Truth About the Cuban Missiles

ures against possible nuclear
attack from a base only 80
miles away?
The only conclusion that
can be drawn is that the
administration took a chance
and preferred to wait for the
aerial photographs. Bad
weather did interfere, and
not until the night of Oc-
tober Is was the Photographic
confirmation in hand. 1t
was given to the President
the first thing the following
morning. Senator Kenneth
Heating of New York, Re-
publican, said in the Senate
on october 10 that he had
confirmed reports about the
MISUNDERSTANDING missile
bases under construction in
Cuba. These are plainly Of
fensive in character.
But during the seven days
from Tuesday, October 16,
through Monday, october %,
the United States Gov
eminent did not take any
action against Cuban bases,
as any military man would
have advised. The President
refrained also from making
any protest to the Soviet
government. In those seven
days, the Soviets could have
attacked many American
cities from Cuba.
Thanks to Nikita Khru-
Shchev, the episode has thus
far turned out all right, but
do not the hazards encount-
cred teach a lesson?
The Senate Foreign Rela-
tons Committee investigated
the flight of a U-2 plane
over Russia in May, 1860,
and blamed President Eisen-
hover for telling the truth
about it and particularly
for using the planes at that
time. Maybe, as a conSe-
quence, the theory has been
accepted that the truth must
not be revealed to the Ameri-
can people.
What really happened be-
tween mid-July and October
%, and who was to blame
for the risk taken? Why were
W. flights over Cuba sus-
pended for a long time? Why
was the naval blockade held
up for a month while the
Russians were unloading
their missiles and planes?
Congress alone can bring
out the truth.

sensible of their disadvan-
tage in registration. Even be-
fore the Cuban crisis, candi-
dates for Governor were in
general wary also of criticiz-
ing the President.
The advantage of Republic
can Statehouse gains lies
chiefly in the fresh faces they
will show the public. The
party's Senate and House
minorities have little to offer
in this respect, which is I'M
fortunate because the issues
which dominate today's ma
tional politics are interna-
tional.
The new crop of Governors
will find it hard to muscle
into that situation. This
would be true in any case;
1t is the more true because
most of them will have been
chosen to remedy economic
problems and situations at
home.

Group Indorses
Humane Society
Center Here

A northwest citizen group
passed a resolution last night
indorsing the proposed Nation
al Humane Society Center.
The proposed plan, sponsored
by the Humane Society Of the
United States. offers to con-
struct a $250,000 animal shell
ter for the District to replace
the present one soon to be torn
down as a part Of the area
redevelopment plan. The cen
ter would cost the taxpayer
nothing except operation cost.
Addressing the American
University Park Citizens Asso-
citation, Fred Meyers. executive
director of the national or
ganization, said his plan has
received little attention from
the District Commissioners and
the D. C. Congressional COM
mittees. He described the pres
ent animal control system as
lone of the worst in the coun-
try" and mentioned the posi-
bility Of no pound facilities
next year as the District budget
makes no provision for a new
shelter.
The group plans to send let
tiers to the Commissioners and
the committees urging animal
shelter action.
The meeting was held at the
River Road Church, Forty-fifth
street and River road NV.

DAVID LAWRENCE

Now that the election cam
paign is over, the American
people are entitled to know
the truth about the missile
build-up in Cuba - how
closely they came to being
the victims of a nuclear at
tack and another Pearl Har-
bor." Is it possible that the
United States didn't have re-
liable intelligence and had to
wait for aerial photography,
which can often be frus-
trated by weather condi-
tons?
All the facts have not as
yet been disclosed, but the
facts that are available put
the administration in a posi-
ton of having taken grave
chances with the security of
the United States. A case of
sheer negligence, if not in
competence, can be made
out, and that's why, in fair
ness to the administration,
any facts available that can
convincingly rebut such in
ferences should be revealed.
The American people are
partly responsible for the di-
lemma. They countenance
changes in key personnel at
the top in national defense
and security when there is a
political change of admins
tration. Continuity in GER
tain posts is imperative in an
era of crisis, especially in a
nuclear age.
A factual analysis of what
happened could show that
the United States Govern
ment really had the facts,
but that President Kennedy
and his group of advisers
did not eNaluate them cor
rectly. 1t is doubtful whether
any military man in the
group failed to size up &C
curately what was happen
ing. The lesson-unwittingly
revealed before MICS TV
panel, Meet the Press. on
Sunday-was expressed by T.
c. Sorensen, one of the small
group that sits in with the
President in many a conf
Dental discussion of public
policy. Mr.. Sorensen said:
II think the experience Of
the last two or three weeks
has taught us a great deal
about operations inside the

