(UPI) He was a slight, mild mannered man with gray eyes who 'had worked over the years on a dozen farms around but nev er seemed to put a root down any place. Since last summer, without a regular job or a home, he had lived in his battered car,' or slept in convenient barns. "He only stole what he needed," a state police officer said. "But it was getting to be a big nui sance, and some people were get ting scared." Through new fallen snow last week end they tracked James W. Ellis, 47, to the home he had found for the winter a small cave high in the rocks of the western Berkshires, overlooking the Harlem Valley farmland. "It's beautiful country," said Police Sgt. Earl D. Hanchett. In the small cave officers found a few blankets, a few clothes, a rifle and shotgun, empty food cans and the bones of the rabbits and deer Ellis had shot for food He went peaceably with the troopers.

S. covered the guns during inspec tion of the cars of 200 workers entering the plant. "I have decided the benefit of doubt must be given these men and no statutory criminal action will therefore be taken," Olson said. He warned future violations would bring action. Other than the finding of the weapons, the reopening was with out incident. It marked first slaughtering done at the plant since martial law was declared Dec. 11 in the wake of violence between United Packinghouse Workers pickets and 500 non-union workers Wilson had been usinc. Sheriff's men said they found no guns in their search of non union worker's cars at the start of this morning's shift. Token pickets were on duty again today and there were no incidents. A federal court ruled last week that closing of the plant under the martial law edict was illegal. The union has been on strike since Nov. 3.

At a session there Monday, Ralph He stein, union nresiriont 1 submitted 31 demands he saidir. constituted a "total strike settle ment proposal" for struck Wilson plants in several states. A particularly thorny question revolves about the rehiring of striking workers who have been replaced. HAVANA (I'PI) - President Osvaldo Dorticos Torrado said .Monday night Cuba's revolution ary regime, distrusting inter- American peace machinery, is ready if necessary to stand alone against a possible "invasion."

Dorticos said he does not be lieve the Organization of Ameri can States, which has been in slrumental in halting Cuba-based invasions of several Latin Ameri can countries in the past year, can be counted on to defend this country against attack. Internal organizations do not serve to halt aggression. . ." he said. "Even without air cover, with only the Cuban people and the revolutionary army, we will be able to repel them (possible invaders). "If they are coming, let them come soon." Maj.
