Cuba ExiIes Map
New Government

MIAMI, Fla. Oct. 7 CAP).-
An organization of Cuban judi
ciary in exile has launched a
new movement for a govern
ment in exile aimed at uniting
Cubans opposed to Fidel Castro
In a proclamation read at a
news conference yesterday, the
Association of the Cuban Judi
ciary in Exile named DR.. Julio
Carceran de Vail y Souza, for
mer senior justice of the
Cuban Supreme Court, as Pro
visional President of the Re-
public of Cuba"
The association, which has
30-odd members, said it had
remained aloof until now from
the activities of the various
Cuban exile political organiza =
tons trying to establish a
united front against Premier
Castro.
Through all these months
we have watched the endless
political pickering and the in
terested partisan struggle of
the political leaders," the
proclamation said. I'VE can
not remain silent any longer. +"

Urge to Emigrote to u. S. Eases

problem. but not sufficiently
to warrant mass emigration
overseas. The Rome govern
ment is trying to establish
industries in the south. In
the more critical areas, the
unemployed are being moved
to the north; or they are
being settled temporarily in
Germany and France. And as
soon as new opportunities
open in the homeland they
are called back.
The more adventurous
young men who have dreams
of striking it rich are no
longer cycling the United
States despite our large Ital-
ian population, but are aim
ing at Australia or South
America where there is an
increasing demand for un-
skilled labor. The Italian
government directly or indi-
rectly encourages only tenn
porary emigration to nearby
countries. And the unem-
ployed Italians prefer to go
to Germany, France or Swift
zerland because they can re-
turn home for l5-day vaca-
tions for as little as $40
round trip. In a number of
contracts with Italian labor
ers. the foreign employer
agrees to pay fare back home
for short holidays.
The booming economy Of
Western Europe and the Stor-
les of unemployment in the
United States have drastic
ally curtailed the demand for
emigration to America. OF
course, the stories Of Amer
lean riches and opportunities
to become millionaires over
night, as often shown in thu
movie theaters of Italy, still
dazzle many Italian youths.
But this glamorous picture
of America begins to fade
when relatives in America
write that they won't be able
to remit as much as in the
past. either because income
and other taxes have gone up
or because some member of
the family in America has
been unemployed for some
time.
How times have changed.

ROME, Italy.-Liberaliza-
ton of the Walter Met arran
immigration Act to permit
more immigrants, particular
ly from southern and south
eastern Europe. seems to be
more important to American
politicians than to the people
in these areas.
Except for those who have
prosperous relatives in the
United States. there is little
enthusiasm tt emigrate across
the North Atlantic these days.
There is full employment in
Western Europe.
Switzerland, Germany and
France have a serious labor
shortage. German industry
is begging for more workers
and so are the German farms.
This situation prevails de-
spite the fact that close to
8 million East Germans have
gone over to the West. Dur
ing the 1860 lean years
when a carton of American
cigarettes would purchase a
Dresden china vase, Ger
man nationals from the East
were a problem for the Bonn
authorities. Now they are
considered a blessing.
The 1000 or more East
Germans who arrive weekly
from behind the Iron Cur
tain are Immediately absorbed
in the prosperous West Ger
man economy. But these peo-
pie are nowhere near suffi-
cient for the demands of the
booming German industry.
There are three jobs avail
able for every employment
seeker.
In order to satisfy the de-
mands of the employers,
agreements have been made
with Italy to send approx
mately 10000 of its unem-
ployed in the south to West
Germany. Bonn recently an
nounced that there are this
year $4,000 vacancies for

for themselves and, in the
case of married men, for
their families who have re-
manned in Italy.
But this source of labor is
drying up because of the in
creased production and in
tense economic activities in
Italy, itself. The German
government is making ar
rangementS to import labor
from Turkey which continues
in the throes of economic de-
preston. So far, some 10000
Turkish workers have arrived
in various industrial parts of
Germany. In addition to this
direct arrangement with the
Ankara government, every
day there is a queue of sew
eral hundred young Turks in
front of the German Consul
late in Istanbul seeking visas
to go to Germany where they
are sure to find employment.
France also has a labor
shortage, especially in the in
duStrial areas. Besides Ital-
ianS and Spaniards, a num-
Der of Poles are being ad-
mitted temporarily as sea-
Sonal workers in France.
Italy, which used to have

Budget Seen

Secretary of Defense McNa.
mara has drawn guidelines fol-
a new military budget that
could reach $50 billion-which
would top this years by about
$3.5 billion.
The current military budget
the highest ever passed in
peacetime-was increased about
Sc billion from last year after
President Kennedy ordered an
increase in conventional mill
tary power to meet the Soviet
threat in Berlin and elsewhere
in the world.
Pentagon sources stressed
however, that any overall esti-
mate at this stage must be con-
sidered extremely tentative.
They said the process of dis
tilling and shaping a military
budget for the 1868 fiscal year
is only getting under way in
earnest. More precise figures
may not be arrived at until
mid-November, if then.
Mr.. Kennedy will present the
military budget to Congresssin
January. 1t will be for the year
starting next July.

nonofficial publication close to
the services.

porter the $53.71 billion figure
is considerably high of the

 Kendall objected to published statements by Rep. William Erwin that the general obliga- tion bonding measures which have been introduced in the house, in- cluding the big ferry bill, will not be considered until the appropri- ations bill is ready for presenta- ton.
 "I would like to know why we must wait until the last few days of the session to consider these major bills which involve so much money" Kendall said.
 Erwin replied that he consider ed the bonding measure an integ- ral part of the state budget-and should be considered with the budget.
 ''Is that the opinion of the Rules Committee-or is that your pri- vate opinion Rep. Henry Pratt asked Erwin.
 "That is my private opinion," Erwin replied
 Rep. Donald Harris, a mem Der of the Finance Committee, climbed in with the opinion that he felt tieing the bonding issues to the budget was "purely politi- cal"
 Rep. Mark Jensen asked Erwin when he anticipated Rules Com mittee meeting to decide when the bonding measure would be brought out to the floor.
 'T don't anticipate Rules Committee decision," Erwin re- piled. That decision will be made in Democratic caucus"
 Kendall jumped to feet to say that he had asked the original question "because the Legislature is judged as whole - not as Democrats or Republicans - and I want to see us out of here in 60 days"
