Sen. Maurine Neuberger
(D-Ore.) said Kennedy did the
right thing. She added she
would not be surprised if he
called Congress back into ses
sion following the November
election.
Rep. Al Ullman (D-Ore.)

courage, decisiveness and in

with the intent of the Cuban
resolution which Congress re
cently passed."
and particularly against "the
brave people of West Berlin
would be met by whatever ac
tion was needed. High offi
cials said U.S. military reac
tion against any Berlin block
ade would be swift.
The disclosure of Soviet !,
000 and 2,000-mile missiles in
Cuba and Kennedy's swift
counter move blasted hopes
which had sprung up recent
ly for another round of East-
West negotiations to avert a
flaming cold war crisis.
High U.S. officials said Ken
nedy still was leaving the
door open for possible nego
tiations with Khrushchev on
Cuba and Berlin. The U.S.
draft resolution prepared foi
the United Nations called for
Russia and the United States
to "confer promptly on
means of resolving the Cu
ban aggressive problem.
Kennedy pointed out in his
address, however, that "it is
difficult to settle or even dis
cuss these problems in an at
mosphere of intimidation.
Initial response from Al
lied Nations was heartening
to U.S. officials. They felt
there was a disposition to
close ranks behind the United
States, despite some obvious
misgivings over the Kennedy
course.
The two major World War
II enemies of the United States
Germany and Japan
quickly rallied to Its support
with declarations endorsing
the President's action.

Soviet Missle Build-up
In Cuba Shock to Allies
By United Press International
America's allies around
the world reacted with ex
pressions of shock today at
the disclosure of the charac

up in Cuba.
European govern ments,
gravely concerned at the im
plications, were slow in com

taken by Washington to stop
the build-up but the action
drew prompt support from
many Asian and Latin Ameri
can officials.
U.S. diplomats in foreign
capitals were busy Monday
and today filling in the chiefs
of friendly governments.
American servicemen serv

day night, aware that the
consequences could involve
them directly.
West Germany and Japan
were the first nations to ap
