Exploration Companies Targets For Castro Move HAVANA, AP - The Cuban I government, which already has slapped stiff new taxes on mineral! production, moved against all foft'isn oil exploration companies, Friday Biqht by sealing their of-1 (ice files! Agents from the Ministry of runiic Horns entered the com-, panics' offices without warning. They said the government is! preparing to draft a now pelro-j loum law and wants all the tech nical information in the hands of the oil companies. i Prime Minister Fidel Castro's cabinet passed a resolution pro viding for fines and prison sen tences for anyone hindering access to the files. There was no indication whether the files would be seized later or only examined. The surprise move left nil com pany executives wondering how it would affect their operations since they now have no,iccess to files. "It's hard to understand this action," said one executive. "Most of the material in our files on the! exploration of Cuban oil lands al ready is duplicated in Cuban government offices." American company representa tives conlerrcd with the, V. S. em bassy on the situation. Several foreign company execu tives said they understood the gov ernment also planned to examine the files of Cuban exploration firms. Although Cuba consumes about 50,000 barrels of oil daily, it pro duces no more than H barrels of domestic oil. Most of the oil is imported from Venezuela. A number of American, Cana- dian and British companies estah- lished exploration divisions in' Cuba in an effort to develop oil! production. Spokesmen for several said they expected. to shut down shortly be cause of increasing difficulties in operating. Among files sealed Friday were those at the offices of Esso, Tex aco. Atlantic Refining, Cuban Kc wanee, Cuban Gulf. Cuban Cali fornia i Standard Oil, California!, L'nion and Shell. The government action came only a lew days after the revolu tionary cabinet announced a new law setting a 5 per cent tax on mineral production, plus a 25 per cent levy on minerals exported. Representatives of several min ing companies said the law would virtually put any company out of business since it heaped on higher labor and other costs.

"Mrs. Aadland said she had done everything she could do to protect her daughter." Houston noted that the 17-year- old girl had been flynn s con stant companion for two years and nobody urged action during that time. "Someone must have read about it in Ihe papers," he said, "but nothing was ever done about it." The district atlorncy's office said it would await a formal re port from the Inglewood police before making a final decision to drop the case. The investigation was started when the district attorney's office was flooded with protests alter the blonde dancer said she re- retted she did not have a baby by Flynn. A district attorney spokesman said it would be impossible to bring charges unless Miss Aad land volunteered testimony that her mother contributed to her de linquency. The mother, Who claims to have been a dancer with the Earl Carroll troupe, maintained "there was nothing wrong with her daughter's relationship with Flynn. She said Flynn hired private tutors for the girl, a chaperon was always with them and that several women accompanied the couple on their trip to British Columbia. More Money Chances Good WASHINGTON (VP1) - Pros pects appeared bright today for Dr. Wernher von Araun to get the extra 100 million dollars he wants for the Saturn super rocket that may put America ahead in the space race. ; The Defense Department is rec ommending a new Saturn budget of HO million dollars, compared to the 240 million dollars Von Rraun wants, but the Army mis sile expert is believed certain of support from the civilian space agency to which he is being transferred. j A Pentagon spokesman conccd-1 ed that the department's recom mendation was based only on mil- j itary requirements. No military need for the super rocket is fore seen in the next four or five years, tne spokesman said, sol there was no reason to complete the program before I'JW or 1!I65.! But the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA! which will have charge of the project after Von Braun's trans-i fer receives the approval of Con gress, is eager to get a payload- carrying baiurn into space as soon as possible. Von Braun said this can be ac complished in 1063 if more money is provided. The Saturn is to have more than twice the power of the largest rocket used so far by the! Russians. On Own Leg OAKLAND, Calif. (AP)-It may be three years before Billy Smith can walk and that isn't certain but it's a miracle that he still has his right leg. This is the substance of a re port by two of the three surgeons at a news conference Friday. It was their 4'4-hour operation that saved the 23-year-old laborer's limb July 22. Smith's leg was crushed and severed when he was struck by a crane on a construction project. The surgeons, who requested an- onvmity, said he was brought to Eden Hospital so promptly and was in such healthy condition that they decided to try to graft the leg back. The leg was severed three Inches above the knee. "It was just too good a chance to pass up," said one surgeon. "We were very fortunate that we were confronted with only one vein and one artery." Smith will be in the hospital for months. His leg Is being held high to prevent clots. It will be about three years before the nerves grow back to the tip of his toes.
