U. 5. Opposes
Exile Regime
Of Castro Foes
By the Associated Press

The United States yesterday
strongly objected to efforts by
an organization of Cuban jul
dietary in exile to set up a gov
eminent in exile aimed at
uniting Cubans opposed to
Fidel Castro.
In a proclamation read at a
Miami news conference Friday,
the association of the Cuban
judiciary in exile named DR..
Julio Carceran de Vail y Souza,
former senior justice of the
Cuban Supreme Court, as pro
visional president Of the Re-
public Of Cuba"
A telegram sent Mr.. Carceran
de Vail by Acting Assistant
Secretary of State Wymberley
de r. Coerr, told him: THAT
the Government of the United
States does not consent to the
pretended or assumed existence
of the government of Cuba in
arms in exile within its SOW
ereign domain and, for that
reason, I must suggest that
whatever acts you or others
associated with you have taken
or may be taking looking to the
establishment Of such a gov
eminent without the invita-
tations or consent Of the
United States be dissolved and
cease forthwith"
Joseph Reap, a State De-
partment press officer, ex-
planned that 1.-The recognition
Of a government of Cuba in
exile at this time is not in the
national interest Of the United
States because neither the gov
eminent of Switzerland nor any
other government could then
represent United States inter-
ests before the Castro regime.
United States citizens are
imprisoned in Cuba and can
only be offered such protection
as is available in Cuba under
the Castro regime by the con-
tinued ability of a foreign gov
eminent to represent United
States interests" he said.

accidents each year in the
United States.
The need for such escape
techniques was pointed up Fri
day when Charles B. Runyon
drowned after his car smashed
through Key Bridge guard rails
and plunged into the Potomac
river.
Coroner A. Magruder Mac
Donald said a preliminary
examination disclosed Mr..
Runyon suffered no serious In
juries despite the series Of
impacts, including a 100-foot
fall to the water. before his car
settled nose-down in the river
bottom mud. Death apparently
was caused by drowning.
Survival Called Possible
Mr.. Mullins said the Michi-
gan Red Cross tests demon
strated that persons in a
submerged car can survive by
keeping within the air bubble
which forms when water first
rushes into the car.
Mr.. Runyon's body was found
floating in a pocket of air.
Presumably, this could have
been an avenue Of escape.
The Red Cross participated
in the submerged-car tests last
month at Williamson, Mich.
in cooperation with the Michi-
gan State police and Indiana

RIFF CHANGES-The Civil
Service Commission has an
nounced revisions in Govern
ment reductions-in- force regu-
lationS. The new regulations
become effective so days after
publication in the Federal Reg
lister, which is expected within
two weeks.
Included in the new regula- =
tions are seven major revisions.
Under these changes. agencies:
Unjust deliver q specific no.
tice to the employe-at least
five days before the effective
date Of reduction in force after
the employe has been given a
general notice Of reduction in
force. (Under prior regulations,
agencies could wait until the
last day Of the usual 3O.day
general notice period before is

reasons for it. He is also. told
that Q specific notice viii be
sent when final action Is de-
cided on, his appeal rights are

within 80 days, the general
notice is automatically can
celed. The new regulations do

sued at the start Of a notice
period.
2. May not displace a full
time employe with a less-than-
full-time employe. The Old reg
ulations were silent on whether
q part-time empIoye could dis
place q full-time en1ploye from
| Q job.
| 3. May not separate an en-
ploye If a Understanding en-
Iploye is furloughed. "a furlough
is a temporary arrangement
and contemplates return to
duty within a year, This
change adopts Government
wide what has been general
practice in most agencies.
4. Are now clearly authorized
by regulation to fill a vacant
position by reduction force
action. This authority, though
previously assumed. has never
before been explicit. Under the
new regulations, as in the past,
the agency Is not required to
fill vacant jobs in REDUCTION in
force. The change provides that
an employe reached for release
from the competitive level may
b reassigned to a vacant job as
a reduction in force action.
5. Must rank an employe
within subgroups on retention
registers by crediting his serv-
ice to the day instead Of on
present basis Of full years, with
any additional service com.
puted by blocks Of s months
only for the purpose Of break
ing ties. This will reduce the
number Of misunderstanding
ties.
6. Are now specifically au-
thorized by regulation to apply

to enlarge benefits provided for
employees by the commissions
resnla ations-an authority con-
siste1t with past practice. tThe
commission has directed that
such permfsSive practices "a

competitive areas and displaces

a specific regulatory provision.
When agencies do this; they
must apply such enlarged benz

as a result of determining to
take more severe action than
that planned in the original ac-
ton. at least 80 days prior to
the effective date of reduction
in force. This requirement win
apply not only to separation in
stead Of demotion but also to
separation instead of furlough,
separation instead of return to
duty at the end Of furlough, de-
motion instead of reassignment,
and to a more severe demotion
than the one originally speci-
fled.
Commission instructions, on
reduction in force include
changes in three principal
areas. Agencies are being "a

tions must be handled rs re-,

nedy, who said the President
appreciated hearing the NPU';
views on the bill.
Mr.. Dungan said in his reply
This legislation would prob
ably sinduce some Government
employees to retire earlier thar
otherwise and probably thereby
vacate their jobs for workers
now unemployed. It should
therefore, be considered with
other proposals TO- reduce un-
employmentss =
However. the decisive part OF
the White House letter was this
closing portion: Against such
possible short-run gain, how
ever, we need to weigh the
long-run economic and social
impact of inducing workers to
retire at earlier ages, even
though their longevity is in
creasing and general health
improving. Our free economy
and our Nation will need the
services OF. experienced workers
at their highest skills. during
the productive years Of their
fifties and early sixties"
Thus, what the Kennedy ad-
ministration appears TO be say
ing Is that it does not favor
the optional 30-year retirement
legislation: that 1t hesitates to
set q national trend for earlier
retirement for industry workers
as sought by the big AFL-CIO
labor unions by indorsing the
optional 30-year retirement
plan for Federal workers.
