Britain In Full Support
Of Kennedy’s Arms
Quarantine of Cuba
LONDON eP> — Britain Tuesday

Of Cuba. ' |
-i” '1 ! r--: Soviet reaction was a
vnra.n that the United States
■ a. "taiai. . a step along the road
i !' unit e.'' :ng a thermonuclear
world war."
1' a wt;;;a policy proclaimed by
Kenm uy aroused a mixture of
prai.w, a’ xiety and some criticism
in We fern Europe and heated
anger it Communist capitals.
Britain's backing of the Presi- j
dent v u strong and unequivocal. ;
Prime Minister Harold Mac-Mil- ;
Ian's government charged the
basing of offensive nuclear weap- !
ons in Cuba was provocative.
The British delegate on the
United Nations Security Council.
Sir Patrick Dean, has been in
structed to support the United
States request to end this danger,
a government statement said.
The vigorous expressions of
British support means the govern
ment will advise British ships to
cooperate with the Americans in
the operation of the arms block
ade.
The decision represented an al
most unprecedented break from
Britain’s tradition of refusing to
respect peacetime blockades, which
the English regarded as violating
the freedom of the high seas.
Japan Fishery Assn.
Will Seek More Equality
In Fisheries Treaty
TOKYO \ff' — The Greater Ja
pan Fishery Assn., a key segment
of the nation's fishing industry,
said Tuesday it will ask the gov
ernment to seek more "equality"
for the Japanese when a U.S.
Canada-Japan North Pacific Fish
ery Treaty is re-negotiated next
year.
The association declared the 10
year tripartite agreement which
(.-spires next June gives the United
States and Canada a monopoly on
trout, salmon and halibut in the
eastern half of the North Pacific
as the pact prohibits the Japanese
from taking the three types of fish
east of 175 degrees west longitude.
An association spokesman said
conservation of fish resources
could be achieved through a more
scientific and rational method than
bv drawing a line in the ocean.
He also said his government
should propose revising the treaty.
It has been found that a wom
an's vocal cords vibrate about
twice as fast as a man's.

WASHINGTON rP Two for
mer Presidents have expressed
support for President Kennedy’s
action to blockade Soviet offen
sive arms to Cuba.
“There is only one course for
the American people in this or., i..
of Communist aggression," said
Herbert Hoover in New York.
“That is to stand by the Presi
dent."
"Tie Russians have always
backed up when we met them
with force.” said Harry Truman,
who was in Hutchinson, Kan., to
address a Democratic rally. He
predicted Kennedy’s action i'l » e
effective and will not ith m war.
Kennedy also got suoport fro n
such prominent Republica"
former Vice President R Ivrd
Nixon. Gov. Nelson Rock ‘
ami Sen. Barry Goldwat'. r.
Rockefeller, at Rochester. " Y .
said all Americans .‘must
united behind the President" be
cause the Communist threat it',
Cuba “could not be ignored.”
Goldwater called the action
“welcome but belated.” and said
it will "receive the enthuvasti
backing of the American pooi.de ’’
Truman said Kennedy's action
is "a parallel with Korea, the
Congo and Berlin. There’s no dif
ference."
Nixon said there are obvious
risks in the action, but “the risks
of inaction are immensely greater.
In my view this action will not
lead to war."
Citing U S. handling of Commu
nist aggression at Qucmoy, Matsu
: and Lebanon, when be was Vice
President under Eisenhower, Nixon
said "sin ng action actually de
creases the possibilities of war."
Only about a third of all cars
sold in the United States are paid
for in cash.
