Measurements from earth
give us controversial tempera-
ture readings-from 40 degrees
below zero in the atmosphere
TO more than 600 degrees above
near the surface"
Mr.. James said most SCI
entiStS doubt that plant or
animal life exists on Venus
because of the extremely high
surface atmosphere. He said
Mariner-2 could help substan-
tiate this theory.
Basis for Future Plans
During it's To-day trip to
Venus, Mariner-2 is to explore
conditions in interplanetary
space. The studies will de-
termine potential hazards to
manned space flight and lay
the groundwork for future
manned and unnamed probes
deep into the solar system.
Mariner 2 is the United
States last chance until early
1864 to send a payload to
Venus. The planet comes within
shooting range for a period of
several weeks every 10 months.
The space agency scheduled two
shots in the present 50-day
time slot which ends September
13. Mariner-1 failed July %,
when a faulty guidance equa-
ton sent the Atlas-Agena-B off
course and it was destroyed by
the range safety officer.
Russia last year sent a space
craft within $4,000 miles OF
Venus but no data was received
because the vehicles radios
tailed early in flight.

After an hours discussion
with the Shah, Mr.. Johnson put

into an imperial guard car and
drove through Teheran, shak-
ing hands, assuring Iranians in
the street of American backing
in the country's Developments.

He walked through canvas

fruit merchants, bought a
chromium chandelier in an
electric shop, accoSted pajama-
clad dwellers in a housing prof.
ect and was bearded by a lady
schoolteacher who told him
please tell Mr.. Kennedy we
have a budget deficit and we
need help"
AT one point. Mr.. Johnson's
car swerved off the road 50
quickly toward a housing de-
velopment that the motorcycle
escort had to backtrack franti,

johnson questioned them
about their rent-free-and ac-
commodation and knelt in a
bare plastered living room
where Mrs. Fazlaia Tajdini was
eating bread and grapes with
her five children. Mr.. johnson
handed ballpoint pens to the
youngsters and declared to a
cheering crowd of 100 outside
I'VE are both partners and both
dedicated to preserving liberty"
Mr.. Johnson's sudden stops,
off-the-cuff remarks and dis
dain of protocol astounded the
crowds and the imperial guard,
accustomed to starchy formal
ity in state guests.
When he approached a truck
packed with Iranian soldiers,
they drowned out his greetings
with friendly cries of: "Goodby,

Shot Toward Venus Set
For Early Tomorrow

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla,
Aug. Is (AP).-American SCI
entists plan early tomorrow to
launch a Mariner-2 spacecraft
toward Venus to probe secrets
of the planet.
Some time in a three hour
period after midnight, a power
full Atlas-Agena-B rocket is to
roar skyward to start the 447-
pound gold-and-silver-plated
payload on an intended 1872
million-mile trip across the
vastneSS of space.
If Mariner q successfully
completes a series of tricky
midcourse maneuvers, it will
streak within 10000 miles of
Venus on December IA and
electronic instruments will seek
to unlock mysteries which are
masked by a perpetual mantle
of heavy clouds around the
planet.
The findings will be radioed
to earth in a series of blips and
beeps which can be translated
into information about the
composition of the planets at
mosphere.
Information Sought
Jack James, Mariner Project
manager, said the vehicle could
shed considerable light on the
nature and environment of
Venus. Very little is known
about the planet now. We don't
know whether it spins, the con-
stituentS of its atmosphere,
whether it has a magnetic field
or a potential Van Allen-type
radiation belt.

BY LEWIS GULICK
Associated Press Staff Writer

United States officials ex-
pressed surprise today at re-
ports of the Shelling of a
Havana suburb. They quickly
dismissed Fidel Castro's charge
that the United States was to
blame.
A State Department SpokeS-
man said this morning that all
he knew about the naval at
tack was what he had seen in
news reports.
Other United States authori-
ties profeSSed to be equally
mystified. One said it may
never be known just who fired
the shells that repeatedly hit
a Cuban hotel housing Com
muniSt bloc technicians.
United States authorities de-
clared, at the same time, that
American policy remains op-
posed to use of American soil
by insurgent groups to mount
armed attacks against others
Many Theories
While they were checking for
further information on the Ha-
vana incident. United States
officials theorized that one of
the anti-CaStro exile groups
might have sneaked out to fire
on the Havana buildings under
cover of darkness and Sneaked
back undetected. In Miami one
refugee organization claimed
credit for the feat.
Other speculation was that
the incident could have been
caused by the Cuban navy it
self, either by excessively trig-
ger-happy Cuban sailors, de-
fectors, or conceivabIy on Mr..
Castro's own orders. There have
been reports that the Cuban
navy has been on maneuvers
in the Havan area.
Whatever the real cause, the
incident was handily timed for
Mr.. CaStro's use in his mount
ing wave of charges that the
United States is engaging in
aggressive acts.
Wave of Soviet Aid
This alleged fear of United
States attack is one of the rea-
sons given for the renewed
wave of Soviet arms aid to
Cuba. United States officials

The Soviet press criticized the
West today for declining to &C.
cept a German peace settle
ment along the lines of Premier
Khrushchev's proposals, and
warned that force would be met
by force.
Pravda, the Communist Party
newspaper. published a dis
patch from Berlin saying the
Russian abolition of the post
of commandant in Berlin
evoked concern, nervousness
and bitterness in the West Ger

said.

Those who threaten to use

said.

