Castro Forces Seize
Leader Of Invasion

KEY WEST, Fla, May 8
(AP). Capt. Manuel Artime,
leader of the unsuccessful in
vasion Of Cuba two weeks ago,
was captured today, Radio Ha-
vana announced.
Capt. Artime had been hid
ing in the Swamps Of the Bay
of CochinoS awaiting an oppor-
tunity to flee to the United
States, the announcement said.
1t accused him of having fled
Cuba to join the exile army
with funds from an agricultural
cooperative.
Capt. Artime was a member
of Cuban Prime Minister Fidel
CaStro's rebel army in the sue
ceSSful revolution against Pres
ident Fulgencio Batista. Mr..
Castro later claimed that Capt.
Artime was with his forces for
a brief period of days.
Capt. Artime fought beside
Castro in the Sierra Maestro
hills in the long revolution
against the Fulgencio Batista
dictatorship and served as the
Castro forces chief sanitation
officer. He was one Of the
early refugees from rising Com
munist influence in Cuba, how
ever, fleeing the country in
December, 1859, less than q
year after Castro took power.
He left Castro a note saying:

Cuban Flights
Are Resumed
By the Associated Press

Normal commercial flights to
Havana have resumed after a
one-day halt due to a Cuban
attempt to reroute flights cross
ing the island travelling to or
from the United States.
The Cuban order was issued
Monday. The Federal Aviation
Agency says the new routes in
volved detours of as much as
rs miles from the regular
courses.
These new routes had not
been flight-checked or approved
by the FAA and the agency
promptly halted all flights
across Cuba by United States
planes.
One Pan-American Always
flight was stopped five minutes
before its scheduled departure.
Cuba dropped its effort to
reroute United States aircraft
yesterday and the FAA again
gave permission for flights
along authorized routes across
the island.

Fu|bright Hits
Cuba B|under
BY ERNEST b. VACCARO
Associated Press Staff Writer

Associated Press Staff Writer
Senator Fulbright, Democrat
of Arkansas, says he believes
the Inflated Cuban invasion
was a blunder for which the
White House and several other
agencies must share RESPONSE
bility.
Senator Fulbright, chairman
of the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee, commented yester-
day after his committee ques-
toned top officials.
He said a decision would be
made later whether to call mil
itary advisers before either the
full committee or the Latin
American Affairs Subcommit-
tee.
Insofar as I'm concerned, 1
know all I want to know" Sem
ator Fulbright told reporters
after a four-hour briefing by
Allen w. Dulles, director of the
Super-Secret CIA, and Rich
ard M. BiSSell, jr., Mr.. Dulles
deputy director for plans, who
repeatedly played a major role
in the CIA's part in the inva-
sion by Cuban exiles.
Senator Fulbright said the
testimony confirmed his prior
conviction that "the operation
as a whole was q mistake" for
which the White House, the
Defense Department, the CIA
and the State Department
share "a collective RESPONSE
bility."
Senator Fulbright is known
to have warned the admins
tration against it when he
learned of the planned inva-
sion.
The Senator said that Secre-
tary Of State RuSk, who briefed
the committee Monday, will
return this afternoon for a fur
ther briefing on the world sit
uation, including the crisis in
Laos and current developments
in Cuba.
One member of Senator Full
bright's committee, Senator
Church, Democrat Of Idaho,
reported that the invasion by
the Cuban exiles was marked
by poorly conceived military
planning"
"A dual mistake was made"
Senator Church told newsmen.
Communism can not be shot
down in Latin America; it
must be shown up, and this
should be the object of our
policy.
But when a resort to arms
was taken in Cuba, then the
error was compounded by al
lowing a corporal's guard to
attempt an army's work"
Watchdog Plan Revived
Senator Church said he as
sumed our military advisers
are involved there, unless the
C1A is involved in military
strategy"
But Senator Fulbright re-
fused to pinpoint responsibility
on any branch Of the Govern
taking the position that
the operation as a whole was
a mistake"
II think 1t is quite obvious
that mistakes were made" the
chairman said. 1T was a COL
lective responsibility"
And he said he may support
again, as he has in the past,
a pending bill to set up a Joint
Senate-HouSe committee as a
watchdog group to oversee
CIA's operations on a conti-
Dental basis.
Meanwhile, Senator Mans
field, Democrat of Montana,
the Senate majority leader.
described the closed-door Sen
ate committee hearings as "in
the nature Of an inquiry"
He said Congress has no
plans to Investigate" the in
vasion.
In an investigation you are
looking for scapegoats," he
said. I'm an inquiry you are
looking for facts"

csc VACANCY-There are
all sorts of rumors as to why
the Republican vacancy on the
Civil Service Commission hasn't
been filled. One is that the
Kennedy administration is
seeking an outstanding Negro
leader for the job. At any rate,
Republican members of Con-
~Sress, including Representative
Broyhill of Virginia, are prod
ding the White House to take
action soon on filling the job.
Under law, one of the three
Civil Service Commissioners
must be a member of the mi
nority party, in this case a
Republican.
OVERTIME PAY - Senator
Keating, Republican of New
York, has sponsored a bill to
give time-and-one-half over
time to substitute postal work.
erS for work in excess of. eight
hours a day. At present, subSti-
sute postal workers only re-
ceive straight time for overtime
work.

APPROVED-The House has |
approved and sent to the Sem
ate HR-2883, a bill which would |
protect Federal employees |
against civil suits in cases ariS-
ing from accidents while driv-
ing Government cars or their
own cars on Government buSi-
ness.
TRAVEL ALLOWANCE i
The Senate Civil Service Com
smittee is expected to follow the
action of the House Govern
sment Operations Committee in
approving the bill to raise the
present $12 a day maximum
travel allowance to SIG a day
land the automobile mileage al
-lowance from 10 to IL cents.
A Senate Civil Service sub
committee has completed hear
ings on the measure and is ex-
pected to approve the bill soon,
with action by the full COM |
mittee expected shortly after |
ward. Although the admins
tration wants the increase held
to SIS a day, Congress feels
that a good case has been made !
for a SIC daily maximum. Like
wise, Congress apparently feels
that 12-cent automobile mile
age allowance is justified, even
though the administration |
would like it held at the pres
ent 10 cents.
. INDORSED The Kennedy |
administration has Endorsed
the bill to protect postal en-
ployes from salary cuts in any
two-year period following a
downgrading Of their jobs
which occurs through no fault
Of their own. 1t also indorsed a
