Khrushchev Coup
With Caslro Said
Gained by Price
More Economic Aid
For Cuba Foreseen
Tax Deadlock Broken by
Senate-House Committee
58th Year
Moscow - UPD - Premier
Nikita S. Khrushchev scored
a diplomatic coup in . the
ideological struggle with
Communist China by enlist
ing Cuban Premier Fidel
Castro as a full-fledged mem
ber of the Moscow camp
but at a price, western diplo
mats said Saturday.
The conclusion was based
on the Soviet-Cuban commun
ique issued Friday night
which indicated that Castro
had extracted promises' of
more economic help from the
Soviet Union in exchange for
his support of Khrushchev's
policies. ; '
The diplomats said that
Castro's support could be cru
cial in the face of the forth
coming ideological confronta
tion with Peking. The Cuban
premier had appeared to
waver between Moscow and
Peking after Khrushchev
pulled the Soviet missiles out
of Cuba last fall.
The communique Issued
kept secret how much help
Russia would provide for
Cuba's hard pressed economy.
Russia has never released any
figures but western estimates
have variously ranged from
S100 to $470 million a year.
Agreed on Measures
The language of the com
munique was confined to say
ing that the Soviet Union
agreed on measures "for the
further de elopment of eco
nomic, trade and scientific
tics with Cuba" and would
pay more for Cuban sugar.
The Cuban-Soviet commun
ique, in addition to referring
to economic and trade rela
tions, also reaffirmed the
much repeated Soviet posi
tion that an attack on Cuba
would trigger World War III.
Khrushchev, it was dis
closed, also agreed to a visit
to Cuba although no dale was
set.
Castro's public support of
Khrushchev's handling of the
Caribbean crisis last fall and
the communique's insistence
that war is not "inevitable"
were considered a diplomatic
coup for Khrushchev.

Frostbitten Yanks
Descend Everest;
Copter Stymied
Katmandu, Nepal -(UPD-Two
Americans with frostbitten
feet began painfully edging
their way down Mt. Everest
Saturday night when pilots
said they were too high to
reach by helicopter, it was
reported here.
The two men, William Un
socld and Barry C. Bishop,
whose feet became frostbitten
during an unprecedented twin
assault on the world's highest
peak, were reported working
their way toward some stone
huts at 16.000 feet. The huts
house local tribesmen who
pasture their yaks there in
midsummer.
Local pilots said dense
clouds which wreath the top
of Mt. Everest make it dan
gerous and virtually impossi
ble to land above Nnmchc
Bazar, which is at 12,400 feet.
The head of the U. S. Ev
erest expedition had asked
for a helicopter to fly up the
mountain to pick up the two
men today. But pilots said
Usocld and Bishop would
have to climb down part of
the way first.

Thirty African
Nations Agree to
Charter of Unify
Group May Become
Neutralist Bloc
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia -NPD
A new organization linking 30
independent African nations
was bor here Saturday night
in a ceremony climaxing the
largest gathering of heads of
state ever held. The 30 Afri
can countries contain 200 mil
lion persons.
The heads of state signed a
charter for an organization of
African unity to replace rival
blocs within the continent.
The charter was designed
to weld a new force dedicated
to economic development of
Africa and to total liberation
from colonial rule.
The charter was the first
step in unifying Africa into
a powerful military, econom
ic and cultural bloc of 200
million persons. It was draft
ed by the foreign ministers
of Ethiopia, Nigeria, Ghana,
Cameroon, Senegal and the
United Arab Republic. They
had asked for delay but were
overruled by their presidents
and premiers.
The charter, which pledges
efforts to liberate all African
states still under colonial rule,
was a victory for Emperor
Haile Selassie, the Bearded
Lion of Judah, who told the
opening session of the four
day summit conference the
leaders must not leave until
they completed their work.
Written into the charter
was the absolute dedication of
member states to the total
emancipation of the African
territories which have not yet
gained their freedom.
Respect Equality
The members agreed that
all are sovereign and equal,
that there shall be no inter
ference in each other's inter
nal affairs and that they will
respect the sovereignty and
territorial equality of each
slate..
The official languages of
the organization will be Eng
lish and French.
Admission of new states
will be by majority vote and
amendment of the charter by
two-thirds majority.
The charter also condemns
political assassination as a
means of gaining power and
subversive activities by one
state against another. This
followed refusal of the group
to invite Togo, whose presi
dent was assassinated last
year.

High Sugar Prices
Subject of Probes
Washington (UPD Soaring
sugar prices left Congress in
a quandary Saturday with
three lvestigattons in the off

agreeing on causes or cures.
Chairman John J. Spark
man (D-Ala.) of the Senate
Small Business committee, an
nounced the third congression
al inquiry to be launched in
three days although the Agri
culture Department predicted
that big new delivery com
mitments from foreign pro
ducers would puncture the
"speculative bubble" which it
blamed for rapidly rising
prices.
Investigations were already
In the works by the Senate
Finance committee and a
House Banking subcommittee.
But Sparkman said his staff
would go into this matter
fully because his committee
"has the responsibility to the
nation, to the Senate, and to
the American small business
community to find out what
is going on.
He said that small business
"takes the full brunt of price
increases in commodities such
as sugar. Soft drink bottlers,
bakers, confectioners and oth
er heavy users of sugar are
predominantly amall and In
dependent businesses."

Pope John
Doctors Orders,
Continues
Vatican City -1UPD- A seri
ously ill Pope John XXIH is
disregarding doctors' orders
and continuing work in an ef
fort to keep his illness from
slowing up the Ecumenical
council, Vatican sources said
Saturday.
These sources said the 81-
year - old pontiff, suffering
from a recurrence of a chron
ic stomach disorder that has
caused internal bleeding, will
not heed doctors pleas to
rest and relax. They said the
Pope is afraid that any letup
in his efforts could result in
the postponement of the sec
ond session of the historic
council, scheduled to open in
St. Peter's Basilica on Sept. 8.
As a result, Pope John has
been working on documents
and papers dealing with coun
cil work despite orders that
he "take It easy" and build
up his strength during a nine
day "spiritual retreat" he
started Friday.
Ovcr-llring himself has
been the main cause of the
Pope's two hemorrhages - the
first last November and the
second last week. The Vatican
officially claims Pope John
is suffering from stomach
trouble and anemia - or defi
ciency of the blood - and has
never confirmed nor denied
published reports he has can
