Wcstinghouse 33 'a Weyerhaeuser 35 Youngstown 123, Castro Feared U.S. Invasion WASHINGTON (UPI) Fidel Castro has been quoted as say ing that a remark by President Kennedy convinced him and Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khru shchev that a U.S. invasion of Cuba was imminent and led them to place Russian missiles on the island. The White House said Wed nesday, however, that the late President stated at the time to Khrushchev's son-in-law, Alcxei I. Adzhubei, that no U.S. inva sion was planned. Castro's re ference was to the talk Ken nedy had with Adzhubei, the editor of the newspaper Izves tia, in January 1962. Castro's statements were re ported by Jean Daniel, a French newsman who interviewed the Cuban premier shortly before the Nov. 22 assassination of Kennedy. Castro said Kennedy recalled for Adzhubei that the United States did not intervene when Russia put down the 1956 revolt in Hungary. According to Dan iel, Castro said he and Khrush chev took this to mean that the United States planned a second invasion attempt against Cuba and did not expect Russia to intervene.

(UPI) - An thony De Angelis, central fig ure in the multi-million dollar edible oil scandal which has had serious repercussions in Wall Street, was cited for contempt of court Wednesday. Federal bankruptcy referee William Tallyn cited De An gelis, president of the bankrupt Allied Crude Vegetable Oil and Refining Corp., of Bayonne, N.J., for refusing to answer questions about the firm. Also cited was Ben Rotello, controller of Allied. They were ordered to show cause next Wednesday before a federal judge why they should not be sent to prison "or otherwise dealt with." Fifth Amendment Pleaded Both pleaded the Fifth Amendment to all questions asked them during bankruptcy hearings before Tallyn. The contempt citation was re quested by Daniel F. De Lear, the court-appointed receiver for Allied. Earlier Tuesday, a federal grand jury here started an in vestigation into De Angelis' ma nipulations so complicated that 600 million pounds of oil cannot be located. In Washington, the Senate permanent investigations sub committee, headed by Sen. John L. McClellan, D-Ark., began a "preliminary survey" to deter mine if there should be a full scale inquiry. To Face Questioning Today, attorneys for the Bunge Corp., a large exporter of agricultural products, were scheduled to question represent atives of Allied, five transporta tion firms and a barge captain. Oils Said Removed Bunge held warehouse re ceipts for 160 million pounds of oil that was supposed to be in storage tanks at the American Express Warehousing Co., Ltd., in Bayonne. Bunge naa extend ed Allied credit on the basis of warehouse receipts. However, when the tanks were checked only seven mil lion pounds of oil was found. Bunge contends 690 million pounds of edible oils were re moved from the tanks just be fore Allied went into bankruptcy last month when it was unable to meet $18 million dollars in margin calls. The failure of Allied to meet the margin calls led to the liq uidation of the brokerage firm of Ira Haupt & Co. and the merging of .1. R. Williston Jt Bcane with another brokerage firm. Five other firms controlled by De Angelis subsequently filed for reorganization after the scandal began to spread.
