Senator Says U.S.
Planes Will Shoot
If Cubans Attack
Washington - (HIT - Sen
Richard B. Russell says he
believes that in the future
V. S. pilots will shoot first
and ask questions later when
they see Communist planes at
tack vessels in international
waters.
The Georgia Democrat,
chairman of the Senate Arm
ed Services committee, made
the statement after a briefing
by Defense Secretary Robert
S. McNamara before the com
mittee.
Russell also said McNamara
made It clear that the United
States' policy is to "eliminate'
Castroism and communism in
Cuba.
No Doubt
On the matter of incidents
uch as the one Wednesday in
which a Cuban MIG fired on
en American shrimp boat.
Russell said "there is no doubt
in my mind that in the future
American planes even if
done In error will retail,
ete."
' I m sure our planes will
Moot down Russian . type
planes which appear to be at
tacking our ships in interna
tional waters even if the
nationality of the ship cannot
be positively established at
once and worry later about
any error that may have been
involved."
Russell made the statement
cs both administration and
congressional author! ties
shrugged off the warning by
Soviet Defense Minister Mar
thai Rodio Malinovsky, who

said any attack on Cuba would
trigger World War III.
Malinoriky'i Speech
Secretary of State Dean
Rusk said Malinovsky's speech
was "Just about what you'd
expect on the 45th anniver
sary of the Soviet armed
forces."
McNamara, discussing the
shrimper incident befora
meeting with Russell's com
mittee, said U. S. pilots were
cautious in dealing with the
MIGs that fired on the trawl
er. McNamara pointed out that
the shrimper flew no flag, and
could have been a Cuban ves
sel as far as the American air
men knew.
