Newspaper Page Textla The- Day's Sews Went her 0.0? CRS.irSSASt c.(?DOB-B SECTION COUP. By FRANK JENKINS 1 There's NEWS today. In a campus address yesterday to the students of the University :i of Costa Rira, President Kennedy .' said: "The Soviet Union MUST and , WILL get out of Cuba ... What i we cannot accept in Cuba is the yielding up of SOVEREIGNTY to , the Soviet Union and transforma- tion of that island into a base C from which Russia seeks to EX- j TEND ITS EMPIRE to the shore i of this continent." He added: ."We will never be secure in our hemisphere until the Soviet : Union noes the way of George HI. the Spanish conquerors, Max imilian and William Walker." That's plain language not dip lomatic gobbledygook. It can only be interpreted as meaning that if the Soviet Union doesn't GET OUT of the Western Hemisphere we will THROW IT OUT. In order to make his language unmistakably ft.it and nlain. President Kennedy cited three his toric occasions on which we have USED FORCE to keep FOREIGN RULE out of the Western Hemis phere: 1. George 111. 2. Maximilian. 3. The Spanish conquerors. The case of George III is of course familiar to every Ameri ran Hp was tlie ruler of Eng land when the American colonics declared their independence. (What perhaps isn't so well known is that after the Revolutionary War and just before the War of 1812 George III became hopeless ly insane and for 35 vears Eng land was ruled by the Prince of Wales.) .

Maximilian I accepted the offer of the then ruling clique and became Emperor ot Mexico Supported by French troops, he remained Emperor of Mexico for annroximatelv two years. At this noiirvl ihe War between the States was occupying our whole attention. After Anoomattox. we ordered him to GET OUT. He got out. The U.S. had then too much mill tary power to be ignored. He tried to nut up a battle, but was oanini'od hv trooDs of the Mexican Republic and executed by order of Benito Juarez, then Mexico's president. As for the Spanish conquerors, we cooked their goose in the Spanish-American War which we fought to deliver (Juoa irom me foreign rule of Spain. President Kennedy's citation o( the case of William Walker is particularly interesting under the circumstances. Walker was an AMERICAN. He was a military adventurer a fili busterer. In 1850. he came to California to hunt gold. Three vrars later, he assembled a regi ment of soldiers and tried to conquer Lower California and the nf Snnnra. both in Mexico. His attempt failed and he was tried by American authorities for violating our neutrality laws. u i ac freed and the follow lng year he tried to gain control of Honduras, but laiieo aim vee.iied hv the Honduran gov crnment-with no protest nom the U.S. Presumably. Pcrsident Kennedy cites Walker's case as assurance that NEVER will Americans be permitted to interfere in the af fairs of our sister states in the Western Hemisphere. Interesting question: n President Kennedy really MEAN BUSINESS in his flat statement in Costa Rica that if .h wiel Ilnin doesn't get out of Cuba it will be THROWN OUT .o.nmahlv hv the United States'.' If he does nA if he stands pat It will be one of the Great De cisions of American History. SALEM lU'PH The Ways and Means Education subcommittee voted lodav to limit hicher edu cation's building program for the h ennnim to S20.6 minion, ana approved two emergency projects. The subcommittee approved a $3.5 million appropriation to per mit Oregon technical institute to move to its new campus in Klamath Falls by the fall of 1964. The subcommittee also recom mended appropriation of $292,000 for replacement of Campbell Hall at Oregon College of Education, Monmouth, which was severe ly damaged in the Columbus Day windstorm. The $21)2,000 would be added to S158000 exDected from the stale restoration fund. The two projects, totaling $3,- 792,000. were the first recom mended this session by the edu j cation subcommittee. They now no hefore the lull ways ana Means Committee for approval. Both appropriations were ae- signed to meet what chancellor of higher education Dr. Roy Lieu alien termed "emergency" situa tions. The subcommittee agreed to limit further consideration of higher education's building pro gram to the top 12 priority items. In effect, this would limn me 1963-65 building program to $20.6 million, plus land costs. The board has projects totaling j almost $47 million on its priority list. The governor s Duaget pro posed $21.5 million. 1 The grant of tunds lor on would eliminate the necessity of splitting the school between two campuses. The move to the new campus was expected to cost $6 million. About half that amount was ap propriated two years ago, . The board ot education re quest for OTI funds was cut by only $15,000. Construction has oegun on tour hnildinos. The aDDrooriation ap proved Wednesday would finance the remaining six Duiidings. The subcommittee did reject a i-enuest for $240,000 to expand a proposed dormitory at OTI which is to be built largely trom reve nue bonds. The dormitory would contain 280 units, with another 50 or 60 added through the sup nlement. The subcommittee rec nmmended the board find the extra money needed from its own resources.

Kennedy will open a 6 p.m. EST televised news conference today with a statement on re sults of his San Jose meeting with presidents ot five Central American countries and Panama. The President flew back from Costa Rica Wednesday night in the fast time of 4 hours and 23 minutes. He was escorted over much of the 2.300-mile non-stop route by K105 fighter planes with accompanying tanker aircraft to refuel them. Kennedy landed at 11:03 p.m. EST at Andrews Air Force Base and received a surprise welcome from his wife. Jacqueline, who had rushed back to Washington from a New York shopping trip to be here when her husband ar rived. Hundreds Rush President Khnrtlv before takeoff from San true Kennedy addressed the sill denls of the University ol Costa the President was the center of another friendly melee as hun dreds of wildly cheering young Costa Ricans attempted to shake his hand. It was a wilder replay of a sim ilar reception of I lie day before at a new housing project exten sively financed with U.S. funds. At the university, the crowd hrnkn awnv from a thin line of civilian guardia civile, tore down rope barriers and pummclcd the President uproariously as his Se cret Service protectors nicliea him toward the helicopter. The seramb e reached a point nf wild, chantini; confusion when a Cosla Riean guard attempted to restrain one of the demonstrators a voniiL' woman of about 18 or 20 veins of age. He snatched at her. caught her blouse wlucn rippca away, leaving her completely bare to the waist. Amid the roaring "vivas" Ken nedy made it into the helicopter. He flew In a nearby airport where he switched to his jet transport for the flight to Wash incilnn. Kennedy returned with no idea that the three days of talks with leaders had solutions to long-standing and difficult eco nomic and political problems. Nor did he expect a quick change in Central American conditions. lti'ltpr Climate Created lie did believe, however, that the leaders together had created elimain which could lead to great economic and political unity and thus buttress a Key narl of the hemisphere against inroads of Communist influence and subversion which might be exported from Cuba. His press conlcrence originauy was set for 4 p.m. today, but he decided to switch to 6 o clock ana .men with a reoort on Hie trip. thus reaching a somewhat larger radio and television audience. Kennedy declared in his pre pared speech to the university students that the United Mates ennlH not Dermit Cuba to yield its sovereignty to the Soviet Un ion. He said Russia "musi ami will" go the way of those who tried and failed to extend their empire into the Western Hemi- enhere 1,. rlellverinft his SDeecll tlie President eliminated most of the references to Cuba and Russia and concentrated instead on com mon bonds of freedom and eco nomic progress in which the na tions of the Americas are joined. The White House said mere was no significance to the omis sions, a practice Kennedy often follows, and thai the President stood by the text of the prepared address.
