leaders who will help improve
the hemisphere climate.
Responsibilities of the Unit
ed States in the current crisis
are not being overlooked in
Latin America.
Many who discuss the prob
lens Of peace and democracy
believe Washington must shed
it's timidity in dealing with the
other Americas and must act
with bold decision.
1t is felt that North Ameri-
cans are too sensitive about
oft-repeated charges of i'm
Iperialism" and the colossus"
of the north.
Latin America expects the
United States to adopt policies
which are firm as well as fair,
to state its position and adhere
Irigidly to it.
The Latins are encouraged
by Santiago. They are pleased
that the foreign ministers dis
approved anti-democratic re-
gimes and rejected the idea
that invading expeditions can
force democracy upon a
country.
They believe the United
States can play a more effec-
tive role in the hemisphere.
In short, modern Latin
America wants the United
States to exercise more leader
ship. They believe this can be
done without violating the
principle of nonintervention in
others affairs.

TURMOIL IN THE CARIBBEAN
Strong Democratic Forces
Opposing Dictotorships

alton Of Santiago depends on
many things and many people.
1t depends, first Of all, on sup
port of the established inter-
American institutions, such as
GAS.
Much depends on Fidel Cas-
tro-not only in Cuba but
among all the Latin Americans
who admired his exploits and
whose hearts were lifted be-
cause Of the success Of his revo-
luton against Fulgencio Ba-
tista.
II DR.. Castro's influence is
to be beneficial. he is going to
have to mend some of his ways
and revise some of his atti-
tudes.
Program for Castro
In his own country, where
the masses worship him. the
young Prime Minister should
desist from the same kind of
dictatorial practices he ascribed
to the despot he dethroned.
He must realize he lacks ex-
perience as an administrator
and therefore must accept
counsel from competent adj
visers. He must show tolerance
toward those who dare express
views at variance with his own.
DR.. Castro should desist from
the incorporate attacks he
makes upon the United States,
for without our country the
Cuban economy would collapse.
Furthermore. the Cuban peo-
pie he leads have genuine af-
lection for the United States.
The Prime Minister must stop
encouraging exiles from other
lands to train on Cuban soil for
their efforts to overthrow gov
ernmentS back home and he
must stop permitting the exiles
to launch their expeditions from
this island.
Time for Trujill0 to Act
DR.. Castro has been playing
it cozy with Communists too
long. If he did not suspect the
Reds at the start, he has been
told about them since he took
Office. 1t is time he recognized
the Communist danger, time
he eliminated subversiveS from
government and otherwise
curbed Communist influence in
this country.
DR.. Castro is not the only one
who can help ease the tension.
Perhaps it is too late even to

wish for this. but Generalissimo
Trujillo could carve a higher
niche for himself in history II
he really wanted to. He still
could liberalize his hold on the
Dominican Republic, as he so
frequently has been urged
He is now SO, In the goth
year Of his reign. He could
make a distinct contribution,
If he wished, by finding some
Dominican citizens qualified to
run the government when he
passes from the scene. He
could train them and prepare
them for public service.
AS matters stand, the old
dictator has made no adequate
arrangements for a successor
1t is entirely unlikely that his
brother or his favorite son or
any other relative could fill
the bill. So when he goes. Gen.
Trujillo is going to create a
vacuum In which the Com
munist he hates will try to
step.
Nicaragua Changes Sought
In Nicaragua. President Luis
Somoza Rebayle is more ac-
ceptable to liberals than his
father, Gen. Anastasio (Tacho)
Somoza. But his critics think
he could do much more to meet
the realities of 1859. And they
insist that unless he does some
changes will be made.
Among the public officials in
Latin America emerging as
respected statesmen is Presi-
dent Romuulo Betancourt of
Venezuela.
Though a left wingers and a
former Communist, his per-
Torrance in six months as chief
executive of the democracy re-
placing the Perez Jimenez die
tatorship, has pleased conserva-
tiveS as we'll as liberals.
He. too, has difficult and nu-
merous domestic problems. But
he meets them resolutely while
running coalition government,
and he will have no truck with
the Communists who now har-
raSS him.
Expected TO Last
In the opinion Of reputable
observers in Venezuela, he will
last as long as the army stands
behind him.
President Betancourt's hatred
OF Generalissimo Trujillo is as
intense as anyone's. He would
like to help ease other dictators
from Office.
But he disapproves Of Prime
Minister Castro's inflammatory
outbursts against the strong
men and he wants no part of
involvement with invading ex-
petitions. This is helping him
acquire respect in international
affairs.
There is no link between the
capitals of Venezuela and
Cuba. This is helping Presi-
dent Betancourt's reputation
in international affairs and he
is counted upon as one OF the

