Cuban Press Plays Up
Support by Mexican

HAVANA, July 8 (AP). -
Government-controlled news
papers today headlined reports
of Mexican support for Cuba
in its dispute with the United
States.
Both Revolution and Ell
Mundo cited statements by
Emilio Sanchez Piedras, chair
man of the Permanent Commits
sion Of the Mexican Congress,
declaring Mexico is backing
the Cuban people against the
United States.
The Mexican backing came
as Fidel Castro's government
last night rejected the United
States protest against seizure
Of American and British oil
refineries in Cuba. The govern
ment charged the foreign oil
companies were trying to "re-
turn Cuba to colonial depend
ence on foreign economic in
terests."
Cuban youth and labor groups
called for demonstrations be-
fore the Mexican embassy to-
day to thank Ambassador Gil
berto BoSques for the support.
Ell Mundo declared in a
front-page editorial that Cuba
by standing UP to the United
States was living its most

studded with appeals for q

a Castro rally at the Presiden-
tial Palace. All sports events
have been Cancelled in Havana
to insure a maximum gather
ing. The rally was called to
show support for the Castro
regime and opposition to the
United States.
In rejecting the United
States protest, Foreign Min
lister Raul Roa accused the
United States of being false,
hypocritical and malevolent, d"
in saying the ref1neries were
taken over illegally last week.

Mr.. Roa also rejected a
British protest against the
seizure, but only the note to

Visitors Say Mikoyon
Would Sign Attest Ban

MOSCOW, July 8 (AP).-A
group of visiting Americans
quoted Soviet First Deputy
Premier A. I. Mikoyan today as
saying he believes East-West
talks have reached a point
where an agreement banning
nuclear weapons tests could be
signed.
The Americans, who talked
with Mr.. Mikoyan for three
hours in the Kremlin yesterday,
said he added that If President
Eisenhower should order re-
sumption of United States nu-
clear tests, the Soviet Union
would be obliged to do likewise
and the President would place
himself under the fire of world
opinion"
Mr.. Mikoyan has been acting
chief of the Soviet government
in the absence of Premier Mkt
ia S. Khrushchev on a visit to
Austria.
War Horror Cited
John Crutcher of Hutchin-
son, KanS., said Mr.. Mikoyan's
main theme was that the pros
pect Of war now has become so
horrifying as to make it abhor-
rent to all mankind. and that
thus the Soviet Union is pro-
posing complete and universal
disarmament.
To be effective, Mr.. Mikoyan
was quoted. disarmament must
surely include (Communist)
China as one Of the signato-
ries." He also commented that
1t was high time the United
States recognized the existence
Of Red China.
The American group visiting
Mr.. Mikoyan was led by Je-
rome Davis, who was head of
the American YMCA relief ac-
tivitieS in Russia at the time of
the 1917 revolution and who
interviewed Joseph Stain soon
after Stain assumed full pow
ers several decades ago. Three
years ago Mr.. Davis and his
group had a three hour inter-
view with Mr.. Khrushchev.
Claim Astonishing"
Mr.. Crutcher said his group
found astonishing" Mr.. Mi
koyan's claim that the USSR
would overtake the United
States standard of living in
eight or nine years, although
he said Mr.. Mikoyan conceded
it might take IL or 13 years il
the United States rate oi
growth should be stepped up.
Another member of the
American group, Mrs. Sally
Halmi Of Clearwater, Fla, re.
marked that she felt sorry
when she saw Soviet womer
doing heavy manual labor. Mr.
Mikoyan was quoted as re.
plying:
Il, too, am indignant when
see women doing hard labol
and men doing easier work

New Lamp Generates
Light BrighterThon Sun

NEW YORK, July 8 (AP)-
A new atomic lamp that gen.
crates a light brighter than the
center of the sun was reported
yesterday.
Instead of spreading out in
all directions like ordinary
light, this light sends out par
allel beams that drift apart
only 200 feet in 1000 miles.
scientists said.
The atomic lamp with a syn
thetic ruby at its heart has been
dubbed a Laser" by scientists
who developed it for Hughes
Aircraft Co., Culver City, Calf.
They claimed:
1t could fire an inch-wide
beam of light the distance from
Los Angeles to San Francisco
without spreading more than
100 feet.
Or it. could send a similar
beam of light the 250,000 miles
to the moon, and illuminate an
area only 10 miles wide at the
lunar surface.
Such a light can produce
"the purest colors known or
could be used as a light radar
to make clear observations at
great distances. 1t thus might
be useful in space communica-
tionS.
Since such a device can be
used to amplify or heighten

well as generate light on its
own, it can help man get more
detailed pictures Of distant

seizure Of the American -owned
ESQ and Texaco refineries and
the British-Dutch Shell plant.
Rejected Soviet Oil
All three ref1neries had re-
fused to process Soviet crude
oil acquired by Cuba under Its
sugar-for-oil barter agreement
with Moscow. The companies
said they could not desert their
traditional sources Of supply
In Venezuela.
The government seized the
refineries under the 1888 min
ing law providing that private
companies must process state
owned raw materials If the
government orders them to do
so. The American protest said
they were exempted by a 1854
law, passed under the Batista
dictatorship.
Turning aside the question of
legality - Castro's government
refuses to recognize many Ba-
tista laws - the Cuban reply
said the Cuban courts and not
the United States Government
would interpret Cuba's laws.
The foreign ministry accused
the two American companies
of "the crime of economic boy
colt" against the Cuban people,
of trying to paralyze Cuba's oil
supplies and Of undertaking
measures constituting the in
ternational crime of economic
aggression"

Palmer Park
Rezoning
Fight Fails

A curb on rezonings within
rural planned communities in
Prince Georges County was held
invalid yesterday by Circuit
Court Judge John B. Gray, jr.
Judge Gray made the ruling
in upholding a rezoning by the
County Commissioners of a ST.
acre tract for a regional shop
ping center in Palmer Park.
The tract at the intersection
of Sheriff and Landover roads
was rezoned by the commits
SionerS last December at the
request of the owner, Harry j..
knott. a Baltimore developer.
The land, part of the Palmer
Park Rural Planned Commu-
nifty, originally had been
planned for single-family resi-
dences.
An RPC is a subdivision es-
tablished to be self-sufficient
with certain areas set aside for
homes. apartments, churches,
schools, parks and shopping
centers.
A group of Palmer Park resi-
dents, who fought the rezoning
before the commissioners, ap-
pealed the decision of the Cir
cult Court. The residents con-
tended, among other things,
that regulations for an RPC
require rezoning within a COM
munity be approved by all res
idents living in it and the Mary
land-National Capital Park and
Planning Commission.
Judge Gray held that the
commissioners can rezone with
in an RPC as well as any other
part of the country. 1--WE don't
think that such a planned COM
munity is necessarily frozen for
all time" he said.
Judge Gray said the commits
sioners we're justified in finding
that new road networks pro-
posed in the vicinity Of the
tract make 1t more suitable for
commercial than residential
uses.
