Libyan Party Is Battle Of Charm, Too
BY AMELIA YOUNG
Star Staff Writer


The Washington embassy
party Is, beginning to look,
more than ever, like q battle
ground for ideologies.
In come the Soviet diplo-
mats - one, two, three of
them, nowadayS-armed with
their hearty brand of charm.
In come the American
officials, at least three or
four, clearly just as eager to
win friends and influence
peoples.
The contest is subtle, with
proselyting confined to the
language Of pleaSantries.
But it's no secret that both
sides mean business.
Last night Mrs. Arthur
Goldberg, wife Of the new
Secretary of Labor and al
ready a, familiar face at
embassy functions, said Of
her partygoing. "1t's very
important. Secretary (of
State) Rusk expects it Of u.s."
In fact. she added, she and
her husband had been specif-
ically asked by the Protocol
Office to accept invitations
whenever possible.
The Goldbergs were guests
at a reception given by
Libyan Ambassador and Mrs.
Fekini in the Mayflower
Hotel. Another conscientious
New FrontierSman present
was Assistant Secretary of
State for African Affairs G.
Mennen williams, who said
he means to attend all the
African diplomatic parties
he's invited to until I drop
dead or it interferes with my
work"
When the Goldbergs and
Assistant Secretary Williams
arrived at the Libyan recep-
ton, the three ranking dip
lomats of the Soviet En-
bassy already were on the
scene.
They recently adopted this
practice of appearing in
force (most embassies send
just the chief of mission,
with or without his wife).
The Russian trio Of Ambas-
sador Menshikov, Minister
Counselor Smirnovsky and
Counselor Filippov usually ar
rives early and stays around
for a while.
Inc Fek1nlS' party was a
belated celebration of Libyan
Independence Day (the
ninth anniversary this year,,
which fell on Christmas Eve.
The alternate date was
strictly one Of convenience.

Castro Charges
Air Violations

HAVANA, June Is (AP).-
Ffdel Castro's government ac-
cused the United States today
Of repeated violation of Cuban
air space and said a note of
protest is being sent via the
Czechoslovak Embassy to Wash
ington.
The Foreign Office gave no
details of the alleged violations
but said a full list of those since
January 20 would be attached
to the note.
The protest apparently was
prompted by the flight of a jet
on June 13 over Havana's La
Cabana Prison and the naval
hospital near the capital. Off

men and photographers COW

The leftist leader invited the
correspondents to take up per-
manent repertorial duties in
Havana. This was a big switch
from the days following the in
vaSion when American news
men were arrested or took ref
uge in embassies.
Mr.. Castro surprised the visit
ing reporters by calling them to
his office quarters in the Agra
rian Reform Institute on short
notice yesterday afternoon after
his session with the American
technical team on the tractor
proposal.
Relaxed and in good humor,
the revolutionary replied at
length to all questions put to
him. 1t was his first such meet
ing with newsmen in many
months.
Mr.. Castro lounged amid a
circle of reporters in his usual
olive green army fatigue uni
form. He sucked on a cigar
stub but never quite got it lit
during the ~ hours of the
first news conference.
The Cuban leader spoke fairly
rapidly in Spanish. Two volun-
teer interpreters tried to keep
going at the same time, cor
recting each other occasionally.
After a lull which occurred
around the 112-hour mark, the
American wire service reporter
present tried a THANK you, Mr..
Prime Minister" At a Wash
ington news conference, that
would signal the end to the ses-
sion. Mr.. Castro kept right on
as if he were on one of his
televiSion marathons.
Later in the evening, after his
final meeting with the Amer
lean negotiators, the Prime
Minister again put in an ap-
pearance with the newsmen. He
sat down at a table in the
lounge Of the hotel where cor
respondents were staying and,
without removing his beret,
held forth once again.
This meeting lasted from
1920 pm. till 1885 am. today.
Fidel drank two soft drinks
during this discussion which, as
the evening wore on, turned
more and more into a college
fraternity-type bull session.

ended the affair when they dis
covered for certain that Mr..
Castro planned to start their
battlefield tour at $50 am.

Asked if he had a specific
list of the 1000 prisoners
abroad whom he wants liber-
ated, Mr.. Castro replied he had
mo list. but we know there are
many prisoners there because
they are patriots.
AS for the tractor deal, he
said:

Denying that the Soviet
Union opposes control and in
spection of disarmament as a
matter of principle, he then
addressed this remark to Mr..
Kennedy:
I'VE are ready to accept your
proposals on control, but do
you also accept our proposals
on universal and complete dis
armament?-then there will be
no deadlock on disarmament
talks"
The next disarmament talks
will be held in Washington
Monday between United States
and Soviet representatives. Mr..
KhruShchev expressed hope
that I'VE at last will meet a
constructive approach on the

