We have to negotiate and work with them. The economic links between Cuba and the free world arc now so limited that severing those that remain will not. have a significant effect on the Cuban economy or the survivabil ity of the Castro regime." Keating explained that the rec ommendations were those he made to President Kennedy and Cen tral Intelligence Director John A McCone on Feb. 8.

On Cuba Senator sources of the United States, NATO and the free world "could be mobilized with devastating ef fect" against Russia and its Cu ban operations. He urged that NATO nations deny both their ships and cargoes to Cuban trade, cut off Soviet bloc sales of material like that going to Cuba and, where possible, ap ply a "complete free world boy cott on trade with the Soviet bloc." Lists U.S. Moves Humphrey said persuasion and cooperation usually were more effective" in dealing with allies on the Cuban problem than try ing harsh action. He said the fol lowing moves were among those already taken to isolate Cuba economically: Suspension of sugar purchases 'July l0i.

'UPI I -Illinois' fledgling birth control program, scored by its opponents as a "subsidization of sin," was in danger today of being legis lated out of existence. The program was adopted by the Illinois Public Aid Commis sion (1PAC) in an effort to re duce drastically the state's rising number of illegitimate births. It provided free birth control information and devices to women on relief who have either a hus band or a child. The Illinois Senate voted over whelmingly Thursday to strip the program of its most controversial provisions. By a 42-5 vote, the Senate barred the IPAC from pay ing for birth control information and devices for unwed mothers and married women not living with their husbands. The measure would still permit the aid commission to spend state money for women on relief living with their husbands. A county judge, revealing that he has "been worried" that the birth control program might "en courage adultery and fornication," said he would issue an injunction Monday halting it, Superior Court Judge John J. Lupe announced his injunction de cision after the IPAC's official attorney, State Atty. Gen. William G. Clark, condemned the program and urged that it be halted The Senate action now goes to the House, where similar legisla tion was delayed in committee pending testimony by IPAC Chair man Arnold H. Maremont. Change Sought In Land Board SALEM (UPI) Rep. Robert Smith, R-Burns, said Friday he is introducing a bill to authorize transferring functions of the State Land Board to other agencies. For example, mining duties would go to the Department of Ecology, mortgage loans to the De partment of Veterans Affairs, ad ministration of forest lands to tho Forestry Department, and invest- mails to the slate treasurer. Man agement of grazing lands would be retained by the land board. iMUlMlUUaUJ H HNl1 II I J II 12 IllVSir El M i ....

UPI Telephoto Cancer From Called 'False SAN MATEO, Calif. (UPD-The medical profession may have been "stampeded into a false belief" that cigarette smoking is the prin cipal cause of lung cancer, ac cording to a U.S. Veterans Ad ministration official. Dr. Leroy Hyde, a nonsmoker. said Thursday that heredity and air pollution are more likely causes of the disease. He appeared at a news confer ence and panel discussion during the joint annual meeting of the Tuberculosis and Health Associa tion of California and the Califor nia Thoracid Society. Hyde, a clinical professor of medicine at the UCLA School of Medicine, said he has seen 3.000 cases of lung cancer as chief of the pulmonary disease division of the Veteran Administration llos ipital in Long Beach, Calif His views on the principal Shur-Fresh COFFE Hills Bros.

They have designated cigarettes as the main cause of lung cancer. 'This may well have been a case where the medical profession has been stampeded into a false belief," Hyde said. "It seems to me to be a case of mass hysteria where the medical profession is being utilized by people who have an emotional involvement." He did not specify who the peo ple with "an emotional involve ment were. In England, it has been shown that lung cancer mortality among men in the two hichest social classes is significantly less than for other classes." Hyde said. "The same trend has been noted by Metropolitan Life Insurance Company in this country." m mm S. n.

