NIlrushcllev Says
 .JFK Is Following A Dangerous Path

MOSCOW lT - Soviet Premier Nikita KhrushcheV told President Kennedy Saturday the invasion of Cuba is ga crime which has revolted the whole world"
 ''It has been established in controvertibly that it was the United States that prepared the intervention, financed, armed and transported the mercenary bands which invaded Cuba," Khrushchev said in a message to President Kennedy, handed to E. l.. Freers, U. s. Charge d Affaires.
 Khrushchev was replying to a communication several days ago from Kennedy.
 As distributed by Tass, the So- viet News Agency, the Khrush- chev statement referred to Ken nedy statement that rockets that might be used against the United States could be stationed in Cuba, with the inference that this posed problems for the United States in relation to the whole Western Hemisphere.
 MT. President, you are follow ing very dangerous path" Khrushchev said "Ponder that

Gen. Taylor to Make Survey of U. s. Capabilities For Guerrilla Warfare

WASHINGTON LP - President Kennedy Saturday appointed Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor, former Army Chief of Staff, to make a special survey of U. s. capabilities in the field of "nonconVentional warfare such as guerrilla activity.
 Pierre Salinger, White House Press Secretary, said that mon conventional warfare in this case is not used in the usual sense of nuclear warfare but of tacti- cal operations.
 Salinger said Kennedy decided within the last few days that such a survey is necessary and asked Taylor Friday to conduct 1t.
 The study clearly was inspired by events of the past week in Cuba.
 Pressed by neWsmen for the purpose Kennedy has in mind in designating Taylor to conduct a study of a specialized phase of military operations, Salinger cited the last paragraph of Kennedy's speech two days ago before a group of the American Society of Newspaper Editors.
 "We intend to profit from this lesson. We intend to re-examine and re-orient our forces of all kinds - our tactics and other institutions here in this com munity. We intend to intensity our efforts for struggle in many ways more difficult than war where disappointment will often accompany us"

CAMP DAVID, Md lP - Presi- dent Kennedy and former Presi- dent Eisenhower conferred on the Cuban crisis Saturday. When it concluded, Eisenhower called on all Americans to support the President in his stand on for eign affairs.
 Kennedy's purpose apparently was to help rally strong national support for whatever further steps he thinks this country must take in the Cuban crisis
 Speaking briefly with newsmen after the talks, Kennedy said he invited Eisenhower in to "bring him up to date on recent events"
 Kennedy said he also sought the benefits of EisenhoWer's thoughts and experience. ."
 Eisenhower was asked if he sup ported Kennedy's outspoken posi- ton on Cuba. Eisenhower did not answer directly, but said:
 T am all in favor of the United States supporting the man who has to carry the responsibility for our foreign affairs"
 Just before that Eisenhower was asked what he had to say about his conversation with Kennedy.
 Tt is very nice to be in posi- ton where you are not expected or really even allowed to say any thing" Eisenhower replied.

SWedes Float .300- ear-Oid Sunken Warship

STOCKHOLM. Sweden P - The broken superstructure of d 14,000-ton man-of-War which cap slzed on her maiden voyage three centuries ago emerged from the harbor today and thousands of SWedes cheered.
 A salvage crew began raising the Wasa, once the flagship of SWeden's warrior King Gustavus Adolphus. The sunken hulk is cradled in a special net of nine- inch steel wires attached to pom toons.
 The Wasa went down on Aug. 10, 1928 in full battle array, to the dismay of her designers. Through the centuries all at tempts to raise her have failed.
 Navy frogmen and divers spent more than 1,50O hours below sur face working on the wreck, strengthening the hulk with bolts and braces.
 When the rails of the Wasa reach the surface in the next few days, pumps will be lowered into her hull. By the middle of May the vessel is expected to float ing again. Then she will be lowed to a dock and converted into a museum.
