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.

ate Foreign Relation commit
tee last week. Afterward, com
mittee members said his state

couraging picture of the inter
national situation.
Teamsters: Senate investi
gators prepared to open a new
investigation of alleged hood

Teamster President James R.
Hoffa will be called as a wit

Jumpy Cubans Fire
On Own Airplane
Havana, Cuba-IUPII-ThS-' Cu
ban press printed a terse an
nouncement today hinting
that jffmpy antiaircraft gun
ners may have shot down
one of their own air force
planes.
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
