posed that the U. N. Security
Council send observers to Cuba
to verify that Soviet missile
bases were dismantled, as the
United States demanded. Mr.
Castro said Tuesday night that
such observers had better go
armed to fight.
Mr.. Thant, repeating an
appeal made in the Security
Council Wednesday, wrote Mr..
Castro yesterday to direct that
the construction of "installa-
lions designed to launc h
medium range and intermediate
range ballistic missiles be sus-
pended during the period of
negotiations which are now
under way"
Mr.. Castro replied that Cuba
would be prepared to accept
the compromises that you re-
quest provided that at the
same time, while negotiations
are in progress, the United
States Government desists
from threats and aggressive
actions against Cuba, including
the naval blockade of our coun-
try"
Consider Proposals
Mr.. Castro expressed willing
ness to consider any new sug-
gestion from Mr.. Thant. He
added:
Furthermore, should you
consider it useful to the cause
of peace, our government would
be glad to receive you in our
country, as secretary general
Of the United Nations, with a
view to direct discussions on
the present crisis. prompted by
our common purpose of free
ing mankind from the dangers
of war ="
Mr.. Castro said Cuba "flatly
rejects the violation of the SOW
ereignty of our country in
volyed in the naval blockade,
an act of force and war"
"In addition" he declared,
"it fatty rejects the presump-
ton Of the United States to
determine what actions we are
entitled to take within our
country, what kind of arms we
consider appropriate for our
defense, what relations we are
to have with the USSR."
Delivered By Delegate
Mr.. Castro's letter was de-
livered to Mr.. Thant by Cuban
Chief Delegate Mario Garcia
Inchaustegui.
Mr.. Khrushchev's proposal
for mutual weapons withdraw
ais from Cuba and Turkey got
a cold shoulder earlier in the
day at a U. N. delgate's confer
ence Of the United States and
10 allies, informed sources re-
ported.
One Western informant said
the delegates generally agreed
that Mr.. Khrushchev's/ pro
posal was in the wrong con-
text and certain to cause a
great prolongation of the
crisis" -.
Calls Meeting
There was no favorable re-
action to it," a United States
delegation source said after the
Commute meeting called by
United States Ambassador Ad-
lai E. Stevenson.
A United States delegation
spokesman said representatives
of Turkey, Italy, Britain,
France, Chile, Venezuela, Haiti,
Iran, Japan, West Germany.
Australia, Canada and Norway
met at the United States mis-
sion with Mr.. Stevenson.
Mr.. Stevenson had told re-
porters earlier: II think the
problem is unfolding"
The conference started just
as Soviet Deputy Foreign Min
lister Valerian A. Zorin arrived
at the U. N. to bring Mr.. Thant
the latest proposal from Pre-
mier Khrushchev.
After 80 minutes with Mr..
Thant, Mr.. Zorin told U. N. cor
