A professor who once flunkeo
Fidel Castro in history says
Cuba is now a place where
children spy on parents and
parents on each other.
"Fidel Castor is creating q
country without a soul, and a
family life worse than that Of
the apes" says Prof. Herminio
Portell-Vila, a former history
instructor, scholar and diplo-
mat.
Prof. Portell-Vila is now q
refugee in the United States.
He entered by way of Canada IN
July, 1860, after being guar
anteed a safe = conduct to that
country by Brazil.
The 60-year-old professor
yesterday addressed the Pan
American Liaison Committee of
Women's Organizations on
THE Cuban Family Today" at
the National Housing Center,
1925 L street NV.
Women Get Shock
He sent an audible gasp of
shock through the clubwomen
when he quoted from portions
of a letter he said was sent
September 10 from Bayamo,
a small city in eastern Cuba.
Fifty-two mothers had signed
the letter, which read in part:
Ion the day and hour on
which the police will come for
our children we will deliver to
them corpses ;"
This. Prof. Portell-Vila said,
was a reference to the increas-
ing control over children ex-
ercised by the Castro regime,
including placement Of the
children in "Circulos Infantil"
between the ages of 3 and 10.
In these 'Children's Circles, d"

first given rifles for service in
the militia.
Prof. Portell-Vila says he

Defining the Goals
Needed at Summit

SpllleQ Lne Deans on CneSe talks
last week; thy were supposed to
be secret, or rather, the fact that
they were to be substantive, not
procedural, was supposed to be
secret.
The United States still denies
an intent to negotiate substance.
This denial Is for the record. Un-
less something very startling hap
pens to reverse present plans, the
June negotiations will pick up
where Gromyko, Stevenson, and
McCloy left off.
When President Kennedy and
Premier Khrushchev meet, they
will kick off the June arms nego-
tiationS. This is one Of the many
things which give the coming Big
Two summit such Importance.
United States arms policy has
jelled on one key point: Washing
ton is going to buy" general and
complete disarmament. Indeed, the
United States will go further; it
will take Mr.. Khrushchev's vague
sketcn of utopia and fill in all
the gorgeous details. Washington
plans to out-utopia utopia.
This business of proclaiming
fidelity to the millennium takes
time and energy away from prac-
tical negotiations on immediate
steps, it is realized. But it is con-
sidered necessary. Those, includ-
ing this correspondent, who have
urged that it be dispensed with
have been overruled.
Whot Could Be Done
What Mr.. Kennedy and Mr..
KhruShchev could conceivably &C
complish-no doubt the best re-
motely attainable result which
could come out of their meeting
would be an agreed formulation
Of the goal, joint description Of
utopia.
There already is, broadly speak
ing, agreement in theory between
East and West that it would be
nice if all national ornaments
would be scrapped, if the U. N. had
power to solve disputes that arose.
and If a U. N. police force could be
established to suppress any ag-
gression that took place despite
peacemaking efforts.
No one in his right mind really
expects to attain these goals in
the Goth century, so long as-to
mention only one obstacle-nu-
clear weapons can be hidden
where an inspectorate could not
possibly find them. But If both
sides feel impelled to pay these
goals obeisance, at least the cere-
mony of dedication could be held
jointly, to avoid interminable
competition in ritual and pag-
eantry.
That over with, the real nego-
tiation on immediate practical
steps could begin. This is what
East and West tried to do, each
in its own way, last spring in
Geneva. They tried to arrange to
bury the pageantry.
1t was a futile exercise under
conditions then obtaining. Per-
haps this time, If Mr.. Kennedy
and Mr.. Khrushchev can prepare
the ground, the world will be
spared q frustrating propaganda
merry-go-round.

