PALM BEACH (P) — President
Kennedy and his top military
advisers doffed their coats on a
sunny patio today for a far-rang-
ing discussion of defense strategy’
and military spending.
Secretary of Defense Robert S.
McNamara, undersecretary Ros-
well L. Gilpatric and the Joint
Chiefs of Staff met at the holiday
White House.
Gen. Curtis E. LeMay, Air
Force chief of staff, made an
eleventh hour stand against cut-
ting off development funds for the
controversial Skybolt missile.
McNamara said in advance of
the conference that it "certainly
will be our recommendation" to
scrap Sky bolt, which Kennedy
has pictured as obsolete, and per-
haps unreliable, in an age of
more powerful nuclear-tipped
rockets.
The stated purpose of the mili-
tary meetng was to provide Ken-
nedy with a year-end review of
the defense situation and to put
finishing touches on the $51 bil-
lion defense budget.
The session was delayed half
an hour while Kennedy met with
Israeli Foreign Minister Golda
Meir, en route home after service
at the United Nations.
Kennedy, who arrived Friday at
an oceanfront home borrowed
from financier C. Michael Paul,
is holding a continuing series of
de ci sion-making conferences in
advance of the reconvening of
Congress Jan. 9.
The subject Wednesday was the
1963 tax cut proposals’.
For more than two hours, the
President met with Secretary of
the Treasury Douglas Dillon and
other key financial advisers on
the specifics of the tax package.
The broad outlines of the plan,
envisioning lower tax rates early
next year for both individuals and
corporations, were approved sev-
eral weeks ago. At Wednesday's
session Kennedy got into many
of the details and gave general
approval to the Treasury’s plans.
However, several of the conferees
reported that much work remains
to be done.

Minister Fidel Castro for the in-

Seasickness, nervousness and
a mild outbreak of measles a-
board the ship failed to dampen
the enthusiasm of the refugees
who gave up everything they
owned to escape Castro commu-
nism and join loved ones in the
United States.
Only about 200 observers saw
the freighter come in. The port
was closed to all but newsmen
and authorized officials. A big
sign said “Welcome” in English.
The Red Cross reported nine
cases of contagious disease
abard. Three ambulances were
on the dock to pick up 11 stretch-
er cases.
An American flag flew from
the stem of the freighter. One
tug went out to help her in to
the dock.
Joe McGowan, Associated Press
writer representing American
news agencies on the African Pi-
lot, said many passengers re-
mained awake through the night,
too nervous and excited to sleep,
on the trip.
“I have a bed,” said one eld-
erly refugee, “but who could
sleep at a time like this?”
A tingle of excitement swept
through the ship when the en-
gines started Wednesday night in
Havana harbor. As the ship mov-
ed out, the refugees sang the
Cuban national anthem.
Shortly after the departure,
four children came down with
measles, three in a single family.
The two families were isolated.
Dr. Banning Lary of Miami
said there was little cause for
concern and no reason for a
quarantine of the* ship.

RAWALPINDI, Pakistan ®
— Indian and Pakistani minis-
ters opeined meigotiations over
Kashmir today under a new
cloud of mistrust blown up by
announcement of a Pakistan-Red
China agreement on their share
of the border of the disputed
state.
A vaguely worded Pakistani-
Red Chinese announcement said
Wednesday night an agreement
in principle had been reached on
the 200 miles of border between
Red China’s Sinkiang Province
and that part of Kashmir on Pak-
istan’s side of the U.N .cease-
fire line dividing the Himalayan
state.
In New Delhi, the announce-
«ent aroused surprise that was
EgMertain to turn into anger. There
“was no immediate public reac-
tion from the Indian negotiator's
here, however.
Pakistan President Mohammed
Ayub Khan called in the Pakis-
tain and Indian delegation lead-
ers soon after they sat down at
the conference table. A reliable
source said Ayub wanted to clari-
ly the agreement with Red China.
It was understood he appealed
for a settlement on Kashmir,
over which India and Pakistan
have feuded since 1947, “in the
interests of friendly relations be-
tween the two countries and the
security of the subcontinent.”
It was because of Red China's
thrust deep into India’s Himalay-
an borderlands two months ago
that India and Pakistan agreed,
at the urging of Britain and the
United States, to renew attempts
to negotiate over Kashmir.
He refused to discuss the exact
nature of the operation .Earlier
