HAVANA, April 6 (AP).-I
Firing squads executed two
more Cubans in La Cabana
fortress today, raising to COL
the unofficial total Of persons
executed by Prime Minister
Fidel Castro's regime since he
took power on January l, 1859.
Those shot were Carlos
Manuel Delgado, convicted of
shooting a close friend of
Economic Car Ernesto (Che)
Guevara, and Dalmacio Pal
mont Solet, accused of plant
ing bombs in movie theaters
and other buildings. They were
condemned by separate mill
tary tribunals last night.
Delgado was convicted of
killing Capt. Hector Salinas
last month in suburban Mira
mar, near a residence owned by
Mai. Guevara. The Staying led
to speculation that an attempt
had been made to assassinate
Maj. Guevara, but this was not
mentioned at the trial.
Government prosecutors said
Delgado fled after being stopped
by a policeman and later
shot Capt. Salinas, who had
Joined in the chase.
The two tribunals last night
also sentenced "a persons to
prison for terms ranging from 8
to 80 years on charges Of coun-
ter-revolutionary activities.
A fire broke out last night in
one Of Cuba's largest sugar
mills, formerly the American
owned Hershey mill, 40 miles
east Of Havana. Damage was
estimated at upward Of 50 mil
lion. Officials blamed sabo-
teurs.
Meanwhile. the Castro regime
announced it had smashed two
counter-revolutionary bands
operating in Oriente Province
and captured seven insurgents.
The Ministry of Armed
Forces charged that the in
surgents were supplied by the
United States Naval Base at

CubunAbuse
OF Prisoners

The United States Govern
ment yesterday accused Cuba's
Castro regime Of maltreating
United States citizens held in
Cuban jailS.
The State Department said
officials are not giving enough
food and medicine to the Amer
icans-and also are stopping
United States gift foods and
medicines from reaching the
prisoners.
About % American citizens
are reported to be in Cuban
prisons under various SEN
tenceS.
The jails are already over
crowded with Cubans impris-
oned by the pro-CommuniSt
Castro government.
State Department Press Of
ficer Joseph Reap said he does
not know whether the Ameri-
cans are getting worse treat
ment than the others, or
wheher their food supply had
been cut to the point Of star
vation.

the list could go on endlessly.
There were even two American
gangsters.
Some were innocent, and
others had played the game
against the government and
lost. They had been caught
planting bombs. carrying prop
aganda, smuggling arms, selling
underground bonds, or fighting
in the mountains. These were
some Of their accomplishments,
representing the many ways in
which Cubans are fighting Fidel
Castro.
But guilty or innocent, they
knew they were in the same
boat and a tremendous bond
existed between them.
When ! see q man being led
out of here to go to La Cabana,
I feel as If I am losing q broth
err" a young prisoner told me.
Until I came here I never real
lied what an emotional tie I
felt with those who are fighting
in this cause. I love these men
here"
Everything Was Shared
1t wasn't long before ! no
ticed that the desperate posi-
ton which all these men shared
seemed to bring out the very
best qualities in each of them.
Never once in that hot, over
crowded cell did I ever hear
an argument. Everyone seemed
eager to do something for
someone else. Everything was
gladly shared.
This strange bond also
showed itself in another way.
Almost every day several priS-
oners would be taken from the
cell to 60 to La Cabana. Some
would soon die in the dry moat
Of that old castle, and every
one knew it.
The men would say good-by
to those who remained, and
they would march out Of their
cell. And then, in identical
scenes that I will never be able
to wipe from my mind, those
who stayed behind would begin
singing the beautiful and STIR
ring Cuban National Anthem.
Around me I could see tears
rolling down the cheeks Of
men as they watched their
comrades walk away.

am sure. And I am just as
sure that If the constituents
of the Messrs. Gross, Smith
and company really favored
the bill, they would vote for
it.
The culprit-if there Is a
culprit-is the people, not
Congress.
And 1t is not the Iowa
cornseed alone who is at
fault the sophisticated
dweller in such centers Of
culture as New York and
Washington is just as guilty.
Where's Our Interest?
Subsidy, I think, should be-
gin at home.
Is it not a remarkable
thing that in a city with a
population of more than 10
million. Carnegie Hall, which
seats a paltry few thousand,
is not consistently sold out?
Is it not amazing that tickets
for the New York Philhar-
monte are easily purchasable?
Why is it impossible to find

manner, than we have been
in the past-in any practical
sense.
Everyone seems to be run
ming as fast as possible on a
treadmill and getting no
place quickly.
Why is this so?
Well, Federal subsidy in
evitably involves the Con-
gress of the United States,
and those who follow these
matters closely were recently
given a short course In the
congressional facts of life.
Bill Defeated
During his 1855 "state-of-
the Union" address. President
Eisenhower recommended the
establishment of O Federal
Advisory Council on the Arts.
The idea attracted bipartisan
!: support, and ever since then
strenuous efforts have been
made to get a bill setting up
such q council enacted into
law.
AS it was written, the pro-
posed legislation was quite
innocuous-it was a subsidy
bill only in the sense that a
modest sum for the councils
expenses could be construed
as a subsidy for the arts.
The entertaining debate in
the September 20 Congress

MeSSrs. Thompson. Kearns.

Of Virginia, Landrum, and
Hoffman Of Michigan COM
on the Federal Arts Council
bill CHR 4172) should be
required reading for everyone
interested in the subject.
The bill, needless to say,
was easily defeated.
People Are CuIprits
1t is a natural tendency,
upon hearing such news, to
belabor the Congress for ir-
responsibility, lack of intel
ligence, hidebound conServa-
tism, and just plain obstruc-
tionism.
1t is true that it is difficult
to maintain equanimity in
the face Of Representative
Smiths question about
whether the bin would sub
sidize poker players that get
in trouble" because sit was
suggested that poker play
ing was an artful occupa-
ton" And Representative
Gross bland statement that
"the spending of 100000
each year for this purpose.
for culture, can very we'll
wait until we have a balanced
budget in this country and
. start retiring the Federal
debt" is not calculated to
soothe.
But it is conveniently for
gotten that the Congress
does, in fact, quite accurately
represent its constituency.
Behind the defeat Of the
Federal Arts Council bill is
