Figure in TrujiIIo Case
Had Hospital Post Here

Staff members at Children's
Hospital recalled today that
DR.. Robert Reid Cabral, re-
ported to have killed himself
following the assassination of
Dominican Dictator Rafael
Trujillo, was a conscientious
and devoted resident at the
hospital for a year.
DR.. Reid became affiliated
with the staff in 1855, after
his graduation from the medi-
cal school of the University
Of Santo Domingo.
..We will remember him as
a very nice fellow, well liked
by everyone at the hospital
and very good to the children"
one of the hospital staff said.
What no one could under
stand was the possibility that
DR.. Reid had become involved
in Dominican politics to the eX-
tent that he would voluntarily
assist the Trujillo aSsassinS.
According to dispatches. DR..
Reid gave haven to four asBas-
sins and later cut his throat
with a penknife.
DR.. Reid was said to have
explained before his death that
the four threatened his life,
and that of his wife, if he
went to authorities.

Cuba HOLDINGS
Face Seizure

MIAMI. June 9 (AP)-
Cuban property in the United
States was up for grabs today
by Americans whose holdings
in Cuba were confiscated by
Fidel Castro.
Circuit Judge Hal P. Dekle
yesterday ruled that any Cuban
property found in this coun-
try can be attached. He found
in favor Of Terry Kane, who
contended that the Cubans
confiscated $22.50O worth of
farm equipment in his tractor
agency.
Judge Dekle's ruling skirts
the so-called foreign acts doc
trine under which the United
States Supreme Court since
1897 has held that the courts
of one country will not judge
the acts of a foreign state
within that country's own terri
tory.
There is no relief any
longer afforded in the Cuban
courts or with the Cuban gov
ernment," Judge Dekle said.
He added that his ruling
was founded on a principle that
in the event Of a breach of
international law, this mon
intervention" by the courts
should not apply. He. said the

ment has found Castro'S con-

The committee told Mr..
Castro it had designated a
technical committee to discuss
with you or your representa-
tives the details of our pro-
posal related to types Of agri-
cultural tractors and attach
ments best suited to increase
agricultural production and
raise the living standards of
the Cuban people =.
1T is, therefore, imperative
thai arrangements be made so
that the meetings between our
representatives will take
place under circumstances
where serious and constructive
discussion of the problems will
be possible, free from intrusion
by any persons not directly
involved"
Named to the technical COM
bittee were Prof. Roy Bainer,
head of the University of Cali
fornia agricultural engineering
department; william Bishop,
leader of agricultural pro-
grams for the University of

tural engineering department.

So Million Cost Seen
The experts said the esti-
mated cost of the 500 tractors
would be about So million. The
Castro regime took the prison.
ers in the unsuccessful Cuban
invasion in April.
'1he committee said earlier
1t was not prepared to offer the
same type of tractor Mr..
Castro had specified. It said he
wanted a model which normally
is used for construction pur-
poses. It said so of the 500 trac-
tors it is offering can be used
for clearing land while the rest
are best adapted to Cuban

Fidel Castro said today Cuba

is made not by news agencies
but by the revolutionarieS."

This is a name that has been

Ours was not a revolu-

Free Inquiry
ByDonlinicans

CIUDAD TRUJILLO, Domin-
ican Republic, June 9 (AP).-
Rafael Trujillo's political heirs
have assured the investigating
committee from the Organiza-
ton of American States a free
hand for their inquiry.
Augusta Arrange of Panama,
the head of the OAS mission,
told a news conference Presi-
dent Joaquin Balaguer and
Foreign Minister Porfirio Her.
rera Baez had promised their
governments complete cooper
alton at a meeting yesterday.
The mission came to Ciudad
Trujillo Wednesday to deter
mine if the Dominican govern
ment is making good on its
promises since Trujillo's assas-
sinatlon to end repression and
lay the basis for a democratic
system.
Sanctions May Be Lifted
The mission will report back
to the OAS Council, which then
will decide whether to lift eco
nomic and diplomatic sane
tions voted against Generals
Simo Truillo's dictatorship last
summer. The Trujillo regime
was in effect, voted out of the
family of American republics
because of rs implication in
an attempt to assassinate Pres
ident Romulo Betancourt of
Venezuela and the widespread
denial of the Dominican peo-
pies human rights.
Mr.. Arrange said his groups
first step would be to visit all
political prisoners and their
relatives. He said the govern
ment had authorized this and
that the investigators expected
to talk with the prisoners pri-
vately, not in the presence of
other Dominicans.
Mr.. Arrange said the mission
also plans to check conditions
in the interior of the country
to check conditions outside the
capital.
Asked his initial impression
of local conditions, he replied:
What we have seen so far
indicates that the country is
calm, tranquil and orderly, and
I think that is the impression
which some Of you gentlemen
also have"
The mission had an appoint
ment this afternoon to see Gen.
Rafael L. Trujillo, jr., who be-
came chief of the armed forces
after his fathers assassina-
ton.
Mourning Ends
The nine-day official mourn
ing period for the slain dicta-
tor ended yesterday after re-
QUEEN masses, and activity in
the streets of Ciudad Trujillo
quickened noticeably. Radio
stations switched from classical
music to gay Latin American
tunes and the latest American
