Page 2A EUGENE REGISTER-GUARD, Wed., Nov. 21, 1962 Big Step Out of Crisis U. N. Envoys Hail Accord By TOM HOGE Ol the Auoclatcd Priu UNITED NATIONS. N.Y. Delegates hailed Wednesday con cessions by the United States and the Soviet Union on two main friction points over Cuba as a big step out of the crisis. Diplomats predicted that long negotiations lay ahead before a final settlement is reached. But most felt the talks could pro ceed more smoothly since Premier Khrushchev has promised to pull some 30 jet bombers out of Cuba and President Kennedy countered by ordering the naval arms blockade lifted. Many U.N. members who supported the U.S. position on Cuba have been apprehensive that the blockade might touch off an -incident that could lead to U.S. Vessels Cut Blockade Formations By ELTON C. FAY Of th. Auoclated Freu WASHINGTON Ships of the big U.S. blockado fleet steamed toward homo ports or headed nut for routine patrols Wednes day, their month-long vigil over arms shipments into Cuba ended. The Defense Department sent Instructions to the Atlantic Fleet commander to disperse the force within minutes after President Kennedy's announce ment Tuesday night the naval quarantine was lifted. Nearer Home The first ships were expected to come into the nearer home ports Wednesday night or Thurs day morning, some of them back to base for the first time since Oct, 22. They had composed one of the largest naval concentrations since the Korean War an ar mada of carriers, cruisers, de stroyers, attack submarines and supporting tankers and sup ply vessels. The Defense Department had listed 49 Communist and non Communist ships as having passed through to Cuba during the month-long quarantine. One Lebanese freighter under Soviet charter was boarded by a U.S. naval party. No ships were turned back, but about six So viet vessels believed to have been carrying missiles turned around after having been headed toward Cuba. Within 30 Days Kennedy said that Soviet Pre mier Khrushchev told him that the IL28 jet bombers in Cuba, which remained a point of dis agreement after tho ballistic rockets were dismantled and shipped out, would be with drawn within 30 days. Khru shchev, said tho president, "agreed that these planes can he observed and counted as they leave." How the 1L28 bombers would bo observed and counted as they leave Cuba was not made clear immediately. The fact that tho blockado forco has been dispersed docs not necessarily menn that ship ping into and out of Cuba will pass along the sea lanes unno ticed. The Atlantic Fleet, with both shins and planes, routinely pa trols the western Atlantic and Caribbean waters. Former Minister Wins Libel Suit PORTLAND Wl A former Baptist minister was awarded $10,000 in a libel suit Tuesday against tho minister of Port land's Ilillcrcst Baptist Church. A Circuit Court Jury awarded Charles D. Murphy tho money in a suit claiming that Rev. Frank Harty had libeled him in letters to other Baptist minis ters. Murphy, now a farmer near Corvallis, had sought $100,000. Judge Paul Harris struck punitive damages from the claim, ruling that there had been no evidenco of malice. shooting war. Many knotty problems still face U.S. and Soviet negotiating teams who have spent three weeks trying to resolve the crisis. Kennedy stressed in his news conference Tuesday night that there still Is no on-site U.N. in spection to make sure the Sov iet Union is living up to its side of the bargain. Threat Renewed Fidel Castro has agreed to let the bombers be removed from his country, but he stressed again his opposition to inspec tion on Cuban soil and threat ened again to shoot down U.S planes flying over Cuba on re connaissance missions. The Presidents announce ment on the latest U.S.-Soviet agreements came a few hours after U.S. and Soviet negotiat ing teams got together at a working luncheon given by act ing Secretary-General U Thant The U.S. side was repre sented by Ambassador Adlai E. Stevenson, John J. McCloy, head of Kennedy's committee for coordinating negotiations, and Ambassador Charles W. Yost. Credited to Mikoyan The Russians were repre sented by Deputy Foreign Min isters Vasily V, Kuznetsov and Valerian Zorin and Ambassador Platon D. Morozov. i Castro's giving up the bomb ers was seen by delegates as a triumph for Soviet First Deputy Premier Anastas I. Mikoyan. The Kremlin trouble shooter has spent nearly three weeks in Havana presumably trying to persuade the Cuban leader to go along with Khrushchev s pledge to get all olfensive weapons out of Cuba under U.N. surveillance. Diplomats here noted that Castro's agreement to let the bombers go was accompanied by reports that Mikoyan had signed a new three-year eco nomic aid pact with Cuba. if MUM wjiMdmimsmn l - Mi V .

