10-year contract "which surely will continue much longer than 10 years." As outlined by the prime minister, part of the cost will be financed by the Soviet Union, but the port will be built by Cuban labor with Cuban materials. Cuba will be > BERLIN TENSION: Western Notes Accuse USSR COMMUNIST THREAT: _<, , Taylor Explains Need To Restore Aid Cuts WASHINGTON ()-Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor said yesterday that 4urbing the Communist threat to South Viet Nam and the entire Far East hinges in part on restoring cuts made in President John F. Ken- nedy's foreign aid bill. Taylor, who becomes chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff next week, spoke out in testimony before the Senate Appropriations Com- mittee while Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey (D-Minn) was reporting the ---aid legislation is in serious trou- ble. I ANDREI GROMYKO ...meets with Rusk U.S., USSR' Fail To Agree On Key Issues UNITED NATIONS (P)-United States Secretary of State Dean Rusk and Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko met for more than three hours yesterday but apparently failed to come to grips on the vital issues of Berlin and Cuba. It was the first meeting of the two foreign ministers since the conference in Laos in Geneva last July. It is expected they will meet again in New York, but no date has been set. Robert Manning, assistant secre- tary. of state for public affairs, who briefed newsmen on the meet- ing, said that only Laos and a nu- clear test ban were discussed-and that both subjects had been brought up by Rusk. Cuba, Berlin Asked specifically if Cuba and Berlin were discussed, Manning re- plied in the negative. "The subjects were not brought up," he said. He said that the United States is undertaking a military with- drawal from Laos as a result of the agreement reached in Geneva, and presumably this was touched upon. On the nuclear test issue the United States has proposed a ban on tests in the atmosphere and under water which would not be subject to inspection. No Indication Manning gave no indication of Gromyko's attitude on that pro- posal, which has not been accepted by the Soviet Union. "Matters of general interest, in- cluding the work of the General Assembly, were discussed," Gro- myko told reporters. Humphrey, assistant S e n a t e Democratic leader, told reporters after the weekly White House con- ference of Kennedy and party leaders that winning substantial increases in the bill will be "the toughest fight we have" in the closing days of the session. Chop Funds The House, last week, chopped $1.124 billion from the $4.754 bil- lion in foreign aid funds authoriz- ed in a previous bill. Humphrey, noting this, said part of the difficulty stemmed from House accusations that the Sen- ate always ups its appropriations measures. "Senators are justifiably tired of being accused of being spenders," he declared. "If the committee makes a substantial restoration of the House cut, we'll have the fight of our lives to sustain it on the Senate floor." Taylor, just back from a tour of Asian trouble spots, told re- porters after the closed commit- tee session that he attributed re- cent progress against Communist forces in South Viet Nam largely to effective use of foreign aid funds. 'Turn For Worse' He said if the House cuts stand, "it could turn for the worse." These military and economic fundssTaylor said he assured the committee, "are essential for the deterrence of the military strength represented by Red China and to resist the subversive insurgency" of the type that is found in Laos, South Viet Nam and to some ex- tent in Thailand. W. Averell Harriman, assistant secretary of state for Far Eastern affairs, accompanied Taylor to the committee meeting. He said it was "inconceivable" that the United States should re- duce its aid to South Viet Nam, where a war is under way, and to other areas under Red pressure like South Korea and Thailand. The Senate Appropriations Com- mittee plans to begin drafting the bill Thursday., ,Soviets Blast Nuclear Device WASHINGTON (P)--The Soviet Union exploded the second largest nuclear device in its current test series yesterday, the Atomic Ener- gy Commission announced last night. The blast, triggered in the at- mosphere in the Siberian Novaya Republicans Unanimously Oppose Act Measure Denounced As Political Bribe WASHINGTON (P)-The Senate ignored a barrage of sharp-tongued denunciation of the compromise farm bill yesterday and Passed it 52 to 41, with the Republicans vot- ing solidly against it. The action sent the measure to President John F. Kennedy, who is expected to sign it even though it contains only about half the au- thority he asked to control grain surpluses. Congress was put on no- tice that the Administration will be back next year with a new re- quest aimed at putting grain sup- plies in balance. All 34 Republicans who voted on the proposal opposed the bill, and were joined by 7 Democrats. But the Administration's half-way Senate victory was by a more com- fortable margin than the hairline five votes by which the legisla- tion squeezed through the House last week. 'Monstrosity' In five hours of debate, the bill was denounced as worse than no bill at all, a monstrosity, almost diabolically conceived, a one-year political bribe for a select group of feed grain and wheat farmers and costly. Sen. Bourke B. Hickenlooper (R- Iowa), aiming his words at the housewife, said the measure's wheat provisions would raise the price of flour and bread to con- sumers. 