Judge Fernando Lopez said his four-month investigation showed a detonator placed in the munitions, presumably during loading at Antwerp, Belgium, caused the March 4 explosion that killed 54 persons, injured more than a hundred and left 27 missing.

Property damage amounted to more than million dollars, Lopez said. He added that the arms were shipped from Antwerp "despite the efforts of the United States consul in Brussels to prevent the shipment." Prime Minister Fidel Castro in a funeral oration for the La Coubre dead said U. S. officials sought to keep Cuba from buying the munitions. He accused the United States of responsibility for the explosion.

The United States denied the charge and termed II irresponsible and unfounded.

ROOSEVELT-Republic SUNDAY and MONDAY More Order Expected At GOP Parley CHICAGO (AP) "Clear the aisles. 7 That plea to get out of the walking lanes and sit down was a amiliar sound effect at the Democratic nominating sessions in Los Angeles. But it won't be heard so often at the Republican National Convention in Chicago in the opinion of the top planners of the big GOP show.

Miss Josephine Good, executive director of the Republican con- 'ention phrased it this way at a news conference: "I think we'll have the problems they had in keeping order. It isn't so big a hall and the people can't wander around so much." She says she looks for a more compact, more orderly conven- ion with better acoustics and transportation and more hotel space. Miss Good, 42, a native of Denver, is a 110-pound woman who wears her blonde hair pulled straight back in the best lady- who-gets-things-done style. Her associates say she is the first woman to fill such a job at a national major party convention. She was an assistant to the director at the 1956 convention.

"Most of all," she explained, "it involves keeping track of details--and there are hundreds of them--and seeing that all runs smoothly and on time." Among the details are badges, seats and tickets to the seat International Amphitheatre, where the convention will open July 25 for a scheduled four-day run. Jaren Jones, vice chairman of the GOP Arrangements Committee, called the Democratic meeting a Hollywood extravaganza. His party, he said, will put on a political convention. "We intend to go about our business of nominating a president and vice president and accepting a platform and hearing from party people," he said. It won't be, he said, a variety show.

Author of the ultimatum was Louis G. Feldmann of Hazleton, national commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Feldmann told a business session in connection with the VFWs 41st annual convention now in session here that if gambling is not halted within one week in those clubs which permit it, "I'll spend the next three weeks suspending charters." Feldmann declared it was not the majority that caused the trouble but "the couple of little guys." The commander said he was backing in the statewide crackdown on gambling launched by Gov. David L. Lawrence and the state police.

Feldmann chided the veterans for their failure to take more Interest in causes which affect their Welfare. He said he had heard nothing about veterans in the Democratic platform and was sending a wire "to the other political party convention asking them not to forget us entirely."

Designations Of Highways Are Changed PITTSBURGH (AP)--The Stale i a Department Friday changed highway designations in Allegheny, Beaver, Washington and Westmoreland Counties. Under the new system. Route 88 north from Pittsburgh through Beaver County will become Route 65: Route 28 north will end with the intersection of Route 8 in Pittsburgh; Route 28 south from Pittsburgh to West Virginia will become Route 51). Route 80 in Pittsburgh will become Route 380; the Penn-Lincoln Parkway wilt become Interstate 70 as part of the new interstate highway system. Route 88 south will end at the intersection with Route 51 in Pittsburgh.

The new designations will go into effect in "about three or four months." William R. B. Froehlich. chief deputy secretary of highways, explained that the highways will be surveyed to determine the number of new signs needed. Then the signs will be erected.

The project should be completed by next spring, he said. The revised names will eliminate the "multiplicity of routes" which overlap because of the new expressways, Freohlich said. Interstate 70 will be the only new area designation to appear on the I960 state maps to be released next month. Maps showing the complete change will not be published until next summer, he said, because of many similar changes in other areas particularly around Harrisburg. In the case of the parkway, Froehlich explained that the inter state highway regulations forbid the use of memorial names as designations.
