Washington, D. c. Sept. 10
While better marketing alone
cannot solve the agricultural
problem Of newly independent
Jamaica, it can 60 a long way,
say two agricultural economists
of the U. S. Department Of
Agriculture.
VIM F. Finner, former Food
and Agriculture Organization
marketing advisor to the Jamai-
can Government, and Fred L.
Faber, who has studied poultry
marketing in Puerto Rico, ex-
press their views on the out
look for Jamaican agriculture in
the August issue of Marketing
and Transportation Situation"
USDA publication.
In addition to better market
ing, they emphasize the need for
improving all phases of Jamai-
can agriculture. These include
remedying the shortage of wat
er and electricity, improving the
technical knowledge Of the 20O,-
900 farmers in the country,
correcting the defects in the
land tenure system, as we'll as
in the credit and tax systems,
and providing broader educa-
tional opportunities.
But Fisher and Faber say
that the absence of marketing
improvements probably would
nullify to a large extent other
measures taken to strengthen
agriculture.
The major marketing problem
is the production Of too many
products in too small quantity.
This results in part from the
fact that 100000, or 70 per-

ture of the University"
"We live in new and chang
ing world" he stated. "The
world rhythm no longer is the
music set by Europe. It's themes
are set in Africa and Asia,
where a great pageant Of eman-
cipation has unfolded. The Ne
gro problem in America has
not escaped the common lot"
He said Howard University,
in its tide of rising development
may enlarge its stature beyond
the limits of America and the
Negro people in the measure
and to the extent that it gives
expression to its potentialities
of mind and spirit. "The faculty
of Howard is the future of the
University" he stated.
DR.. Nabrit said more than 95
new teachers have been added
to the faculties of the University
for the 1962-63 school year, and
that a 71a per cent across-the-
board salary increase has been
given to all regular staff men,
bers. both in teaching and nom
teaching ranks. Additionally, he
declared, a system of merit in
creases has been inaugurated
for teaching personnel singled
out because of some significant
contribution to the University or
their profession, or because of
scholarly publications."

begin during this school year.
The new classroom building, to
be located near the new home
economics building, will be a
completely air-conditioned unit.
It's construction, DR.. Nabrit
said, will require the razing of
Spaulding Hall and the temper
airy building used as a student
center.
The president said that the
preparation of plans for a new
School of Social Work building
is included in the University's
work this year, in addition to
plans for a new residence hall
for men.
On the transfer of Freed
mems Hospital to the Univer-
sity, he noted that this is "still
two years away" Last year
Congress passed a law author
izing the transfer of the hos
pital under the University's adj
ministration, but the effective
date of transfer is still distant,
according to DR.. Nabrit.

struction of new facilities for

Ieet! Chinese Drive eI4ee,,e, Into India

NEW DELHI, India R-Chinese troops drove deeper into India to- day and President Sarvelpalli Rad- fakrishnan proclaimed q state of emergency putting the nation on a war footing.
 Prime Minister Nehru's govern ment was given supreme powers to rally the nations 457 million persons for an all-out defense of what he has charged is=a Com= munist threat to their freedom.
 The emergency proclamation came as the Chinese kept up their attacks at both ends of the north eastern frontier.
 India, rushing regular army troops to the fronts to bolster outposts manned by border guards, claimed the Communists had been beaten off at two points as resis- tance stiffened.
 Nehru has held off formally de- claring India at War with Red China but under the state of emef- gency= his central government can take over any power presently held by any of the nations 15 states. Freedom of speech may be curtailed and powers of the courts on matters of ordinary funda- mental rights limited.
 Almost a week after the Chinese launched their offensive into India there is still no sign of the Indian army being able to check Com munist advances. The fighting is reported bitter and casualties heavy but no statistics have beer released. The Red Chinese are saio to be taking no prisoners.

