Page t EUGENE REGISTER-GUARD, Monday, April 1, 1963 Solons Back Exile Curbs '' WASHINGTON LP Senate leaders of both parties generally appear to approve the administration's restrictions designed to halt Cuban exile commando raids on Fidel Castro's Cuba. " They said unauthorized hit-and-run raids are not only inef fective, but could carry the possibility of involving this country in armed conflict. '" Sen. Mike Mansfield, D-Mont., the Senate majority leader. who took this view, also said "there have been reports that as a 1 result of these raids, Castro, in Restaurants, Hotel Close In Zermatt ZERMATT, Switzerland Wl Normally bustling Zermatt was I ghost town Monday. An outbreak of typhoid fever that has killed at least three percns and afflicted 400 has sent tile last of the tourists home. Only members of a Swiss army medical team and the 1, 200 local residents now remain in the Swiss Alps. The last tourists left Sunday, taking the single-track railway down to the lowlands. ' Hotels were shuttered. Cafes, and restaurants and night clubs closed. The only public eating place la the military canteen set up by the government to feed the 150 soldiers here. A spokesman for the village authorities said the tourist fa cilities will be closed "as long as it is necessary to give Zer matt a clean bill of health." Officials said this may take up to two months. TVeak Hail Storm OCEANLAKE Wl A sudden draft of cold air that caused a temperature drop of eight de grees in 19 minutes has been .blamed for a freak hail storm at this coastal community. The ball piled up In what looked tike snowdrifts Saturday. Rain had been falling intermittently earlier in the day. retaliation, has shot a number of Cubans Inside Cuba." Mansfield said he understood the desire of exiles to free their homeland, "but they can't take the law into their own hands." The government has taken steps to insure that such raids do not originate on U.S. terri tory, including Puerto Rico. Sen. Everett Dirksen, R ill., the minority leader, agreed with Mansfield that the unau thorized raids can "have no ef fect except to stir up a lot of trouble." But Dirksen added that this country should try to find a channel through which the ex iles "can use their spirit and determination to free the Cuban people." "This spirit and determina tion has not been mentioned," he said. Mansfield voiced hope United States measures would ease in creasing tensions over the raids for which he said the American government has no responsibil ity despite Soviet and Cuban charges to the contrary. Sen, Hubert Humphrey, D Minn,, assistant Senate major ity leader, called the curbing of exile movements in this country a sound policy although he said he would oppose its extension to interference with raids from Caribbean islands outside U.S. jurisdiction.

By US., Great Britain Test Ban Treaty Plans Summarized GENEVA W The United States and Britain submitted to the 17-nation disarmament con ference Monday a summary of their proposals for a treaty to ban nuclear testing. They urged the Soviet Union to negotiate on the broad issues. But Soviet delegate Semyon K. Tsarapkin ignored the summary and restated the Soviet position that three on-site inspections a year are enough to check on suspected treaty violations. Tsarapkin declared great pro gress in seismic detection tech niques had been made in the United States, in the past year but this has been concealed from the public to obstruct the negotiations. A U.S. spokesman said the U.S. -British memorandum shows the West now places much less emphasis on an international control body and neutral inspec tors under a test ban treaty. The main responsibility for policing a test ban in the Soviet Pilot to Return to Yukon for Diaries By ALLAN EATON Of the United Pren Internetloaai WHITEHORSE, Yukon Terri tory California pilot Ralph Flores hopes to return soon to the frozen British Columbia wil derness where he and a Brook lyn coed survived 48 days on littlo more than water and raw courage. Flores, 42, a native of Mexico who now lives in San Bruno, Calif., was released Sunday night from the hospital where he had been recuperating since their rescue a week ago. He left on a pair of crutches, one frostbitten foot still wrapped in bandages. Flores was taken to the home of friends, Mr. and Mrs. Norman Drayton, who have been hosts to Mrs. Flores since her arrival here from Califor nia. Flores said he planned to rest at the Drayton home until at least Thursday, but hopes to re turn to the crash scene "and get my diaries." He plans to write a book on the ordeal. Miss Klabcn, 21, has been flown to New York, where she must undergo amputation of five frostbitten toes. Both Flores and Miss Klaben have been reticent to discuss de tails of their experiences, but veteran bush country trappers who