Consequently, the various de-
fense units are expected to pro-
vide many more overseas as
signments for their civilian en-
ployes than they've had in the
past.
Until now, civilian employees
did not have any statutory
rights to their old jobs. This
discouraged employees from TAX
ing overseas assignments as
well as making the Defense
Department reluctant to pro-
vide these assignments.
Now. however, defense off,
cials predict a new era in CIV
ing employees overseas tours of
duty to broaden their exper-
fence, improve their chances
for advancement. These over
seas assignments for the most
part will be Of two years dura-
ton.
Under the new law, the en-
ployes on their return to the
United States will be guaran-
teed their old Jobs back. If
their old position no longer
exists, they will be assigned to
a comparable job. II no COM
parable position exists. they
will be entitled to a new job
to be created for them for not
longer than 90 days, during
which time effort will be made
to place them in a permanent
assignment. Failing that, they
will be given reduction-in-force
Dumping" rights in a further
effort to place them.
However, for all intents and
purposes. employees. returned
from overseas assignments will
be guaranteed jobs at least as
good as the ones they held
before going overseas, defense
officials say.
Defense officials declare that
1t Is almost 100 per cent GER
tain that returning employees
will find jobs waiting for them.
The new law does not apply
to civilian employees already
stationed overseas. It will ap-
ply to employees assigned over

Mr.. Castro also took note OF

He accused privileged coun-
ter-revolutionary" elements OF

Americans Attacked
During one scuffle between

youths yesterday, an American
woman and her two sons were
dragged from a passing car and
the eldest boy was beaten or
the head with steel bars after
he started to take pictures oi
the fight. 1t was the first
known physical attack on
Americans here since Mr.. Cas-
tro took power.
Mr.. Castro was visibly dis.
turbed by the prospect of the
Security Council action leaving
the United States-Cuban dis
pute up to the OAS. The
United States, he declared i;
Judge and jury" in the
hemisphere body because most
of the nations are small and
impoverished like Cuba and
"Cuba's disadvantage in a dis
pute with the powerful United
States in the OAS is clear.
1t would be therefore vulner-
able to the same weapons the
United States has used against
Cuba"
Cuba wants the dispute aired
in the U. NJ, Mr.. Castro said
because United States influence
is less there than in the OAS
Mr.. Castro termed President
Eisenhower'S new aid proposal
for Latin America an admis-
sion of Washington's moral
defeat"
With gold now they seek to
buy reason, that's Washington's
mentality-to resolve problems
with money, money, money" "
he asserted.
Defends Russian Help
He defended his own accept
ance of Soviet economic offers
and indicated he would accept
Russian military aid, saying:
IF you know you are going
to be murdered and some one
comes and tells you he is going
to help keep you from getting
killed, are you going to reject
that help?"
Mr.. Castro called the Monroe
Doctrine ancient and worm
eaten" and accused the United
States of using it to assume
the right of piracy"
1T converts us into protec-
torates and they are the su-
preme judges" he cried. I'VE.
