HAVANA (AP) Field Ceslro
threatened today that Cuba will
form many revolutionary governments-in-exile"
beginning
with Puerto Kico if the United
Slates sanctions a Cuban govern-ment-in-exile.
The prime minister made a
sharp counterattack to President
Kennedy's announcement of a
broad 10-year economic and so
cial development program for La
tin America and Kennedy's ex
pression of hope that the people
of Cuba "will soon rejoin the so
ciety of free men, uniting with
us in our common effort."
Oil For Revolt
Castro quickly interpreted the
Kennedy program, outlined 10 .La
tin-American diplomats at a!
White House reception, as a call
for a revolt against his regime.
"If they promote revolution
against us, we will promote rev
olution against the governments
which promote revolution against
us," he said.
Castro linked his attack on the
Kennedy administration with a
fresh charge of aggression by the
United States. He said the United
States had supplied counter-revolutionaries
with an armed ship

Cuban Sailor Killed
The government controlled
press and radio said the ship
probably sped to a refuge at the
U.S Naval Base at Guantanamo
Bay after firing shots that killed
a Cuban sailor, wounded a mil
itiaman, and set fire to an at
mospheric lower at the refinery,
and punctured three tanks.
Officials at the naval base, 45
miles east of Santiago, denied the
vessel had taken refuge at the
base.
Castro fumed with anger in a
three-hour postmidnight speech
before a rain-drenched crowd
around the steps of Havana Uni
versity. While the crowd was
gathering, a bomb exploded in the
Vedado district nranen ot me m
ban National Bank. No one was
hurt.
Says Attacks Increased
Castro charged that armed at
tacks on Cuba had increased
since Kennedy took over the pres
idency. He, showered his warm
est praise yet on the Soviet-led
Communist bloc. Castro derided
Kennedy as a "captive of monop-
ale such literature from places
wnere u couia ue purcnasea uy mi-
nors.
Showing slides made by the
AFMP and samples of magazines
he'd purchased in Roseburg, Mar
tin pointed out the K of C is
working primarily lo eliminate
magazines and pocketbooks filled
with lewd and provocative passag
es, magazines filled with pictures
of nudes and semi-nudes in provoc
ative poses.
Three Reasons
He said the formation of a rep
resentative community committee
offers the best protection against
such literature for two basic rea
sons. First, he said, the distribu
tors and retailers will usually co
operate with such a group on a
voluntary basis, and, secondly, the
lawyers for publishers of such
books can usually "beat" any le
gal restriction set up against the
books if the cases are taken to
court.
Martin said there are three main
reasons such books are available
to minors. The first, he pointed
out, is because the public has been.1
lax about watching the type oi
reading material available. The
second is because some people will
publish anything to make a buck,
and the third is because they are
promoted in a large scale by the
communist party to decay the mor
als of American youth, he declared.
Martin said that Herbert uu
brick,' true life counterspy made
famous bv the television series "1
Led Three Lives," testified before
a Congressional Committee that
several members of a Boston,
Mass., communist party cell were
publishers of sucii magazines.
Works With Sellers
He emphasized that the organiza
tion does not push a vigilante type
of movement, but works hand-in-hand
with distributors and retail
magazine sellers to clean up the
magazine standi
There is presently a commitlee
of this type active in Sulherlin.
The council commitlee is ex
pected to make its own study on
the matter and then call for a
public hearing to see if citizens of
Roseburg want lo form such an
organization.

"supposed alliance for progress
a historical joke which intends to
be a continental joke."
Castro said "barely two years
ago the Yankee- empire did not
remember (Latin) America ex
isted." He said the Cuban revo
lution and leftist advances in La
tin America had awakened the
United States.
He declared: "The cowardly gi
ant feels weak in the face of the
moral and the reason and the
prestige of small people and says
the problem is a problem of all
America. And we say that the
problem of Cuba with the United
States is not a problem of Cuba
with the United Stales but a prob

the United States."
Free Tuition
Plans Ignored
EUGENE (AP) A plea that
free tuition be given children of
faculty members at the state's
colleges and universities was
brushed aside Monday by the Fi
nance Committee of the Oregon
uoaru ct wigner Education.
Portland State College faculty
members had made the proposal,
saying it would bo one way of
making up for low salaries.
The plea was tabled after Chan
ccllor John R. Richards said the
free tuition plan might be an ob
stacle to a major effort now be
ing made to raise salaries.
Board members also talked over
aspects of (heir edict that frater
nities withdraw membership bans
based on religion or rave by 13
or lose omciai recognition by the
board.
Dan Poling, dean of men at Ore-
Igon State College, said that might
aiiect. rni Kappa Theta at OSC,
which limits its membership to
Roman Catholics.
The board's Building Commit
lee authorized a call for bids on
dormitory projects. They include
two projects costing an estimated
$1,895,000 and $1,590,000 at the
University of Oregon; a $6.10.000
project at Oregon College of Edu
cation: and a $1,140,000 iob at Ore
gon State College. Bids also were
authorized for a $440,000 addition
to Hunt Hall at Eastern Oregon
College.
Preliminary plans for a $535.-
000 addition to the Erb Memorial
Union at the university were ap
proved. That addition will include
eight more bowling alleys. The
committee also recommended that
plans be continued for a proposed
$1,670,000, eight-story humanities
building at the university.
In addition, the committee au
thorized a site study for housing