The United States and the

police forces scrapped within
four years. The West says this
program provides nothing for
control to make sure the dis
armament steps are being fol-
lowed faithfully.
Mr.. Khrushchev then turned
to the Geneva nuclear test

tives, with each having a veto.

may want to take over the
whole package.
In his message to Congress,
Mr.. Kennedy said the Defense
Department would take over
the shelter program. Mr.. Ellis
backed this decision. But there
are reports in the Pentagon
that Secretary of Defense
Mcnamara has told the PreSi-
dent he wants the whole civil
defense program or none of it.
Mr.. Ellis wants military
participation and backing, but
not military control. Pentagon
backing, he believes, will be
necessary to sell the program
on Capitol Hill.
For years Congress has
brushed off civil oe1ense. Even
civil defense enthusiasts there
could not welcome the token
programs offered b. past ad-
ministrations. But if Congress
could be sold on the idea that
the Ellis program is an essen
tial part of national defense,
then OCDM believes key Con-
gressmen will approve.
One Of the CD enthusiasts,
Chairman Holifield of the
Military Operations subcom-
mittee of the Committee on
Government Operations, is
cautiously hopeful about the
Ellis plan. His committee will
hold hearings as soon as the
first-year program is made
public in detail.
Meanwhile, Congress has be-
fore it the $104-million EiSen-
hover request - which the
House Appropriations Commit
tee already has cut to $79
million.
A revision of the budget
request probably will go to
Capitol Hill around the first
of July - after the Budget
Bureau, Pentagon and White
House have filled in the details
of the Ellis first-year program.

toned whether the Govern
ment's motion was timely" in
its filing. He said, too, the
intervention bid would seem to
be contrary to the intent of
Congress" since several bills
were now in Congress to grant
the Attorney General the right
to intervene in such suits.
Cites Other Cases
Judge Lewis also pointed out
the Federal Government made
no move to intervene as a
plaintiff in school cases in Lit
tie Rock and New Orleans even
though "open defiance of Fed
eral Court orders was obvious.
In Virginia, this complex prob
lem has been and is being
solved in a lawful and proper
manner through the courts.
There has been no known de-
fiance of this courts orders by
either the State of Virginia or
the County of Prince Ed
ward :"
The judge also turned down
a move by the State to dismiss
a broadened suit by attorneys
for the Negro plaintiffs seeking
to question the constitutionality
of the tuition grants and the
State law under which the
schools were closed. A pre-trial
hearing, if necessary, and the
filing of briefs in the broad
ened suit were set for next
month.
MethOdists Urge Action

destruction for distinctions
sake was the least likely kind
of nuclear war. They could see
circumstances where it would
be in the enemy's interest to
fight other kinds of nuclear
wars-from a few small mis-
siles lobbed into a neutral
country as a warning UP to a
large attack against American
long-range striking forces, S,
sparing cities.
If the strategistS were right,
then civil defense should be
considered in the context of a
variety of limited" nuclear
wars. Looked at this way, civil
defense could not only save
scores of millions of lives
(Which no one ever disputed)
but possibly also save the
country.
The Ellis Program
The next question was, what
kind of civil defense would be
best? 1t would take a massive
research program to answer
this question with precision,
but Mr.. Ellis quick study did
produce a broad outline Of a
Federal-State local approach.
The total price tag-tenta-
tively-would be about $40 bill
lion, perhaps half of it in Fed
eral funds. Most of the money
would be spent on fallout
shelters.
Mr.. Ellis decided he could
spend about 1925 million with
good result in fiscal year
1862, starting this July /. The
following years spending could
go over 81 billion and in the
fourth and last year Uncle Sam
could be investing S. billion.
He decided his program
would die just as fast as those
of his predecessors unless the
Federal Government did more
than lead" He feels it has to
act to build shelters and sub
sidize others, stockpile emer-
gency survival materials, dis
tribute radiation meters and
plan the evacuation of cities
during the build-up of war;
like crises.
This concept for Federal
action has increased the
Federal share in the Ellis pack
age. The first version that went
Ito the Bureau of the Budget
called for a 81 billion total
Federal contribution. 1t seemed
clear to the Bureau and then
to OCDM that this would not
be enough to put over the pro-
gram. The Federal share of the
total plan now is reported to be
closer to $40 billion.
Mr.. Ellis problem now is to
get Bureau of the Budget ap-
proval, then a White House
okay and finally the. money
from Congress.
Mr.. Kennedy approved the
first year of the package-about
1925 million to be spent largely
surveying available fallout shell
ter space and building more
This, plus what already exists
will give this country an ap-
|preciable civil defense program.
Mr.. Kennedy also approved a
$500,000 research contract with
the Stanford Research Insti-
tute, Menlo Park, Calf, which
it is hoped will put the OCDM
in a better position to push for
the rest of the Ellis package in
subsequent years.
Some OCDM staffers believe
the long-range program may
have opposition from some OF
Mr.. Kennedy'S advisers. They
fear also that the Pentagon
