STILL CANNOT WEIGH HIM UP From Aiistair New York', April 26. Fidel Castro finally left the United Stales to-day on a plane from Boston to Montreal, leaving behind him armies of new admirers, a corps of puzzled reporters, a hugely relieved New York police force, and one amateur bomb manufacturer now confined to the psychiatric ward of BcUevue Hospital. The estimates vary on the number of police required to keep him intact, but there were never less than 500 cops on cail and on Friday night it was closer to 1,500 more jumpy police, at any rate, than this city has ever mobilised for the protection of a living man. The care and feeding of Mr Mikoyan. by contrast, was a Boy Scout's job.

Now that he has gone, it can be said that the original image of a brave maquis, a beatnik Buonanarte. has blurred into something less purposeful MR K. REJECTS U.S. H-TEST OFFER But agrees with Macmillan's idea on inspection HOPE OF PROGRESS? BY OUR DIPLOMATIC CORRESPONDENT There were mixed feelings in London last night about Mr Khrushchev's week-end replies to the letters addressed to him on April 13 by President Eisenhower and Mr Macmillan on the ending of nuclear weapons tests. There was disappointment that Mr Khrushchev had rejected though in notably mild words the President's proposal for a phased agreement on the ending of nuclear weapons tests, beginning with a ban on all tests within the earth's atmosphere (about thirty miles up) and under water.

On the other hand the studied moderation' of Mr Khrushchev's replies, and the prospect they seemed to hold of a more reasonable Panama City, April 26. A Panama Government spokesman to-night said tht the situation in the country was serious as a result of the landing on the rugged San Bias peninsula of between forty and fifty armed foreign invaders, reported to include Cubans sent by Dr Fidel Castro, the Cuban leader, to liberate The rebel group landed on Friday night on Santa Isabel beach, near Mandinga, and set oil' towards the road-head town of Chepo. thirty miles away, in the centre of Panama's "waist." The Minister of Justice. Sefior Jose Bazan. told a press conference that a National Guard corporal this morning captured three invaders two Cubans and a Panamanian at a place called Nombre doDios, twenty miles away.

The remainder of the While his friends made him comfortable one member of the party, David Allsop, was sent to fetch help. It took him about half an hour to get to the surface. From there he had to run half a. mile down the hill to the potholers van and then drive to a farmhouse near by, where' he found about ten other potholers having tea. The police were informed by telephone and by 7 30 p.m.

Mr John Thompson and Mr J. C. Gilbert, of millan made it clear that they were as anxious as ever to reach a comprehensive agreement with the Russians under which all nuclear weapons tests would be prohibited for all time. Since the Soviet attitude to inspection seemed to make the of such a comprehensive agreement a somewhat distant pros onemeiu, lucai ieaaers oi me. t-ave itescue organisation were on tneir way to take charge.

Also alerted were ambulance and fire services from Buxton, and the R.A.F. Mountain Rescue Unit from Harpur Hill, Buxton. Its medical officer, Dr John Carter, who took a prominent part in the Peak Cavern rescue, and Dr is.ersnaw, oi aneuieia Jtoyai innrmary, were also soon on the scene. Not worried Meanwhile Keens was said to be in good spirits. A member of his party, John Needham, said We were never reailv worried and Keens was certainly not particularly bothered.

He was a bit annoyed, with himself tor falling, but it was not his fault, of course. By the time the other rescuers arrived the four of us had hoisted him nearly half-way up the shaft to one of the sloping bits. When the main rescue party arrived Dr Kershaw went down the rope ladder to see that Keens was all right and the injured man was trans- ferred to a nylon sling for the last 250ft. of the haul. On the last stage to the surface the hoistine could be done from the mouth of the shaft "where, on the open hillside, about tnirty supporting rescuers, police and ambulance men awaited to help by the light of hurricane lamps.

The committee also said that 12 per cent of the total youth population of the country boys and girls had been brought before the courts and charged with delinquency.

In a report to the Senate, it said that the number of boys with delinquency records exceeds 1,700,000 and predicted that the number will reach and pass the two million mark in the not too distant future." Mr Thomas Hennings, the committee chairman, noted that the problem was concentrated in the schools. For that reason, he said, his committee would propose new laws to help the schools.

Basis for agreement In his week-end Note to Mr Macmillan he said that "of course" the number of such annual on-site inspec- tions should not be great." Indeed theie was no need for many groups to travel to each of the countries concerned. And he claimed that the very knowledge that an inspection cuuiiuica iivin iJ'us uui. a'W test explosions and running the risk of being found out.

It was also being emphasised in London that Mr Macmillan had. of course, done no more than exchange views with Mr Khrushchev durins'his Moscow visit, and that he had certainly not attempted to negotiate with him on disarmament or anv other question.