Missile Blrildup In Cuba Continues

WASHINGTON tR The White House said today the Russian mis- sile buildup in Cuba is continuing al rapid pace, apparently difec- ted al achieving full operatienal eapability as soon as possible
 The report was based on results of surveillance through yesterday.
 It described the scene at missile sites indicating the Russians had not slowed down their attempt to establish rocket launching plat forms, despite President Ken nedx,s declaration that existence of those sites has brought on fhe crisis
 The statement concluded:
 In summary, there is no eTi= denee to date indicating that there is any intention to dismantle or discontinue work on these missile sites. On the contrary, the Soviets are rapidly continuing their con- struetion of missile support and launch facilities, and serious at tempts are under way to eameu- fage their efforts.
 Kennedy had said in his report to the nation last Monday the US was prepared to take action be- Yond the blockade against Wea- pons shipments in the missile in- stallations in Cuba were not dis mantled.
 A State Department spokesman pointed to that statement earlier when questioned about indications that the SoVlets are continuing the buildup.
 White House press secretary : Pierre Salinger declined to go be yond the official White House statement
 Lincoln White, the department s press officer, said, "The activity at these sites apparently is directed at achieving full operational capabiilty as soon as possible.
 White declined 10 speculate on just what the United States might do. However, officials said sur veillance discloses that the work of building missile sites in Cuba is continuing.

U $. SuccessfulIn 9th Try For High
 Altitude Blast Test

HONOLULU 1R = The United States exploded sub-megaton nuclear device at high altitude above the Pacific early today. The flash briefly lit the ocean with a rainbow of red, green and blue for hundreds of miles.
 A Thor missile, which failed in three previous tries at the same test, carried the warhead to it's firing height, estimated at 30 to 40 miles.
 The nuclear device packed a wallop of between 20,000 and a million tons of TINT. It was the second most powerful high-alti- tude explosion of the 1862 series
 The actual detonation occurred near Johnston 1slanl, 750 miles southwest of Hawaii The blast was clearly visible there but in Homo lulu it was a short-lived flash of light.
 The test was the third high altitude success of the draWn-out Operation Dominic series which began April 25. The first was a thermo-nuclear blast July 8 which created a giant radiation belt in outer space and lit up the Pacific with dazzling array of color.
 Four tries have failed = three with the sub-megaton warhead and one with a thermo-nuclear package. Malfunctions in the Thor caused each failure and rockets and Warheads had to be destroyed without nuclear detonations.

Navy Boards But Passes Freigl,ter
 Bound + or Cuba

WASHINGTON 6p A US. Navy party boarded a Russian owned Lebanese freighter today, and reported more than two hours later that no offensive weapons material was aboard
 The freighter, Marucla. was per mitted to sail on for Havana with cargo described as 12 trucks, sulphur, paper rolls. and parts for trucks
 Asst. Secretary of Defense Syl- vester told news conference the Navy had received message say ing the boarding party was return ing to the destroyer Joseph P. Kennedy at 10:20 am. The mes sage reported that mo prohibited material has been found on board
 The stopping of the Marucla was the second intereeption announced and the first reported boarding by the Navy since it clamped a quar- antine on Communist arms ship ments to Cuba Wednesday morn ing.
 The Marucla, which Sylvester said was listed in Lloyd's Shipping Registry as a British-oWned World War II Liberty ship, was given permission to proceed on course for Havana.
 The first ship to be intercepted was the Soviet tanker Bucharest but she was not boarded and was allowed to proceed for Cuba after the Navy had checked her hatch work from afar to determine that she was a legitimate tanker and that her trim in the water indi- cated that she was fully loaded with fuel.
 The Defense Department an nounced yesterday that at least a dozen Soviet vessels had turned back presumably because they might have been carrying offen- sive materials
 "Most of the ships the Navy is interested in have turned around" one government official said.
 It was indicated that among the dozen Red ships diverted from Cuba was one identified by in- formed sources as the Polotavia.
 Three days ago, the Navy was reported keeping an especially close aerial watch on this big, modern Soviet ship which experts said is rigged to carry missiles.
