Hijackers Force
Cuban Airliner
To Land at Miami
Miami, Fla.-(CPD -Four Cu
ban men-three of them claim
ing to have escaped from
, rebel firing squads-hijacked
a Cuban airliner at gunpoint j
today and forced the pilot to
land, in Miami.
The Aerovias Q C46 with
19 passengers, four of them
Americans, was en route from
Havana to the Isle of Pines,
about 50 miles south of the
Cuban mainland.
None of the passengers was
harmed.
The four Americans aboard
were Peter Kissel and his
wife, Phyllis, Far Hills, N. J.,
who said thev were on a vaca
tion-fishing trip; Sally Row-!
ley, New York City, and Rudy
Appel, an exporter from New
York City.
Guns Pulled
Dr. Domingo Acosta, a Ha
vana lawyer and one of the
passengers, said the four men
got out of tneir seats and pull
ed pistols some 10 minutes
after the twin-engine plane
left the airport at Havana.
"Anyone who moves we
will kill him," Acosta quoted
the men as saying.
The armed men told the
passengers to remain quiet in
the seats and then two of
them walked into the pilot's
compartment.
Candelario Delgado 40, the
pilot, and co-pilot Falso Val
des, said the men held pistols
at their heads and jerked off
their radio earphones.
Not Enough Fuel tf
The armed men ordered the
pilot to fly to the Dominican
Republic, but Delgado pro
tested he did not have enough
fuel for the trip. The hijack
ers then ordered the plane
flown to Miami.
As soon as the airliner
landed, police swarmed
around it and refused to let
anyone off. Later the pas
sengers, including 15 Cuban
nationals, were impounded in
the abandoned customs head
quarters of the airport.
The hijackers were identi
fied as Lenadro Serrate, 53,
a former corporal in SIMS,
the Batista secret police, and
three brothers, Sgt. Alfredo
Masony Sanchez, 36, Rolando,
27, and Jesus, 25.
In the Day's Hews
By FRANK JENKINS
' President Eisenhower an
nounces the resignation of
cancer-stricken Secretary of
State John Foster Dulles.
The President was deeply
moved. With traces of tears
in his eyes and in a choked
up voice, he told the newsmen
that Mr. Dulles, stricken with
his third outbreak of cancer,
is "absolutely incapacitated to
carry on his heavy routine
duties as our minister of for
eign affairs and still make
foreign policy. Mr. Dulles, the
President added, will carry on
(as long as he lives) as a state
department consultant.
Ike then added, in a voice
husky with emotion: "No man
of cabinet rank, tomy knowl
edge, has filled his position
with greater distinction."
linS'RE all deeply moved-as
"we should be.
Here is a dedicated man.
He has long known, probably,
that his case is hopeless-uiat
theend is only a question of
time. He went on and did nis

the months-perhaps, in hope
ful moments, the years-remaining
to him and seeking
to finish his task within nis
alloted time.
That takes a MAN.
MR. DULLES has been un

-as are most men who insist
on doing things the harcl way
in times when to tnem
seems plain that the hard way
is the best way.
It would have been so EASY
to appease communism.' To
give a little here. To give
uttip thee. To postpone
the evil day by means of com
promises, each of which would
have left our position as a
nation a little weaker than
it was before.
Arid-
It would have been popular.
We all love excuses to cnoose
the easy way.

If he insisted on driving
his country hard in what he
conceived to be the direction
in which it should go, he also
insisted on driving himself

of us like to think of taking
it easy, he gave up tne easy
