GENERAL SAYS S

OKLAHOMA CITY, Mar.

ARMS FERRYlNG DEAL
Virginian Rejected Offer

Officials would not answer
further questions, but other
sources confirmed that repre-
sentatives Of the CIA ap-
preached a number Of National
Guard flyers in Virginia, Ar
kansas and Alabama, seeking
out men who had experience
with B-26 light bombers.
The Guardsmen not only
were well up on flying tech
niques but were known to be
responsible individuals who
could keep Government secrets.
They did, Of course, keep them
until Gov. Faubus let the cat
out Of the bag.
1t seems clear that the flyers
were not hired for combat but
largely for training. Under the
original Bay of Pigs plan the
Cuban aircraft would have
been knocked out before the
landing, so American air cover
would have been unnecessary.

Ted Kennedy
Sends Apology
To Photographer

CHELSEA, VT, Mar. 8 (AP)
Former Gov. F. Ray Keyser,
jr., said today Senator Edward
M. (Ted) Kennedy, brother of
the President, has apologized
for an incident at Stowe in
which he allegedly damaged a
photographers camera.
Mr.. Keyser, attorney for the
photographer. Philip Lawson,
81, Of st. Adams, said Senator
Kennedy wrote in part:
MY wife and I are truly
sorry about last months mis-
understanding and hope that
this letter will serve as a sim
cere apology, and for any Diff
ficulty it may have caused"
Mr.. Lawson had charged that
Senator Kennedy damaged his
camera and a flash reflector
when he became irritated be-
cause an imposed picture was
taken.
In asking Senator Kennedy
for an apology, Mr.. Keyser
said he wrote that neither the
young photographer nor his
newspaper, the Vermont Sun
day News, desire to cause you
any undue embarrassment
through legal action, and we
are therefore writing you at
this time requesting an apol-
ogy."

Scored by Mansfield

Dirksen Replies
In q brief reply to the DEM
ocratic leader, Senate Repub-
lican Leader Dirksen insisted
that he had been most cir
cumspect" in referring recently
to the deaths of the four fly
ers. He said he had made nc
attempt to pre-judge anything
but thought all the facts should
be placed on the record.
Senator Dirksen said he did
not ask anyone for confirma-
ton Of the story at the time
and was not a party to any
conference at the White House
where this may have been dis
cusSed.
He also reminded Democrats
1t was Attorney General Robert
Kennedy who revived discus
sion of the Bay Of Pigs inva-
sion earlier this year in an
interview during which he said
United States air cover was not
promised the anti-Castro in
yaders.

Further Ransom
Flown to Cubu

MIAMI, Fla, Mar. 8 (AP)-
A Pan American Airways plane
left for Cuba today, loaded
with more goods to pay off the
Fidel Castro government for
releasing Cuban invasion pris-
oners. The DC-6B was due
back in the afternoon, prob
ably with another load of
Cuban-American refugees. The
craft contained 14,40O pounds
Of cargo.
The flight to Havana was
over the protest of Douglas r.
voorhees,, who failed yesterday
to obtain an injunction. United
States District Judge Emett C.
Choate said that, although he
did not believe presidential
permission was sufficient au-
thority for the ransom ar
rangement, his court lacked

Invaders Own
Planes Barred

CHICAGO. Mar. 8 (AP).-
Albert c. Persons. who identi-
fies himself as one of 18 Amer
leans hired for aerial duty in
the 1861 invasion of Cuba, said
President Kennedy denied the
invaders the support of their
own aircraft.
Mr.. Persons, AZ, managing
editor Of the weekly Birming-
ham (Ala.) Examiner, set forth
his views in the Chicago Amer
ican.
I'm the original plan there
was no provision for United
States military air support" he
write. "The group Of Is ex-
perienced airmen was to have
provided air support for the
invasion troops. B-26s were
scheduled for attacks against
vital targets prior to the land
ings and for air support mis-
sions for the troops after the
landing.
1T was not United States
air support the President with
held. The President denied the
invasion forces the support of
their own aircraft during this
crucial period"
Mr.. Persons wrote that the
first air strike against Cuban
targets on April IS, 1861, was
followed by a period Of mac
tivity.

first strike on Saturday morn

Senate Democratic Leader
Mansfield today said congress
sional critics Of President Ken
nedy's handling Of the Cuban
situation have engaged in
reckless inflaming Of public
emotions.
He was referring primarily
to Republican inquiries into the
Inflated Bay of Pigs invasion
in April, 1861.
As a part Of these inquiries,
Republicans recently called at
tention to the death of -four
American flyers who were en-
ployed by the anti Castro
forces at the Bay Of Pigs. Sen.
ator Mansfield last week con-
firmed this report.
But today he told the Senate
1t was not q new disclosure he
had ferreted out Of the White
House. He said he got his in
formation from a newspaper
story published on May 5, 1851.
under a Birmingham (Ala)
dateline, disclosing the same
information that Republicans
have recently heralded as a
new revelation.
Critics Chided
The Democratic Leader sug-
gested that "those who have a
penchant for playing CIA chief
or Secretary Of State" should
know what they are about. He
suggested that lawmakers who
want to play sletth" should
try TO find out what is wrong
with the economy and get on
with their legislative business.
Senator Mansfield said that
"h owever discouraging this
political prowling over the dead
may be-" he has no objection

providing such air cover.
Saying President Kennedy
has been subjected to some
unfair criticism on the in
vasion, he added:
II think he was wrong in
another respect. / think he was
wrong, once we committed our
power, in not seeing 1t through
and finishing the job. -.
"And when the suggestion is
made that President Eisen-
hover may or may not have
planned air cover, I would only
suggest this: I cannot imagine
the general, who planned the
greatest invasion in history, the
invasion of Normandy, allow
ing those 1,500 brave Cubans
to go in the Bay of Pigs there
without having first destroyed
the enemy air power or pro-
viding air cover"

an end to foreign aid to ma

The stranger offered $2,25O

The offer came in February,

who asked to remain unidenti-
ied, recalled today. However,
ne said he had no doubt the un-
identified caller was recruiting
for a United States Govern
ment agency. probably the CIA.
Secrecy Asked
What the man did say was
that B-26 pilots were needed
10 ferry arms for a period of
roughly so days.
Another point he made was
to keep the whole thing secret,
please.
The Virginian kept his coun-
sci until this week, when Ar
kansas Gov. Orval e. Faubus
told q news conference that
1925 Arkansas Air Guardsmen
were recruited to help in the
invasion.
Shortly after the April. 1861,

B-26s during World War II.
Also, like several other Guard
outfits, the squadron used the
same light bomber for awhile
after World War II.
However. according to reli-
able sources, none Of the Vir-
ginians accepted the high-pay-
ing volunteer" jobs. It would
have paid 5000 monthly in ex-
penses, besides the $2,250 base,
the recruiter told the pilots.
Further South. however, the
close-mouthed recruiters ap-
parently struck pay dirt.
In addition to Gov. Faubus'
statement, President Kennedy,
in his press conference on
Wednesday, confirmed that
four Birmingham (Ala.) flyers
lost their lives in the Cuban
invasion and were serving
their country" at the time. One
Of the four has been identified
as a major in the Alabama Air
National Guard.
A Pentagon source added to-
day there were even more
American airmen involved in
the attempted invasion. But he
refused to say what the total
number was, although he con-
firmed the Defense Department
had such a figure.
Denial by Pentag0n
An official Pentagon spokes-
man said today that with one
possible exception, mo member
Of the National Guard from
any State took part in any
combat operation connected
with the Bay of Pigs in or out