Krasnaya Zvesda, CRed Starr

dangerous attempts to force
capitalist ways upon Socialist
states"
Further, the paper said. the
success of the Rockets which
launched twin cosmonauts into
space should convince those
who doubt Soviet strength.
Rockets for Military
The paper quoted a recent
statement of MStiSlav Keldysh,
president of the Academy of
Science, to the effect that while
the rockets that launched the
coSmonauts were intended for
peace, they could be used
militarily.
KraSnaya Zvesda said the
success Of the launching
crossed out the hopes of Amer
leans in their aggressive plans.
The paper said only the "arms

West provoked further arming.

Mr.. Castro said armed ships
launched the attack on Mira
mar at 1880 pm. with mum
erous 20-caliber cannon fir.
ings." apparently meaning "a.
inch bore 20-millimeter guns.
"The attacking ships, hidden
in darkness. approached within
approximately one kilometer OF
the coast. opening fire on the
buildings of First street in
Miramar," the Castro COM
munique said.
I'm this area are numerous
lodgings of scholarship holders,
the buildings of Hotel lear, the
Chaplin Theater and separate
houses in which women and
children live. They received
multiple impacts of perforating
explosives, imperiling the lives
of their inhabitants.
"PiraticaI Spirit"
The traitorous surprise at
tack shows the cowardice, the
criminal and piratical spirit of
its authors. The Government
of the United States and the
Imercenary agents recruited and
armed by it who operate with
impunity from the coasts of
Florida are a mock of the ele-
mentary international laws and
norms.
"We make the Government
of the United States RESPONSE
BILE for this new and cowardly
attack on our country and we
denounce before the world the
aggressive plans which i'm
perialism is preparing against
Cuba. We warn the President
of the United States that our
people will adopt all the neces-
sary measures to confront the
danger.
THE Cuban revolution, which
could not be defeated by the
economic blockade nor by the
reiterated military actions, nor
by direct attack organized by
the United States, will be able
to resist and repulse direct
attack as we'll.
"Fatherland or death. We
will conquer"
Miramar is a suburb of
tree-lined streets where former
homes of moderately wealthy
Cubans now house scholarship
holders brought to Havana by
the government. It is also a
favorite residential area of
many diplomats and other
foreigners.
Big Play in Papers
The Castro communique was
featured on front pages Of
Havana newspapers under big
headlines. The 250-word state
ment did not report what hap
pened to the raiders.
Hoy carried photographs
showing how Yankee bullet"
shattered mirrors and glass
doors.
One picture showed a hole
beneath a window sill. On a
nearby bed, Hoy said. two sleep
ing children escaped death
when the bullets r:cocheted into
the ceiling.
The newspaper quoted hotel
employees and guests as saying
about so shots were fired.
Mr.. Castro visited the hotel
shortly after the attack.
The Armed Forces Ministry
denounced what it called two
further air space violations
by North American planes. -
These, the statement said, took

Hovonu SheIIing Report
Takes U. S. by Surprise

10 SJep up CUBAN coastal and
air defenseS.
United States officials re-
ported yesterday that eight
Russian cargo vessels recently
docked at Cuban ports with
military equipment and a dozen
more Soviet freighters are en-
route. An unspecified number
of additionl Soviet ships were
said to have brought an esti-
mated 5000 to 5000 Communist
bloc technicians.
The military cargoes report
edly included communications
vans. radar vans, trucks, mo-
bile generator units and per-
hapS anti-aircraft Csurface-to-
air. missiles of the Nike type
which Moscow has furnished to
Indonesia and Iraq.
/ More than half the tech
nicians appeared to be mill
tary specialists, the officials
said, but they estimated the
number would be reasonable
for assembling the weapons
and training the Cubans how
to use them.
They also reported no evil
dence of Soviet or other Com
munistS bloc combat troops,
Surface-to-Surface (offensive)
rockets. atomic warheads or
Communist Chinese tech
nicianS.
For these and other reasons,
the United States authorities
concluded that much of the
Soviet arms aid will go into
beefing up Mr.. Castro'S coastal
and air defenSes but his limited
offensive capability will not be
significantly improved.
Early Estimates
No estimate was Immediately
available on the dollar value
lof the Russian assistance,
though the new deliveries to
Cuba were described as worth
only a fraction of the more
than $500 million worth of Red
arms sent to Indonesia.
A State Department white
paper last January calculated
Red military aid to Castro at
$50 million to $100 million, in
cluding major weapons rang
ing from tanks to MIG aircraft
and machine guns. the num-
ber of bloc military technicians
then in Cuba was listed as 300
Why is the Kremlin now
sending another flood of mill
tary assistance to Cuba?
American officials speculate
the renewed help stems from
a Kremlin decision that the
Castro regime can be trusted
to pursue Communist aims
that Russia can now become
more fully involved with Cuba
and that large-Scale assistance
is needed to prop up the Ha-
vana government which has
severe economic and other
problems at home.
From Mr.. Castro's stand
point, it was theorized that the
Russian aid is welcome as a
strengthening of his force al
home and a demonstration to
the hemisphere of the might
of his Communist ally.
United States officials do not
regard Mr.. CaStro's problems at
home as severe enough to top
pie him now. Nor do they seem
particularly worried about the
prospect of his strengthened de-
fenSes.
There is some Washington
concern, however, over the
possibility that trigger happy
Castro forces might unleash
missiles at a United States
plane Straying over Cuban ter
ritory.
