HAVANA, Feb. Is (AP)-
Insurgents in increasing num-
bers are active in Oriente
Provinces mountains, but most
If not all-appear to be de-
fectors from Prime Minister
Fidel Castro's regime rather
than arrivals from abroad.
Qualified observers who
toured Oriente, Cuba's EASTERN
most province, reported today
they found no direct confirma-
ton Of reports widely circulated
in Cuba Of landings" by rebels
in several areas Of eastern
Cuba.
But the observers reported
they learned reliably that up
to 900 opposition men had fled
into the hills between Baracoa
on the Northern coast and
Guantanamo on the southern
coast to fight the Castro
regime.
Landings UncOnfirmed
A survey lasting several days
failed to produce o single direct
confirmation Of reported land
ings in the Bafaeoa area or in
the La Plata-Pilon region on
the southern coast landings in
these areas have been widely
rumored since early February.
But the survey did produce
proof in the form Of CONVERSE
tionS with relatives Of rebels
and Cuban officials that there
is steadily increasing insurgent
activity in Oriente which may
in time grow into an opposition
second front"
The observers confirmed that
considerable numbers Of Castro
militiamen and troops have
been dispatched into the area
midway between Baracoa and
Guantanamo because Of insur-
gent activity.
The government, meanwhile,
maintained silence on progress
Of its Cleanup" effort against
a main concentration Of rebels
in the Escambray mountains Of
South-central Cuba.
The Liberation army" radio
from somewhere outside Cuba
said the insurgents made Q
successful attack" on militia
positions ringing the Escam-
brays. The broadcast said rebels
used only bayonets and COM
mando knives to avoid alerting
the militiamen held in reserve.
Report on Escapes
Those who made the Oriente
tour made this report:
1t. Emilio Vera, chief Of the
Guantanamo Jail, decamped
into the hills February IA with
a number Of political prisoners
and 20 guards-all armed.
Castro agents arrested Vera's
wit and held her incommuni-
cado. the observers said.
Nearly 40 other members Of
the Castro police and military
organizations led by Capt. Argi-
miro Fonseca have deserted and
moved into the hills.

tro suspects that followed,

Stresses Disarmament
"But we should try at the
same time to damp down con-
troversy and to encourage In
every way we can q re-
duction Of tensions. That is in
the interest Of the world as q
whole.
'In no field is there greater
need for perseverance than in
disarmament, and here ! am en-
couraged by President Ken
nedy's fortnight emphasis on
the crucial question Of arms
control and the urgent steps
he has set in train to expand
the effort to get disarmament.
II believe there are real
hopes Of q fresh approach
when the Geneva talks on the
abolition Of nuclear tests are
resumed (next month";.
Surely disarmament must
be of equal interest to the Rus
sian people as to our own.
They, too, must grudge the
large expenditure Of human
effort and skill which goes
into these infinitely compli-
Gated weapons. They, too,
must wish like us to devote
the vast potentialities Of mod
ern science to raising living
standards at home and abroad.
1--WE will continue our stren-
uouS efforts to clear away the
misunderstanding, reveal the
real points Of difference, and
try to resolve them. In spite
Of the failure up to now to per-
suade the Soviet to accept our
sincere proposals, we shall still
persevere. The prize Is so
great"

Watkinson told the young con-
servatives the British govern
ment will not cut back its de-
fensive strength until disarma-

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,
Feb. Is (AP). - The United
Nations said today its Congo
command had threatened to
use force to stop the premier
Of South Kasai from occupying
two towns where there was
danger Of q clash with hostile
tribes,
1t was the first time the q. N.
command has made use Of the
authority given it by the q. N
Security Council Tuesday to
use force If necessary to prevent
civil war in the Congo.
The U. N. command also an
nounced it had tried to prevent
the take-over Of the Kasai
Province capital Of Luluabourg
by Lumumbist troops.
The United Nations published
a report from Rajeshwar Dayal
of India, Secretary General Dag
Hammarskjold's special repre-
sentative in the Congo, covering
both developments.
Takes Firm Stand
Mr.. Dayal said that Albert
Kalonji, head Of the so-called
South Kasai Mining State, was
assuming aggressive postures. "
The report said this devel-
oped after Mr.. Kalonji was Or
dered by an officer under
Congo President Joseph Kasa-
vubu to occupy Sentery in east
ern Kasai and Kasongo in Kivu
Province.
IF the Kalonji troops were to
comply with these instructions
there would be grave dangers
of clashes with hostile tribes
occupying the area" the report
said. It said Mr.. Dayal had
drawn Mr.. Kalonji's attention
to the new Security Council
order to keep the peace and
then declared: IF this warn
ing is not needed, you will be
held responsible for the conse-
quences."
I'VE have issued q stern
warning to Mr.. Kalonji to de-
Sist from any aggressive ac-
tion," the report said.

