Castro Is Accused
Of Forcing Break
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (AP)
—The United States today ac,
cused Cuban Prime Minister ..Fi-
del Castro of deliberately forcing
the break of U.S.-Cuban relations
by a strategy of harassmanet.
U.S. Ambassador James J.
Wadsworth told the U.N. Secur-
ity Council the United States had
worked hard to prement “the lead-
ers of Cuba from choking off our
friendly relations but that is what
they seemed determined to do."
Wadsworth spoke shortly after
the council met to consider Cuban
charges that the United States is
planning an invasion of Cuba. He
began by referring to Tuesday
night's decision by the White
House to break diplomatic rela-
tions with the Castro regiipe.
Before the meeting Cuban For-
eign Minister Raul Roa told a re-
porter that the U.S. decision had
proved the Cuban charges. Com
menting on the break of relations,
he said: “It proves my charges.

Turning to the Cuban complaint,
Wadsworth said the United States
would not oppose council debate
even though the complaint is
totally fraudulent."

The measure again will be of-
fered by Sen. Paul Douglas, D.-
111., and will be similar to another
bill of his in the last Congress,
passed by the Senate, watered
down by the House, and vetoed
by President Eisenhower.
Among other measures on the
munist camp have mounted over
the months.
The bearded Cuban leader re-
acted to Eisenhower's statement
"by saying, "We are alert.” He
called his Cabinet into emergency
session, then sent a note to the
U.S. Embassy guaranteeing safety
of all remaining Americans.
A State Department spokesman
said the break did not affect the
big U.S. naval base atvGuantana-
mo Bay in Cuba. Castro has made
threats against the base. ,The
United States says it holds an un-
breakable, no-time-limit lease on
the installation.
Eisenhower served notice last
Nov. 1 that the United States “will
take whatever steps may be ap-
propriate to defend the base."
President-elect John F. Kennedy
declined comment on the diplo-
matic break. He was given ad-
vance word on the president'*
action.
(The New York Times said to-
day that Secretary of State
Christian A. Herter asked Dean
Rusk, Kennedy’s choice for secre-
the incoming Democratic admin-
istration wished to associate it-
self with the break.
(Rusk replied after consultation
with Kennedy that in the absence
of complete information on all the
relevant factors the new adminis-
tration did not feel that it could
participate in the decision, «

The end to U.S.-Cuban relations
had been long expected. Yet it
was dramatic. The break cut
Washington-Havana ties for the
first time since America’s fight-

Spain at the turn of the century.
The last straw snapping Wash-
ington’s forebearance policy was
Castro’s demand, delivered to the
UjS. Embassy in Havana early
Tuesday that all but 11 of the
U.S. diplomats get out of Cuba
within 48 hours.
American authorities from El-
senhower down saw this as a cal-
culated, Insult. They figured the
U.S. Embassy could hardly oper-

the number of guards alone need-

there was no explosion.
Baker’s report was described as

crash, all of whom acted jointly.
