NEW YORK, April 10 (AP)
The apparent arrest of sew
eral American correspondents
in Havana was reported today
by the New York Times in a
dispatch from the United States
Naval Base at Guantanamo
Bay in Eastern Cuba.
The reported roundup COIN
cided with reports from all
parts of Cuba that counter
revolutionaries" were being de-
tained, arrested and deported
to remote areas by Castro po-
lice and militia units, the news
paper said.
Harry Baymont, chief of the
United Press International bu-
reau, was reported under arrest.
and Richard Valeriani, NBC
Radio-TV correspondent, was
said to have taken refuge in
the Italian Embassy.

call upon the General Assembly
to request all members to stop
any activity in their territories
in direct or indirect support of
Cuban rebels.
During the opening debate
this morning Iraq lined up be-
hind the Mexican position and
roundly condemned big power
bullying Of Cuba.
Cuban Foreign Minister Roa
interrupted debate with a dra-
matte announcement that an
American plane flown by an
American pilot had been shot
down after a bombing mission
over Cuba. The body of the
pilot, Leo Francis Bell, of Bos-
ton. is in the hands of the
Castro government, he said.
Afterwards, Argentina and
Venezuela spoke in an attempt
to bridge the gap between the
Mexican proposal and their
resolution supported by the ma
iority of Latin American ma
tionS and the United States.

! already evidenced in the inter-
American front over Cuba.
Yesterday, Ecudor and Mexico
deserted the agreed position
that the Organization of Amer
lean States should settle the
Cuban American "squabble'
without direct intervention of
the United Nations.
Support U. S. Stand
Today, the Venezuelan and
Argentine delegates went along
with Mexico as far as reject
ing any type of interference
with Cuba by an outside state
But both believed the United
Nations should make the OAS
primarily responsible for set
tling this regional dispute. Both
gave strong support co the
American position that the cur
rent battle is between Cubans
over what type of government
the island is to have.
DR.. Mario Amadeo, the Ar
gentine delegate, particularly
noted that forces outside the
American continent" were using
the Cuban dispute to infiltrate
the hemisphere.
Late last night the first major
cracks in the inter-American
front appeared in a speech by
DR.. Padilla Nervo, delegate Of
Mexico. He served notice that
his government could not sup
port either direct or indirect"
intervention by any state in
Cuban affairs.
Two Resolutions Offered
The result is a Mexican draft
resolution directly from Mex
| leo City which stands along
side an "OAS resolution" spon-
sored by six other Latin Amer
ican countries.
A Soviet proposal demanding
that the Assembly condemn
the United States as an ag-
gressor master -minding the
invasion of Cuba and urging
U. N. members to give aid to
Fidel Castro appears certain
to be rejected.
The language Of the resolu-
ton of Argentina, Venezuela
and four others is much more
vague than that of Mexico. II
calls on all members of the OAS
Ito lend their assistance" in
settling the dispute between
Cuba and the United States.
Fear OAS Failure
The difference is more than
a matter of legal niceties. The
/ Mexican delegation admitted
to the committee that some
delegates Of the Americas with
which Mexico is closely linked
do not agree about United Ma
tionS competence to handle
this regional dispute.
In fact, the United States
delegation here and some seven
Latin American countries which
have broken relations with the
Fidel Castro regime have con-
sistently held that U. N. inter-
vention would be an admission
Of OAS failure to keep its own
house in order. They argue
that such an admission would
deal death blow to the inter-

American system and give Cas-
tro international sanctuary.
All Of American Ambassador
Adlai Stevenson's eloquence and
wit have not been able to sat-
isfy delegates concerned over
Cuban. Soviet and Afro-Asian
charges that the United States
is fomenting rebellion abroad
by arming and financing rebels
on American territory.
Mr.. Stevenson'S antagonists
draw literally upon extensive
American press reports of rebel
activity in Florida and else
where. Most delegates are un-
impressed with the rejoinder
that these reports prove the
freedom of the American press
They also are beginning to re-
gard Mr.. SteVenSon's "categori-
cal denial" of direct American
mnltary intervention as not very
artful dodges.
During the past few days
they have seen him work as q
diplomat calmly crossing swords
with the Russians and their
satellites in best cold war style
Some sympathize with neces-
sity, but many agree with
Cuban Foreign Minister Roa' S
taunts about two StevensonS'
one liberal, and the other a
politician following orders of
his government.
No one is still quite certain
where this lengthy duel of
oratory is heading. Much de-
pends upon how far the Rus
slams are willing to go in sup
port Of the Castro regime. They
have not yet said explicitly
how much aid they will give.
Their resolution condemning
United States aggression" Is
not considered likely to get a
majority in the Political Com
mittee. let alone the necessary
two-thirds in the parent Cen
eral Assembly.
The feeling is growing ! ere
that the real test of Soviet
intentions must await a call

