RedsHeldCurbingCuba “ToWin S it Parl “To Win Summit Farley : By JOHN M. HIGHTOWER . Associated Press Staff Writer - Soviet Premier Khrushchev may be putting a loose halter -on- Prime Minister Castro of Cuba because Mr. Khrushchey _wants to promote chances for a summit conference with Presi dent-eléct Kennedy next spring. Sut there are \flgoubtedly other reasons for his reported seffort to slow down Mr. Castro’s anti-American campaign. And one of the rqasons given con siderable importance here is that Mr. Khrushchev does not want to be called upon to carry out his threat to back up Cuba ina‘'war with the United States. He ‘wants Mr, Castro to stop short ¢f crowding thé United States to the danger peint. <. State Department experts ‘were interesteq yesterday in the coincidence of reports from “Havana that Mr. Xhrushchev had now advised Mr. Castro to go more slowly in his conflict .with the United States and re ports from Moscow that the ‘Communist suramit conference there had finally come to an end. Conference Extended . Originally called in connec tion with Russia’s national an niversary celebration earlier this month, the conference ran ‘on several days longer than was expected. Western experts said this probably meant Mr. Khrushchev and his Red Chi nese critics were having trouble working out _their row over peaceful coexistence. This implies that Mr. Khru shchev is still fighting hard for & softer line than the Red Chi nese favor. Apart from the long-range war or peace issue, however, is the question of Soviet-Red Chi nese policy at the outset of the new administration. Friendly Attitude Held . Again the experts here believe that Mr. Khrushchev is doing everything he can to maintain a reasonably friendly and hope ful attitude toward Senator Kennedy. They say this does not mean that he expects real settlements or is prepared to make concessions to the West on major issues like disarma ment and Germany. ~ More likely it means that he wants to recover the use of the summit conference idea as a lever to force the West into negotiations and, he may hope, into eventual concessions. Mr. Khrushchev lost this advantage last May when following up the U-2 spy plane incident, he re fused to negotiate with Presi dent Eisenhower and broke up the summit conference in Paris. Since Senator Kennedy’s elec tion he has made clear that he wants to establish a different relationship with the incoming United States leader. : Mr. Khrushchev’'s need to balance several elements of hos tility and apparent friendliness OPEN EVENINGS in-ALEXANDRIA ond BETHESDA T ..

Mr. Khrushchev tried to get off the hook several weeks ago by saying that his rocket threat was really just’“symbolic™ of Soviet support for Mr. Castro. Cuba, however, is being built into an immensely valuable base for Communist exploita tion of revolutionary move ments which are usually boil ing somewhere in the Caribbean area and frequently explode linl:o violence. | | Direct Conflict Avoided In manipulating his drive for ¢ommunism in the Congo, which would give him a base in the heart of Africa, Mr. Khru shechev also has to be careful that he does not become in |volved in direct military con |flict with the Western powers lor alienate the United States. | Mr. Khrushchev evidently | feels that time is working on |the side of communism in deal ‘ing with the underdeveloped areas of the world. He has put lconslderably more urgency into lcoming to grips with problems in the heart of Europe, notably {the problems of the peace set {tlement and an East-West agreement on the future of Berlin. In these cases, he has told Western leaders he wants decisions in 1961 and he wants negotiations under way by April—a little more than two monthts after Senator Kennedy takes office January 20. Mr. Khrushchev probably considers all these elements re lated in his pattern of power politics which may also extend to the Far East and embrace {Red China’s threats against (the Formosa area and South east Asia. In this sensé, the ‘Castro regime in Cuba must be seen by Mr. Khrushchev as a pawn in the power negotiations he would like to have with ‘Senator Kennedy. CAR-TICKETING PATROLMAN TAKES THE BAIT PHILADELPHIA (AP) . Patrolman William Sturges was undaunted by jeering factory workers as he pro- | ceeded down a long line of illegally parked cars, me- | thodically placing a ticket | on each windshield, But then an employe of | the Electric Storage Bat- | tery Co. plant leaned out | the window and shouted: “There’s an emergency! A man’s been caught in | the conveyor belt!” This stopped Patrolman Sturges in his tracks. Run ning to a nearby call box, he summoned help. Two police cars, two fire engines and a rescue truck rushed to the plant, tying up eve ning rush-hour trafic on the way. Inside, Patrolman Stur ges and the others couldn’t find any man caught in a conveyor belt. In fact, they found nothing but calm and order—and an occasional smirk—just as if the whole thing had been a joke. Slightly miffed, Patrol man Sturges went back outside to finish ticketing the string of parked cars but—what else?—they all had been moved. D = ] 5,000 in Glasgow Protest Polaris GLASGOW, Scotland, Nov. 19 (AP) .—More than 5,000 demon strators paraded through the‘ streets of Glasgow today in a mile-long protest march against the setting up of a United States Polaris subma rine base on the River Clyde. Three Laborite members' of Parliament Emrys Hughes, John Rankin and John Forman —lled the march. At an open-air protest meet ing, the Rev. Clifford Macquire ‘\ot Trinity Congregational Church moved a resolution of |protest which was passed unanimously. There was a demonstration also in London. About 1,000 persons marched from a meet ing of “The London Peace Campaign” in Trafalgar Square to hand a letter of pro test to the United States Em bassy. The letter expressed “horror ‘and indignation at the threat to the peace of the world” from ‘American bases in Britain. It added that the British people, lhowever, fell the “warmest friendship and goodwill to the people of America.” The demonstrators, many of them youths, carried banners reading “Yankees take your rockets home” and “Close the U. 8. bases.” ; R | bontuni { s’.‘; 4 S R { ¥ ¥ s % 3 N 4 o - ) \ TRV L SPECIAL PURCHASE :-v . i % 5“?

Case of New Jersey, said yes terday he wants no part of a coalition “to block progressive legislation in the coming ses sion” of Congerss. Senator Case, who rolled up a 335,000-vote margin to win another six-year Senate term, discounted speculation that the 36 Republican Senators will join with Southern Democrats on many issues. Such specula tion has centered on some of the proposals advanced by President-elect Kennedy. “This is certainly not my view of what the role of the Republican minority will be,” Senator Case said in a state ment. “Speaking for myself, and I am sure lam not alone \ CAVANAGH Fpe N L g T The finishing touch of a well-dressed man is his y © hat.

In winning re-election, Sen ator Case bucked the trend in his State, which Senator Ken nedy carried by almost 22,000 votes. So did Senator Salton stall in winning by 306,000 votes. Senator Kennedy carried Massachusetts—his home State —by_ 511,000. Senator Cooper ran ahead of the G, O. P. na tional ticket in Kentucky, win. ning by 195,000 votes to the margin of 78,000 it gave to Vice President Nixon. Senator Case said that like himself Senator Saltonstall and Cooper “are men who re ject the view that the problems facing -our Nation are non existent or can be solved en tirely at a local level.” “The Republican Party can make a vital contribution by emphasizing individual freedom and, at the same time, working effectively toward social prog ress,” Senator Case said, “We should not block merely for the sake of obstructionism. “The problems facing the country are real. Solutions must be found and we should lend our support to efforts to find sound and effective ones.” A i L MR T S o i R Rolling Aids Cleaner WILMINGTON, Del—A de tergent bilge cleaner that works in fresh or salt water and does its job through the rolling action of the boat has been developed for pleasure boaters by a Wilmington com pany.
