The vote unanimous after Cuba walked out of the conference. The Cubans found the resolii- Jon "simply too tough to take," nformants said. Leading his delegation from the conference floor, Cuban Foreign Minister Raul Roa declared: "The People of Latin America go with me;" The formal vote on the tion represented a clearcut victory for the United States which had asked the foreign ministers to condemn efforts by Soviet Russia and Red China to extend their influence in the Western Hemisphere. The resolution hit indirectly at Cuba for permitting Soviet intervention.

It followed overwhelming defeat by the foreign ministers of the Organization of American States of resolution Jo condemn the United States what Cuba termed economic and military aggression. Venezuelan proposals to water down the impact of the San Jose Declaration also were rejected. Before pulling his delegation out of the meeting, Roa declared that the OAS endorsed a condemnation of communism in the hemisphere, his country would recognize it. He said Cuba will accept gratefully any offer from any country which will help it survive. He made clear that he meant the Soviet-Chinese Communist bloc.

"OUR COUNTRY is without a 'riend in the Americas," Roa declared. "Cuba has not found attention nor approval," he said. "I'm leav- ng. I go with my people to con- inue the fight." The Cuban delegation left the meeting shouting "Cuba Si, Yankee No." Reaching their nearby hotel they sang the Cuban National anthem and shouted 'The Fatherland or Death" and 'Viva Fidel Castro." Costa Rican police immediate? sealed off the streets leading the hotel to prevent demonstrations. Police details also were josted at strategic points throughout San Jose.

Diplomats said the resolution turned out far stronger than had been expected. Foreign Minister Enrique Ortuzar of Chile said the resolution rejects and foreign intervention in the Western Hemisphere and points out the opposition of the AmerN can countries to a foreign power seeking to exploit the political, economic, and social problems of Cuba to. establish Western beachhead, It does not, he said, mean tillty to the Cuban people.