for help from Premier Castro
if and when that happens.
For that reason most govern
ments are still waiting to see
how the invasion progresses
befre taking a final position
in the U. N. To judge by the
opening rounds of debate,
however, United States pres
tige is bound to suffer no
matter what happens in Cuba.

De-ormed Ex-Novy Ship
Is Reodied by Cubons

power General Motors deiselS
giving her a cruising speed ot
26 knots and a top speed ir
excess of 80 knots.
i Cuban representatives of the
shipping firm were at first re-
luctant to discuss the vesSe,
with reporters. Later an Off
cial agreed to allow an ord
nance-trained newsman to in
spect the armaments aboard
the craft.
A naval rifle on the forward
deck had been lrreparably
damaged by having three teeth
burned off its elevating gear
by Welding torch: by having
the breech block cut through
and by having a hole burned
in the side of the gun tube
near the breech. Twenty-milli-
meter anti-aircraft weapons in
an after gun tub were equally
thoroughly decommissioned.
The shipping official refused
to specify the use to which the
craft viii be put. 1t has neither
hold nor deck space for a
significant amount of cargo,
and is not suitable for carry
ing enough troops to warrant
its use in an invasion.
Speculation that the vessel
might be taken elsewhere to-
day to be rearmed was not
susceptible Of confirmation. At
any event, it was clear that
the United States is not about
to allow the Cubans to outfit
a combat-worthy armed ship
in full view of the traffic on
Biscayne boulevard.
Across the downtown section
from Dade Dry Dock, a Cuban
recruiting station" continues
to receive scores of young and
not-so-young volunteers for the
fight against "Fidel."
The station is in a modest
bungalow on a palm lined street
"a couple of miles back from
Biscayne Bay. Applicants fill
out forms, receive a rather
perfunctory physical examina-
ton and somewhat less per-
functory security grilling. Then
they are sent home on a don't
call us, we'll call you" basis.
Helps Keep Control
A recruiting official said he
was not at liberty to reveal the
number of men processed there
since the invasion fever took
hold early Monday. However,
IA reliable American source put
the number at 1000 in two
Miami offices and an equal
number in stations in other
parts of the country where
substantial numbers of Cubans
reside.
Wendell N. Rollason, direc-
tor of the Inter-American At
fairs Commission of Miami said
the recruiting office idea is
designed to keep patriotic
young Cubans under a measure
of control. He said all kinds of
irresponsible actions, tragic
for the men involved and
damaging for the anti-Castro
cause, might occur if there
were no way for the youths to
express their patriotism. The
fact of recruiting is such a
needed outlet, Mr.. Rollason ex-
planned.
Mr.. Rollason's group is a vol
untary organization made up
mostly of Latin American
leaders.

Veterans News

Q-My husband and were mar
ried several times, the last time
just month before his death. Will
the time of our prior marriages
count toward the required five
years for my pension eligibility?
A-Where a widow has been
married to the same veteran more
than once, the date of the first
marriage is used in computing the
duration of their marriage. Be-
cause of the unusual circumstances
you might do well to check all de-
tails with the nearest VA office.
Q-Are the VA Regional offices
generally located in state capitals?
A-Generally they are in the ma
jor cities of each state-which may
or may not be state capitals.
OIL have not been feeling we'll
lately, and think l need a medical
check-up. Will the VA do this for
me?
A-No. The VA gives medical
examinations only to determine the
presence of condition claimed to
be service-connected, when needed
for Government life insurance pur-
poses, or when. application is made
for hospital or domiciliary care.
