Middle East is ready at your

There were repercussions in
the Middle East, where the
rival ambitions of President
Nasser of the United Arab Re-
public and those of Gen. Kas-
sem have clashed.
Arab Council May Meet
A dispatch from Damascus
said the Arab League Council
may hold an urgent session
soon to take up what was
called the Iraq-Kuwait crisis.
Informed sources in Damas-
Gus said. however, that a coun-
Gil meeting might be delayed
until attempts at mediation
have been made.
Damascus newspapers BAN
nered Gen. Kassem's claim
without comment other than
to call it surprise. But Mr..
Nasser has shown more than
passing interest in Kuwait and
its future.
The UAR President recent
ly sent Sheik Abdullah a warm
message q. congratulations on
Kuwait's independence.
There was wide speculation
that Saudi Arabia, another
neighbor of Kuwait, might OBJ
ject to Gen. Kassem's move.
In his statement, the Iraqui
Premier insisted that Kuwait
belonged to Iraq by historical
right.
Gen. Kassem told a news con-
ference last night the take
over would be peaceful and the
ruling sheik would be named
chief administrator of the ter
ritory.
Gen. Kassem, who led the
revolt that toppled 1raq's
Hashemite monarchy in 1858,
warned the sheik, however
that if he misused his office,
he would be considered rebel
lious. He aided that he be-
lieved the ruler would not do
that.
Kuwait ranks fourth in world
oil production after the United
States, Venezuela and Russia
Iraq's output was more than
800 million barrels in 1859.

arrival from Havana Saturday
Mr.. Hooker has insisted he
is not negotiating with the
prisoners but only serving as q
contact between them and the
members Of the committee
Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt. DR.,
Milton Eisenhower and Walter
Reuther, head Of the United
Auto Workers.
Informed sources said, how
ever. that Mr.. Hooker's con-
tinued contact with the pris-
oners indicated a new approach
may be made to resume the
stalemated negotiations.
New Proposal Indicated
When questioned, Mr.. Hook
er said he could neither con-
firm nor deny such a poSsibil-
ity. One or the prisoners
privately indicated that Mr.
Hooker was offered a new pro-
posal during his brief meeting
with them yesterday.
Negotiations for the prison
ers' release broke down Friday
when Fidel Castro rejected q
final" offer of 500 general
purpose tractors from the com.
mittee. At that time he said
he would send 10 prisoners back
tqtthe United States to explain
his position in the negotiations
The same prisoner group visited
Miami and Washington last
month after Mr.. Castro first
voiced his demand for SOC
heavy tractors. E
When asked about the $2S

as Days or More" Given
Mr.. Carlo also told the Asso-
ciated Press that Mr.. Castro
had given the prisoners "15
days or more" in which to COM
plete their mission.
I'VE still haven't decided
whether we'll take all the time,
he added.
Mr.. Carlo also indicated the
prisoners had reached no de-
cision on whether they might
make a direct public appeal fol
funds if no action is taken by
the tractors committee.
I'VE are still thinking II
over" he said.
Before meeting with Mr.
Hooker yesterday, the prison
ers appeared gluTn. Later they
cheered up, and many spent
the evening on the town. Sew.
eral others remained in their
hotel to chat with friends and
relatives.
Earlier an immigration Off
cial had indicated the prisoners
might have failed in their mis-
sion. He said there is always
a possibility the prisoners may
be returned to Cuba" and EN-.
phasized they had been ad-
mitted to the United States ION

Perhaps the legal punishment for
the oftenSe is not severe enough to
cause any parental worry but the
danger involved should certainly be
plain enough to bring about some sort
of control.
Anyone who drives an automobile
knows that the hazards of the city

understandable chnaces for mshap
such as mechanical failure, a bee fly-

growing season this has been. The preacher came
up with a good statement about tobacco. "Well.
tobacco is weed. And you know how hard it is
to kill weed. so, 1t takes mighty unusual and
difficult season to eradicate this weed crop like
any other such member of this family With the
rain cold wind hail and everything else that plagued
this 1861 crop becomes evident that it is difficult
to kill it completely. Tabor City'S tobacco market
has sold right much more tobacco than year ago
and have talked with many farmers who say
they have sold from percent to Is percent more
tobacco the than they did last year.
Couple that with sky high price and you can find
little to believe the local tobacco economy