Republics Begin Program
The foreign ministers Of 81
American republics, aroused
and alarmed, have begun
graphing with the problems
and will press a program for
cooperative efforts to ease the
tensions.
In the Declaration of Santi-
ago, written at their recent
meeting in Chile, the ministers
asserted that anti-democratic
regimes violate the principles
upon which the Organization
of Am erican States was
founded - principles in which
the American Governments be-

only for trucks or jeeps. Scott said the cars radiator burst. He drove on, thinking they were pointed toward Moab - by now more than 40 miles to the north east. Then the crankcase oil pan ruptured and their car quit.
 ''We survived by keeping cool under the dirt" Scott said after their rescue, drinking water, about a pint from the radiator, one spoonful every 212 hours. All we had to eat was some salmon eggs, and we tried to eat cactus but our mouths were so dry we couldn't swallow it.
 we gave the children the ra- diator water after trying to purify it by straining. It had a per- manent type anti-freeze in it, not the poisonous denatured alcohol type.
 Scott explained that the family buried themselves in sand up to their necks, to avoid the burning rays of the sun. Relatives in Moab reported the Scotts missing when they didn't return Friday.
 Two fliers, searching for the Scotts, saw the car near an sos" sign made of rocks.
 ''When two fliers reached US this morning." Scott. said, "the kids were bursting with laughter and then they started to cry - and so did we. I don't see how we survived as long as we did and I'm sure we couldn't have made it through today"

Freak Weather Harnesses Most of U. $.

Thunderstorms dumped more heavy rain across wide areas of the east today after scattered out breaks of violent weekend weather.
 Four persons were killed when lightning struck tree on a crowded Bronx beach Sunday in New York. Four others were in- jured a few miles away when another bolt of lightning hit near the Bronx Zoo.
 Heavy rains and fierce winds smashed power poles and trees in several Maryland communi- ties near Washington.
 The far west, except for some coastal sections, continued in the grip of hot spell. Temperatures were expected to reach 100 as far north as interior Oregon during the afternoon, and go well over 100 again in the southwest desert.
 It was hot night near the Cali fornia-Arizona border where min imum temperatures were gener- ally in the sos. Needles, Calf, had 115 degrees Sunday and Phoenix, Ariz., 106. To the north, tempera- lures included 99 at Spokane, 98 at Salt Lake City; 97 at Boise, and 92 at Portland

WHITEHORSE, Y. T., LR - Queen Elizabeth II was expected to resume her whirlwind tour of the Canadian Northwest today after losing a day because of an upset stomach.

New Western Offer Made at Geneva

GENEVA, LR mn In an. effort to find a way to end the Berlin crisis, the West proposed to Rus sia today the creation of a con- tinuing conference of foreign min isters, with East and West Ger man advisers, to negotiate a Ger man peace settlemnt.
 U. s. Secretary of State Herter presented the Western compromise offer, after rejecting a proposal by Soviet Foreign Minister Gro myko for formation of an all-Ger- man committee to negotiate uni fication and peace treaty during an 18-month Berlin truce.
 'EThe purpose of the Soviets in putting forward the proposal is all too clearly to perpetuate the par tition of Germany" Herter said in a speech to the Big Four in a for nal session at the Palace of Ma tionS.
 He then made the Western coun- terproposal, which would retain direct power responsibility for German unification and peace treaty, but would specifically pro- vide for increasing contacts be- tween Germany and Communist East Germany.

