Tours will begin at the electronics building across from the fire hall. A letter from a high school principal at Salem got the ball rolling which ended in the estab lishment of a new grinding room in the machine shop area. Howard Rowe received the letter and gave it to Dean Bingham, who gave Baldwin Lima Hamilton, lnc Victor Equipment Co. in San Francisco; Peterson Tractor Company and Caterpillar Tractor Company in San Leandro; Enter prise Engine & Machinery Co., Oakland; Standard Oil Company of California, Richmond and Pa cific Intel-mountain Express, Em eryville. Oregon Tech is now a member of the National Association of Foreign Student Advisers. Howard Rowe, registrar, is the institute's representative. A seminar for the benefit of the officers of labor oganizations will be held on the OTI campus on WASHINGTON tl'PI A form er U. S. ambassador to Latin America has told Congress that State Department policies con tributed to the loss of both China and Cuba to the Communists. William D. Pawley, envoy to Brazil and Peru in the 194l)'s and a State Department emissary as recently as 1954, described what he said were a series of errors andjby U. S. policv-makers that he doubted were all sincere mistakes of judgment. Pawley testified last September at the Senate internal security subcommittee investigation of Communist activities in the Car ibbean, particularly in Cuba. The testimony was released Sunday night. In his testimony, Pawley said that the decision to withdraw sup port from former Cuban dictator Fulgencio Batista, his long-time friend, created a power vacuum that made inevitable Fidel Cas tro's coup. He attacked policies of State Department officials under t h e believed that some members of' the "clique" had deliberately aid ed the Communists. But Pawley did not aim his criticism at the late Gen. George C. Marshall, former secretary of stale, as others have done. He said, instead, that Marshall helped block a move by then Sec retary of State Dean Acheson. Philip Jessup and others propos ing recognition of Red China in 1949-1950. He said that after former Pies-1 ident Harry Truman sent him to the State Department in 1951 as a kind of "devil's advocate." it was Webb who told him that he was regarded as a "reactionary"jreply." Braden was fired as assistant secretary of state in 1947 after Pawley showed Truman an Army intelligence memo supporting the view that Braden, when ambassa dor to Argentina in 1945, had be coine involved in a program which appeared to be helpful to the Communist party m Latin America." In New York, Braden replied that he had warned Truman re peatedly of Communist infiltra tion in Latin America in 1945. He said "it is only my respect for the Senate which impels me to dignify Pawley's hearsay testi mony and suppositions with any nd would not have access toi documents dealing with the Far East.

New National Aeronautics and Space Administration Director! James E. Webb was mentioned Pete Ryser, and at that point it was down to where the work really gets done. It seems that a certain student who graduated from the Salem High School came to Ore gon Tech this fall term with such a good background training that after taking written and labora tory tests he was granted prior credit for one term's work at OTI. The high school principal, who had heard of a special project that the student had done here last term, requested that the student be given permisjiion to specialize in the tool grinding phase of machine shop. Lawrence McClure, the student involved, is setting up the new shop as an individual project. The advanced standing which was granted him at Oregon Tech has been justified by the fact that his speed in completing projects per mits him sufficient time to set up the new training area. With this beginning, other students may be permitted to specialize in tool grinding. The new grinding room has five grinders designed for machine sharpening of tools. Twenty members of Oregon Tech's faculty and staff attended the statewide conference on im provement of college teaching held on the OSC campus Friday after noon and Saturday. "Experiments in College Teaching" iheme of the conference. Jack Douglass and Paul Meier went to a meeting in Portland last Monday sponsored by the State's Department of Planning and De velopment. "The purpose of the meeting was to acquaint colleges, univer sities and businesses that conduct research with the methods of re questing research contracts," Jack said. The various defense agencies. Navy, Army, and Air Force, are very interested in basic, applied, and developmental types of re search. They encourage qualified persons to submit applications for these contracts. Many Oregon Tech instructors fit into this category. The procedure is: first, get an idea, then submit a pre liminary application for research, and then, if the project is ap proved, submit a formal appli cation.

Meetings are held regularly during the noon hour each Wednesday and Thursday in Room 106, Nickerson Hall. Mr. Saunders and Mr. Lake are co sponsors of the group.

Raul Castro Leads Drive On Invaders Frank Stanko, dean of men, re ceived a letter from Minneapolis Honeywell Regulator . Company, Datamatio. Division, requesting permission to visit Oregon Tech for the purpose of recruiting men to work on data processing computers. HAVANA (UPI) - Raul Castro, armed forces chief and brother of the premier, today was reported personally leading the drive against a fresh band of anti-Cas tro invaders in eastern Cuba. The invaders, said to number about 50 men, were believed tak ing refuge in the Purial Moun tains to escape the government forces. Reports from Oriente Province said the rebel band landed near La Plata on the south coast about 30 miles east of the U.S. naval base at Guantanamo Bay. Unoffi cial reports said the group was led by Maj. Nino Diaz, a former aid of Raul's. ' Diaz, a native of Oriente Prov ince, once before had been re ported leading an insurgent band the I in the province but had to disband it for lack of support. Observers believed the invaders were seeking to open a second front against the government to relieve pressure on the rebels in central Cuba ,w here official sources admitted the government was losing 30 men a day. Sev eral thousand rebels are holed up in the Escambray Mountains. This is particularly true of en terprises formerly owned by Americans. The sources cited the once-flourishing tire industry as a prime example. It used to turn out 10-12,000 automobile and truck tires a week. Now it produces a trickle of about 300 from one of four factories that used to be run by Goodyear, Goodrich, Firestone and U.S. Rubber. This plant will close down its production line Tuesday because of acute shortages of raw ma terials, said an industrial expert. "Unless some carbon black and certain other essentials are found quickly, Cuba's tire production is a dead duck." this expert said. Sources said Cuban authorities made desperate efforts to get sub stantial quantities of carbon black in Canada but failed. They turned next to Europe, seeking offers on both sides of the Iron Curtain without immediate result. Many former workers at the rubber plants have been trans. ferred to other jobs. "We'll all be out cutting sugar cane if this keeps up," one said. Washington banned U.S. exports of everything but food and medi cine to Cuba four months ago in retaliation for Castro's virulent anti-United States campaign, his nationalization of almost all U.S. property in Cuba and his increas ingly close ties with the Commu nist bloc. Cuba used to buy about 75 per cent of all its imiwrts from the United States, or about $.100 million worth a year. This has been cut to a third. The picture is the same in other plants seized from American or private Cuban owners, industrial ists here said. Failure to get new raw material and spare part sources ' before existing supplies ran out is largely to blame. Among these industries are Demolished AUSTIN, Tex. (API Vice Pros ident Lyndon B. Johnson's luxu rious private plane was found smashed Monday in a pasture near his rancn with the pilot and co pilot dead. They were the only ones aboard the craft which vanished Sunday night on a 65-mile flight from Austin to the Johnson ranch. Johnson, himself, was at his ranch home near Johnson City and conducted an all-night search for the missing Convair 240. The two-engine craft crashed in rugged hill country during foggy weather. Those killed were pilot Harold Teague and copilot Charles Wil liams, both of Austin. The San Antonio News said the plane, a former commercial air liner, was owned by Johnson and a number of political supporters. It was used in last year's presi dcntial campaign.

Mitchell gave the keynote ad dress. "What happened last year has been over-played by politicians who want to push big spending programs," Wishart said. "In my company we believe an upturn is imminent and are planning ac cordingly." Mitchell, in his keynote speech. said that by 1975 this nation's work force will be too small to maintain our high standard ofi living unless we speed up automa tion and mechanization of plants and offices.
