ROLAND F. WAGNER
. Roseburg pianist returns
rectly whether India or R'.d China
is right in the disputed territorial
claims, and has taken no sides on
the issue.
But 35 minutes later he issued a
formal statement saying.
"The questions asked me on thlj
subject seemed to me directed at
the legal rights along th; borders,
and my answers accordingly re
lated only to the legalily of the
rival claims. There is the further
and more important P',:nt that,
whatever may be the nvvils of a
dispute, force must not be used to
settle it. The Chinese Coi.,munit
regime has clearly used i.irce and.
in this respect, is wholly in the
wrong."
In taking this position, Hertcr
put the United States more in line
wilh Indian Prime Minister Neh
ru's policy which calls tor settle
ment by negotiation and condemns
the use of force.
At Issue is 57,000 square miles of
territory which has Ion? been in
controversy as to its real owner
ship although for many years it
has been under Indian administra
tion. Last month Ihe Chinese Commu
nists killed nine members of an
tndian police patrol and captured
10 others in what was described
at the time as a Red Chinese am
bush. Ilerter's statement wss limiloU
to what his associates called the
"moral issue" of the use of fore.

Castro charged that the Plait

States special privileges in Cuba
was tne cniet source ot cuoa s
economic and social ills.
This amendment to the Cubai.
constitution drafted in 1901 and
canceled in 1934 gave the United
States naval bases in Cuba, pro
hibited Cuba having commercial
relations with other nations, and
gave the United States the right to
intervene in Cuban affairs if
American property were endan
gered. The only remnant of it to
day is the U. S. naval base at
Guantanamo.
Castro sharply criticized Amer
ican news agencies and some
American newspapers. A member
of the panel in the TV studio read
a Washington newspaper report
claiming Soviet submarines were
secretly delivering arms to Cuba.
"If wo need arms, we will not
bring them in liko contraband hut
through the open port of Havana
necause tnis is a soverc;,-;n coun
