Ui Z J Ui i fit X W Vote on Change ill Filibuster Rule Is Expected in Senate Washington - IUPU - Senate leaders hoped for the first test vote today in the week long fight over bipartisan ef forts to make it easier to choke off filibusters. Foes of any change in the filibuster rule were confident they had enough votes to de feat a proposal which would curb debate whenever a ma jority of the members - 51 senators - approved. Agree ment by two-thirds of the senators voting is required now to cut off a filibuster. Even if the majority plan were defeated, the Senate still faced arguments and votes on a proposal to allow three-fifths of the members voting to curb debate. The first vote was expected on a motion - not yet made -to table and thus kill the majority plan. A tabling mo tion is not open to debate and means an immediate vote. Southerners,-who tradition ally have used the filibuster to talk to death civil rights legislation, argued at length against the rule change pro posals in the fifth day of de bate Monday.

The stories said two otti eers and one civilian were killed in the mysterious crash of a Cessna plane near Vara dero Airfield. They hinted that overzealous militiamen, tense from a 10-day "inva sion" alert, may have shot the aircraft by accident. The newspapers listed as having "died in the line of duty" rebel Air Force Capt. Martin Klein Schiller, 2nd Lt. Heriberto Martin Guzman, and a civilian named Osvaldo Sanchez Cabrera. The accident drew this com ment from the Communist Socialist party: "In doubly painful tragic circumstances three members of the revolution died . . . victims of painful confusion due to a zeal to fulfill revolu tionary duties and a desire not to waste a single minute from the tasks required by the fatherland and the revolu tion." Government-controlled un-1 ions today started daily anti- j American rallies, which will ! build up Friday to a "gigan tic" demonstration of support, for Premier Fidel Castro against the "Yankee invasion threat." Jesus Soto, leader of the CTC Union Federation, de-, scribed the rallies as "spon taneous" demonstrations to j support for Castro and his chief lieutenants and "an overwhelming notification to LIGHT PROBLEM Detroit Auto headlights which are high above the ground are ineffective in fog because the fog between the lights and the road reflects the beam.
