... J 4 THURSDAY. OCTOBER 18. 1962 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFOHD. OREGON Psychological Warfare Strategy ToTventually Topple Oastro Regiiiis Washington ftlPB A policy of economic and psychological warfare coupled with hemi spheric security measures is emerging as the Kennedy ad ministration's strategy to iso late and eventually topple the regime of Cuban Premier Fidel Castro. In the view of foreign diplo mats here, drastic measures in these fields were precipitated by the sharp increase in Cuba's Sovict-i'ipplied arsenal and by mounting internal po litical pressures on the eve of the U.S. elections Nov. 6. Officials in Washington re gard Moscow's defiant mili tary presence in Cuba as a threat to U.S. prestige in the hemisphere - if not as yet to Birth Control Pills Being Used by One Million Americans Washington -dPD- More was conducting an investiga tion of a "possible causal re lationship" between the pills and thrombophlebitis. It said 28 cases of the blood clot di sease have been reported since September, 1061, among women given the contracep tive pill. Six nf them died. But the FDA emphasized that fatal blood clols can be caused by many factors unre- :than one million American women are now using birth 'control pills, according to the -Planned Parenthood federa tion. - A federation spokesman aid the new oral contracep tive, marketed in this coun try by the G. D. Searle Co. under the trade name tno vid," has been received with '"'remarkable enthusiasm by families in all walks of life." ', The pills are available on :i by a physician's prescrip tion. Taken on a rigid sched ule of 20 days a month, they prevent conception by sus pending ovulation. The current retail cost is about $3.50 a month.

Cleared for Sal '- The U.S. Food & Drug ad its security - with grave im plications for the overall Last. West struggle. To meet this challenge, the Kennedy administration is planning or has already taken these steps: -A program of stringent penalties on all shipping en gaged in trade between the Soviet bloc and Cuba. The program will be announced early next week. -Extending a hemispheric arms embargo against Cuba to other strategic items. The rouncil of the Organization of American Stales (OAS) agreed this week to study this action. - Tightening inter-American security and vigilance ma chinery to prevent the flow of propaganda and agents from the island. The OAS is also working on this plan -Aiding democratic anti Castro Cubans in tormenting internal rebellion in Cuba. -Holding out the possibility of an invasion in the event that the Soviet military build up grows into an "offensive" war machine. The first three steps were regarded by the administra tion as a minimum response to the Soviet bloc's Intrusion in hemisphere affairs. They are explicitly aimed at iso lating Cuba and disrupting her economy so as to make its j support as costly as possible i to Moscow. I The measures are also being taken with the substantial, if not unanimous, support of the Latin American allies. But they are causing difficulties in Washington's relations with the maritime nations of West ern Europe. On the other hand, there is no apparent agreement up to now within the administration how far it can push the last two points of militant nnti Castro action without losing the hard-gained Latin Ameri can support or unleashing a war. President Kennedy, for ex ample, has ruled out open military intervention under prevailing conditions. But many U.S. military officials as well as an impressive num ber of congressmen would readily resort to armed action at the slighest provocation. To counter these pressures, Kennedy has made clear he would not hesitate to lake military measures should he feel that the Soviet arms build-up becomes a threat to U.S. or hemispheric security. He has also hinted that the United States may encourage democratic anti-Castro Cubans in their efforls to build a re bellion in the island. Some U.S. officials believe that the threat of a quick, i quiet military move is feed-! ing the fears and uncertain tites of the Cuban people and thus weakening the Castro re gime. A number of Latin Ameri-1 can diplomats, on the other hand, see just the opposite ef fect. They believe that an external threat is one way of consolidating the Cubans be hind the Castro regime. j They say that unless there were a clear-cut case of Cuban aggression, it was doubtful whether more than four or five Latin American cminlriei would approve a unilateral military move.

The American Mcrnt.n as- -.ministration (FDA) cleared Enovid for commercial sale in May, 1960, after extensive .tesla in the United States, Puerto Hico and other coun tries indicated the pills were We and compared favorably ;in effectiveness with standard 'contraceptive appliances. In early August, at the bieight' of public concern over the baby-deforming drug thal idomide, the British Medical Journal published a report .'that several women in Britain and the United Slates had died of thrombophlebitis (in ternal blood clols) after tak ing birth control pills. This report touched off an International scare, and Nor way promptly removed the pills from the market. The U.S. Food and Drug ad ministration announced it liitclv no evidence lhat use nf the oral contraceptive caused the reported cases of thrombophlebitis." Chicago-Based House The Searle Co., a big Chi- cago-based pharmaceutical house, said the whole mailer was intensively discussed at a meeting of medical experts in Philadelphia last April, and "the conferees concluded that . . , the taking of Enovid Involved no more ri.k of thrombophlebitis than would occur in early normal pregnancy." About one woman in every thousand under Ihe age of 45 develops Ihrombophl e h 1 1 i s whether taking drugs or nol, and Ihe incidence is consider ably higher among pregnant women. The rianned Parenthood Federation has announced il will continue to dispense the pills through its birth control clinics. the past year from liquida tion cut to sustained - yield management, it was noted. Bob Nelson, forester from Timber Products, conducted Ihe lour. In Ihe Raspberry Creek portion of Ihe firm's holdings, the high - risk tree type of marking was demon strated. This type removes approximately one-third of the volume or about 10,000 feet per acre. This, it was noted, has left the residual stand in good con dition with a high rate of growth, As. the volume is re moved, a permanent road sys tem is developed and con structed. This enables the company to salvage any tim ber killed by fire or beetle infestation.
