into the delicatessen resulted
in a dozen policemen being
sent to the scene.
When they arrived, the two
intruders ran into an adjoining
apartment building and raced
out the front into the street
where they did some broken

1t. Winters said that one of
the pair had something shiny"
in his hand so police opened
fire. He added that they
learned later it was a screw

The two, he said, had made
a lot of noise breaking into
the delicatessen. An IRON
barred outer door had been
pried off its hinges and the
glass pane and wooden panel
of an inner door had been
smashed, he added.
1t. Winters said that he fired
three shots at the fleeing pair,

FromAid Plan,
Aiken Asserts
Declares Presidents
Halt Of Fund Switch
A Costly Victory
BY J. A. O'LEARY
star stan Writer

Senator Aiken. Republican Of
Vermont, today accused PreSi-
dent Eisenhower Of pulling the
rug" from under the strongest
supporters Of the foreign aid
program and predicted it may
lead to further cuts in his pro-
gram next week..
The New Highlander said Mr..
Eisenhower won a costly VIC
tory by blocking the Foreign
Relations Committee plan to
switch the development loan
fund from annual appropria-
lions to long-term Treasury
borrowing.
He referred to the compro-
mise adopted yesterday, au-
thorizing 50 billion of appro-
priationS for two years in place
of IS billion over Ave years. For
the coming years the COM
promise is limited to $3.50 mil
lion, which is only $50 million
more than the administration
recommended.
Votes on Other Cuts Delayed
The Senate last night put off
until Tuesday votes on pro-
posals to cut other parts Of the
bill, as Congress closed down
for its last long week end be-
fore heading into the home
stretch Of the 1859 session.
Senator Fulbright, Democrat
Of Arkansas. who had spon-
sored the long-range borrowing
plan as chairman of the COM
mittee. also expressed disap-
pointment. He said the Senate
had "cut the heart" out Of the
program and that his enthusi-
asm for the bill has evapo-
rated"
Senate Democratic Leader
johnson joined Republican
Leader Dirksen in working out
the compromise, however, to
head of a parliamentary ma
newer which might have en-
dangered the policy Congress
has followed for a quarter of
a century of financing housing,
farm benefits and many other
spending programs.
Case Raises Point
Senator Francis Case, Repub-
lican of South Dakota, had pre-
cipitated the showdown by
raising a point Of order against
taking money out of the Treas
ury for foreign aid loans with
out an appropriation. A test
vote Wednesday night indi-
Gated a majority might have
sustained the point of order.
That would have established
a precedent on other spending
bills.
With the adoption of the
compromise, Senator Case
withdrew the point Of order.

they thronged the roads, trains,
planes and buses to leave town.
The prospect of beautiful
days and cool nights doubtless
contributed to what may be a
record-breaking exodus to
beaches, mountains and other
cities. But while thousands
left town last night and this
morning, a majority of the
people in and around Washing
ton were planning to celebrate
the glorious Fourth at local
civic celebrations or just in
their own backyards.
Celebration at Monument
The main celebration starts
at the Monument Grounds at
7 pm. tomorrow with q day
light fireworks salute. The
program includes band music,
patriotic speeches, a massing
of the colors and a beautiful
pyrotechnic display as soon as
it gets dark.
Like other Government en-
ployes, President Eisenhower
has the week end off. How
ever the Chief Executive plans
to fly back from his Camp

quarters tomorrow long enough
to lay the cornerstone Of the
Capitol'S new east front at
noon.

The Nations new 49-star flag
comes officially into existence
at l minute past midnight to-
night. 1t will take the place of
the 48-star banner that has
Symbolized America for Al
years.
Designed for inclusion of
Alaska as the 49th State, the
new red, white and blue stand
ard will be raised in ceremonies
at Fort McHenry in Baltimore
and at independence Hall in
Philadelphia.
The Capitol and the White
House also will hoist new flags.
Many other Government
buildings will continue to fly
the old 48-stsr flag because
hundreds are still on hand. It
will be legal, both for the Gov
eminent and for private citi-
zens, to fly the old-style BAN
ners until they wear out.
Alaska became the 49th State
last January, but under the
law a new flags birthday must
await July 4. Hawaii is ex-
pected to become the 50th State
soon, but a new 50-star flag
will not become official until
July 4, 1860.
First Change Since 1912
The last change in the flag
was in 1912. Then, in the adj
ministration of President Will
liam Howard Taft, stars were
added for New Mexico and
Arizona.
The first official raising of
the 49-star emblem will take
place at 1901 am. at Fort
McHenry following re-enact-
ment of the British lombard
ment of that fort in 1914. 1t

in a case they described as
having "the most important
counter revolutionary implica-
tons"
Troop reinforcementS are re-
portedly moving into Eastern
Cuba, where Al persons have
been arrested for acts of sabo-
tage, and into Western Cuba
where guerrilla bands are OPP
Grating in the mountains.
Much of the unrest stems
from the governments agrarian
reform program breaking up
big estates.
Believed Batista Men
Among the eight men seized
in the Havana raid were six
police described as former
military men," The implication
was they served in the forces
under former dictator Fulgen-
clio Batista.
Behind the plot, police said,
were ex-senator Rolando Mas
ferrer. now in Miami, Fla. and
Jose Pedraza, a former general
who now shares Gen. Batista'S
exile in the Dominican Re-
public.
The upsurge of anti-Castro
activity during the past month,
with rash of minor explo-
Sions and acts of sabotage, has
brought a government order
decreeing the death sentence
for counter-revolutionary acts.
The unrest shook the revolu-
tionary armed forces when Air
Force Comdr. Pedro Luis DiaZ
LAM resigned, charging Com
muniSt inflltration of both the
armed forces and the govern
ment.
Prime Minister Castro told a
televiSion audience last night
that the Diaz resignation was
a "traitorous act" timed to
coincide with a period Of diff
cult international relations for
Cuba.
T.. s. Influence Hinted
Although Castro did not spell
it out, his lengthy indictment
of Comdr. Diaz was heavily
sailed with suggestions that
the airman was influenced by
United States interests.
Mr.. Castro said it was curl
GUS that American news
agencies had the story of the
resignation a day before the
Cuban press got it.
He accused Comdr. Diaz of
inefieiency and nepotism,
claiming he operated the air
force for his family's benefit.
Mr.. Castro said Comdr. Diaz
gave the second highest job in
the air arm to his twin brother
Marcos, whom the Prime Minis
ter labeled as known conf
dant of American police"
Communism DiSclaimed
Mr.. Castro declared that if
Comdr. Diaz, who has gone into
hiding, is caught he will face
a military tribunal.
Documents which the ex-air
force chief left behind, Mr..
Castro said, sounded like propa-
ganda from the Dominican Re-
public and the Rosa Blanca"
Society, an anti-Castro organ
ization in the United States.
Mr.. Castro disclaim d
Comdr. Diaz' charges of COM
muniSm in the air force by
stating that Russia was too
far away from Cuba to exert
any influence.
In an obvious reference to
the United States, he expressed
a desire that other nations
that exploit us" we're equally
distant.