Mr.. Kasavubu and asked him

Morse Critical of
Failure to Back
Brazil Oil Plan

Senator Wayne Morse, chairman
of the Senate Latin American Affairs
subcommittee, said last week he was
very much disturbed by reports that
because Brazil has gotten "the brush
off" from American aid officials in
it's efforts to obtain 81 million loan
to develop its oil shale reserves,
Brazil is turning to Communist-bloc
countries for help.
''The administration is talking
about sending more military arms
aid to South America. Yet this re-
luctance to aid the Brazilian oil mo-
nopoly is almost an invitation to the
Communists to walk in on a vital
element of any country's existence
it's fuel supply.
sit makes me wonder how foolish
we can get in our foreign aid pro-
gram"
Morse said he had already wired
Under Secretary of State George
Ball about the matter, and ICA Di-
rector Henry Labouisse. The text of
the telegram sent to both officials
follows:
Believe it imperative that United
States make firm and definite loan
proposal to Petrobras for it's oil shale
program. 1t had been my understand |
ing that loan approval of Department |
Of State was ready to go; now / am
advised that loan funds are said to |
De exhausted and that nothing is
for this particular loan.
81 am not impressed with this con-
ention, any more than l am with
that world oil supply is
plentiful without Brazil's oil shale
oming into production, or that u. S.
hould not lend to a government
monopoly. Brazil must utilize what
yer resources it has for relief of
IS people, just as U. S. does. If this
ountry is unwilling to provide loan
lnds, then Brazil will develop it's
il shale with someone else's help.
''It makes no sense to send increas-
lg arms aid to South America with

unism, when a shortsighted aid pol

mitted specific evidence? Aren't
good union men entitled to know
why a supposedly "anti-labor" law
is employed?
Then there is that matter of ear
marking $21, 100000 for military as
sistance to Latin American govern
ments for acquisition of "anti-sub-
versive'' equipment. Perhaps this
could be Justified if we knew it was
going to really democratic govern
ments. But isn't an explanation in
order?
We have been hearing about the
misery of the people of the Americas,
and miserable they undoubtedly are.
Public opinion, still confused and
upset by the Cuban fiasco, was slow
ly being modified for the alliance
for Progress" program. Now, with
out warning, there is shift in the
Western Hemisphere military aid
program.
What does it portend? How signifi-
can't is it? Who is to get our help?

Finally, there is the question of
the school aid bill. For many Amer
leans, not only those who are con-
sidered liberal ON domestic problems,
this is showdown issue-a test of
Mr.. Kennedy's intentions.
There is an uneasy feeling that on
this issue the Administration may
choose not to fight, or accept ''com-
promise that may be at variance
with what Mr.. Kennedy told the
Houston ministers last autumn.
No reasonable person believes
that any of these problems can be
handled as easily once a man is
in the White House as in a politi-
cal campaign. But if the situation
has changed, or the Administration
thinks it has changed, would some
body take the trouble to say how
and why? Contrary to the title of
a new book, this is not nation of

How can a farm afford
the special services it needs?

Farming /. like any other industry -.
needs the efficiencies and economies of
specialized departments.
The farm business needs q sales de-
partment and a purchasing department
someone to counsel on insurance
and credit and many more depart
ments to work out important problems.
If It weren't for cooperatives, most
farmers couldn't afford these special
lied services. Purchasing cooperatives
supply materials and products of high
est quality at lowest possible cost. Mar
keting cooperatives help improve the
quality of produce and sell it at the
most favorable prices. Mutual insur-
ance companies provide protection at
lowest cost. Credit associations lend
money for farm operations.
These cooperatives make farming
more business-like and more profitable.

HOW TO LOSE FRIENDS
AND INFLUENCE

President Kennedy is in unexpected
trouble with some of those citizens
who might legitimately claim that
they provided his margin of victory
organized labor, public school sup
porters, and civil rights advocates
the elements in our society that
roughly might be classified as Glib
eraP' or "iberal-activist'
1t is not deep trouble yet-but
the first signs of disenchantment are
there. Now, as he nears the end of
his first six months in office, it
might be wise to take look at Mr..
Kennedy's domestic political situa-
tion.
Much of the liberal criticism of the
Administration still remains muffled,
because many liberals feel they have
nowhere else to go; there is no room
for them yet in the Republican party.
But if there is to be any advance
towards New Frontier, the Admins
tration would be we'll advised to probe
deeply into the feeling of let-down
that is SO clearly evident among the
Presidents hitherto strongest sup
porters. He needs them more than
Ike needed Sherman Adams.
The basic difficulty is that the
President does not seem to be taxi
ing the public into his confidence.
Neither he, nor all those articulate
men around him, are convincingly
explaining why he does what he
does. Perhaps it is because there
are no clear policies, merely i'm
provisations.
But to independent, intelligent
people who insist on thinking for
themselves the notion is annoying
that all White House action must be
underwritten as matter of faith. |
They simply are not geared that way.
Three separate matters illustrate
what is at the bottom of so much of
Mr.. Kennedy's new trouble: the in
voking of the Taft-Hartley Act in
the maritime strike, the request for
funds to arm Latin American govern
ments against vaguely defined SUBJ
version, and the federal school aid
bill.
Take look at the maritime strike.
There may have been perfectly good
'easons for invoking the Hartley
aw: Hawaii may have been ON the
verge of starvation, the jurisdictional
disputes between tn unions may have
,een beyond immediate resolution, or
he shipping lines may not have been
lble to survive severe economic
'low at the height of summer travel
o Europe.
But if any, or all of these things
were true should not someone high