NEW YORK W Sham rocks are green, stars of Da vid arc blue. But, sure, you can be Irish and Jewish too. Thirty Jews who were born in Ireland proved that Tues day night by organizing and holding a charter meeting of a group they call the Loyal League of Yiddish Sons of Erin. The Irish-Jews or Jewish- Irish said they are dedicated to "banding together in a fra ternal clan those persons who wish to observe and celebrate both the traditions of their faith and the land of their birth." One question raised at the charter meeting was: "Shall we solemnly and sincerely re quest that the St. Patrick's Day parade committee grant the Loyal League of Yiddish Sons of Erin permission to march in the grand parade up Fifth Avenue next March?" Another proposition seri ously debated in soft Irish brogues: "Shall we charter a plane for a trip back to our native land of soft mists and sweet winds, a 19-day tour that will take us on to Israel, too?" The Loyal League of Yid dish Sons of Erin already has an official song called, "Erin Go Bragh and Shalom." The chorus goes: Erin go bragh and shalom, Ireland for ever and peace. Erin go bragh and shalom, May goodwill and brother hood increase. Erin go grabh and shalom, Always means good news. Erin go bragh and shalom, Here comes the Irish and the Jews." Erin go bragh" is "Ireland forever" in Gaelic. "Shalom" is a Hebrew greeting meaning either "Hollo" or "Goodbye." The membership card of the organization shows a harp superposed on a star of Da vid. Why did the Irish Jews or ganize? Larry Lewis, a Brooklyn heating engineer who once played soccer for the Talmud Torah School in Ireland's County Armagh, answered: Salem Woman One of Many Leaving Wind-Battered Isle SALEM Wl A Salem woman who arrived Monday from the Pacific island of Guam, hard-hit by a typhoon, said many civil ians are leaving the island to cscapo the threat of disease. She is Mrs. Leonard Lindas Jr., whoso husband is a school teacher on the tiny island. He stayed to arrango for shipping their possessions, and she brought her child with her. The 175-mile-an-hour winds of typhoon Karen left almost the entire 70.000 people on the is land without electricity or wa ter and brought concern about a possible typhoid epidemic, she said. Mrs. Lindas said she thought the estimate of 90 per cent of public buildings and housing de stroyed was conservative. "The plight of the Guamanl ans, who lived in frame houses, is pathetic," she said, "but they started nailing together what was left." She said they had three days' warning of tho typhoon, which hit Nov. 11, so they had put in supplies. She said most of them sought refuge in a concrete school house, where they huddled throughout the night. At dawn, she said, they went out to survey the damage. "Our reaction was one of be wilderment. . . We saw that the wind had ripped open trunks of cars and wrapped the lids over the cars' tops," Mrs. Lindas said. Her husband hopes to find a teaching job in Oregon when he gets back, she said. D s; .

The Pope said the thesis on divine revelation and its sources should be examined jointly by the council s Theological Com' mission, the Vatican Secretariat for Christian Unity, and a num ber of cardinals. His action, announced by a spokesman, amounted to a suc cess for progressive elements inside the council. Tbey had argued that the thesis either be shelved or rewritten in the in terest of inter-church relations. In the past, the Roman Cath olic Church has emphasized tra dition as well as the Bible as sources of God's revelation to man. Protestants have held that Whipple Departs BEAVERTON W) Blaine Whipple, defeated Democratic candidate for Congress in the 1st District, left Tuesday for a two-month tour of Europe to study the Common Market.

The thesis was prepared in a preliminary commission headed j by conservative Alfredo Cardi-I nal Ottaviani, secretary of the Vatican's powerful Congrega tion of the Holy Office. He also presides over the council's The ological Commission. The Secretariat for Christian j Unity is headed by Augustin Cardinal Bea, a German Jesuit considered progressive. By calling for a new joint study, including Cardinal Bea's secretariat, the Pope clearly un derlined the importance of the thesis in current efforts to im prove contacts between churches. The cardinals who will par ticipate in the new study were not identified. Presumably they will include both proponents and opponents of the thesis. USE OUR CONVENIENT CHRISTMAS LAYAWAY SERVICE 61 E.
