Soviet Vessels
Continue Course
Toward Cuba
Clash Within
Hours Predicted
Washington-IUPD - Twenty-
five Soviet ships continued on
course toward Cuba today
after the U.S. quarantine
against arms shipments for-,
mally went into operation.
All signs pointed to a clash
within hours between Ameri
can warships and some of the
Russian vessels. There were
reports this country deliber
ately would single out a ves
sel carrying arms for the test.
Task Force Waiting
The quarantine went into
effect at 6 a.m. (PST). Two
hours later, a Pentagon
spokesman said he hud no
evidence that any of the Rus
sian ships had turned back
or altered their course.
Awaiting them in interna
tional waters was a U.S. task
force under orders to stop
them for an inspection and
sink them if necessary.
As the showdown neared
and tension mounted, Presi
dent Kennedy met with cab
inet officials and his top-level
military and intelligence ad
visers.
No Soviet Backdown
Soviet officials here and
elsewhere have given every
indication that the Russian
ships would refuse to stop or
be searched. One Russian of
ficial was said to have told a
party here Tuesday night that
Our ships will sail through
and if it is decreed that those
men must die, then they will
obey their orders and stay on
course or be sunk."

Deated charges that the block
ade is "a threat to. universal
peace."

rying armament, possibly mis
siles to reinforce those al
ready in Cuba.

Russian Premier
Calls for Meeting
At Summit Level
Leader Says Pirate
Action Unacceptable
Moscow-TOPQ-Premier Nlkl-
ta Khrushchev said the Soviet
Union "will make no rash de
cisions" as a result of the
Cuban crisis and will "not let
itself be provoked by the un
justified actions" of the Unit
ed States, the official Soviet
Tass news agency reported to
day. "We will do everything
which depends on us to pre
vent the launching of a war,"
Khrushchev said in reply to a
telegram from Earl Bertrand
Russell, the British philoso
pher, about the U.S. action
against Cuban, Tass said.
Asks Summit Meeting
The Soviet news agency
said Khrushchev called for a
summit meeting to help settle
the dispute.
"We would think a meeting
on the highest level to be use
ful," Khrushchev said. "The
U.S. government must show
restraint and must halt the
realization of its pirate-like
threats which may have the
most serious consequences."
Tass said Khrushchev told
Russell:
Understandins the cnmnlt-
cated nature of the situation
caused by the pirate activities
of the American government,
we cannot accept them in any
form."
The Soviet leader said if the
.U.S. government "grossly dis
regards and violates the inter
national laws, then the ex
tremely acute situation may
get out of control and this
may grow into a world war
with all Its sad consequences
lor tn,e peoples of all coun
tries.' . ,
Tass said "That is why ef
forts are now demanHprl nnt
only on the part of the Soviet
Union, the socialist countries
and Cuba, but also by all
states, all the peoples and all
classes in order to prevent a
war catastrophe."
No Other Way Out
Khrushchev was minted n.
saying that if the American
government "carries out its
planned program of piratical
action, then of course, we
shall have to make use of the
means of defense against the
aggressor; we have no other
way out."
The Soviet premier said as
long as rocket nuclear weap
ons have not been used, there
is a possibility to avert war.
Once the Americans have
launched aggression, Tass
quoted Khrushchev as saying,
a mcetine of the hirheet 1pvi
will become impossible and
useless.
Khrushchev's reply to the
British philosopher, who is a
leader of the British Pacifist
Committee of 100, also was
broadcast by Moscow Radio's
home service.