 Diane didn't die. Neither did Mrs. Scott, her husband Virl, 37, or their five other children, ages to 12. A search plane spotted them Sunday, where their ear had stranded them for two days in the remote country of standing rocks.
 They drove into the rugged, treeless country Friday morning, to see the breathtaking view from Dead Horse Point, a bluff that overlooks the convoluted Colorado River Gorge. It's about 35 miles southwest of Moab, the nearest community.

Red Revolt Stems
 From Arab Unrest
By JOSEPH E. DYNAN

BEIRUT, Lebanon, R - Pre- mier Abdel Karin KuSsem's re- gime claims it has smashed a pro Red revolt and army mutiny in. Iraq's northern oil fields, but press reports to Cairo and Damas- GUS say clashes are continuing.
 Arab dispatches said hundreds of casualties had resulted from the fighting which broke out We'd nesday, while Iraq was celebrat- ing the anniversary of Kassem's. 1858 overthrow of the Iraqi mon- archy. The entire northeast area was reported to have been in a state of near civil war.
 Iraq's military governor, Ahmed Saleh Abdi, declared in a Bagh- dad broadcast that there had only been scattered clashes and that order had been restored.
 From Baghdad also came an appeal by Kassem to "those who have strayed to go back to the right road" In the toughest tone he has yet used, Kassam declared: "We will settle accounts with any and all who attack the liberty of the people,"
 Incidents occurred elsewhere in Iraq, including fatal attack on one of Kassem's top aids in Baghdad.

AEC Tries l5-Year Test of Radiation Effects on Dogs

WASHINGTON, R m If they can beat the law of averages and the laws of nature, the Atomic En- ergy Commissions pack of hound dogs may become bowling scien- tific successes.
 At least one of them will have to live to the ripe old canine age of IS years. If he makes it, he will be the hottest dog in history.
 The law of averages is against the approximately AGO dogs of the AEC being used in a 15-year ex- pertinent on the effects of radia- ton. The average life of a dog, say commission experts, is to 10 years.
 And the laws of nature, as cur rently interpreted, say that not even the average dog can stand the amount of radiation the com missions animals will be exposed to. But pr. c. L. Dunhamn, direc- tor of the AEC division of biology and medicine, said he has ia hunch that the last dog may live as long as 15 years from birth"
 If the doctors hunch is right, the beagle or foxhound that sur wives is likely to be so hopped-up from radiation that he could tree a rocket.
 Dr. Durham explained the ex- periments to the House Appropria- -tions Committee during recent hearings on the AEC's fiscal 1860 budget. The experiments have been going on since 1851.

Cuban Farmers
 March on Capitol, To Castro Support

HAVANA, R - Thousands of straw-hatted, machete carrying peasants are arriving early for a demonstration next Sunday of support for Fidel Castro and his agrarian reform program
 The revolutionary leader him. self was in seclusion today. There was some speculation that he might not take back the prime minister's post he resigned Fri day. Possibly he might pick some one to carry out his policies while he devotes most of his time to the land redistribution program. In any case, he clearly will continue to boss Cuba.
 The farmers were Spilling into Castro's capital from as far as 800 miles away, answering the call of their bearded leader for 50O,- 900 to attend the anniversary celebration of Castro's first un- successful attack July 26, 1853, on Fulgencio Batista's forces.
 The first 5000 - from Oriente Province - marched up Havana's famed Prado Sunday to a brass band.
 Cuba, meanwhile, rocked along with standstill government, waiting to learn what Castro plans to do. But the new president, Dr. Osvaldo Dorticos, told a Boston radio station by telephone that he considers Castro still is prime minister.
 The 40-year-old lawyer also said that former President Man uel Urrutia, whom Castro forced out of office Friday, was in no danger in Cuba and probably would remain in the country. Ur- rutia was at the heavily guarded home of his brother-in-law out side Havana.
 Dorticos said the guard had been requested by the ex-president.
 Castro accused Urrutia of near treason because he had spoken of a Communist menace in Cuba after the ex-chief of the Cuban Air Force, Maj. Pedro Luis Diaz Lang, told U. s. Congressional committee that Castro and lead CTS of his government were Com munists.
