Nixon's Trip to Poland
Seen Diplomatic Test

heaval, Warsaw in the United
States view has gained greater
independence from Moscow
than the bloodily reconquered
Hungary.
Carefully seeking to nurture
this trend. the United States,
since 1857, has expended $243
million In aid to Poland, mostly
for food. The United States and
Poland recently agreed to open
consulates reciprocally In Poz-
nan and Chicago. Negotiations
are underway on large United
States claims for American
owned property nationalized by
the Poles.
These dealings, and relatively
friendly treatment Of Amer
leans in Poland, are unknown
in United States relations with
the other satellite countries.
While the Vice President is
not expected to get into any

the Polish government. the sig

not be lost on diplomats.

said.
If the transit company rec
concentrations are approved, it
would mark the first change in
Federal employee hours since
January. 1912, when the A
hour work week was effected.
The staggering of work hours
was begun in March, 1941, on
order by President Franklin D.
Roosevelt. Then there were
100000 Federal employees.
Purpose Of Staggering
Purpose of the staggering was
to get Government workers to
start and end their work day
at different times to avoid
flooding public transportation
and roads.
This system is not working
now" Mr.. Goad said. Too
many changes have taken place
to make it practical.
Possibly the biggest reason
outside of Government growth,
he said, is that some Govern
ment departments have moved
into completely new locations
and taken their old hours with
them.

IL years ago while serving in
the United States armed forces.
Mr.. Del Pine was In Wash
ington in April and 1t was an
nounced that a movement
headed by him had been
launched to overthrow the
Castro government. He charged
that Mr.. Castro, a former
friend when they attended the
University Of Havana. was fol-
lowing in the footsteps Of the
Soviet Union.
Mr.. del Pine formerly be-
longed TO Mr.. Castro's 26th Of
July Movement and was one Of
the original group OF revolu-
tionaries gathered in Mexico
early in 1856 to plot an in
vasion Of Cuba.
Mr.. Castro has accused Mr.,
del Pine Of having betrayed
him for $4,000 by tipping
Mexican police to the plot. Mr..
Castro and several rebels were
arrested and their arms cache
seized.
American Citizen
Mr.. Castro was later released
and a reorganized group Of so
rebels sailed to Cuba and land
ed in December, 1866.
Mr.. del Plno's injuries were
described as serious but not
critical. officials said he had a
bullet wound in one leg and
burns.
Although Mr.. del Pine is a
United States citizen, the Gu
ban government is expected to
treat him as a Cuban counter
revolutionary.
Hundreds of thousands of
Cubans will mass in the heart
of the capital tomorrow On the
sixth anniversary of the 26th
of July movement which over
threw the dictatorship of Full
gencio BatiSta last January.
There they will shout their
demands that Mr.. Castro, the
man they call the maximum
leader of the revolution. resume
the Office Of premier.

announcement will come. it is
believed, under the most dra-
matte circumstances possible
when he addresses a huge and
potentially explosive rally at
the Civic Plaza late Sunday.
The rally will climax the
celebration of the sixth ami
versary of the 26th of July
movement, a celebration that
has brought several hundred
thousand machete bearing
peasants into Havana.
Mr.. Castro seemed to indi-
cate Wednesday that his de-
cision would be to resume Of
fee when he declared he would
put the question to the people
during Sundays celebration. He
said he would take this course
80 the enemies of the revolu-
ton will have to close their
mouths
No Doubt Seen
There is no doubt that if the
question is put to them the
peasants - or "guarjiroS," as
they are called-will respond
with a thunderouS demand
that the bearded young leader
they adore return to the top
Office of government.
But because Mr.. Castro has
set a pattern of unpredictable
behavior, there are a few OBJ
servers who say he might de-
eide to remain out of Office
and use his Civic Plaza speech
to convince the throngs that
this is the wise course.
This concededly is only an
outside possibility. But there
are factors which seem to sup
port it.
. It is known he does not like
the administrative work or the
attention to details required of
a premier. He enjoys running
the show, which is the preroga-
tive Of the prime minister, but
the fact is that he will run it
whether he holds public office
or not.
One Reason
This is represented as one
reason for his reluctance to re-
turn to the job ne quit eight
days ago for the joint purpose
of ousting Manual Urrutia as
President of Cuba and proving
to the world that he is undis-
puted leader of the Cuban
people.
Mr.. Castro did not join the
government when his revolu-
tionary army overthrow PreSi-
dent Fulgencio BatiSta last
January /. He waited until the
middle of February before TAX
ing the reins as prime minister.
Served Six Months
He served only six months
and, from the standpoint Of the
revolutionary movement, he
accomplished a great deal. His
government ended corruption
slashed rents and launched the
agrarian reform program.
That is what he promised to
do. and at the moment the
masses of Cubans are ecStatic
over what he accomplished.
From the practical political
point OF view, now is a gOoc
time for him to step from pub
lie to private life.
A rocky road lies ahead for
the government. 1t must make
the agrarian reform program
work. 1t is beset bv intern
economic problems, idleness OF
construction workers ana cane
field hands, and momentous
problems in foreign relations
The man at the helpo is headed
for lots of credit or lots Of
blame.
