BUDAPEST, Hungary, May
IA (AP).-The Vatican, the
United States and Hungary's
Communist government re-
portedly have reached an agree
ment that will allow Joseph
Cardinal Mindszenty to leave
for Rome.
High Vatican sources said
they expect the 7l-year-old
Roman Catholic primate OF
Hungary in Rome in few days
to assume a high Vatican post.
Informants in Budapest re-
ported last night that long
negotiations proved fruitful.
Would Remove Barrier
Freeing of the cardinal would
remove one barrier to resump-
ton of normal diplomatic re-
lations between the United
States and Hungary and would
improve relations between the
Vatican and the Hungarian
government.
No information was available
on details of the agreement. but
it is believed to include other
concessions to the Vatican.
The Hungarian Communists
sentenced the prelate to life
Imprisonment in 1949 for
alleged high treason. Liberated
in the 1856 uprising. he took
refuge in the United States
Legation in Budapest when the
Russians crushed the revolt and
he has been there ever since.
The cardinal for years re-
fused any suggestion for safe
conduct out of the country. In
stead he demanded to be ex-
onerated of the charges against
him and to be allowed to re-
sumo his normal activities as
primate of Hungary.
Advice Offered
Under canon law Pope John
XIII could not order the
cardinal to leave Hungary. But
we'll informed church sources
reported in March that the
Pope had offered to advise
Cardinal Mindszenty to leave

accommodate up to 80 students
in the special classes, Assistant
Supt. John D. Koontz told the
Board of Education.
Mr.. Koontz said If Congress
provides supplemental funds,
the program will begin in Sep
tember. The school board then
suspended rules to allow the
operation Of the late-day pro-
gram until June 30, 1854.
The plan initially would in
clude two units OF 40 students
each. Mr.. Koontz said. He
added that he hoped there
would be one teacher for each
10 pupils. but that the ratio
would have to be adjusted as
the classes went on.
Stress on Reading
Heavy emphasis would be
placed on remedial reading,
Mr.. Koontz said. He said aca-
demic and shop work might be
combined with part-time en-
ployment before school hours.
English, mathematics and
science would be taught in a
program closely tailored to the
abilities Of each student. he
said.
There would be daily physi-
cal education classes. The
school day would begin at $3.50
pm. and consist OF five 40
minute classes.
District counselors would ado
"a new dimension" to their
jobs, he said, by visiting stu.
dents at work and home anc
helping them In school.
Mr.. Koontz said he hoped
each student would have 8

Mr.. Mcnamara disclosed in
comprehensive detail through
more pictures the kind of
defensive" military power the
SovietS are keeping in Cuba to
the great concern Of this
Government.
He said "only the future can
tell" whether the continued So
Wet military activity in Cuba
might result in a new American
show of strength similar to that
which forced withdrawal OF
Soviet ballistic missiles and Jet
bombers last fall.
The Defe nse Secretary re-
ported. however, that some of
the Frog" rocket equipment of
the Soviet combat forces in
Cuba was moved out two days
after Christmas. Whether this
the Russian soldiers may
pull out, he did not pretend
to know.

While steering clear of say
ing so directly, Mr.. Mcnamara
indicated that as things stand,
the United States does not in
tend to force withdrawal of the
Soviet troops.
But he said this Government
has contingency plans to pre-
vent" Cuba being used as a
base for Communist subversion

the extraordinary two-hour
briefing at the State Depart
ment.
He cautione& against the
conclusion that the four units
are moving out Of Cuba. Why
they remain II don't know
Mr.. Mcnamara said. II think
1t Is quite clear that they were
sent there initially to protect
the offensive weapons systems
introduced by the Soviets into
Cuba"
Training In Doubt
Soviet forces are not known
to be training Cubans or other
Latins in subversion and guer-
rilla warfare, the Secretary
indicated.
President Kennedy has warned
that the United States will not
tolerate the use of Cuba as a
base for Communist subversion
in the Western Hemisphere.
But the President has ruled
out, American support for a
second invasion of Cuba by
exiles. Officials acknowledged
that this may encourage anti
Communists inside Cuba to try
a revolt since hope for help
from the outside is thus dashed.
The danger in the lingering
Soviet military presence" in
Cuba, officials here say, is that
Premier Khrushchev may re-
gard the forces as insulation
against any American move to
help an anti Communist up
rising.
This would be a miscalcula-
ton. informed administration
officials say privately, Of the
same proportions as Mr.. Khru-
shchev's original decision to try
to install Soviet nuclear rockets

Mr.. Pearson also said he did
not believe nuclear weapons
should be a political issue. That
should be a matter for govern

The real issue of the cam
paign, Mr.. Pearson said, is un-
employment. economic growth

economy, plus the need for de-

But the leader of the New

party is concerned. The New

OTTAWA. Feb. 7 (APD -
Canada's plunge into a new ma
tional election campaign was
accompanied today by pressure
on Prime Minister John Diefen-
baker to go easy on anti-Arner-
icanism. The pressure came
from both inside and outside
his Conservative Party.
Mr.. Diefenbaker went through
the formahties yesterday OF
dissolving Parliament and call
ing for new elections April 8
after his regime was unseated
by two non-confidence votes in
the House of Commons. The
move did not affect the Senate,
whose members serve for life
Despite his defeat in Com
mons, Mr.. Diefenbaker's shaken
Conservative Party closed ranks
behind him at a caucus of the
party's members in Commons
and retained him as its leader
Earlier some Conservatives had
called for him to step aside.
Liberals DeplOre Rift
Although some Conservative
leaders declared that anti
Americanism will not be a cam
paign issue. the 67-year-old
Prime Minister as recently as
Tuesday accused the United
States Of more meddling In
Canada. Mr.. Diefenbaker ap-
peared committed TO hit hard
on the question OF Canadian
sovereignty and the idea that
nobody is going TO push Cana

Broken Crate Sighted
This conclusion was con-
firmed when an October Is

Star staff Writsr

If all the controversy over
Cuba has so far proved any
thing, 1t is that the Kennedy
administration is more COM
mitted than ever to contain
ment-not liberation-of Castro
Cuba.
In their staggered "intelli-
gence duet" before separate
audiences here yesterday, both
Secretary Of Defense Mcnamara
and CHA Director John A. Nc
Cone played the same confident
melody - the Soviet military
buildup in Cuba is worrisome-
but not too worrisome.
Certain key refrains recurred
in the performances of both
men.
I'VE are convinced beyond
reasonable doubt" Mr.. McCone
said in his public statement on
Capitol Hill. that all offensive
missiles and bombers known to
be in Cuba Tin OCTOBER were
withdrawn soon thereafter"
mo offensive weapons sys-
tenn remain in Cuba" said Mr..
Mcnamara to his marathon
press conference in the State
Department, land I am salts
fled Of this beyond any reason
able doubt"
Indeed, Mr.. Mcnamara was
so restrained as to be down.
right soothing. From the out
set he had a single message,
and he refused to be drawn
beyond it-even by provocative
reporters armed with statistics
but no slides-to compete
with his own.
At four separate points Mr..
Mcnamara referred to what he
called the clear national pol
icy" toward Cuba.
"The President has stated"
he said, that 1t is the policy
Iof the Government to prevent
the use Of Cuba as a base for
subversion or overt aggression
against the other nations of
the hemisphere"
He would not predict the
future, but he did everything
security permits to show that
such a base does not exist at