Segregotion:
Anniversary

Last ednesday was the
seventh anniversary Of the Su-
preme Courts school desegrega-
tiOn decision. The fight was still
going on.
Violence pursued groups Of
freedom riders" travelling through
Alabama last week to test color
barriers in Southern bus stations.
The first group Of II crusaders
ran into a club-swinging mob last
Sunday, and had to call off the
rest of their trip. Howling crowds
later in the week besieged two
other groups of white and Negro
college students from Tennessee
who attempted to continue the
trip. Bloody rioting was still going
on in Montgomery last night.
A crowd Of angry white people
was waiting when the Greyhound
bus carrying nine Of the integra-
tionistS arrived last Sunday at
the station in Admission, about so
miles inside Alabama. Members
Of the crowd smashed windows
on the bus and followed in cars
as the driver tried to make it to
from the Admission station, the
bus had a flat tire. A bomb was
tossed through the window OF
the stalled bus.
Twelve passengers, including the
freedom riders, were treated for
smoke inhalation. The bus was
destroyed.
The remainder Of the freedom
riders were met by a terrorist mob
when the railways bus they were
riding arrived at Birmingham.
White men welding pipes and
sticks besieged two Of the travelling
crusaders as they tried to enter
the waiting room, a newspaper
photographer was beaten and his
camera smashed.

White Victims

White Alabama residents were
victims of violence in Sylacauga
last week end. One white couple
was taken from their home by six
white men, forced to diSrobe, and
flogged. Their attackers accused
them Of dealing with Negroes be-
cause they occasionally hired do
mestic Negro help. A white
widower who employs a Negro
maid to care for his children
was similarly beaten. One man,
a textile worker, has been arrested.
The seven years since the Su-
preme Court decision find only
four Southern States Alabama,
Georgia, Mississippi and South
Carolina still have completely
segregated public school systems.
In Georgia the city of Atlanta is
preparing to begin desegregation
next fall in obedience to Federal
court orders.

Fight on Crime

A House Judiciary subcommit-
tee continued hearings on legisla-
tion dealing with the fight on Or
ganized crime. Attorney General
Robert F. Kennedy testified, pre-
senting figures putting the cost
Of crime at $22 billion a year. He
said the bills would enable the
Government to proceed more ef-
fectively. One of the main provi-
sionS would make it q Federal
offense to travel across state lines
for the purpose Of aiding racket
eering. He noted that most of the
big-time gamblers employ couriers
to travel about the country COL
lecting their profits. He also asked
for a law prohibiting the use Of
interstate communications for
the transmission of organized
gambling information.
These were by no means all of
the hearings of the week. On
Wednesday, an average day, there
were Is Senate committee sessions
and 18 in the House. Somewhere
in this multitude of witnesses and
words were sleepers that would
break into open headlines some
day. But last week they didn't.

other in achieving that will. He
philosophers that if killing should
be necessary for food or for the
killing Of bacteria, that our con-
science should be such that we
will attempt to make atonement
to other living things around us.
There are many other facets of
DR.. Schweitzer's philosophy that
are important. but this is his basic
teaching. He pleaded with the
Schweitzer scholars who were in
our party to simplify his teach
ings-to make it understandable
for the "lady who works in the
laundry" This was one of the
purposes Of the philosophers who
journeyed to Lambarene-clarifi-
cation and the composing of a di-
gest for simplicity.
Atom Test Problem
They received from the doctor
some thoughts on his great cur
rent concern: The testing Of atomic
bombs. He firmly believes that the
most serious problem with testing
is the radioactivity it generates.
He says frankly that he believes
that the fourth or fifth generation
will grossly reveal the error of our
ways. Unless checked, he says,
children could be born almost un-
recognizable. Even today, he fears,
everybody is more or less radio
active and with additional testing
will become more so.
A memorable experience was
New Years eve at Lambarene. We
were invited to go at 1870 pm.
to have cookies and punch and to
see the new year in. At midnight
the doctor, his staff and the visit
ing philosophers sat in silence as
a large bell chimed in the new
year. AS saw the man who has
heard 86 such bells, I got the feel
Ing that new year wasn't born
but that an old one was to be pro-
longed at his request.
1t was my early observation,
that people read into DR.. Schweit-
zer, what they want to read into
him. After two weeks in his COM
pany, I believe this more firmly
than ever.
People who doubt the existence
OF Divine Being as the creator
Of earth, read DR.. Schweitzer's
confirmation Of that belief. Others
who believe in a personal God, see
DR.. Schweitzer asking grace by
thanking God for the food and
for his friendship. In witnessing
this they assume he shares their
belief. They hear him read Scrip
lures nightly and explain those
Scriptures. Others accept his
teachings: That Christ was not
necessarily divine in origin-he
wrote a book, The Historical
Jesus" explaining his thoughts
yet others point out that no man,
certainly in modern times, has
more closely emulated the life Of
Christ in very deed.
DR.. Schweitzer actually believes
only that which he has expert
enced. I asked him, If a man is
born with the will to live, isn't it
conceivable that he also dies with
the will to continue Immortality.
His answer was: This is hope,
not experience" 1t Is his belief
that this world is filled with those

