Although it is spending an unknown but considerable amount on propaganda and on weapons, there isnt yet gny indication that the country is faced with a problem of raising enough foreign exchange to pay for imports. A Cuban purchasing agency in Texas shut up shop and went home a few days ago because no American i concern would sell it the repair parts and chemical catalysts it needs to keep the seized U.S. oil refineries working. Yet there have been no reports of any of the refineries having shut down for lack of such materials. The final question is whether the other Latin American countries will tui Instead, we will continue to insist that the properties belong to their U.S'.

The No. One question, of course, is how long well have to wait for a chance to apply this pressure. Historically, revolutionary governments in Latin America dont last long, although youll find nobody here who will attempt to estimate how long the Castro regime can hang on. On one side, there is the fact that Castro promised his people a lot more in the way of the good life than he has been able to deliver up to now.

So far he has been able to keep prices fairly 'stable, but at the same time he is demanding more work and more sacrifices from the people, and most of the authorities on Canoga Ave, 20-30 Club, 7:30 pm.

On the other hand, the same experts admit that tbfe Cuban situation is unique because Castro has strong Communist support, and the Communists are specialists in dealing with local disaffection. Whether the system that works in Red China, in Russia, Hungary, East Germany and other Communist countries will work also in a Latin American nation is one of the unknowns in the equation. When you suggest to the experts that a dictatorship worked in Argentina for 12 years, and has worked even longer in the Dominican Republic, they reply that Peron and Trujillo concentrated on giving the peasants, and workers better living conditions than they had had before. Castro hasnt been able to do the is that they feel about Castro about as the felt six months ago, when we still thought he might swing out of Russias orbit. His performance at the United Nations seems to have raised more doubts about him among the other Latin Americans, but there still isnt any unified feeling against If the feeling develops, it will be harder for him to continue the pitch that all his troubles are the' fault of the Yankee imperialists.

He never has admitted to his fellow Latinos that the U.S. offered Cuba loans for development projects as recently as six months ago, and that he rejected the offer. The U.S. is spreading the word now and incidentally congratulating itself that the offer wasnt accepted, since its now apparent that he would have turned to Russia in any case.

This wont happen, unless present views are completely re-versed. The reason is that such an arrangement could be taken as an admission that we regard the properties as definitely lost.

It would amount to selling them for a fraction of their value on an installment plan stretching over several years. Among other objections, some specialists in the field think this would be an invitation to other Latin American countries, Venezuela, for to expropriate other U.S. properties and pay for them, out of export revenues over a long period. The U.S. is not going to extend such an invitation.

The application for this test, the largest to date, is now before the FCC. A pub-lice hearing has been set for Oct. 24.
