Cuban in Jail

NEW YORK, Dec. 9 (AP)-
A Cuban national who police
said had done target practice
with a .22-caliber rifle was held
today in $4,000 bail after
being accused by the Secret
Service of Boosting he would
assaSsinate President johnson.
The Cuban, Omar Padilla,

the target. The building is not

he was being held under strong

elaborate.
Hostages Strongly Guarded
Tension increased in this
mountain capital. There were
fears that Bolivia's 100000
leftist-led miners might rise up
in a bloody revolt against Mr..
Paz and his government. despite
heavy troop concentrations in
the mine areas.
Mr.. Lechin heightened the
crisis over the week end by
stirring up antigovernment
agitation in the nationalized tin
mines. He is head of the tin
miners union.
Reports reaching La Paz said
he had set up a headquarters
in the mine areas near CataU,
where the four American hos
tages are held. Catavi is about
l55 miles southeast Of La Paz.
The government moved 1000
troops into the region around
Oruro, 80 miles north Of Catavi.

to the miners demand.
A White House statement
last night called the seizure Of
the Americans an indefensible
act and said President john
sons offer Of assistance would
include anything that might be
required.
The offer was said to include
military assistance. including
the loan Of military helicopters
and crews.
The statement said, THE
President has been assured
through our Ambassador In
Bolivia by the President Of
Bolivia that every effort is
being made to secure the
prompt release Of these United

The miners announced they
would start a series Of strikes

Jury Indicts
District Man in
Johnson Threat

A Washington man accused
Of threatening President John
sons life was indicted today
by a District grand jury.
Robert A. Weatherington,
40, of the 1900 block Of Twenty
fifth street Sc. was charged
by the jury with making an
oral threat in the presence
Of a Secret Service agent on
November 20 that he would
take the life of and to inflict
bodily harm upon the Presi-
dent of the United States"
Weatherington now is in
District General Hospital for
a back injury he said he suf-
fured during his arrest by Sc
cret Service agents. In court
papers filed through his attor-
ney, James J. Laughlin. he
claimed he was "brutally as
saulted."
Mr.. Laughlin last week Sc
cured a court order from
United States District Court
Judge Alexander Holtzoff, ask
ing the Government TO explain
Weatherington's detention al
the hospital. The Government,
because of the indictment
now has been able to show
cause for holding the suspect.
Weatherington, who was ar
rested on a warrant signed by
General Sessions Court Judge
Austin L. Tickling, will ap-
pear for arraignment in court
when he is released by the
hospital.
A conviction could bring q
maximum sentence Of five
years in jail or a $1,000 fine
or both.

Before Mr.. Celler spoke,
several Republican members
raised a question as to whether
the two-minute session Of the
House last Saturday conSti-
tuted a legislative day. Speaker
Mccormack ruled that it did.
Under House rules. notice Of
intended filing Of a discharge
petition must be given seven
legislative days in advance.
That prior notice was given
November 81. and Saturday
was the seventh legislative day.
Most Republicans have an
nounced that they would not
sign the discharge petition.
They maintain the petition is
unnecessary because the Rules
Committee hearings probably
would not last more than two
weeks in January and the
House would be able to con-
slider the civil rights measure
by the end Of that month.
Representative Lindsay, Re-
1ublican of New York, Judi
ciary Committee member who
originally favored an even
stronger bill than the commit
tee approved, told the House
today he would sign the petit
ton if only to make certain
the Rules Committee would

next month.
He protested, however
against what he called the
failure or refusal of the petit
tons Democratic sponsors tc
consult in advance with Re-
publicans about the plan to
file it.

Lodge Is Attractive
To Some Republicans

terpreted as leaving the door

/ reply. Mr.. Lodge, a former
Senator and United Nations
Ambassador, was a leader in
the effort making Gen. EiSen-
hover the 1852 nominee.
In Washington. Republican
National Committee officials
said there has been no request
to add Mr.. Lodge to the list
Of speakers for the January 90
fund raising dinners which
will introduce the 1864 pros
poets to party members via a
cloSed-circuit television link.
Mr.. Lodge is attractive to
some Republicans as an Eisen-
hover moderate with broad ex-
perience in foreign affairs. His
stands on domestic questions
except for his strong advocacy
Of civil rights - have been
blurred by an 1l-year absence
from Congress.
The Ambassador likely would
face strong opposition from
Southern Republicans, who
blame his 1860 remark about
putting a Negro in the cabinet
for the defeat Of the G.. o. p.
ticket in their States.
Mr.. Lodge also is unpopular
with some Republican Party
professionals, who found him
unwilling to adjust the rather
stately pace Of his campaign to
the demands Of local groups
during the 1860 race.
Gov. Scranton - Long a
dark-horse favorite in the talk
OF party professionals, his stock
has risen markedly in the past
two weeks. He is a moderate
like Mr.. Nixon but carries none
OF the scars Of battle that
mark the former Vice President.

indicated whether he will &C,

cy next month. But If he does
this strategist insisted, he car
still count on the initial sup
port of some 400 to 500 conven-
ton delegates. The votes of SIS
delegates are needed for nomi-
nation.
A party official. who pre-
viously supported the likelihood
and deSirability Of Senator
Goldvater'S nomination, said
the delegate count might be
correct but it did not measure
the damage 10 the Senator's
prospects.
A Viewpoint
You never would have heard
Of Barry as a presidential
candidate if it hadn't been
for his prospects Of carrying
the South" he said. To-day,
nobody can realistically expect
him to carry Texas or the ma
jority Of Southern States
against Lyndon johnson. If he
can't do that, he is no candi-
date for us"
Other influential Republi-
cans are less willing to aban-
don their previously high hopes
of making deep inroads in the
Democratic solid South. They
calculate Mr.. Johnson WILL
have to go so far on civil
rights and economic issues in
order to satisfy Negroes, labor
and Northern liberals that he
will strain his relations with
conservative Southerners.
Consensus on Others
Nonetheless, there is general
acknowledgement that Texas
and probably other Southern
States are now back in the
Democratic column to stay
and to that extent, the logic Of
a Goldwater nomination is d.
minished.
Here, in summary form is
the rough consensus on the
other possible contenderS:
Mr.. Nixon - He is helped,
everyone agrees. He no longer
faces the seemingly impossible
task of running against the
man who beat him in 1860. His
in foreign affairs is
greater than any other Repub-
leans, and, many calculate, he
might do well in debates
against President johnson.
Further, as q middle loft the
road figure, he could perhaps
exploit weaknesses in the john
son political poSition-North or
South, in urban or rural areas
better than someone as ideo-
logically identified as Senator
Goldwater or Gov. Rockefeller
However, his loss In Califor-
mia in the 1862 Governors race
and his subsequent outburst
against the press weigh heavily
In the minds Of many Republic
cans. Even some Of those who
now consider him the hkeliest
nominee for 1864 tag him as a
loser" against Mr.. johnson.
Mr.. LOdge-The Ambassador
reacted to the New York Times
story by saying. II have no in
tention of running for any
thing. I think the most useful
contribution I can make is to
continue my work here in Wet
Nam"
