Cubans Swap
TheirCurrency

HAVANA, Aug. z (AP).-
Hundreds Of thousands Of
their currency in a blitz two
day money changeover decreed
Saturday by Premier Fidel
Castro's regime.
Each Cuban was permitted to
exchange up to 200 old pesos
for new bills commemorating
Cuban heroes. Any Cuban
holding more than 200 old
pesos had to deposit the ex-
cess in a bank account from
which he can begin drawing
August IA. The old notes
ceased to have value last night.
The government said the ex-
change was designed to stem
the illegal flow into Cuba Of
millions Of pesos taken out Of
the country by persons who fled
when Mr.. Castro came to
power.
Exchange centers will open
again today.
All travel to and from Cuba
has been suspended during the
changeover. Cuban workers
were prevented from entering
the United States Naval Base
at Guantanamo Bay.
Almost all shops and busi-
nesses were closed yesterday.
Restaurants opened at noon but
accepted payment only in the
new bills or coinage, which is
not affected by the chage-
over.
New bills are of /, 5, 10, so
and 100 peso denominations.

position of a League member
you must try this some day
we came to this conclusion:
Mr.. Taubman, q convert from
music criticism, has been ac-
customed for years to dealing
with creative works that are
centuries old. What effect
would this have upon a man
suddenly recruited to deal with
a commodity that might not
last until he could get back to
the office and write q review?
Here (still thinking as a
League member, don't forget)
was the rueful crux Of the
matter. Mr.. Taubman simply
thought that anything so tenn
poral could not possibly be
worth an opinion, the next
logical step therefore that he
would write a no-opinion
review.
Our bet is that he will keep
his freedom Of the press.

one has been brought against
Mr.. Taubman, namely that he

Irving Lowens' review Of
Van Cliburn's October 20 per-
formance at Constitution
Hall said that the Prokofieff
sonata did not arouse en-
thusiasm. How could anyone
present miss the thunderous
applause which brought Mr..
Cliburn back for repeated
bows?
Mr.. Lowens also forgot"
the fact that the "disap-
pointed" audience demanded
two encores Of the brilliant
artist.
Mr.. Lowens must have gone
to the concert with a mind
set against the great musi-
clan. The consensus in the
orchestra section was that
even Beethoven would have
been pleased with the young
pianist's performance of his
"Appassionata" sonata; that
it was warm and Inspiration
al, not cold"
The "lack of sparkle" was
not in Mr.. Cliburn's playing,
but in Mr.. Lowens' entire at
titude. His attempt to bring
sensationalism back to jour-
nalism by writing an article
for the sole purpose of catch
ing attention seemed quite
obvious to me.
The performance was a
true source of joy for me. and
one I shall never forget.

Cost of AT Chapel

I will go along with the
thinking Of the gentleman
who recently criticized the
amount Of money being spent
to erect the Chapel at the
Air Force Academy to this
extent only - 50 million
would go a long way to al
leviate poverty and suffering,
IL 1t were spent for that pur-
pose. Who knows If it were
deleted from the amount al
lotted for the construction Of
this particular church that it
would be?
Designed to accommodate
all the faiths, the edifice
when completed will be a
most beautiful and impressive
addition to the Academy. I
cannot find 1t in my heart
to regret" the small amount
Of my tax money which will
go into a place Of worship
for these boys who may one
day be called upon to make
the supreme sacrifice for
their country.
The wonderful thing to me
is that in this country the
taxpayers money can be
spent to build churches.
There are those countries
where 1t cannot.

On Watch in the Sky

Our orbiting "spy in the sky" Midas
w, has proved the feasibility Of satel-
lite system for detecting the launching
and approach Of enemy ballistic missiles.
That, presumably, is the inference to be
drawn from Midas success in spotting
from a height of more that 1000 miles
the launching from Cape Canaveral Of
a Titan missile.
The intercontinental Titan, soon to
be operational, was sent aloft as the Mi
das neared Cape Canaveral in one Of its
passes around the earth. When the Titan
was about 40 miles up, about 80 seconds
after lift-off, the Midas began record
ing the missiles presence through hy-
persensitive infra-red ray detection ap-
paratus The discovery" was reported
by radio to Air Force listeners.
1t would take large number of such
sky spies circling the globe to provide
adequate warning of a missile attack, of
course. And, under present plans, more
missile detecting satellites of the Midas
type will be put into orbit eventually.
The Canaveral test indicated that, once
the system begins operation, America
would be assured of prompt notice If an
intercontinental ballistic missile were to
be fired in our direction. And warn
ing that such missile was on the way
would be of vital Importance.
incidentally, the Titan which the
Midas "eye" detected in flight scored its
ninth successful over-the-ocean flight,
strengthening confidence of its develop
ers as to its effectiveness as retalia-
tory weapon. We hope the time never
will come, however, when either the
Midas or the Titan will be called into
action in a nuclear war that could mean
the end of the world as we know it.
