Passengers Claim Gravel Not Drunk Los Angeles - (UPII - A bi partisan pair of passengers said Thursday that Louisiana's national committeeman was stone sober and not drunk, as charged, when he arrived in Los Angeles aboard an .air liner Friday night. One of Camille Gravel's fellow passengers, a Repub- And it raised doubts that Cuba, even with a change of heart in its "little cold war" against this country, could ever fully regain Its preferen tial spot in the U.S. sugar market. Import Cut Ordered The President ordered the cut in Cuban sugar imports shortly after he told his news conference Wednesday that the United Stales would take any necessary steps to protect its interests if Russia estab lished a submarine base in Cuba. He said he did not regard it as "a likelihood" the Castro regime would grant the Rus sians such a base. But he con ceded there was always that possibility. Acting under authority given him last week end by Congress, Eisenhower cut by 700,000 tons Cuba's quota to market sugar in this country for the rest of 1960. Agriculture Department of ficials said the move also would deprive Cuba of a share in the Hawaiian and Puerto Rico quota deficits, amount ing to another 156,000 tons. 39.752 Tons Yet To Come Cuba's original quota for the year was 3,119.655 tons. Of this, all but 739,752 has either already been shipped here or has been cc.tified for entry. So the cut left 39,752 tons still to be imported. In a special statement, the President referred to Castro's barter deals to ship sugar to Russia at a time when experts said drastic economic reforms in Cuba threaten to cut sugar production. "The inescapable conclu sion is," Eisenhower said, "that Cuba has embarked on a course of action to commit steadily increasing amounts of its sugar crop to trade with the Communist bloc, thus making its future ability to fill the sugar needs of the United States ever more un lican, even admitted that he, and not Gravel, was the mys terious martini pilferer of Delta American Flight 921 from Fort Worth, Tex. Richard C. McChryslal, a Los Angeles chemical engi neer, absolved Gravel of any complicity in the theft of the box of six premixed martinis. The other passenger, Ed ward Sam Self, New Orleans "I think I'm a Democrat," -also said that Gravel had nothing to do with taking the martinis while the stewardess was away.