were sidetracked again Monday
night.
During the meeting, the sioewaiK
construction project was turned
over to the Planning Committee of
the council for further study.
New Life Given
The tabling at least gave the pro
ject new life, however. An initial
count of votes of property owners
showed a 60 per cent majority
against the proposal. But an error
was discovered in the count, .and
Councilman Frank Moss made a
motion the project proceed because
the second count was less than SO
per cent against.
it was then the mailer wai ta
bled for review by the Planning
Committee, according to Sutherlin
correspondent Barbara Liesinger.
The paving job has been a hot
issue for some time.
Personnel matters also took up
part of the Monday meeting.,
In one action, the council accept
ed the resignation of Mrs. Ida
Lehman, who has served as city
recorder eight years. It then ap
proved the appointment of Mrs.
Dorolhy Fox as new city recorder.
In another action, it approved a
revision of the pay scale of city
employes at the behest of the La
bor Committee. The revision in
cludes raises for almost all em
ployes and also adjusts some sal
aries for greater consistency
among departments. The raises
will go into effect after July 1.
Moratorium Allowed
Turning to another subject, the
council voled to allow owners of
hazardous and condemned build
ings in the city 90 days in which
to initiate corrective measures.
The 90 days will be allowed after
the receipt of a certified letter re
ceived by a property owner from
the city manager.
Permission was also granted to

Tax Concessions
Asked On Building
SALEM (AP) Construction
may start in June on an $8.3 mil

Portland, a Senate Tax Commit
tee was told Monday.
James P. Johnson of Standard
Insurance Co. said bids would be
opened Thursday for a new build
ing his company plans and the
June construction start is expect
ed if they are satisfactory.
Johnson appeared before the
committee hearing on a bill that
would give properly tax relief lo
new buildings during their two-
year construction period.
Johnson said the bill would en
courage more commercial con
struction in Oregon. The bill
would extend similar benefits now
given to manufacturing firms on
their new building.
Under the bill the land slill
would be taxed but the building
would not through this non produc
tive construction period.
Johnson said the building would
have 75 to 100 new, full-time em
ployes, including those employed
on a three-level, sub surface park
ing facility, in a branch bank and
in a restaurant.

dustrial development division of
the Roseburg Chamber of Com
merce Monday noon.
Slump Omitted
Dr. Tattersall omitted any ref
erence to the current economic
slump in the lumber and plywood
industry and confined his talk to
trends during the 1950s and the
outlook in 1960 based on those
trends.
He stated that it appears now pre
dictions of population increases for
Washington of four million and
Oregon of three million by 1975
were overly optimistic. Revised es
timates say Oregon will have about
2.1 million in 1970 and 2.2 million
in 1975, with Washington's increase
about the samo proportion. Doug
las County's population forecast of
about 126,000 in 1975 has been re
vised downward to 80,000 in 1970
and 90,000 in 1980.
While the current period is one
of surpluses, there is evidence that
the Jacine rvormwesi may una
difficulty keeping up with demand
for goods manufactured here, in
cluding lumber products, he said.
Tattersall stated he sees the
greatest hopes for Douglas County
in the following (not necessarily in
order of importance): 1. Industrial
development based on raw mater
ials; 2. Forest products industries;
3. recreational potential, parks,
fisheries and others; 4, betterment

Council Orders Study
Of City Sidewalks
The Roseburg City Council Mon
day night ordered a complete sur
vey of the need lor peaesirian
walking facilities on the west side
of the city and on SE Douglas
Ave. This move was aimed pri
marily at oifering safe walking
areas for school students. k-
The big problem areas discussed
by the council were on the west
side, in the W. Harvard Ave. area
where junior high and high school
students will have to walk in areas
that do not have sidewalks or ac
tual safe walkways.
The survey will be carried out
by the city engineering depart
ment. Action on this matter at this
time was brought about by a re
cent decision of the Roseburg
School Board. That board voted to
uphold a decision to make the jun
ior high and high school students
on the west side cither walk lo
school or arrive by private trans
portation. No bus service will be
provided for that region.
The engineering department will
carry out a survey of all the walk
ing patterns in these areas and lay
out a design for a sidewalk sys
tem. Methods of financing the
needed improvements will be dis
cussed when that plan is com
pleted. Canyonville Resident
