prisoned.
Since gaining this freedom,
he has pledged to overthrow
DR.. Duvalier If, as is certain,
the Haitian dictator attempts
to perpetuate himself in office
for another six years next
Wednesday.
Mr.. Barbot and some of his
gunmen are believed to have
shot up a car taking DR.. Du-
valier's two young children to
school last week. The children
escaped unharmed but two of
their bodyguards we're slain.
Mrs. Barbot sought sanctu-
ary because, if she had fallen
into the hands of the Presi-
dent, DR.. Duvalier would Lave
had a club over her husband.
Americans here consider Mr..
Barbot the strongest, If not
the most civilized o. those who
seek the overthrow Of DR.. Du-
Waller.
He would be, it is considered
by informed sources, a pro-
United States leader Of Haiti.
Red Activity Seen
Those familiar with recent
Haitian politics say the signs
are increasing here that DR..
Duvalier is casting an eye
toward the Communist powers,
as did the neighborlng island
of Cuba under Fidel Castro.
The relatively small Commu-
mist Party in Haiti is becoming
increasingly active and it may
be that a vacuum will suck
DR.. Duvalier into military aid
or economic and trade arrange
ments with nations such as
Poland and Czechoslovakia.
After pouring sos million in
aid into Haiti. the United States
has cut DR.. Duvalier off. He,
in turn, ordered the American
military mission to leave Haiti.
The American reply last
week was to transfer many of
the military mission personnel
into the Military Advisory
Group which, by existing
agreement. must have a years
notice before leaving Haiti.
Ostensibly. the MAG is here
to watch over the disposition
and use Of the So million In
arms that were sent to DR..
Duvalier.
These arms are now either
in the holsters Of the Ton Ton

Red Space
Push Seen
BY the Associated Press

President Kennedy says he
expects the Soviet Union Ito
make additional spectacular
efforts" in space in the next
few months.
And this, he said yesterday,
will bring demands for an even
greater American space effort.
The President made the pre-
diction as he defended his $4.2
billion space budget for fiscal
1864 in an impromptu debate
with DR.. Gabriel Hauge, 9
banker who was former Presi-
dent EiSenhower's special as
sistant for economic affairs.
DR.. Hauge opened the debate
with Mr.. Kennedy during q
question period following the
Presidents address to the
trustees of the Committee for
Economic Development.
The banker wanted to know
why next years budget could
not have been held at the same
level as this years. The
President is calling for outlays
Of $98.8 billion, an increase Of
$4.5 billion.
Doctor, you should know
how easy it is for people to say
cut the budget Mr.. Kennedy
said, and added: II don't re-
gard this as an excessive
budget"
The President did not elabo-
rate on what he expects in the
way Of Soviet space spectacu-
lars, but he declared there is
more involved than just putting
a man on the moon. What is
at stake, he said, is eventual
mastery of space.
The President said it was a
major accomplishment to hold
projected spending on next
years civilian programs at a
level slightly below this years
indicated total.
With the population growing
by 3 million to 4 million a year,
Mr.. Kennedy said You can't
do it another year" because
that would merely shift great
burdens to the States.
DR.. Hauge. who is a director
and chairman Of the Finance
Committee Of the Manufac-
turers Trust Co., in New York,
stood by his table while Mr..
Kennedy spoke and, from time
to time, injected a comment.

Beaten, Says Comedian
Yesterday, Negro Comedian
Dick Gregory, who has been
showing up at racial hot spots
in the South lately, was bailed
out of jail here and promptly
claimed he was beaten by five
policemen while being held be-
hind bars.
At first he said at q news
conference that his right arm
was hurt. Later, when asked to
show the marks, he pulled up
his left sleeve.
Reminded that he said his
right arm was the one hurt, he
said he had a sore right shoul-
der. It appeared that his left
forearm may have been slightly
swollen but there was no
wound. He said he had been
beaten with billyclubs, a ham,
mer and a sawed-off pool stick.
Mr.. Gregory, who was jailed
on charges of parading without
a permit. said it was "a hours
before he got anything to eat.
"The food at first was like gar
bage but after that 1t tasted
like home cooking" he said.

Gregory had been beaten. The

Economic Influence
Since the white negotiating

do anything about dropping the

Mr.. King said that he wants
the white negotiatorS to rec
ommend to city officials that

but he said that the economic
power structure can sometimes
