SMALL STEP FORWARD

President Kennedy and Secretary
z of State Rusk have portrayed in the
best light possible the results of the
conference of foreign ministers at
Punta Del Este.
This is not the first time. nor will
it be the last, that high American
officials have felt obliged to indulge
in self-congratulations lest political
opponents make capital out of their
shortcomings, no matter how trivial.
That's the way we play politics at
home and that's the way it is played
almost everywhere else.
We are bound to be disillusioned,
though, if we deceive ourselves into
thinking that what happened at Punta
Del Este marks a big step ahead. 1t
is small step forward and quite a
small one. Even if by chance Castro
should be thrown out of office. the
turmoil his movement reflects would
continue after him.
Indeed Cuba may remain a Com
munist beachhead, with or without
Castro, for long time to come. This
is not entirely the fault of the United
States, it's government or it's people.
We have so long been European and
Asia oriented that none of us paid
too much attention to what was 60
ing on in our own backyard.
The reports coming back from the
foreign ministers conference indi-
cate that there was something less
than total enchantment with the u. S.
program for isolating and containing
Castro Communism. Mr.. Rusk's per-
sonal standing, however, is high. He
worked under exceedingly difficult
circumstances. This was his first big
test and he made a good grade, if
not an A-plus.
There were several things the
friendly Latin Americans tried to
tell the members of the u. S. delega-
ton. They are by no means sure that |
their ideas took hold. And, it might |
be added, their appraisal might not
be entirely correct, although they |
have the advantage of being Latins
dealing with Latin problems.
First they sought to make us under
stand what Castro has done to our |
image. Notwithstanding the plau-
dts given President Kennedy on his
tour and the great hopes of the ALI
ance for Progress, he has damaged
us.
He has done this in several ways.
One method has been to play on the
natural sympathy of the downtrodden
for the "underdog". His propaganda
often stresses this theme: the "big"
Yankee VS.. the ''little Cuban.
In the time-tested manner of the
skilled demagogue he has also played
upon the poor mans natural desire
to see the high and mighty disturbed
in their majesty. In addition he has
''dared" the U. S. to do anything to
punish him. His haunting manner is
we'll known and he has become more
since the tragedy at The
Bay of Pigs.
Our friends in the Latin delega-
lions also tried to tell us how people
in their country viewed our anti
Castro tactics. Among many of their
it seemed as if we were
so bent on revenge for what happened /
asst spring that we had lost our sense {
If proportion and self-confidence. c
Or, put differently, they thought c
our delegation might maneuver itself
nto a position where anything short /
If sanctions would look like catas- |
rophic defeat. They felt we were I
'iding for a fall. This almost hap
,ened, but the good sense of our +
delegation and the friendly advice of 9
