Fidel Ends Long Visit In Russia MOSCOW lUPIl - Western diplomats said Saturday the com munique marking the official end of Cuban Premier Fidel Castro's visit to Russia was an "impres sive diplomatic triumph" for Premier Nikita Khrushchev over hi foes in fieri China. So far as is known, Castro still is in Russia. He is believed to be discussing economic aid with Khrushchev today in the Black Sea resort of Pitsunda. However, the secrecy that veiled Castro's flight from Cuba to Rus sia suggested that the first an nouncement of his departure will be w ithheld until he is safely back in Havana. The publication of the communi que indicated all his major busi ness in Russia was finished. Its major points were: Khrushchev will visit Cuba, at date not yet set. An American attack on Cuba could precipitate "a devastating nuclear-missile war." Castro approved Khrushchev's "firm stand" during the Cuban crisis of last October and agreed that "in our time there is no in evitability of war." This last point was of major interest to the Moscow diplomatic community. It seemed to embody, a striking diplomatic victory for Khrushchev in his ideological bat tle with Peking. When Khrushchev promised to1 pull his missiles out of Cuba without consulting Castro, many observers predicted the bypassed Cuban would swing toward the! Chinese in their dispute with thcl Kremlin. Friday night's communi que was interpreted as evidence that Khrushchev had kept Cuba on his side instead. After the Cuba crisis, tlie Chi nese accused the Russians of be ing "timid as mice" when faced with the roar of the American "paper tiger." Khrushchev replied that the "paper tiger has nuclear teeth" and held to his theory that war is not the only route to victory for communism. The communique said "it was confirmed by the Soviet side that if any attack was made on Cuba in violation of the commitments undertaken by the U.S. President not to invade Cuba, the Soviet Union will render to the frater nal Cuban people, the necessary aid for defense and freedom and independence with all the means at its disposal." There was no precise indication what other price Castro exacted for his support of Khrushchev's policies.

At a news conference Wednes day. President Kennedy exhorted Wallace to obey the law of the land." but made it clear that the Administration would iasure com pliance, if necessary by (lie use of federal troops. Friday the Justice Department filed suit in a Birmingham fed eral court to enjoin Wallace from blocking desegregation of the uni versity. District Judge Scybourn H.

Frequently, when an old, slow and dangerous highway is recon structed or a new freeway built to replace it, users begin to re alize direct benefits almost at once. These benefits are easily measurable, the Bureau of Pub lic Roads found, and they include the following: (1) reduction of ac cidents, with subsequent reduc tion of accident costs; (21 Re duction of traveling time, and (3) reduction of vehicle operat ing costs, for both commercial truckers and private motorists. expected to trigger similar moves! by oilier Communist bloc nations Vatican: A chronic stomach ail ment recurred with Pope John XX11I, requiring blood transfu sions and cancellation of several Papal commitments.

The popularity of tlie toll roads in the East and Midwest has been a real eye-opener to highway economists. Motorists may not al ways appreciate gasoline taxes, but they are apparently willing to pay toll charges to ride on good roads, even though such charges may be equivalent to a gasoline lax of 20-23 cents per gallon. The fact Is that motorists given a choice prefer to pay for good roads. Los Angeles motorists figure they spend (our cents a mile less in time, accident, and hide operating costs on their freeways than commuters on con ventional street systems.
