r, JANUARY 9,1963 THE MICHIGAN DAILY VAC'r r v YAt ir, '1R'iKl:N Ishombe Returns, Hints ge Possibilities At Sabota, UN PROJECT: . To Seek End To Cuban Aid Plan UNITED NATIONS WP)-As part of its economic squeeze on Fidel Castro, the United States will demand that the United Nations cancel a project to help build a $3 milliop agricultural experiment station 1; . in Cuba. This was disclosed by United States sources yesterday. These in- formants said UN Ambassador Adlaie E. Stevenson had been instruct- ed to fight right down the line to halt previously approved plans un- _der which the UN special fund K3 would grant $1.1 million for the WJV ld N C project. I ~Rozndup By The Associated Press ROME--The leaders of Italy's four government coalition parties emerged from a long meeting last night in substantial agreement on major points of dispute. Success in ironing out differences meant that Premier Amintore Fanfani's center - left government could count on continued life, with na- tional elections a few months away. WASHINGTON - Relay, the newest United States communica- tions satellite, will broadcast to France today recorded television pictures of last night's official un- veiling of the Mona Lisa. WASHINGTON - The United States countered threats to shoot down more mercy planes in Laos yesterday with a demand that the Communist attacks be stopped and word that the flights will go on. * * * MOSCOW - Outer Mongolia backed the Kremlin yesterday in its ideological battle against Red China, Tass reported. Mongolian party chief Umzhagin Tsedenbal charged the activities of the Com- munist Chinese are an increasing danger to the tworld Communist movement, Tass said. * * * NEW YORK-The stock market responded to a new wave of buying yesterday and rose sharply in heavy trading. Thirty Dow-Jones industrials rose 7.74 to 669.98 while 20 railroads were up 2.09 to 150.52 and 15 utilities up 1.02 to 132.76. The plan was approved in May 1961, but so far it has not been signed and no concrete steps have been taken to carry it out. The United States, which contributes 40 per cent of the mopey spent by the special fund, voted against the grant at the time. Fleeing Technicians - The United States took the posi- tion that the project could not be carried out because of the large number of Cuban agricultural technicians fleeing the country. United States sources said this situation was even more compli- cated now because of Soviet tech- nicians in Cuba. The United States plans were disclosed as a government report in Washington painted a gloomy picture of Cuba's agriculture. The United States Foreign Agricultural Service said Cuban farm produc- tion had dropped 20 per cent since Castro took over. The report added that the food situation in Cuba is the worst in years and may get even worse this year. Stevenson Actions Stevenson was reported ready to make strong representations to former United States industrialist Paul G. Hoffman, head of the spe- cial fund, in an attempt to con- vince him that the project should be canceled, and go before the, special fund's governing council, which meets next week, and con- tinue the fight there if his appeal to Hoffman fails. In other action the United States government is also providing five million pounds of dried milk to be sent to Cuba as part payment for release of prisoners from the Bay of Pigs disaster. As much as 15 million addition- al pounds may be provided. MOISE TSHOMBE ... returns to capital NEW PLANS: Goulart Gains Support Vote In Plebiscite RIO DE JANEIRO ()-Flushed by an overwhelming vote of pub- lic confidence, President Joao Goulart started laying plans yes- terday for a new cabinet to rule with him in the return of a strong presidential system to Brazil. Political opponents warned him against a strong-man takeover in the style of the late dictator Ge- tulio Vargas. Latest unofficial returns from a plebiscite Sunday showed more than 5 million Brazilians voted to throw out a 16-month-old parlia- mentary system of government. The tabulations-about half com- plete-showed one million favored retaining it. j The parliamentary system was inaugurated in September 1961, after the resignation of Janio Quadros as president, to keep full presidential powers from falling into Goulart's hands. Military leaders feared Goulart, then vice- president, was too far left to gov- ern under a presidential system that was comparable to that of the United States. Goulart, will pick a cabinet to replace the present one headed by Prime Minister Hermes Lima, who must resign Jan. 31. Says Dams, Bridges Set To Explode Mining Group Asks Support To End