Guns On Quemoy-Matsu
By WHITNEY SHOEMAKER
HARTRnRn Tnnn f!PiV!..
President Richard M. Nixon stuck
by his Quemoy-Matsu guns today
and sharply criticized Sen. John
F. Kennedy.
"What we need to have is for
him to start thinking before he
talks, and it would be a lot bet
ter for the country if he would,"
Logger Rescues
Frightened Boy
OMAK, Wash. (AP) A husky
logger who lowered himself 75
feet down a rocky cliff rescued
early Monday a frightened boy
whose 12-year-old companion had
fallen to his . death some nine
hours earlier.
Sammy Wahsise, 9, of Athena,
Ore., was rushed to an Omak hos
pital, where a doctor said he had
suffered no ill effects. ,
-Sammy is a student ' at St.
Mary's Mission, east of here on'
tthe Colville Indian Reservation.
Sunday he and another student,
Phillip Ameno of Chelan, Wash.,
got permission from the Jesuit
priests at the mission to go on a
hike to Omak Falls.
When they did not return for
supper, the mission sent out a
search party. The searchers found
the boys about 6 p.m., but Phillip,
was dead. '
Sammy had fallen at about 3
p.m., landing on a ledge about 75
leet from the top of a 150-foot
canyon wall. Then Phillip fell,
tumbling all the way to the bot
tom. ' Sammy was still stranded on
the two feet-wide ledge. A force
of about 15 men and boys, includ
ing priests, sheriff's deputies' and
volunteer firemen, assembled to
rescue him.
By this time it was pitch dark.
It was chilly, but not freezing.
The men at the top of the bluff
tied a rope around a 14-inch-thick
tree. One of the firemen, logger
Keith Ramey of Omak, strapped
himself into the rope and was
lowered away.
"Take it easy Sammy," he told
the boy as he neared the ledge.
"Another six feet and I'll be with
you."
As a volunteer fireman at the
base of the cliff played a search
light on them, Ramey tied a loop
around the boy and they were
hoisted together.
Nixon told a Hartford audience.
"Why can't we have a moratori
um on any more rash, immature
statements on something that is
going to encourage the Commu
nists any place in the world?" he
asked.
The Republican candidate for
president pounded away at the is
sue of the offshore China islands,
saying surrender of any territory
to the Communists would lead to
defeat.
And he said the American peo
ple don't want "a rash immature
man" changing policies of the Ei
senhower administration.
Nixon again criticized Kennedy,
his Democratic rival for the presi
dency, for wishing as he .put it
to express regrets to Soviet Prem
ier Khrushchev after the U2 inci
dent. "Every time you encourage a
Communist blackmailer to get
what he wants." Nixon told an en
thusiastic audience, "you don't
get peace, you only go a step
further on the road to war."
Kennedy had said Sunday night
that his position corresponded
pretty well with the administra
tion's on Quemoy and Matsu, and
added he was ready to drop the
subject. Nixon didn't drop it.
Kennedy, Nixon said, missed
the whole point. The Communist
objective, he contended, "is not
two little islands, not Formosa,
but the world."
The moment the free world
gives up territory to the Commu
nists, Nixon said, it is "going
right down the road to defeat and
surrender."
Starting the home stretch of the
presidential campaign, Nixon
called on supporters for redoubled
efforts to elect the Nixon-Lodge
ticket.
A crowd of about 3,300 In the
Bushnell Memorial Auditorium
roared back its assent. Outside,
between 9,000 and 10.000 more per
sons were lined up listening to the
vice president's speech over loud
speakers, Police Chief Paul Beck
wit h said.
As Nixon made the half-mile
drive from his hotel to the Bush
nell, a hall normally used for con
certs and other public events,
crowds clogged sidewalks and
overflowed to the street.
On other topics, Nixon stressed
his own experience. He also said
that the last eight years have
been marked by an increase in
schools, improved highways, jobs,
better wages and a check of in
flation. Mrs. Nixon came in from
Washington to Bushnell while he
was giving the speech.
In keeping alive the Quemoy
Matsu issue, Nixon was following
a prediction made Sunday night
by bis press chief, Herbert Klein,
who said Nixon would be em
phasizing the matter, i
Ex-U.S. Envoy
To Cuba Blames
'Police State'
NEW YORK (AP)-Did Teresa i
Casuso voluntarily quit her post;
as an ambassador on the Cuban
United Nations delegation or was
she fired?
She says she ouit because she
was fed up with Prime Minister
Fidel Castro and his "police
slate."
The Cuban Foreign Ministry
said she was fired last Tuesday
because she refused to return to
Havana to explain "irregular ac
tivities." To this Mrs. Casuso. who nuh-
licly announced Friday she was
resigning, retorted that nobody
nan ioia ner or dismissal.
She said she was in the Cuban
mission here as late as Thursday
to pick up some papers and there
was no mention of a dismissal notice.
Mrs. Casuso said she returned
from a .vacation on Sept. 20 and
was told by mission officials that
the Foreign Ministry had asked
her to return to Havana to receive
official accreditation to the U.N.
General Assembly.
When she requested official no
tification, she said, a teletype
message was sent on Oct, 3 asking
her to appear in Havana for "con
sultations and authorizing air
travel. 1
She said she then told Dr. Raul
Roa, the Cuban foreign minister,!
that she was ill and had ho inlen-,
tion of returning. i
The Cuban Foreign Ministry
statement, issued Friday night,!
said she was dismissed from her
post when she refused on grounds'
of ill-health to appear in Havana'
and explain "irregular activities."
The statement gave no details of
the "activities."
