(Star Photo) Havana (AT) Fidel Castro's supporters tied up Cuba j-esterday with a one-hour general strike called to support demands that he come back 'and be premier. The bearded revolutionary said he'd withhold his decision until Sunday, when an even bigger show of strength is planned. Yesterday's work stoppage, called by the million-member Cuban Workers Confederation (CTC), was part of a great buildup for Castro. He abandoned the top cabinet post a week ago to attack and expel Manuel Urrutia as president The campaign comes to a climax Sunday, when Castro's 26th of July movement celebrates the sixth anniversary of the start of the revolution against the now-fallen dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista. A huge rally is scheduled in downtown Havana.

"WE'LL LET the people decide on the 26th of July," Castro told a rally. There was little doubt the people at Sunday's rally will "decide" Castro should return to office. His supporters have it elaborately organized, from bus schedules to box lunches. The obstensible purpose of Sunday's rally is to demonstrate support for Castro's pet revolutionary program, agrarian reform. He has called for half a million peasants "Cam-pesinos" and about 150,000 have already arrived for what now is being called a "vote of confidence." Thousands poured into the streets of Havana yesterday to demonstrate for Castro.

Plans for construction of a reflective pool in Holliday Park to house three famous statues have been delayed because of an artist's insistence that the pool must contain a giant spray splashing a 40-minute message in Morse code. This was revealed yesterday as the Board of Park Commissioners wrestled with proposed plans for locating the five-foot stone figures carved by the late Karl Theodore Francis Bitter. THE FIGURES of Caucasian, Negroid and Mongoloid workers, valued at were presented to the city last year by the Western Electric Company. Elmer E. Taflinger, world-famed Indianapolis artist, told the park board the 100-foot spray in Morse code is a "definite must" if the proper setting is to be provided for the 51 -vear-old fieures.

For 50 years, the statues held up the entrance to the St. Paul Building at New York City. THE FIGURES were given to the city when the building was demolished to make way for a new Western Electric office building. In other action, the park board approved plans for construction of a 192-room hotel at the northeast corner of 38th and Meridian streets. Park board approval was necessary because the site lies within 500 feet of board-controlled property.

A petition to rezone the property for the hotel will be heard by the Metopolitan Plan Commission Aug. 2f.

Taflinger also proposed a second 75-foot spray with a continuous stream for the pool. "We can cut down every place else, but if we are to have something distinctive something different from anything In the world we must have these two jet sprays," Taflinger said. Taflinger has been assigned by the park board to design the Holliday Park setting.

ESTIMATED COSTS of Taf-linger's plans totaled nearly $180,000, which prompted board members to say "we may have to dispense with the Morse code." The plumbing estimates for the pool and sprays came to $39,500, Including $8,000 for special equipment to flash the water messages.
