Castro’s Agrarian Reformers Ride
Roughshod Over Law; ‘’Just Move In’
By HAROLD K. MILKS
HAVANA, UPi — The takeover
of Cuban and foreign-owned
ranch and farm property by
Fidel Castro’s forces appears
more and more to be following
only one law — the law of force.
Although the sweeping agra
rian reform law adopted by Cas
tro’s revolutionary cabinet last
May gives his representatives
power to seize big estates, the
government’s agents are taking
over buildings, equipment and
livestock as well.
Estimates of the amount of land
i seized now reach into the millions
of acres. Most of it so far is in
cattle-rich Camaguey and Oriente
Provinces, and in Pinar Del Rio,
where most of Cuba’s fine tobacco
Production Halted on
Chrysler’s Valiant
DETROIT, UP — The national
steel shortage cuts further into
U. S. auto output today with the
halting of production of Chrys
ler’s new smaller car, Valiant.
The - company said approxi
mately 2,700 workers are to be
laid off at the Valiant assembly
plant in suburban Hamtrack
tonight.
The latest furloughs will bring
to 10,580 the total Chrysler lay
offs since the recent steel strike
began.
Caught Napping . . .
NEWARK, N. J., UP — Joseph
] Matthews, 43, picked an odd
! place to take a nap Monday
— between the rails of a track
inside the Pennsylvania Rail
roads Waverly yards.
A 25-ton yard engine passed
over him.
Matthews suffered a scratch
on his cheek. He was arrested and
charged with trespassing on rail
road property.
Engineer G. T. O’Toole told
police he thought the sleeping
man was “a bundle of rags.”
is grown. Most sugar estates are
being left alone for the present so
as not to reduce the next harvest.
Cuban lEfwyers representing the
landowners say appeals to points
of law with agents of the govern
ment’s powerful Institute of Agra
rian Reform (INRA) frequently
bring the reply “What law? We
are the law!”
Files of the United States Em
bassy are rapidly filling with re
ports of cases in which Castro
agents — usually bearded mili
tary offices backed by 'squads of
armed soldiers — moved in and
seized equipment, cattle and
buildings.
The agrarian reform law pro
vides for expropriation of land
for distribution among the land
less but contains no provision for
seizure of agricultural machinery,
other equipment or livestock.
“So-called Agrarian Institute ,
delegates pay no attention to this
law when they ‘intervene’ in prop
erties,” said one Cuban lawyer.
“They just take over and all our
efforts to find out under what
decree or law they are acting
are futile.”
