Let us strive to do all that will achieve a just, and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations. We honor the great President and U.

EUGENE"iRpET GF,ELD another DALE CARNEGIE CLASS Approved for Oregon State Korean Veteran In Effective Speaking, Human Relations, - and Leadership Training Success Minded People Take the Dais Carnegie Court Castro Claims Right To Export Revolt By HENRY RAYMONT Ol the United preii International HAVANA (UPI) Premier Fidel Castro affirmed his deter mination to export revolution to Latin America in a weekend chal lenge to the inter-American sys tem which appeared to dash hopes of a reconciliation between Cuba and the new U.S. administration. In a speech early Sunday to a group of factory workers, Castro also hinted bis regime is prepar ing to take over Cuba's Roman Catholic schools and cemeteries. Rumors circulating here Mon day said the government may be preparing to follow up Castro's new declaration of hostility to the United States by cutting off the water supply of the U.S. Navy's big Guantanamo base. The water company which sup plies the base, controlled for months by the Castro regime, was formally taken over by the gov ernment a few days ago. FOES EXPLODE BOMBS Shortly before noon Saturday, bombs exploded in washrooms on the 6th and 14th floors of the INRA land reform building, where Castro and other leaders of his regime have offices. The explosions caused some damage but no reported casualties. IRNA workers, who usually knock off at noon on Saturday were held four hours overtime while agents of the Dier (secret police) investigated the bombings An undisclosed number of em ployes were arrested. ' In his 2 -hour speech to the workers, Castro announced that his regime is building a powerful radio transmitter to "spread our truth to the four winds of the world." Reports circulating here said experts from Communist East Europe were overseeing the job. CLAIMS RIGHTS "If the United States thinks it has a right to promote counter revolution in Cuba and . . reac tion in Latin America, Cuba feels entitled to encourage revolution in Latin America . . ." Castro said. "They (the U.S. government) feel they have a right to approve a credit of $4 million for counter revolutionary exiles. Well, Cuba feels it has a right to approve a credit for Puerto Rican exiles and revolutionary exiles from all Latin American nations." He said he would notify the United Nations of his decision. Diplomatic quarters said Castro appeared to be trying to provoke the United States, into seeking collective inter-American action against his regime, continent that bis friends in Brazil, Mexico, Ec uador, Uruguay and perhaps Ar gentina would torpedo any such campaign. French Reply To Moscow Plane Protest Campus Chest Drive Starts Feb. 20 at UO The Campus Chest fund drive. reorganized under the Associated Students of the University of Ore gon, will be held on the Eugene campus Feb. 20-24, according to Calvin M. Jensen of Boise, Ida., chairman of the drive. Jensen said a new plan of allo cating funds to charities has been devised this year. In the past, 75 per cent of the University's dona tion was given to the Lane County United Appeal, but this year a panel of graduate students and seniors in the sociology depart ment will select four individual agencies to share the funds. This policy was initiated so that the University's donation will - be identified as an academic endorse ment of the agencies, and so that the students will know how their contributions will be used. The chairman said that, under United Appeal distribution, Uni versity donations have amounted to an average of $15 to each of its member agencies. Names of the four agencies to receive the 1961 donation will be announced early next week. Other students on the commit tee Include Shirley Cranger of Springfield; William P. Hutchi son, Shelley M. James, Rondal J. Snodgrass, and Clark L. Stev ens, all of Portland, and Elisa C. Thomas of Roseburg. A. L. Ellingson, Student Union director, and R. E. Walker, YMCA executive secretary, are advisers. PARIS W) France told the Soviet Union Sunday it could not accept some of the language Mos cow used in its note protesting the French buzzing of Soviet President Leonid Brezhnev's plane off the Algerian coast. The French note addressed to Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei A. Gromyko said France will let the Kremlin know the results of its investigation. But the note said "certain terms employed in the Soviet note" sent here Satur day are considered inadmissable. French, jet fighters intercepted the S'Miet plane last Thursday while Brezhnev was en route to Morocco and Guinea. The French said one fighter fired warning shots to attract the plane's attention after the four jet airliner was found too far south of its scheduled course for Morocco and failed to identify itself. . France expressed "sincere re grets" for the incident but in sisted its patrols looking for arms shipments to the Algerian rebels have the right to intercept any plane within an 80-mile "zone of responsibility" along the Algerian coast. The Soviets rejected the ex planation. They demanded again that the guilty fliers be punished, accused the French of trying to whitewash the incident and in sisted the whole affair was "noth ing but an act of international banditry." . ' In London it was understood France resented the Soviet Union calling its fliers "bandits," ob jected to a contention that direct shots and not warning shots were fired, and said the Soviets cried falsely of interception over inter national waters for a plane the French say was off course.
