For Loss Of Cuba And China

gineering Associates will hold open
house. With classes in regular ses
sion visitors will be conducted
through the instructional areas in
electronics, engineering, highway
lab. and through the industrial lab
in Cornett Hall. Invitations have
been sent to high schools in the
county and the public is invited.
Visitation hours will be from 1
to 4 in the afternoon and 7 to
9 in the evening. 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

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.
Pawley also said that Spruillc
Braden said, "Pawley made one
true statement. It is that 1
blocked his appointment as am
bassador to Argentina."

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

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. The Army has prepared Cnm RurPmi

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

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.