We proved that on the Isle of Pines last year during a one-week revolt, "the big strike." Besides defying Communist gun fire and deciding on a plan for a hunger strike, the prisoners in prison building No. 1 where I was held also agreed to try to block guards from entering to make a twice-daily "head count' of the inmates. This really was heaping insult on injury to the prison authorities This check of prisoners usually took place at 6 a.m. and 4 p.m. every day. On that first night of the strike, May 21, 1X2, Bernardo Diaz, chief of interior order at the prison, appeared in our building. Chubby and middle-aged, Diaz is a die-hard Communist from t h e city of Cardenas in Matanzas Province, who boasts a 30-year membership in the party. Submit Demands When he demanded that the strike be ended, a sheet of pa per containing seven demands was passed out to him. The Red offi cial, jokingly referred to by pris oners as pompanio, a comic book character, stomped off in a rage. Basically the men were asking for more food instead of the star vation diet of boiled spaghetti in the morning and a bowl of so called soup in the afternoon. They also asked for mail privi leges, for visits at least once ev ery three months, for adequate medical attention, and enough wa ter to wash themselves and to clean the prison. They also asked permission to receive medicines and vitamins from their relatives. Even though packages containing these items often reached the prison, some how they would disappear before they could be handed over to the inmates. Allowed To Decay The food packages that were allowed once a month usually were so delayed that the fruit and home-made preserves which they contained arrived in a state of decay. Nevertheless, everything was eaten unless it was really bad. Without these occasional "ex tras" most of the men would have died. The effects on the stomachs of the men of both the prison fare fni Giant TIDE On Isle Of Pines Revolt Food, Medical Attention land decayed food shipments was almost calamitous. Even without the abominable prison conditions, this alone would have been suf ficient to set off galloping dys entery. Last but not least on the list was a demand that the 20,000 pounds of dynamite used to mine the prison buildings be removed. The explosiveshad been strateg ically placed by Czechoslovakia!! and Cuban experts. Threatens Prisoners Diaz often had remarked to the prisoners: "The Americans may invade Cuba but you will never live to see it." On one occasion he said: "The Marines may land but not fast enough to save you. They are welcome to liber Scientists Seek Round Trip For Moon Traveler DOWNEY, Calif. iUPI Theihung beneath the pendulum and man in the street may think of landing an astronaut on the moon, but scientists are concerned with the other half of the lunar mis sionbringing the moon man back to earth. A giant four-armed pendulum is in full swing at North American Aviation's facility here to make sure the first U.S. lunar explorer has a round-trip ticket. Scientists at North American's Space and Information Systems Division are collecting land and water impact information on early models of the three-man Apollo space capsule designed to ferry a trio of astronauts to the moon The pendulum, mounted beneath two huge steel towers, swings the 8,500-pound full scale instrumented Apollo spacecraft at controlled speeds and angles into a simu lated ocean recovery area or a land impact area. The Apollo, scheduled to be blasted on its moon mission with a crew of three astronauts about 1970, is designed to land on earth or water, using three giant para chutes for a soft landing. Newsmen were invited to ob serve a test landing on water Thursday. The unmanned Apollo command module, or crew capsule, was DOWNTOWN OFFICE SPACE Inquire At GUN STORE 714 Main ate what's left of you after the; explosion. I can also remember how he screamed at us during the strike. "You are doing this as part of an American plan to smear the great Cuban socialist revolution. Don't you know that whenever Communists arrive in power they can never be overthrown? The, people are with us, not with you!' We hooted and told him this was his "last chance" to renounce communism and, besides, we "knew" he really was just a "bourgoise type." Naturally, Diaz was infuriated He waved his fat fist at us. Water Cut Off After Diaz' unsuccessful at tempt to quash the strike that first night, our building's water .dropped into a 300.000 gallon tank simulating an ocean recovery area. Hanging beneath the pendulum at an attitude simulating its posi tion beneath its landing para chutes, the more than four ton capsule swung between the two towers and was released about 15 feet above the water descending at a speed of 18 miles an hour and a ground speed of 21 m.p.h. The funnel-s h a p e d capsule slammed into the pool, nearly sub merging, and showering up a cas cade of white water. Still awash in the turbulence of the tank, the capsule bobbed to the surface and appeared to have withstood the test successfully. CREATED UNCLE REMUS The enduring folk character of American literature. Uncle Re mus, was the creation of Joel Chandler Harris (1848-1908), ac cording to the Encyclopaedia Bri- tanmca. Cake Mix supply was cut off. The director of the prison and his military in telligence staff decided that the inmates in No. 1 building were the "intellectual authors" of the strike. The prisoners in this section were mainly officers and non coms from Batista's army, as well as from Castro's rebel army who refused to go along with the Communist line. The inmates al so included well - known politi cians, businessmen and land ow n ers. Our building was scheduled to be blown up first in case of any "emergency," the guards told us. But the dangers of the powder keg on which we lived were forgotten at the outset of the strike. The extreme water shortage loomed as our most immediate vital prob lem because there was only a one-day supply on hand. Supply Rationed To counteract this threat the prisoners quickly worked out a water rationing program under which every one would get two small cups daily until it ran out. Some of the men had meager supplies of brown sugar and pow dered wheat. They mixed them with water once a day to provide some nourishment for the sick and those weakest from lack of food. But without water this supple mentary feeding would be diffi cult to carry on. The doctors in our building or ganized an impromptu "Red Cross" unit on the top floor and mapped a program of giving aid around the clock to those who might succumb to this new chal lenge to our debilitated endur ance. All of the prisoners donated the few medicines and vitamins they had on hand to the medical pool. We all knew now that there was no turning back in our hun ger strike plan. But few of us, if any, dared to think where it might lead and how long we could carry it through. The die was cast. I shall always remember May 21, 1962.
