Seized by Castro
Both Refused
To Process
Soviet Oil

ESSo STANDARD Oil re1nery was
taken over by the Cuban Pc
troleum Institute today and
similar action was started at
the nearby Shell Oil refinery.
Both firms had refused to
process Russian crude oil.
The action occurred after
Prime Minister Fidel Castro'S
agents rode across Havana
Bay on barges filled with So
Wet crude.
The agents acted under res

ordering them to seize the re-
f1neries in order ito protect
sources of essential fuels for

The takeover itself was a
mere formality. The two re-
flneries already were in the
hands of Cuban workers
backed by armed colleagues
and militiamen. Just before
the takeover, telephone call

swered by a Cuban who shout
ed "the Fatherland or death"
the new rallying cry of the
Castro regime.
Crude reserves in both re-
fineries are extremely low, with
Shell having only enough on
hand for three days normal
operation and ESQ even less,
company executives reported.
The seizures would place
Cuba's entire petroleum indus
try. valued at nearly $3.50
million, in the Sf4ands of the
revolutionary government. Two
days ago, Castro seized all
Texaco Oil Co. property, in
cluding its Santiago refinery,
in similar move.
Based on 1888 Law
Mr.. Castro acted through
identical resolutions that ac-
cused both ESQ and Shell OF

The bill was Immediately
sent to. the Senate, where each
side was allotted two hours for
debate before voting later this
afternoon.
Although the Democratic
leadership in the Senate ex-
pressed confidence that the
veto will be overturned there
by a margin of at least three
or four votes, administration

Republican Senators vote to
sustain the veto.
Several Republican Senators
who had pledged to vote to

decided to back the President.

Senate Majority Leader john

confidence the Senate also
would upset the veto. And pay
