 The Jack, the third Thresher class submarine built at the Ports mouth yard, went down the ways and into the estuary of the Pis- cataqua River shortly before noon. It was at 9:17 am. April 10 that last contact was made with the Thresher.
 The Jack was christened by Mrs. Leslie Groves of Darien, Conn.,, wife of the retired Army lieutenant general who at one time headed the Manhattan prof ect for development of the atomic bomb.

 In the principal address preced- ing the launching, Groves referred to the dangers involved for crew men aboard such a ship.
 Military service is not without | it's hazards" he said. ITO make our country strong our men in uniform must run such risks as are necessary to insure the maximum development of their equipment and the means of using that equip ment, including the limits in which it can be safely employed"

Three Americans Released from
 Cuban Jails We're Intelligence Agents

WASHINGTON R - Congress sional sources said today that three of the prisoners released by Cuba's Fidel Castro in an exchange for four held in the United States were Central Intelligence agents.
 Castro was said to be aware that some of the prisoners he agreed with New York attorney James Donovan to exchange were CHA employees.
 Members of Congress familiar with the situation said that Dono- van was acting under government orders in making the pact with Castro to release three Cubans and a Cuban-American who were held in US. jails.
 Among the Cubans released was Francisco Molina Del Rio, serving a sentence of 20 years to life in New York for killing a nine-year- old girl during a brawl in New York between Castro-Cubans and refugee Cubans. He is a former Castro bodyguard.
 In St. Louis, the St. Louis Globe Democrat reported in copyrighted story that an undercover employe of the Central Intelligence Agency was among 21 Americans recently released from Cuban prisons.
 He was identified as Daniel Carswell, 45, supposedly an engi- neer from Eastchester, NY. His real identity, the paper said, re- mained concealed.
 CarsWell was imprisoned more than 21s years on a 10-year espi- onage sentence. Fidel Castro knew of Carswell's alleged connection with the CHA, the Globe-Democrat said.
 The CHA had no comment on the story.
 The paper reported Castro's agents arrested Carswen Sept. IA. 1860, on charges of spying on a Red Chinese news agency in Ha- vana. "A revolutionary tribunal convicted him three months later and sent him to the Isle of Pines prison.
 Carswell, who lists his birth place as Ashland, Pa, was flown with 20 other Americans follow ing his release to a military air port near Miami. Then Carswell, a bachelor, left for Washington, the Globe-Democrat said.

So Million Project
Due to Diversity
Agriculture

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,
Feb. 13.-The United Nations
has agreed to give a six-month
trial to an explosively con-
troversial Cuba-aid project, ac-
cording to information reach
ing here from Rome. The total
cost of the project could reach
SO million, with the U. N. share
pegged at $1,157,600
Diplomatic sources said to-
day that after nearly two
years of hesitation, the U. N.
has authorized B. r. Sen,
director-general of the U. N.
Food and Agriculture Organ
ization, to sign a plan of oper-
ations," or contract, launching
the project-a scheme to help
diversity Cuban agriculture.
The signing is expected to
take place at FAC headquarters
in Rome this week.
The six-month trial period
seeks to strike O compromise
between persistent Cuban de-
mands for an unconditional
five-year aid plan and Amer
ican insistence that the U. N.
should not aid Cuba at all.
The United States has fought
the plan since May. 1861. when
it was given tentative approval
by the governing council of the
U. N. Special Fund, and re-
peated its objections in strong
terms today.
Paul G. Hoffman, former di-
rector of the Marshall Plan,
is managing director Of the
fund.
Washington has feared a
major omburst of public and
congressional indignation at
the U. N. 1t also has objected
that the plan cuts across
American efforts to put an
economic squeeze on Premier
Fidel Castro.
Mr.. Hoffman refused to COM
ment on the project, but other
sources defended it in these
terms:
i. No American dollars will
be used in the project, and no
American experts will be en-
ployed.
2. The project can be Cancelled
after six months If conditions
warrant. Only 100000 will
have been committed and only
five experts employed up until
then.
3. Only IL researchers will
be involved in all, even If the
project is completed. The re-
suits of their work will not be
felt in Cuba for at least six
years. II Mr.. Castro is still in
power at that time, the added
impact Of a small U. N. aid
plan will not make much differ
ence to his hold on the country.
4. U. N. economic aid can
not be bound by political
strings. \

If the steering groups should
vote to expand the Finance
Committee, Republican Leader
Dirksen has promised to fight
this action in the Senate it
self. Presumably he would

support, plus that of many

Bow to Liberals
The Presidents action in
stepping into the controversy
was regarded in some quarters
as a move to placate liberal
Democrats who complained
bitterly that he did not lift a
hand for them in their vain
effort to make 1t easier for
the Senate to cut off filibusters.
When that matter was before
the Senate, Senator Mansfield
said that it was the Senate's
business alone and Mr.. Ken
