CENTRAL OREGON'S DAILY NEWSPAPER 59th Year Eight Pages Bend, Deschutes County, Oregon, Monday, November 26, 1962 Ten Cents No. 300 THE Mikoyan gets gala farewell from Cubans HAVANA (UPD -Soviet special envoy Anastas Mikoyan left for New York today presumably bear ing a Fidel Castro demand the United States dismantle alleged training camps for anti-Castro foes on U. S. soil in return for United Nations inspection of So viet missile sites in Cuba. Mikoyan left in a special Soviet transport after a gala farewell ceremony at the airport involving the two Castro brothers, President Osvaldo Dorticos, State Minister Haul Roa and most of Castro's cabinet. Warm embraces were ex changed beteween them and the Russian, here for the past tlirce weeks to patch up Soviet-Cuban differences, as Mikoyan boarded the airliner. He is scheduled to dine tonight with U. N. Acting Secretary General Thant and may at that time convey Castro's new demand on the United States. Demand U. N. Inspection Castro said he would accept U. N. inspection of Soviet missile Bites in Cuba only if the u. s. would agree to similar U. N. su pervision of the dismantling of what he described as "training camps of mercenaries, spies, sa boteurs and terrorists" purported ly on U. S. soil. The effect of the declaration by the Castro government was to re ject the U. S. demand that Cuba permit inspection by the United Nations to verify that Soviet mis siles and other weapons have been removed from Cuba. The official statement, printed in the government press, declared Blso that Cuba "reserves the right to acquire arms of any type for Its defense and to take the steps it deems pertinent to strengthen ing its security. This also was in retort to Pres ident Kennedy's news conference statement of last week noting that "no lasting safeguards" had yet been established against the rein- troduction of offensive weapons to Cuba. , "". Claims of Aggression The statement, as published In the newspaper Revolucion, said: "The united Nations must veri fy on the continental soil of the United States. Puerto Rico and other sites where aggression beinC prepared against Cuba, the dismantling of training camps of mercenaries, spies, saboteurs and terrorists, centers where subver sion is being prepared and bases from which pirate ships embark acainst our coasts.

PARIS (UPD French voters gave President 'Charles de Gaulle majority control of the National Assembly today and established him as the strongest political force in recent French history. Runoff parliamentary elections held Sunday confirmed the results of a week ago that De Gaulle had turned a setback by parua ment into a victory of major pro portions at the polls. The Guallist Union for the New Republic UNR and its Republi can Independent allies, plus a scattering of other party candi dates pledged to De Gaulle, gave him considerably more than the absolute majority of 242 scats in the new 482-member National As sembly. The UNR raised its number of seats from 177 to 233. Officials estimated that with its allies it could control a solid voting bloc of nearly 280 members. Other relatively big winners were the Socialists, up to 66 from 43; and the Communists, up to 41 from 10. The big losers were the middle-line parties whose rebellion against De Gaulle two months ago touched off the political crisis that led to the elections. De Gaulle was expected to sum mon Premier Georges Pompidou today or Tuesday and ask him to form a new government. The di rect cause of the election was the parliamentary defeat of Pomp dou's old government in a confi dence vote. Officials said that De Gaulle, with parliament now firmly in his corner, was likely to seek a swift build up in French nuclear power and the broad modernization of the nation's industry and farming.

But an Indian spokesman said the cease-fire prot posals were still under study. The official Indian spokesman read a prepared statement which was the first official reaction to the cease-fire arrangement of fered by tlte Chinese Nov. 21 when they ordered their troops to halt fighting In the border war. The statement termed unaccept able was the Chinese Communist withdrawal proposal which, It said, would give them 2.000 square miles the Reds had overrun in the northwest frontier area of Ladakh. Vital High Ground . In the northeast frontier area, he said, the Chinese Communists would continue to control vital high ground between the McMahoa Line boundary, recognized as the frontier by India, and the monas tery town of Towang. "I am giving you facts," the Indian spokesman said when asked about the purpose of the statement. "You can draw your own inferences." One Inference might be that In dia was intending to reject the Communist offer but did not want to disturb the cease-fire now In Its sixth day. Prime Minister Jawaharlal Neh ru said earlier that hundreds of Indian soldiers trapped when the Communist Chinese cut them off at Se La Pass may be making their way to safety.

It is pos sible a fair number may be in a different column." It was heartening news for members of Parliament and the soldiers' families since there had been no word of the missing di vision since they were trapped by a Chinese flanking movement a week ago. Asks Clarification Nehru said there was no new word from the front lines, indi cating a four-day-old cease fir proclaimed by Peking still is in effect despite the fact India has not yet agreed to negotiate the border dispute. Nehru said the government hat asked Peking for "clarification" of its cease-fire and negotiations proposal because "various points are not clear." "We've asked for such clarifi cation so that we can make a de cision," Nehru said. "We've not received a full reply as yet. Per haps In a day or two w will get it." Nehru said, in answer to a question, that he has no Intention yet of taking the border battle to the United Nations, although thia possibility "is always open to us if we want to."
