Navy Prepared
To Remain at
Guanfanamo
Havana TIUPD- Hundreds of
Americans packed for a hasty
return to the United States to
day under a warning from the
U.S. Embassy to get out of
Cuba immediately unless they
had "compelling reasons" to
stay.
U.S. Charge d'Affaires Dan
iel Braddock issued the warn
ing Tuesday night following
the formal break in U.S.-Cu-
ban relations. He said the em
bassy would help arrange
transportation.
Although Premier Fidel
Castro's government had
promised "absolute guaran
tees" of the rights of an esti
mated 2,000 to 3,500 Ameri
cans in Cuba, the Dier (secret
police) were holding at least
four Americans and two Cu
ban women associated with
the embassy.
Castro called his cabinet
Into emergency session short
ly after the rupture in rela
tions was announced, perhaps
to discuss the future of the big
U.S. naval base at Guantan
amo. U.S. Navy Stays 1
A spokesman at Guantana-
mo said the Navy is going to
slay in Cuba despite the dip
lomatic break.
"We arc fully prepared for
every eventuality . . ," said
Lt. Cmdr. J. F. Lloyd, base in
formation officer. "Whatever
happens, we're going to sta'y
We are bound by the direc
tives of the U.S. Navy, and
we're going to follow orders."
The Castro-controlled radio,
after calling the break in re
lations "a new step of Yankee
aggression," said it would stay1
on the air all nignt to inform
people of the events of this
transcendental moment,"
Radio Moscow also describ
ed the U.S.-Cuban break as "a
new step toward aggression."
Two of the Americans tak
en into custody Tuesday night
by the Dier were officials -Stewart
H. Adams, U.S.
Treasury representative at the
embassy, and Miss Frances
Simopoulos, an embassy sec-reary.
No Charges Filed
Also being held were Sophie
Watson, a Cuban receptionist
at the embassy; her sister
Edythe, a Cuban-born Ameri
can employee o'f the U.S. Em
bassy in Panama; their moth
er, and Tony Fcrantes, an
American with no known em
bassy connection.
So far as was known, no
charges 'had been filed against
any of the six although it was
reported the arrests were in
connection with an alleged at
tempt to remove some furni
ture from Adams rented
house.
A special plane will fly
down from Miami today to
pick up 76 embassy employees
who had been ordered to get
out of Cuba within 48 hours.
A railroad car ferry with
capacity of 100 passengers
will leave Havana for West
Palm Beach today and again
JJriday.
Pan American World Air
ways was authorized to put on
extra flights from Cuba today
and Thursday for other Amer
icans leaving the country.
Braddock "said he and 10
others members of the em
bassy staff not affected by
the 4B-honr deadline would
stay on for a "day or two" to
assist departing Americans.
Liberals, Conservatives Battle in Congress
Washington - IUPD - Liberals
battled conservatives in the
Senate and House today in a
struggle over efforts to re
move possible roadblocks in
the way of President-elect
John F. Kennedy's legislative
requests.
As the 87th Congress met
for its. second day, Senate
liberals pinned their main
hopes for modifying the cham
ber's filibuster rule on a
Democratic -Republican pro
posal to let three-fifths of the
members voting curb debate
on any issue.
In the House, Speaker Sam
Rayburn was locked in a behind-the-scenes
struggle with
Chairman Howard W. Smith
(D-Va.) of the powerful rules
committee over a plan to
break conservative control of
the panel by purging Rep.
William M. Colmer (D-Miss.).
President Eisenhower call
ed GOP congressional leaders
to a morning White House
meeting to discuss the outlook
for legislation in' the Democratic-controlled
Congress and
possibly to give them a pre
view of the final State of iTne
Union Message he will send
to Congress Jan. 12.
The present Senate fili
buster rule requires approval
of two-thirds of all members
.voting before debate can be
limited.
Face More Wrangling
Both supporters and oppo
nents said privately that a
close vote could shape up on
the three-fifths proposal, spon
sored by Sens. Clinton P. An
derson (D-N.M.) and Thruston
B. Morton (R-Ky.), the GOP
national chairman.
But before the showdown,
the Senate apparently faced
more parliamentary wrang
ling over a stronger biparti
san liberal proposal to let a
majority of the Senate's 100
members curb talkathons
against civil rights legislation
or anything else. Its chances
appeared slim, however.
Despite the hopes of Demo
cratic leaders for party har
mony to ease the way for Ken
nedy's program, liberal forces
plunged the Semite into anolh-
fight over the filibuster
rule as soon as the new Con-Ol
gress convened Tues.day.
After two hours of parli
mentary wrangling, with Vice
President Richard M. Nixon
making frequent rulings, the
Senate put off further action
until today.
New Senate Democratic
leader Mike Mansfield (Mont.)
said he hoped the rules fight
could be ended this week.
Both he and Republican Lead
er Everett M. Dirksen (111.)
oppose any change at the
present time.
But their chief assistants,
Democratic Whip . Hubert H.
HumplPrey (Minn.) and Re
publican Whip Thomas H.
Kuchel (Calif.) are main spon- fltalkathons of their own,
sors of the proposal to let a
majority of all members curb
debate.
The Senate's potent South
ern bloc, . headed by Sen,
Richard B. Russell (D-Ga.) was
prepared to talk at length
against both, proposals unless
an early showdown came on
motions to table - and thus
kill - both moves. A tabling
motion requires an immediate
vote.
Could Block Program
Supporters of the rule
change argue that the present
rule would allow minorities
to block large portions of Ken
nedy's legislative program, in
cluding civil rights. Oppo
nents, however, point out that
liberals also have taken refuga
in the same rule to conduct
also will determine to a large
extent how much trouble Ken
nedy will have pushing a rea
sonable facsimile of his pro
gram through Congress.
The rules committee, which
has the power to determine
which bills the House can take
up, last year scuttled two b'lls
on Kennedy's five-point prior
ity program for the new Congress.
