Officials Note
Cuba Bui|dup
IsContinuing
Situation Called
Grave, Action
Muy Be Required


partment spokesmen today
warned that further United
States action beyond the block
ade of Cuba may be necessary
because work on Soviet mis-
Sile sites in Cuba is continuing.
Officials pointedly under
lined President Kennedy'S
warning in his speech Monday
night that should these Of
fensive military preparations
continue, thus increasing the
threat to the hemisphere, fur
ther action will be justified"
State Department Press Of
ficer Lincoln White refused to
speculate on what further steps
the United States might take.
II simply cite to you the
gravity Of the situation" he
said.
Statement Later
White House officials indi-
Gated a further statement on
missile site activity in Cuba
might be made later today.
They also reported there was
no indication that events of the
last "a hours have eased the
crisis over Cuba.
There was no direct answer
to questions whether the Gov
ernment is considering direct
action against the missile sites.
Likewise, White House Of
ficials who we're asked whether
Mr.. Kennedy had been in touch
with Soviet Premier Khru-
shchev were told only that
when any information on the
subject becomes available it will
be passed along
Arthur Sylvester, Assistant
Secretary of Defense, told a
news conference last night at
the Pentagon that constant
surveillance" has disclosed the
work on the Cuban bases is
proceeding rapidly.
High and low level aerial
photos in possession of the
armed forces show that, far
from dismantling the launch
ing sites, work on them is con-
tinuing, Mr.. Sylvester said.
"SOOner the Better"
Mr.. Sylvester was asked how
much time Cuban Premier
Fidel Castro had to remove the
missile bases.
"The sooner the better" Mr..
Sylvester said.
One authority said President
Kennedy'S address to the Ma
ton announcing the quar-
antine speaks for itself" on
the matter of how the bases
could be eliminated. In his ad-
dress, Mr.. Kennedy spoke of
initial steps and said others
might be needed, but these
were not spelled out.
But the blockade will con-
tinue as long as there are Rus
sian ships headed toward Cuba,
even though the President has
expressed willingness to explore
possibilities for a peaceful set
tlement of the impaSse.
Government sources pointed
out that the United States has

The Story of Royalty
In Full ReqoIio

There's such divinity doth
hedge q king
That treason can but peep
to tDhdt it DouId.
Those who most extended
the monarchial principle
are treated at length: Char
legmagne, who as the "su-
preme example of the Chris
tian king" introduced the
doctrine of royal responsible
ity; Edward 1. who estab-
lished constitutional mon
archy; Louis XIV, the Sun
King, as the "personification
Of national prestige and
glory; Frederick the Great,
the paternal autocrat; and
Napoleon, whose "Bonapart-
ism" signifies despotism by
popular consent.
Along the By-Ways
The tantalizing by-ways Of
this regal progress are also
explored. In pomp amid cir
cumstance the romance Of
such figures as Jenghiz
Khan, Tamerlane, Montezu-
ma, and Prince Ito are evoked
to relive their brief hour
upon the historical stage. Not
least among these fascina-
tions are the sordid emper-
ors of declining Rome, the
Syrian matriarchs, and the
Mohammedan calip hate.
Here is matter to be rifled
by graveled scenarists In the
name of De Mile. For ulti-
mately history is stranger
than both its sources, truth
and fiction.
Sir Harold closes by cele-
brating Gin living COLOR con-
constitutional m onarch hyr
through adoring analysis of
the English institution and
strappings. Naturally.
True. his rousing testimonial
to the efficacy of a heredi-
tary sovereign is somewhat
clouded by an earlier admis-
sion that logically, Of
course; the presidential priI1-
ciple whereby an individual
is elected on his merits, Is
more defensible." But though
he may be Labor, the loyalty
Of his opposition shines in
qualified awe before regal
grandeur.
The alien republican mind
may not be edited, but 1t
surely will be delightfully."- in
formed by this sumptuous
book, with its humane text
and lavish illustration. More

ence, emancipation sheer
