Cuban Big Shot Hurt In Assassination Try ; HAVANA Wl Carlos Rafael Rodriguez, one of the top Com munists in the Cuban government has been shot and severely wounded in an assassination attempt, an informed sourct report ed Saturday. . ' Prime Minister Fidel Castro's regime denied the report. The official Cuban information agency said it had "been authorized to deny the reports of the alleged assassination attempt as being Without foundation." " Rodriguez, boss of Cuba'a powerful National ; Institute of Agrarian Reform, was said to have been hit by four bullets in the leg and thigh last Wednesday. The Columbia Broadcasting System In New York quoted Its Havana correspondent as saying Rodriguez was in a hospital and tBat a specialist had been sum moned to treat him. .'An attempt to kill Rodriguez was made on Sept. 12, 1961, as he returned by car from Matan zas Province. A government an- nouncement at the time said the car was riddled by bullets but that Rodriguez escaped un hurt. Rodriguez then was editor of the Communist newspaper Hoy and a chief aide of Castro. Rodriguez is regarded as No. 2 man behind Bias Roca among the old-guard Communists in Cuba. He is considered, how ever, the top Marxist theoretician.

I Hamilton Electric JFK Says Chances Are Improving Things Looking Better in Senate, But About the Same in the House By JACK BELL or the AnocUted PrtM WASHINGTON OB Presi dent Kennedy apparently is keeping his fingers crossed about the fate of his legisla tive program in Congress, despite his victory in the House Rules Committee fight. Kennedy has told those who have discussed the political situation with him he believes the chances for passage of controversial proposals he makes may have Improved somewhat in the Senate but are about the same in the House as they were in 1962. Another decision important to the President will come Monday when House Demo crats caucus to determine who fills two places on the power ful Ways and Means Commit tee which holds the key on presidential tax plans and oth er administration goals such as medical care for the elderly. Three men are seeking the two places Reps. Phil M. Landrum of Georgia, W. Pat Jennings of Virginia and Ross Bass of Tennessee. The real contest seems to lie between Landrum and Jennings with the former uncommitted on Medicare and the latter fa voring the President's Social Security approach, in prin ciple. Public congressional activity Monday will center on the President's State of the Union message to both houses. He is to deliver this in person at 12:30 p.m. As usual, it is ex pected this will be couched in general terms with specific recommendations reserved for later, special messages. In the Senate, preliminaries probably will be carried out for a prolonged fight over the Senate filibuster rule. Motions to change the present rule and make it easier to curb filibusters are expected to be offered. Southern opponents of any change in the present rule which requires a two-thirds majority of those voting in order to limit debate already are organized to filibuster against it However, the ac tual debate is not likely to start until Thursday. But it could run on for days, or even weeks, once it starts. The President was repre sented as surprised by his margin in the 235-196 vote by which the House decided to continue its Rules Committee at the lS-member level. Nom inally, this is expected to pro duce 8 to 7 votes in the traffic-directing group to send major administration pro posals to the House floor. There is some thought in Congress that Democratic leaders may have done too good a job in rounding up support. There may be a tend ency by Democrats who back the administration only when they are put under heavy pressure to point to the 39 vote margin as indicating Proclamation Signed SALEM Of) Gov. Mark Hat field signed a proclamation Fri day commemorating the 60th anniversary of the Civil Service Act. their help isn't needed on in dividual measures they want to oppose. With a contribution of 28 votes toward the result. Re publicans have put themselves in a position to deny any charges the President may level against them that they are only obstructionists. Kennedy has made the point that, by and large, the public must be relatively sat isfied with the way the 87th Congress operated or so many of its members would not have been re-elected last Novem ber. Including vacancies created by resignations, death and re apportionment,' 67 new mem bers came to the House 36 Democrats and 31 Republi cans. Roughly this accounted for a 15 per cent change in the House membership. A shift of this nature could be signi ficant if it represented any substantial . change in view point Whether it does will be determined only when mem bers get down to voting on specific issues.