'Good Bill' Sen. Allen J. Ellender (D-La), chairman of the Senate Agricul- ture Committee, and Assistant Democratic Leader Hubert H. Humphrey (D-Minn), led the forc- es defending the measure- compensated by additional Rus-! sian food shipments. Soviet Credit Credit from the Soviet Union will finance the purchase of port machinery. Cuban workers will operate the port and its ownership will be vested in Cuba. Without giving a date for the ground-breaking, Castro said the facilities will make unnecessary the trips Soviet trawlers now make to Eastern European ports for maintenance and overhaul. A small flotilla of Russian trawl- ers, equipped with refrigerated units and electronic detection equipment, arrived in Havana in the summer. Instruct Cubans It was reported that the Soviet crews would instruct Cubans in operation of the vessels and that the flotilla ultimately would be- come the property of the Cuban government. USSR Rejects Nuclear PlanI GENEVA (M)-The Soviet Union again rejected yesterday an Amer- ican-British proposal for banning nuclear weapons tests in the at- mosphere, underwater and in space. Seymon K. Tsarapkin, Soviet delegate in the three-power nu- clear test ban subcommittee, told his Western colleagues the West- ern proposal was "a step in the right direction," but was accept- able to his government only if the United States and Britain com- mitted themselves to stop under- ground tests as well. Cites Rights To Action' Against Reds UNITED NATIONS ()-A Cen- tral American foreign minister warned Cuba and the Soviet Union yesterday that the countries of the American hemisphere have the right to take "every measure and action" if Cuba tries to export Communism to its fiighbors. Without naming either country, Galileo Solis, Panama's foreign minister, told the 108-nation UN General Assembly "establishment of a Communist government in any country puts it necessarily outside the inter-American system." This applied not only to armed intervention 'but to alien econom- ic, ideological or doctrinary pene- tration, he said. He asserted that by itself es- tablishment of a Communist gov- ernment does not constitute a dan- ger either for domestic or world peace "if that government limits itself to exist within its own fron- tiers with the approval and ac- ceptance of its own people, freely expressed, without pressures or fear." Then he added that he did not consider it a danger "if such gov- ernment does not organize cam- paigns or movements of propagan- da, infiltration, subversion or of any other kind to undermine, weaken or upset the system of rep- resentative democracy of the oth- er inter-American countries or to threaten their security or their existence. iX Prices cials of government and the labor movement. *' * * ST.

Sponsors concede they fear a presidential veto. Senate approval is expected. WASHINGTON ()-The West- ern powers accused the Soviet Un- ion yesterday of showing a "de- sire to maintain tension in Berlin" and to "distract attention from the brutal activities of the East German regime." Notes replying to a Soviet com- munication of Sept. 5 were deliv- ered in Moscow yesterday. The State Department said those from Britain and France were identical to that of the United States. Bearing particularly on the points of the Soviet rejection of four-power talks on Berlin and Kremlin accusations of Western provocations in the German city, the United States note said it is "manifestly unreasonable" for the Soviet government to accuse the United States of fomenting trou- ble in Berlin and to turn down Western appeals for a four-power conference. Heavy Responsibility "In opposing such a discussion of the situation in Berlin the So- viet government must bear a heavy responsibility and evidence thereby its desire to maintain ten- sion in Berlin," the note went on. As for incidents in the divided city, the note to Moscow said: "The Soviet note ignores the fact that the tensions in Berlin are due to the wall which divides the city and to the brutality of the East German regime toward its inhabi- tants. "Both are the responsibility of the Soviet government." The Allies' note rejected Soviet charges that they are stirring up trouble in the beleaguered city. Council Notes Bias Effects On Economy WASHINGTON (P) - President John F. Kennedy's Council of Economic Advisers estimated yes- terday the elimination of racial discrimination in employment might increase the gross national product-the value of all goods and services produced-by about $13 billion annually. And if non-whites had the same educational level as whites, and if the economy fullyused their edu- cation, the increase might amount to $17 billion annually, the coun- cil said. The council included the esti- mates in a report prepared for the Joint Economic Committee of Congress. It was drafted in response to questioning of ChairmanWalter jW. Heller and other council mem- bers during this year's hearing on the President's Economic Report. The council called its estimates "at the best tentative and approx- imate" but said it regarded the fig- ures as roughly correct. Hear Dr. Otto Graf, Chairman of the Honor's Program speak on IBSEN'S "GHOSTS." Sunday, Sept. 30 8:00 P M UNION BALLROOM The text of the American note follows: "The government of the United States regrets that the Soviet note of Sept. 5 does not attempt to deal with the points raised in the United States notes of Aug. 24 and 27. "The United states government rejects the allegations contained din theSoviet note, which seemed designed only to distract atten- tion from the brutal activities of the East German regime. "It is unfortunate, to say the least, that the Soviet government should say in its note that 'the question is not one of discussing incidents and consultations.' "It is manifestly unreasonable for the Soviet government to ac- cuse the United States government of various activities in Berlin and to refuse to discuss the situation there, as the United States has proposed in its notes of June 25, Aug. 24, and Aug. 27. "In opposing such a discussion of the situation in Berlin, the So- viet government must bear a heavy responsibility and evidences there- by its desire to maintain tension in Berlin." Medical Costs Remain Stable WASHINGTON (M - Medical care costs did not increase in August for the first month in more than eight years as over-all living costs also remained steady. The Labor Department report- ed yesterday its consumers price index remained unchanged in Au- gust at the same record level set in July. This is 105.5 per cent of the 1957-59 average, or 1.2 per cent higher than a year ago (on the 1947-49 base, the August in- dex was 129.4).
