The Senate, debating for only two hours .. before reaching a vote on presidential autho . rity ._ to call up the reserves. And then, the vote• unanimous .. seventy-six to none. Not a single dissent from the principle - that the President u••• should be able to put one-hundred-and-fifty thousand or the reserves 1n uniform. ,,rr - he thinks .Met the ) · f?,, international situation 1s critical enough, for such a move. CUBA President Kennedy's news conference was dominated -- by Cuba. We already knew the Adm1n1strat1on stand - on Castro's police state. But there 1s no substitute for getting it - straight from the President himself. And Mr. Kennedy gave it to us straight. Emphasizing, that we will take d.irect action against Cuba - should the tab island ever become a Soviet base. Out "watt and see" policy - in effect, only aa long as Cuba 1a no threat to our security. President Kennedy made it clear that the Soviet build-up in Cuba la the result of Castro's mis-management. The-•••• bearded Dictator, pushing ~1• country into - a crippling econ011ic crisis. Then, asklng his comrades 1n Moscow to bail him out. This, the p~imary reason for the Russians 1n Cuba -- not the establishment of a Soviet base. That's why President Kemedy things it ls a mistake -- when some Americans demand a unilateral invasion or Cuba. Because, they are merely saying -- what Khruchshev and Castro are CUBA - 2 saying, namely that an American attack on Cuba 1s imminent. Suppose action against Castro ever becomes necessary? President KeMedy emphasized that should the time come we can -- and will, get rid of him. BRITIDH FOLLOW BERLIN The British Army in West Berlin today read a lesaon - to the Soviet Army. Subject - travel to and from the Russian War Memorial in the British Sector. Since the stoning of their buses by angry West Berliners - the Russians have been using armoured cars to transport their ceremonial guard. Armoured cars, a rather martial display - that Her Majesty's commanding General doesn't like;• ,1-.,.--'pecially - now that the i,t■,11 rioting has ceased. ll1l1&.The Russians refused to accept a written warning - that theJ 1 d better go back to buses. And so the British gave them a lectlll'e - instead. The Soviet guard, stopped at the Soviet monument today - while a British Colonel read them a prepared statement. Ho Soviet armoured cars in the British sector ot West Berlin - after tomorrow. It's now an "either-or" proposition - for the Russians. Either trav , el in buses - or no access to their war memorial. ~ SPY FOLLOW BRITISH While the British Army is acting tough in Berlin - the British Admiralty is on the defensive in London. The Admirals, loudly criticized by the Briti&h pre . es - because of another spy scandal. This one - less than a year after a whole espionage ring was crqcked. Five spies, going to Jail - for stealing information from the Admiralty, and pas · sing it on to the Russians. The individual accused this time - mild-mannered William Vassall, who doesn't look a bit like a sinister Red agent. Still, Scotland Yard accuses him of taking secret file , s - from the Admiralty. The old sea dogs ot the Royal Navy, sailing through ,,. - some rather stormy political , s . eas. The First Lord of the Admiralty, Lord Carrington - said to be a trifle seasick. COlll10NWEALTH FOLLOW SPY And the British government had it's troubles - today. In ract, 1t had - a split peraonal1 . ty. At Admiralty House, a tense cabinet meeting- but the Prime Minister wasn't there. Harold MacMillan, over at Marlborough House - talking to Prime Ministers from the Commonwealth. Leaving Bab Butler - to preside over the cabinet. MacMillan .,.,.tler, 411911Ml9Cl.-tn~ a single purpose. What to do about COllllonwealth opposition - to British entry tnto the Comon Market. Butler and the cabinet, trylrg to come up with a formula - that would •ke the C011111on Market more palatable to the former Brltiah nplre. MacMillan, struggling to do the same - in tace-to-tace talks with the men from overseas. 'nle latest 1a - that the Prillle Mlnlater seems to be succeeding. ESTES At least one official of the Agriculture Department has been vindicated - despite his comection with the Bates case. Carl Miller, Chief of the Warehouse Branch of the Department - was shifted to another Job in May. Now, Secretary Freeman reveals - that Miller is being moved back where he was. A thorough check indicating - that he did nothing wrong in his handling of Billie Sol Estes. ond. 0 y low"' But / t ~ r a - t ~ ' Mil / ,,. / ~eatt•tlng the aa 1 / / - / ment, ,..,ned by a Texaa(acco~t - au eqUIIIEly 7 ORCHESTRA The Chicago Symphony Orchestra 1s in the same predicament tonight - that the Met was la- last year. ~ ~ T h e New York Opera season almost had to be cancelled - because of a wage dispute with the mustb1ana union.
