which couM be used to store military equipment. There is definite knowledge, he said, of considerable activity in the caves—of storing ammunition, ..supplies, vehicles and even planes. But Fitch took issue with Cuban refugee claims that the Russians hid strategic missiles in the caves instead of moving them out last fall. “While all such reports receive exhaustive analysis, it is our belief that the Soviets did in fact remove all strategic weapons systems that were in Cuba at the time of the quarantine,” Fitch said. Ih many cases, Fitch said, reports indicate the activity at the caves is being carried out entirely

by Russian personnel, with all Cubans barred from the areas. At his news conference Wednesday Kennedy said he was dissatisfied with the rate at which Soviet troops are being pulled out of Cuba. Kennedy said he did not have precise information on the rate of withdrawal, but he made it clear it was not fast enough to suit him. Before the Senate subcommittee, Fitch also said: —No nuclear warheads are believed to be in Cuba, although they could be need by some of the Russian weapons installed there. —Heavier, more modern Soviet equipment has been sent to Cuba during a year-long buildup. Included are ground-to-ground mls-

siles, anti-tank missiles, tanks, gups and personnel carriers. —The more sophisticated equipment has not yet been turned over to the Cubans. Communist Editor Confers With Pope VATICAN CITY (UPD—A professed atheist, Soviet Communist editor Alexei Adzhubei, met Pope John XXIII, head of the Roman Catholic church, today—and the atheist came away impressed and “very moved.” Adzhubei, son-in-law of Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev, first attended a mass audience in the Vatican’s throne room as “just another newsman.” Then, at its end, he was ushered into a private room for an 11-minute special audience, an unprecedented meeting between a member of a ruling Soviet leader’s family and the Roman pontiff. Adzhubei's wife, Rada, Khrushchev’s daughter, accompanied him to the history-making audiences. _ When the Pope finished his speech at the general audience, held to mark his acceptance of the Balzan Foundation’s peace prize, Adzhubei bowed his head in a reverential gesture as the pontiff bestowed his blessing on the throng. Then, when he was ushered into the papal library for the special audience, a high Vatican official said Adzhubei bowed deeply to the Pope. Mrs. Adzhubei covered her head with a gold-lined black scarf, ■as is protocol for women at a papal audience. The Russian couple was alone in the library with the Pope except for a Russian-speaking priest who acted as an interpreter. The audience was another step in the Kremlin-Vatican rapprochement of recent months, which has led to speculation of a possible further easing of tensions, establishment of some kind of diplomatic relations and even a meeting between the Pope and Khrushchev. Adzhubei, who listened soberly as the Pope addressed the mass audience in French about the church’s “neutrality” and work for peace, said: “It was a fine speech, I was very impressed.”

20 Years Ago Today March 7, 1943 was Sunday and no paper was published. Modern Etiquette By Roberta Lee Q. I have a very good friend who has several little faults I should like to correct — some of them in her grammar and some in her manners. How do I properly go about this? A. You’d do better to overlook these so-called “faults,” and instead concentrate more on the good qualities that made this person such a “very, good friend.” It could very well be, too, that this friend is overlooking “several little faults” in YOU. We all have them, you know. Q. Is there a tactful or diplomatic way to curb a friend who persistenty breaks into the middle of one of your sentences to relate another story? A. Self-control is called for here. Os course, on occasion you have a perfect right to say, "Please, may I finish what I was saying?" Q. Is it all right for a divorcee to have a maid-of-honor and three bridesmaids at her second wedfling? • A. This is not considered in good taste. She should have no more than one attendant at her second marriage.

Gov.Faubus Makes Charge On Government LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (UPI) — Gov. Orval Faubus accused the federal government Wednesday of secretly recruiting Arkansas National Guard pilots of the 1961 Cuban invasion and then “betraying” them. Some of them flew in combat and one Air Guard plane was shot down, Faubus said. Brig. Gen. Frank Bailey, chief of staff of the Arkansas Air National Guard, said he did not know what Faubus was talking about. But he added the Arkansas Air Guard “did not have any planes involved.” The Defense Department in Washington declined, commentBailey said, however, that Faubus may have some information he does not have. He said he did not want to put himself in the position of either denying or confirming what the governor said. Knew Pitot* Involved Faubus did not say who recruited the pilots. He said he knew at the time of the invasion that Arkansas Air Guard pilots were involved, but say nothing at patriotic' Americans were led to believe that this .enterprise had not only the blessing but the full support of the federal government,” he said. “We all know what happened at the Bay of Pigs. “This whole thing is a disgrace in American history. They tried to recruit same men in the north and couldn’t do it, so they came

down to the south where they still have some patriotism and got some volunteers among the National Guard.” He said there were a dozen Arkansas guard pilots based in Nicaragua, some of whom flew combat missions in the invasion. Sworn To Secreey He said the pilots were sworn to secrecy, lest their part in the action jeopardize their military careers. If the Kennedy administration did not intend to support the invasion, Faubus said, the pilots “shouldn't have been sent in.” “The guardsmen didn’t go for money or as soldiers of fortune,” Faubus said. “They thought they were going in the national interest.” Body Os Missing Man Is Recovered LIBERTY, Ind.
