Marine Role Spelled Out
By Shoup at Reunion

The Marine Corps will hope
for peace. but be ready for
strike. Marine Commandant
David M. Shoup told several
thousand World War II Lea
thernecks at a reunion here last
night.

wound-pp a busy week end for
the World War II veterans who
came here from all over the
United States and overseas to
swap stories of the war years.
Ready To Go

reason for having a Marine
Corps is to have an amphibious
force ready, willing and able to
go anywhere, anytime, in any
kind Of transportation, and
tangle with our country's en-
emies. when necessary.
Ambassador Romulo said,
"The unprecedented welcome
to President Eisenhower was
the Philippine peoples way of
telling the world that their
faith in America is whole and
unimpaired. This is the es-
Sence of loyal friendship.
1--WE can everyday riots, snake
dances, hate slogans and we
can magnify the Importance
of security treaties but in
the long run, at the base of
all, what is important is for
us to have friends, tested and
true, who whenever the show

Strong Action
0nCuba Urged
BY the Associated Press


Representative Rivers, Demo-
crat of South Carolina, told the
House yesterday the United
States should be prepared to
occupy Cuba if necessary to
protect American lives and
property there.
This man is crazy" Mr..
Rivers said of Cuban Premier
Fidel Castro. IF we tell that
bunch of idiots we aren't going
to stand for any more of this,
it will stop"
Mr.. Rivers accused Castro of
seeking to take over Latin
America" and of wanting to
communize Cuba.
I'VE must use every sanction
a tour command to stop this
evil man to remove this
cancer" he said. Our State
Department does not grasp the
significance and gravity of the
situation"
Mr.. Rivers said the United
States should serve an ultima
tum on Castro that it will take
adequate steps," including a
blockade and occupation if
necessary, to protect United
States lives and property in
Cuba.
Representative Bow, Repub-
lican of Ohio, said Mr.. Castro's
actions amount to plain old
blackmail and should be treat
ed as blackmail." The United
States, Mr.. Bow said, should
tell Castro that it will not per-
nit him to take over United
States property. I'VE should
tell him that if he does, we're
coming in and taking it back" !"

Work at Lunch
Another thing Miss Scarlet
admits she's mot very keen
on" is being required to eat
lunch with her students.
"It's like a workman eating

Humanity has never wit
messed a worse massacre than
those at Hiroshima and Naga-
Saki," said Mr.. Castro in a
televiSion broadcast, his eighth
public address in the last 20
days.
Then he went on to echo Mr..
Khrushchev's denunciation OF
the U-2 spy plane, President Ell
senhower'S Inflated plan for
a visit to Japan, the fall Of pro-
American governments in South
Korea and Turkey. and the as
sertion that the United States
is governed today by a military
oligarchy.
Early Seizure Seen
Persons who studied 'Mr.
Castro's words carefully said
his latest speech convinced
them:
l. Mr.. Castro will not wait
for a reduction of Cubza's sugar
quota to the United States to
carry out his threat to seize
United States property in Cuba.
They expressed belief he will
make that move as soon as the
United States Congress auth
orizes the President to reduce
sugar quotas in "the national
interest of the United States"
2. Personal pride. plus the
problem of finding storage
space for Soviet crude oil now
flowing into Cuba, will force
Mr.. Castro to act-probably
before the end of June -
against the foreign oil COM
panies who rejected his orders
to process the Russian oil.
8. That there Is no apparent
hope-short of American sur
render to Mr.. Castro and his

an improvement in relations
between Cuba and the United
States. Many sources here say
a complete break in relations,
only a slight possibility a
month ago, is now a proba-
bility.
In his threats to seize al
most a billion dollars worth of
American investments here,
Mr.. Castro ignored the fact
that more than a third of those
investments are already in the
hands of his government.
Most of those seizures have
been in farm lands and cattle
ranches, including cattle and
equipment, and in the take
over of the American-ow

What next?
The contract may we'll depend

eyebrow and curl the upper lip.
The right line of play begins
with the trump suit. You must
draw the second round of
trumps from the South hand.
This leaves you in position to
lead the deuce of diamonds
toward the dummy.
Two Extra Chances
Playing the diamonds first
gives you two extra chances for
the contract. West may have

ace Of diamonds.
If Vests ace Of diamonds Is
singleton, he will have to play
it at once. Later, you will cash
the king Of diamonds and get TO
dummy to discard a club on the
queen of diamonds.
AS the cards lie, West does
not have the singleton ace of
diamonds. He plays low, and
dummy's queen wins. You re-
turn a diamond, and West must
win with the ace.
Now your second chance
works. West must lead a club,
since a spade would allow you
to ruff in dummy and discard
a club from your hand.
When West leads a club, you

The Air Force has Cancelled
plans to shoot a super-Atlas
nearly 5000 miles from Cape
Canaveral past the tip of AT
rica over the Indian Ocean
One unconfrmed report was
that President Eisenhower per-
sonally turned down the idea.
The Air Force has had the
beefed-up Atlas missile on a
launching pad at Canaveral for
days, and actual firing times
had been set several times and
then postponed because OF
weather conditions.
When these plans became
known in high Washington
circles. the State Department
repeatedly raised the point that
no public notice had been given
so ships could avoid the impact
area. Air Force officials argued
this wasn't necessary because
the rocket was intended to burn
up in the atmosphere at the
end of the trip and would pose
no danger.
