Secretary Of Defense Nc
Namara comedies there may
be missiles hidden in the caves
that peck Cuba-but he says
they are not offensive weapons.
Behind the closed doors Of
the House Armed Services
Committee, Mr.. Mcnamara
dashed out at critics Of the
Kennedy Administrations pol
icy on Cuba. saying they damn
the intelligence community"
without knowing much about 1t.
And he insisted that no
United States-Soviet swap was
involved in the decision to re-
place Jupiter missiles in Tur-
key and Italy with submarine
borne Polaris missiles.
Mr.. McNamara's testimony
was made public today in a
censored transcript of closed
hearings held by the committee
In January and February.
Certain on Big Missiles
Mr.. Mcnamara said he is
convicted the Cubans and their
Soviet allies could not have
hidden big offensive ballistic
missiles in the caves in the Ca
ribbean island.
In testimony given the COM
mittee January 80, he said
United States intelligence has
detected five types Of missiles
still in Cuba, but all are defen-
sive in nature. This estimate OF
Just how many were on the
Communicated island at that
time was deleted by the CEN
sors.
Mcnamara bristled under
Republican questioning about
United States intelligence serv-
ices and their handling Of the
Cuban situation.
OSmer's Comment Rejected
Representative Osmers, Re-
publican Of New Jersey, said
fatty "our intelligence COM
munity is completely made
quate for meeting the prob
lens facing the country"
Mr.. Mcnamara called that
assertion completely errone-
GUS"
He said the Russians could
not send into Cuba "substan-
tial quantities Of equipment
which would endanger this Ma
tons security without being
detected by the intelligence re-
sources we have at our dis
posal. E.
ITO damn the intelligence
community as it has been
damned here this morning,
without knowing more about it
and without being able to sug-
gest a positive program that
will improve the situation, I
think is doing our Nation a
disservice," Mr.. Mcnamara
said.

"The normal enrolment fig

The significance lies in the

Need Communication
In agreeing that race pre-

larger community issue, the
majority of the panelists rec
ognized that better communi--

lent for successful public re-
lations.
Moderator Mr.. White, ended
the discussion with this plea.
Il consider it a tremendous
privilege to live in commu-

City Manager Apthorp,
speaking from the standpoint
of his office position, declared:
mo Serious Problem"
$50 far there have been no
serious problems; l think the
problems lie ahead. The nub
lies in what we are going to
do about them before they
arise"
Some of the future concerns
he mentioned were aging
homes, and their possible re-
placement; strip-business and
rezoning; and q reduced econo-
mic standard Of our citizens.
Future financing of new
ventures could be more diff
cult, with the additional posi-
bility of increased welfare, rec
reation, and housing inspec-
tions as a drain on present
city funds, he observed.
Demonstrating a picture of
the well-informed school ad-
ministrator, DR.. Nichols pre-
sented a variety of statistics
relative to school enrolment.
BY September of 1868, Ro-
zelle School will have doubled
its enrolment in five years,

He added that a high per-
centage of absentee landlords
have created a different type
of resident than in the past.
DR.. Turner, as one of the
city"s new citizens" began
his Introductory words with a
revelation of asons for
choosing East Cleveland for
his home.
He listed the same factors
that appeal to white residents:
fine schools, outstanding city
government, and excellent law
enforcement and services.
Maintain Status Quo
"Our vision," said DR.. Turn
er, SHOULD not be tied to main
tanning the status quo. One
must decide to improve; we
must raise our sights to have
the best schools, and the most
desirable community" Later,
he added:
"There's no sin in having
a community problem, for all
similar cities are suffering in
much the same way. The sin
lies in doing nothing about the
problem"

figures pointed to the fact that
East Cleveland's problem is
not basically one of race, but
of age.
For example, $50 per cent of
our homes are over 20 years
old; 20 per cent are over fifty
years old. On the changing
aspects Of the city, 81 per cent
of the population has lived
here less than five years; AZ

Supply Bikes
With Locks
Urges Chief

Chief of Police H. s. Weav-
yer requests parents whose
children have bicycles to pro-
vide them with locks so that
when they leave to indulge
in activities or attend school
they will be able to secure
them.
At this time of the year
and through the summer
months, bicycle stealing is
usually high, he noted.
1T costs parents quite
bit of money to purchase
bicycles for their children
and every precaution should
be taken so that they cannot
be stolen" the chief said.

down the request Of Hough
Bakery to rezone five lots on
Auburndale for the construc-
ton Of 100000 addition for
shipping facilities.
In making motion to turn
down the bakery's request,
Commissioner }. Durant Mix
said that in view Of a federal
grant for a Master Plan, the
city should move slowly in
making any zoning changes
which might possibly interfere
with what the Planning Com
mission might have in mind.
Prompt By Opposition
The commission also was
prompt in its action by the
widespread opposition that saw
more than 80 residents Of the
area against the rezoning ap-
pear at the meeting. The fact
that most of them were from
the Cleveland side Of the street
did not alter the official think
ing.
City Manager Grant Apthorp
pointed out that if this opposi-
ton would have been as strong
at the Board Of Zoning APP
peals meeting month ago.
that group would not have
moved as hastily as it did on
the issue. The zoners okayed
the rezoning.
Denies Changing Mind
An accusation that Apthorp
had committed himself on be
ing in favor of the rezoning by
the Hough attorney, William
Calfee, was emphatically de-
MED by the City Manager.
The lawyer also stated that
the action of the Commission
was an indication that you
don't want Hough Bakery in
this area" This was quickly
denied by Apthorp and the
Commissioners.
Representing group Of
homeowners OF the street was
Attorney Eugene !. Selker who
used several different types OF
maps to explain that the re-
zoning would not he consistent
with the way the area now is.
Would Leave Area Open
He also pointed out that re-
zoning the five lots involved
would leave the area open for
such businesses as a dance hall
or a bottling firm.
The two lawyers clashed on
several occasions during the
two-hour public hearing with
Calfee questioning a petition
of objectors that wasn't notar-
lied. The lawyer also accused
Selker Of expressing his own
opinions and not showing the
courtesy Of bringing experts
to discuss the issue. Calfee had
an experienced real estate ap-
raiser at the meeting.
The Hough Bakery lawyer
also charged that attorneys
are carried away by their own
side Of cases"
He further stated that the
commissioners action would
end the bakery's hopes Of eX-
panding because waiting for
the Regional Planning Com
mission to act would be mat
ter Of a couple Of years
Selker pointed out an cob
vious need for combined muni-
cipal efforts between East
Cleveland and Cleveland" and
he proposed that the planning
study of the two municipalities
be coordinated and information
mutually exchanged.
Several residents of the area.
both from Cleveland and East
Cleveland expressed fears that
the rezoning would lower the
value of their homes.
In other action. closely re-
lated to this rezoning problem,
the Commissioners appropriat-
ed $4,000 as the city's one
third cost of the proposed
Master Plan.
