The Slate Department press
chief, Lincoln White, told his
news confer ence yesterday,
however, that the United States
will continue to do everything
possible to learn what happened
to the 11 missing members of
the 17-man crew.
He declined to speculate on
whether they are alive or dead.
The decision to release the
record. White said, was made
because the U.S. government
had been unable in five months
of diplomatic inquiries to pry
any information* out of Moscow.
He denied speculation that the
recording was made public in an
effort to influence possible nego
tiations with Russia this year on
the status of Berlin and other
cold war problems.
Few officials would deny,
however, that the tape recording
has significance far greater than
the light which the State Depart
ment says it throws on the de
struction of the Air Force trans
port.
Soviet Leader
Blasts Senator
MOSCOW yP) Soviet Pre
mier Nikita Khrushchev says
some of U.S. Sen. Hubert Hum
phrey's (D-Minn) reports about
their eight-hour interview were
fairy tales. He practically called
the senator a liar.
The text of his address to the
final session of the Communist
party congress as published yes
terday revealed a scorching at
tack on Humphrey.
Khrushchev denied he gave the
Minnesota Democrat secrets to
take back to President Eisenhow
er. He called it unthinkable that
he would talk confidentially with
Humphrey about relations "with
our best friends, the leading peo
ple in the Communist party of
China.”
Humphrey had been quoted in
the United States as saying
Khrushchev, though reluctant to
discuss China, referred to the sys
tem of communes as old-fashioned
and reactionary, based upon the
doctrine: To each according to his
needs, from each according to his
ability.
Senate Overshoots
Ike's Budget Again
WASHINGTON yP)— I The Sen
ate last night overshot President
Eisenhowers budget recommen
dations by voting for a federal
aid airport program costing 465
million dollars.
The vote was 63-22.
Eisenhower had urged that the
federal grants, which have to be
matched by the states, be limited
to 200 million dollars over the
next four years.
Every Republican effort to cut
the total of the airport bill was
rejected.
Former U.S. Navy Pilot
Denies Part in Plot
HAVANA (/P) —A former U.S.
Navy pilot denied yesterday he
had come to Cuba to kill Fidel
Castro. Police claim Alan Robert
Nye confessed plotting to assassi
nate the rebel leader for $lOO,OOO.
Tn an interview at the suburban
military headquarters in Camp
Libertad, the 31j-year-old flier
from Whiting, Ind., said:
"I have not signed any confes
sion. I did not go to the Sierra
in the mountain?
Maestra (the rebel headquarters
in the mountains) to kill Fidel
Castro.”
He added he had "full faith and
full confidence in the justice of
Cuba.” He said he had not yet
appointed a lawyer. I
