Cubo Ship Curbs
Still Considered
BY the Associated Press

A State Department spokes-
man says a shipping order de-
signed to tighten the economic
squeeze on Cuba is still under
consideration by the Govern
ment.
The proposed order, barring
United States vessels from
going to Cuba and imposing
some penalties on non-United
States ships carrying Com
munist-bloc aid there, was
about to be proclaimed when
the Government decided the
SovietS had sent long-range
offensive weapons to Cuba.
President Kennedy ordered a
blockade to force the Russians
to take the weapons out. The
shipping order was held back.
Asked what the prospects are
now for an anti-Cuban shipping
order, State Department Press
Officer Lincoln White said,
there are number of subjects
relating to Cuba and this
shipping order is one of them"
United States officials have
estimated in the past that
Russia was spending some 81
million a day on aid to prop up
the Havana regime of Fidel
Castro. Part of the United
States strategy has been to
make Communicative aid to
Cuba as expensive as possible,
and this was a reason behind
the proposed shipping order.

Kennedy Defends
Orbit Story Sales
By the Associated Press

A Washington book publisher
says President Kennedy has
defended the policy of allowing
astronautS to sell stories of
their experience in space.
M. B. Schnapper, editor of
Public Affairs Press, said the
President informed him, In a
November 5 letter, that the
latest policy was adopted only
after most careful review of the
facts and lengthy consultations
both within and without the
Government"
Efforts were directed toward
removing specific controversial
aspects of the original astro-
nauts' agreement, and we be-
lieve this goal has been reason
ably achieved" the Kennedy
letter said.
AStronautS are permitted to
sell stories on their experiences
after having made themselves
available for questioning by
representatives of the Nations
news media in at least two
news conferences following
their flights.
Mr.. Schnapper has been pro-
testing in and out of court
since 1858 the copyrighting of
speeches by Government Off
Gals and news releases of the
Defense Department and the
Atomic Energy Commission. He
said the Presidents letter was
in response to the latest pro-
test in his campaign.