War ELISABETHVILLE W) - Presi- dent Moise Tshombe came home to his United Nations-occupied capital yesterday with a sharp hint that the threat of sabotage still hangs over Katangan mines and utilities. Union Miniere, which owns most of the mines and utilities, agreed with him and appealed for coop- eration to prevent it. "In spite of all the trouble and bloodshed, I am back," Tshombe said in an interview at his presi- dential palace. Very Busyj "My ministers and I have been very busy in Kolwezi preparing the demolition of all industries. In that case Adoula, the UN or we will have lost everything," he added. Adoula is Prime Minister Cyrille Adoula of the central Congo gov- ernment, prospective chief politi- cal beneficiary of the Katanga- Congo reunification plan that UN Secretary-General U Thant pro- poses to have in effect by next Monday. Union Miniere, at least, fully agreed that the sabotage threat exists. Mined Dams The giant copper mining com- pany said Katangan police have mined essential dams and power stations and occupy all its pits and plants in the area of Kolwezi. In statements issued in Brussels and at UN headquarters in New York, it appealed to all responsible parties "to cooperate in measures to prevent further damage" in the 11-day-old war. Coincident with Tshombe's re- turn came news of serious tribal fighting in Kasai province, where the UN Congo command had re- duced its power to swell its task forces in Katanga. The Congolese News Agency, a semiofficial organ, reported in Leo- poldville that at least 370 Congo- lese were killed in a battle between two factions at Kakenge.

To Increase Draft Quotas WASHINGTON (R) -The De- fense Department yesterday asked the drafting of 9,000 men for the Army in March. This is the biggest monthly quo- ta since January 1962, and more than doubles the quotas of recent months. The sharply increased quota was foreshadowed by an Army an- nouncement last November that it would expand its strength by 20,- 000 men through increased draft calls for a six-month period. The higher draft is aimed at building the Army's strength to 980,000 men. The quota for this month and for next stands at 4,000 men. In December, 6,000 were drafted. The biggest previous monthly quota was a year ago when the Ar- my took 15,000 men as part of the Berlin crisis buildup. The Navy, Marine Corps and Air Force do not intend to draw on the draft during March, the Defense Department said. I, TONIGHT at 8 P.M.

" + .": By BARBARA PASH Democratic Sen. Patrick McNa- mara's recently-acquired chair- manship of the Public Works Com- mittee will not make much dif- ference in the committee's func- tioning or for Michigan, Prof. George Peek of the political sci- ence department noted yesterday. McNamara acquired the chair- manship as the second in seniority following the former chairman, Sen. Robert Kerr (D-Okla), who died recently. "Kerr was valuable to the pres- ent administration because he was second in seniority on the Finance Committee and it was in this ca- pacity that he was supposed to aid President John F. Kennedy with the tax reform. Sen. Harry Byrd (D-Va), chairman of that com- mittee now, is against the reform," he explained. The Public Works Committee is not as crucial a committee as the Finance or Appropriations Com- mittees are considered to be. "In fact, it is really one of the lesser committees of the Senate," Peek continued. Rivers, Harbors The Public Works Committee mandate states that its purpose is to concern itself with rivers, har- bors and water pollution, as the most important of its duties. "The committee passes out a few favors concerning bridges, dams and others, but most of this has already been decided before it gets to the Public Works Committee. The projects must have appropria- tions and the Appropriations Com- mittee decides this," he said. The major issues for Congress this year are aid to education, Medicare, tax reforms and appro- priations for the Agency for In- ternational Development. None of these come within the jurisdiction of the Public Works Committee. Labor, Welfare "However, McNamara's import- ant position is that of being second in seniority on the Labor and Pub- lic Welfare Committee," Peek ob- served. This committee, headed by Sen. Lister Hill (D-Ala), is concerned with all matters regarding labor- management relations, w a g e s, hours, labor disputes and educa- tion and hospitalization (under public welfare). "To have a senator from Michi- gan as chairman of this commit- tee would be advantageous. This is, obviously, a more powerful position than the Public Works Commit- tee," he remarked.