nine newspaper mechanical
and craft unions announced
they had decided to hold off
any immediate extension of the
strike to any other newspaper.
The Guild struck against the
Daily News last wednesday
midnight, when its individual
contracts with the seven major
newspapers expired. The Guild
chose the News as its target
in an attempt to get a con-
tract settlement that would set
a pattern for contracts with
the other papers.
Pay scales are a prime issue
in the strike. Others are guild
demands on working hours, job
security and various fringe
genetltS.
LOO Members on Strike
The Guild has about 1,100
members on the Daily News,
the Nations largest newspaper
with a daily circulation OF
about 2 million.
About 1000 members of the
nine mechanical and craft un-
ions refused to cross guild
picket lines at the Daily News
The contracts of these unions
expire shortly.
The last reported offer to the
Guild by the Daily News was
a weekly package increase o.
$7.25 in two. installments under
a new two-year contract, plu'
other benefits.

their way of thinking, in
stitttions and departments,
their way of operation"
This is a costly way of
teaching government to an
inexperienced administration.
The, New York Times last
Saturday published two full
pages of detail about the
missile build-up in Cuba as
gathered by nine reporters
and researchers. Even this
narrative. which is unoffi-
cial, is surprising in what it
discloses, 1t says in part:
1.-THE Soviet military
build-upiin Cuba started in
the Secord half of July. At
that time American inGelii-
gence sources reported sus-
picious movements of Soviet
ships apparently laden with
war material destined for
Cuba.
"All through August, &C
cording to intelligence re-
ports, the bItildup continued.
More than 80 ships unloaded
E. 1000 Soviet technicians and
instructors aud such war
materiel as surface-to-air
missiles, patrol boats with
missiles and MIG-21 fight
ers."
1t was on September 4 when
President Kennedy said pub
licly that, as far as was
known, the Soviet arms in
Cuba were defensive" The
Times story continues:
Within the administration
the possibility that some of
the buildup was offensive
was not being overlooked.
The intelligence community
- the Central Intelligence
Agency, military intelligence
and others-specificaly rails
ed the question whether
there might be surfsce-to-
surface missiles in Cuba with
nuclear warheads. -.
Gas a result of the
persistent reports and intel
ligence concern, President
Kennedy approved an order
apparently at the begin
ming of September-that the
entire island of Cuba be
photographed" 4

it was derisive. There were
original compositions played
way out-at time-outs and
during some of the half time
intermiSsion.
The game was hard-fought
and well-played. Each team,
well-coached, produced tough

BoIstering of Rockefeller in Elections
Called Preferable to Riqhtwinq Gains
DORIS FLEEsON

President Kennedy is faced
with a paradox in this cleo
ton. He is obliged to hope
that Republican victories will
strengthen the hand of his
most probable rival in 1864,
Gov. Rockefeller of New
York.
Should the Republican
rightwing make significant
a dvanceS, the Presidents
problems with the next Con-
gress will increase in proper
ton. This happened in 1860
when areas, mainly Midwest,
which deplored the Kennedy
religion and city background
added some 20 Republican
conservatives to the House
coalition.
The more it appears that,
after Tuesday, Rockefeller
moderates will control that
party's next national conven-
ton, the better it will be for
Mr.. Kennedy in the S8th
Congress. Beyond that point,
however, he can start worry
ing about Gov. Rockefeller's
popularity.
Within his own party, the
Presidents situation is al
ready somewhat improved,
especially in the South. Re-
apportionment and the Su-
preme Courts evident inten-
ton of pressing it already
have dislodged some hard
conservatives. Their success
sors hardly would carry a
New York precinct, but to an
important degree they reflect
urban, not rural attitudes,
and will necessarily be more
responsive on issues impor-
tant to city voters.
1t is noteworthy that the
governorships at stake, to
which Republicans look with
so much hope, offer little
rightwing celebration. Demo-
Gratis outside the South, of
course, had a refuge from
either right or left labels and
ran as Kennedy Democrats.
Republicans in the big
States have tended to min
imize the party brand, being
