Kennedy Hits
Move 10 Shift
Cuba Blame
BY the Associated Press

President Kennedy has again
made it clear that he takes
full responsibility for whatever
part the United States played
in the ill-starred Cuban inva-
sion.
The White House issued a
statement last night which
said:
President Kennedy has
stated from the beginning that
as President he bears sole re-
Sponsibility for the events Of
the past few days. He has
stated it on all occasions and
he reStates it now so that it
will be understood by all.
THE President is strongly
opposed to anyone within or
without the administration at
tempting to shift the RESPONSE
bility."
No Elaboration
There was no elaboration to
the White House statement but
it apparently was prompted by
sharp Republican reaction to
a remark by Secretary of the
Interior Udall tying in former
President Eisenhower with
early planning of last weeks
rebel landings in Cuba.
Gov. Nelson Rockefeller of
New York and former Presi-
dent Harry Truman were to
be filled in today on Mr.. Ken
nedy's Cuban policy.
Mr.. Kennedy invited the Re-
publican Governor to the White
House for a mid-afternoon
briefing on the invasion and
the problems of combating
Communist Fidel Castro'S
Cuban regime.
And he assigned Vice Presi-
dent johnson to fly to Mis-
souri, for a similar talk with
Mr.. Truman.
Undecided on Future
While the effect of these
croSs-party discussions may be
bipartisan support for any
future moves by Mr.. Kennedy
against the Castro regime, in
formants said this was not the
Presidents purpose.
These sources said Mr.. Ken
nedy had neither asked nor
received commitments of sup
port on any future Cuban &C
ton, and that Mr.. Kennedy
hasn't decided what specific
steps he will take.
The briefings were described
as an exchange of views on
what has happened.
With his statement last night
reaffirming his responsibility,
Mr.. Kennedy sought to stamp
out any party-line row over the
Cuban invasion and its failure.
The statement came after
Senate Republican Leader
Dirksen protested a remark by
Mr.. Udall that the invasion had
been conceived during the Eli
SenhoWer administration.

sion promises to be anything
but serene.
These developments In
France coincide with q new
appraisal of the situation that
exists in Algeria. Though the
news from the area is still con-
fused and sketchy the govern
ment is now claiming that
large areas are still under con-
troll Of loyal officers and that
the rebellion is confined to the
major towns Of Algiers, Con-
stantine and Oran.
Whatever the truth Of these
claims, a number Of air force
planes deserting the rebellion
have landed in France since
yesterday. In particular, the
naval base at Mers Ell Kebir-
a key element in any invasion
attempt-appears to be still
firmly under government con-
troll.
These facts have encouraged
the government to take the Of.
fensive in an effort to bring the
Algerian mutiny to an early
end. Today, Minister of the
Army Pierre Messmer broad.
cast to all troops in Algeria
commanding them mot tt
obey under any circumstances

in rebellion against the govern
ment of the republic"
At the same time a strict
economic blockade has beer
clamped on Algeria. The trans.
fer Of money - including pay
for troops-has been forbidden
Mail has been stopped and al
air and sea traffic suspended
indefinitely. The immediate
effects of the blockade may bt
more psychological than real
But it is expected that, giver
existing supplies in Algeria, 6
serious squeeze would be fell
within two weeks.
Danger Still Exists
All Of these things contribute
to the climate of returning
optimism and self confidence
in France today. At the same
time, however, the display Of
energy and determination BY
the government does not neces.
sarily mean that the situation
is under control or that the
rebellion will quickly collapse
While the immediate danger
of an attack on France itself
may be less, the military
position of the government is
still anything but reassuring
Essentially Gen. de Gaulle is
still trying to improvise a hasty
defense which will not rely toe
heavily on units of the regular
army whose loyalty in any
showdown is still doubtful at
best.
Despite the return of troops
from Germany it is doubtful
that President de GaulIe him
self knows how they woulc
react in case of attack. It is
recalled that in 1858 a full
three weeks passed between
the original revolt in Algiers
and the fall Of the govern.
ment in Paris-weeks marked
by a progressive detection O.
army and deterioration of the
governments position.
Meanwhile, leaders Of the
rebellion in Algeria can hardly
be unaware that for them
there is no turning back. II
the trend seems to be running
1against them today, it may be
all the more reason for strik-
ing while they still command
a reasonable hope of success
Clearly they must either &c
forward or fail. And in a last
desperate gamble they would

KEY WEST, Fla, April Is
(AP). - Invaders repeatedly
captured by Fidel Castro's
troops demanded death, showed
indifference or begged for
mercy in a television show from
Cuba today.
A priest, a man who claimed
he had won the United States
Medal of Honor and a pre-Cas-
tro police corporal accused of
brutalities were among the
captives interrogated in a run
ming propaganda series aimed
at convincing the Cuban peo-
pie that the United States en-
gineered the Inflated invasion
The telecast, monitored in
this Florida city near the Cuban
coast, lasted more than four
hours.
The prisoners, who indicated
they were aware of the firing
squad threat pronounced by
the prime minister, agreed with
interrogators that they were
duped into thinking the
Cuban people would join their
cause.
Disputed by PentagOn
A man who claimed to be
Manuel Perez Garcia and
claimed that he had killed 83
Japanese and won the Medal
of Honor in World War II,
jumped up and shouted, "If
this nation loves Fidel Castro,
let it shoot me-"
In Washington, the Penta-

died in battle and received the
Medal of Honor posthumously.

who said he Is a Spanish-born
priest who formerly served in
