Cubans Varned
To Prepare lor
t lore Sacrifices
?' Havana - (UPB - Premier Fi
' del Castro scoffed at his ene
mies but warned Cubans Sun
day to prepare for more Bacri-
flees to defend his revolution
against attack., ' -v
In a 4V4 hour' speech, car
Tied by television and radio,
'the bearded premier dismiss
ed counler-revolutlonary lead
! ers as "lnneffectual self-de-
luded men." He shrugged off
the "call to arms'! against his
regime by Cuban exile lead
ers in the United States as lit
tle more than a waste of time.
Warm of Rationing
Even while exuding confl
'. dence in popular support for
his regime, Castro again warn
ed that rationing of certain
goods would soon be neces
' sary In the "fight to the
death" against his foes. '
But he guaranteed that
even under a "situation of full
attack and economic block-
: ade" Cubans would get cloth
ing, shoes, food, medicine, ed
ucation and recreation. He
: boasted that no other country
In the Western Hemisphere
could make such a guarantee
'-"not even the United States
. where social discrimination
-. maintains a large portion of
the population in misery.";
Confidant of People
Castro made no direct ref
erence to the manifesto issued
by Jose Miro Cardona, presi
dent of the Revolutionary
Council, in New York during
the week end urging Cubans
to overthrow his regime. . -' i,
. But he said he was confi
dent the Cuban people pre
ferred "our honest revolu
tion" to what he called the
"shady, regressive forces" of
the counter-revolutionaries. '.

Vinson said that the -accel-erated
' Polaris J construction
program would result In the
delivery of 12 of the super
subs each year, beginning in
June, 1963. This compares
with the previous rate of five
a year.
He said the range of the
present Polaris missile is 1,
200 miles but a newer ver

Commitlee Looks'
At Bills Totaling
$86 Million v
Salem - (UPD The 1961 Leg
islature, looking for millions
of dollars to pay for much
talked - about pet projects, is
about to find only a few pen
nies still rattling around in
the 1961-63 bank.
The shortage threatens to
slim down,' or squeeze away
altogether, at least some plans
for summer work camps, men
tal health clinics, fish hatch
eries, classroom television,
community colleges, crime
prevention, salmon rehabili
tation, and electronic vote-tallying.
; i . .
Total $86 Million '
These are only a few of the
hundreds of bills, totalling $86
million, that have been sent
to Ways and Means commit
tee for a , look at the price
tag. Only a few bills would
raise money instead of paying
it out.
In closing weeks, the screws
will turn tighter 'on ways and
means to back up favored
plans with some sound dollars.
The committee must deal with
the reality of the state's near
ly empty 1961-63 checkbook.
Co - chairman Clarence Bar
ton (D-Coquille) summed it up
this way: "We are planning to
find funds for the most im
portant projects, but obvious
ly we cannot fill some. $80
million in requests with the
$5 or $6 million we have to
work with." .
Small Saving Gained '
Gov. Mark' Hatfield's $359
million budget proposed to
spend just about all the mon
ey the state plans to get in
the next two years. - " '
Ways and Means has taken
a close look at Hatfield's plans,
chopping out , a dictaphone
here and a new position there,
but so far only a few hundred
thousand dollars in cuts have
been made., .
This saving was wiped out
in a stroke when the legisla
ture approved i $900,000 to
bring Boeing Airplane Co. to
Boardman Industrial Park.
Final action still pends on
the big budgets - education,
$132 million; higher educa
tion, $95 million; welfare $96
million - but sub-committees
studying these say few if any
dollars will be: gleaned for
other projects. I
A big question mark Is
whether the legislature will
use $4 million budgeted by
Hatfield for medi-care or turn
it to other plans, increased
revenue estimates have pro
vided a few additional mil
lions. ' ,:
Hatfield himself made al
lowance in his budget for
some highly lauded projects
such as better pay for state
employees and college teach
ers and a $10 per child in
crease in basic school support.
Tax Cuts Unlikely
' i Even here, some legislators
want more than Hatfield had
in mind.
Plans for community col
leges, salmon restoration, and
a surplus food program alone
total six million, and Hatfield
made no mention of these.
Sponsors stt plans ranging
from cherry research to vo
cational rehabilitation ' and
Civil War Centennial are ask
ing far less, often under $100,
000, but the pleas add up.
Community colleges and men
tal health clinics are given a
fair chance, but other requests
will not fare so well.
Few major revenue - pro
ducing bills are before the
legislature, and these, includ
ing tobacco tax, have a poor
chance. Tax cuts are unlikely.
The totals still fluctuate
daily as the committees cut
and pad budgets, but decisions
on all these bills must be made
soon, and it is evident the
legislature will have to be se
lective in its spending plan.
U.S. Research Boon
To Economy Growth
. Washington (Science Serv
ice) U.S. research and de
velopment is one of the most
effective spurs to continued
economic growth, statistics re
ported here - by the National
Science foundation show.
About $12.4 billion was
spent on research and develop
ment in 1959, which account
ed, for 2.6 per cent of the
gross national product (GNP).
During the past few years,
this ration has continually
stayed above 2 per cent, the
foundation reported.
New products absorbed into
the economy continually stim
ulate U.S. investment and out
put. Such products as transis
tors show that certain re
search and development ' ef
forts result in much greater
returns than in investments
for plants and equipment. In
1959, funds for research and
develpment represented about
one-tenth of the total U.S.
investment ,
The report is available from
the U.S. Government Printing
Office here for ten cents.