Dr Castro, now finishing a tour of the United States and Canada, has stated repeatedly that he would not allow revolutionaries to organise in Cuba any expeditionary forces aimed at overthrowing the government of another State, and Sefior Bazan said he had no official information that the invasion boat had actually sailed from Cuba or that any other country was involved. Part of conspiracy However the group involved was part of the conspiracy and revolt headed by Dr Roberto Arias, husband of Dame Margot Fonteyn, who has taken refuge in the Brazilian Embassy in Panama City. The Government had communicated with the Panamanian Ambassador in Washington who, undoubtedly, as soon as he has the required information, will report the case to the Organisation of American States." The 55-foot invading launch had now been identified as the Mavare.

The three members of the invasion force were captured single-handed bv one National Guardsman. The men were armed with pistols and two of them carried Cuban passports. The captives were apparently a reconnaissance patrol sent out by the landing lorce. ne capture was made without any exchange of fire. The Minister said the Government was confident it could control the situation.

Asked how Government forces would reach the invasion group in the jungle-covered area he replied Don't worry, we will get there and capture them." A patrol of Panams's 2.0(10-strong National Guard, the republic's sole defence force, has been sent to the area, which has high mountains and precipices, heavy rainfall, dense jungle, no roads, and is infested with snakes. A Government statement earlier said it was prepared to suppress any intrusion on the soil of our motherland" It urged the population to remain calm and alert." adding that the San Bias people were co-operating with the Government. The Government has for weeks been predicting an invasion by soldiers pf fortune from Cuba, aimed at overthrowing President de la Guardia. A rebel band modelled on Dr Fidel Castro's insurgents has been reported in the province of Veraguas, southwest of here. Offer to Dr Arias There are reliable reports in Panama City that the Panamanian Government is willing to grant Dr Roberto Arias, husband of Dame Margot Fonteyn, a safe-conduct to leave Panama if he will disclose the whereabouts of a large cache of rebel arms.

The Panamanian National Guard claims to have more than a dozen arms caches near Santa Clara beach, but the Government estimates that some thirty machine-guns and many rifles and ammunition still have not been accounted for. One official said the Government was more concerned about these missing weapons than about Dr Arias. "Imagine what even one machine-gun would do in Panama." he said. Reuter.

At Eastbourne the A.E.U. Executive has, at last', a fair chance of winning over the union's delegates.

The diffi-fultv hprp anrl f-nrrhirinhTA. anH one on which supporters of the idea of a quid pro quo with the employers could easily founder is that -while four of the union's 26 divisions, regard the shorter week as of importance," only one has been consistent enough to refrain; from also tabling a demand for a. rise in-pay. Double thinking Seventeen of the divisions have submitted motions calling for increases ranging from substantial to as high as 30s a week.

The most example of this double thinking comes, as might be from North London, the district committee of which, led by Mr Reg. Birch, is controlled by the Communists. There will, therefore, be a struggle between those who want more money and more leisure, and those who. argue that it is impossible to have both. How hard and how public the dialectic will be depends upon a domestic question the election for the presidency of the uniun of which first and, perhaps, final details may be announced on Wednesday.

If the reigning president, Mr Carron, has been elected on the first ballot and defeats his chief opponent, Mr Birch, by an impressive majority, he and most of his executive council men will probably urge their case with the maximum power. If. on the other hand, it turns out that Mr Carron has not a complete majority over all the candidates so that a second ballot must be held, he will be more circumspect. t' BANK D.C.O.

PRINCESS HAS A COLD After Rome holiday Paris, April 26.

Princess Margaret, who arrived here last night with Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, on the way home from a five-day visit to Rome, rested this afternoon at the British Embassy with a cold and sore throat. She stayed at the Embassy while her mother drove through the chateau country outside Paris, but felt well enough to attend a dinner given by the Embassy to-night, which was attended by leading Frenchmen, including M.

We know better now what he is like but we still don't know who he is. And the State Department, the American newspaper editors, and the Wall Street investment houses are not much nearer than they were to solving the riddle of his political identity. Presumably Castro himself knows what solid ground, what concrete reforms, lie beneath his swirling floods of rhetoric, but few hard facts have emerged about the purpose of his visit. He brought with him the President of the Bunk of Cuba, the Minister of the Treasury, the Minister of the Economy, and his own private financial adviser.

They have been working almost secretly in the background. To the representatives of banking houses, the oil and sugar industries, and the State Department's office of inter-American affairs they unfolded the contents of their briefcases, which may be briskly summarised as a series of dilemmas Communist influence.

He said that they got the odd complaint from people about noise, but none had ever come from the golf club before. Whether or not the championship players are put off their stroke by the scream of jet engines will probably depend more than anything else on the direction of the wind. Squadron-Leader Chapman said that they did try to keep away from the course, but they obviously could not stop flying.