large-lesS than 2 million-so it
wouldn't take long.
Nothing so indelicate as whole
sale bloodshed between the two
big brothers" has ever taken
place. The Chinese were the con-
trolling influence from 1888 to
1911. In the turbulent 13 years
before the Soviet Union helped to
set UP Mongolian Peoples Re-
public in 1924, the area Shuttled
back and forth politically. Japan
had hoped to profit by the con-
fusion, but couldn't quite bring
it off.
So, now it appears that the Chi
nese want to resume their historic
role. And George Kennan, Russian
expert and former Ambassador to
Moscow, in the current Atlantic
Monthly" says this:
1T will be interesting to see how
long Russia will be able to retain
her hegemony in Outer Mongolia
now that the alternative to it Is
not japanese power but the power
of China itself"
Under Soviet "hegemony" the
Mongols have learned to read and
write and to know more about
scientific animal husbandry to
help strengthen their livestock
economy Soviet encouragement to
wake up and live and be our
little brother" has also brought
unexpected results. The MongolS
resisted successfully attempts at
collectivization of themselves and
their herds.
Some observers believe that this
tiny flame Of nationalism could
be nurtured by recognition and
acceptance into the United Ma
tions. For how also, they argue,
can these people-wedged between
two giants-assert themselves?
Although both giants seek rec
ognition for the buffer between
them, neither might relish too
much Western influence on the
MongolS any more than we delight
in the Soviet influence in Cuba.

in excellent health, physically and
mentally.
One of the things I observed
about DR.. Schweitzer is the pro-

On Recognizing Outer Mongolia
BY ANN COTTRELL FREE
Contributing Writer

SSANAASASAAb "A4NSA
Outer Mongolia sometimes seems
more remote than outer space, but
there's a chance that, like the
moon, 1t may be coming closer.
If certain New Frontier" diplo-
matte maneuvers succeed, the
birthplace of Cenghis Khan
located in the center of the Com
munist heartland of Asia-could
once again play an important role
in world affairs.
Two steps are under conSidera-
ton:
United States approval Of ad-
mittance to the U. N.
United States diplomatic recog-
milton.
Feelers being put out by the
Kennedy administration were
strongly urged a year ago by
Senator Mansfield, Democrat of
Montana.
Senator Mansfield reminded that
in those deserts and mountains of
Central Asia the outward pulsa-
tions of Chinese and Russian
society converge. :"
Failure to use this area as a
listening post, he warned, may be
"imprisoning ourselves from a
most valuable source of informa-
ton and official contact in the
heart of Asia. out of inadequate
facts, inertia or fear of derision."
If the Mongolian Peoples Re-
public QtS name since 1924 can
satisfy State Department require
ments of independence, it could be
recognized. But this would mean
accepting its claim that it is a
truly sovereign nation able to con-
duct its own international affairs.
United States diplomats, once in
side the country, would shed light.
however, on many mysteries-in
particular, the nature of tensions
between Communist China and
the Soviet Union.
Vote for Soviet Bloc
The cost of accepting Mongolia
In the United Nations could be
one more vote for the Soviet bloc.
But that might be neutralized by
admittance of Africa's Mauri-
tania. This country, whose ter
ritory Morocco claims, has been
opposed by the Soviet Union un-
less Outer Mongolia is admitted.
Abreast of all these complexi-
ties of a power politics poker
game, the Kennedy administra-
tion, at least, is not Slamming the
door on any thought of Outer
Mongolia being accepted as did
the previous administration when
the matter came up in 1865. The
United States made this clear in
the U. N. General Assembly on
April 10. 1t is believed also that
the Chinese Nationalist govern
ment, hard pressed as to holding
its own U. N. seat, might not exer-
else its vote against Outer Mon
golia If this comes to Security
Council vote.
In today's atmosphere of every
one busily creating a public image
of himself, Outer Mongolia should
be regarded as a success. Since
earliest times it has created a
tantalizing image Of remoteness
and mystery.