toured the crash scene on a mountainside just south of the Yukon border said they were amazed at the ingenuity and courage of the injured couple. Flores suffered a crushed jaw and other injuries, and Miss Klaben's arm was broken when their light plane crashed on the remote mountain Feb. 4. They spent seven weeks there until their rescue. "It is fantastic what these people have done, especially since they obviously were not woodspeople," said veteran guide Alex Van Bibber, who led this correspondent and several others to the scene Saturday, We flew from Watson Lake near Whitehorse to Aeroplane Lake near the Yukon border in a ski plane. The swirling snow had covered anything Flores might have left there. We were met by a heli copter at that point and flown to the wreckage of the crash. Here, mute evidence of the ordeal was in full display. The injured Flores had shin nied up a 50-foot tree and at tached a 15-foot boom to it with a strip of canvas. He had hoped to fly a flag from it should res cuers appear. The plane's radio aerial pro truded from another tree. Flores had fought for days in an un successful attempt to get the radio to work. The ancient yellow aircraft had come in from the northeast in a storm, cutting down pine trees and plowing a swath through the forest. Both wings were clipped off. For five weeks, the couple lived in the wreckage of the tiny plane, with a piece of can vas stretched out in front like a little awning. Rabbit, wolf and lynx tracks covered the area but Flores and Miss Klaben had not known how to trap them although Flores had attempted to kill game with a slingshot. The inside of the aircraft was smashed, and the wheel of the controls was badly bent where it had crushed Flores' jaw. The four remaining suitcases in the plane contained various tools. Tree stumps in the area in dicated that Flores had used the tools to chop plenty of wood. Union would be on the United States and Britain. The main policing responsibility in the United States and Britain would be handled by the Soviet Union. All the proposals have been put forward in the past seven weeks of negotiations but Tsar apkin has ignored tiiein. After presenting the memor andum, U.S. ambassador Charles Stelle turned directly to Tsarap kin and declared: "We earnestly appeal to the Soviet government to reconsider its present refusal to discuss anything but the Soviet-proposed number of on-site inspections and the Soviet-proposed num ber of automatic stations. We ask the Soviet Union to join with us in real negotiations on all the major issues involved in a nuclear test ban treaty. The negotiations are dead' locked by the Soviet refusal to discuss any inspection procedure unless the West first commits itself to a maximum of there on-site inspections a year and three automatic seismic stations on Soviet territory. The memorandum presented by Sielle and Sir Paul Mason of Britain restates the Western in sistence on at least seven in spections a year. Stelle told the conference the United States still wants seven automatic sta tions on Soviet soil. Union Leader Cites Job Need KANSAS CITY, Mo. W It will take 41 million new jobs in the next 10 years just to keep unemployment from getting worse, says Walter Reuther. The president of the United Auto Workers, AFL-CIO, spoke at the dedication of a new hall for UAW Local 93 Sunday. He said the federal govern ment must do something about unemployment, and added:"The problem in Washington is get ting Congress to do what the President proposes. And what the President proposes is not enough." Youth Corps Bill Okayed Senate Committee Approves Plan, 11-3 WASHINGTON Wl The Sen ate Labor Committee approved 11-3 Monday a revised version of President Kennedy's youth employment bill. Democrats said they would push for Senate passage before Easter. The program proposed by the measure is designed to furnish jobs and training to about 100, 000 unemployed youths annual ly when fully under way. The youths would work in conservation camps similar to those operated by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930s and also in community public service projects with the enrol lies living at home. The committee approved the bill with the unanimous support of its 10 Democratic members plus one Republican, Jacob Javits, New York. Three Republicans, Barry Goldwater, Arizona, John Tow er, Texas, and Winston Prouty, Vermont, opposed it. Sen. Len Jordan, R-ldaho, was not re corded. Sen. Joseph Clark, D-Pa., chairman of the subcommittee which conducted hearings on the hill, said that Republicans asked for an extended time to write their minority views on the legislation. But it finally was decided that they would try to get them ready by Thursday. If this is done, the measure could come up in the Senate for debate Fri day, Clark said.
