| First U.S. Prisoners
Repatriated from Cuba
Arrive in Miami, Fla.
MIAMI, Fla. UR — The first
; American prisoners repatriated
from Fidel Castro’s Cuba, includ
ing the last U. S. newsmen there,
arrived in Miami Friday night—
some glad, some fighting mad and
some fearfully silent.
Fifty-two Americans were in
the group of 101 passengers who
arrived aboard a chartered air
liner. Also aboard were 46 re
fugees.
The Americans included four
newsmen, five Catholic priests
and three nuns.
There were cheers and applause
when many of the repatriates
walked from the plane. Some re
fused to identify themselves, ex
plaining they feared for the
safety of relatives still in Cuba
or property on the island.
Among those returning were
Harold K. Milks, chief of Asso
ciated Press Caribbean Services,
and Robert Berrellez, Associated
Press correspondent in Havana,
Ruby Hart Phillips, New York
correspondent, and Martin P.
Houseman of United Press Inter
national.
“I came out with a small zipper
bag containing all the possessions
remaining to me from a three
bedroom apartment in Havana,”
Milks said.
“Everything else, clothes, fur
niture, dishes and prized pos
session gathered in more than 20
years as a foreign correspondent
I were left behind in the hands of
| Castro’s militiamen.”
Rep. Pelly Opposes
Proposed Extension
Of the Alaska Railroad
WASHINGTON UP) — Rep.
Thomas Pelly, (R-Wn.», said Sat
urday he opposes the proposed
extension of the Alask Railroad
through Canada to provide a new
transport link to the other states.
Additional highways to tide
water would be much better, Pelly
said, and would not invlove vast
spending of federal funds.”
Pelly, in a statement, questioned
whether rail freight rates could
be as low as truck-water rates.
“What are needed to bring down
transportation costs and help
Alaskans he said, “are more north
bound cargoes to produce a better
balanced traffic flow.”
Pelly’s statement also called for
a shakeup in the Central Intelli
gence Agency “including Alan
Dulles and the entire top echelon,
not just one or two persons.”
“The Kennedy Administration
has been getting consistently bad
advice, on Laos as well as Cuba,” j
the Seattle Republican said. “Here
again the past week in the South
Korean situation, we are caught
backing the wrong horse.”
The Premier of Japan, Hayato
Ikeda, may be the world’s clean
est politician. He takes two hot
baths daily.
