Hares in
HAVANA (4))—Every anti-U.S. word Fidel Castro utters
in New York is being magnified in Havana into the bitterest
anti-American campaign in Cuban history.

absence, led off the campaign early yesterday.

authorized to conduct the general
policy of the country, to assure

To Lead - Kennedy
WASHINGTON (W,--Sen. John
F. Kennedy told the nation last
night it must expect sacrifices
to preserve U.S. world leadership
against the efforts of Commu
nist enemies seeking to under
mine the ,peace.
"There is very little time," the
Democratic predential nominee
said. "The enemy is lean and
hungry—and we are the only
sentinel at the gate."

vision speech of the campaign,

Campaign
Havana
He declared Fidel and the Cu
ban delegation were being abused
in New Uork and that this could
lead to the expulsion of the Unit
ed States from the Guantanamo
naval base in eastern Cuba.
Raul shouted to a hastily called
early morning mass rally of 50,-
000 persons in the square of the
presidential palace: "It's within
our possibilities in a determined
moment to reclaim that piece of
our national territory."
It was the most direct threat
against the U.S. base since Cas
tro took power.
Castro's propaganda machine
newspapers and radio—told and
retold how Castro left one New
York hotel for "refuge" in the
Negro section of Harlem. They
cited pressure and alleged mis
treatment at a mid-Manhattan
hotel and blamed the State De
partment.
They told, too, Castro's story of
overcharges by the operator of
the first hotel, but didn't mention
that Castro was paying a still
higher price for :omits in Har
lem.
The semi-official newspaper
Revolution ran a banner head
line that proclaimed: "We will
nationalize them down to even
their Yankee spies."
It warned that abuse of Castro
would brink counteraction to
Americans in Cuba.
To raise their impressive crowd
after midnight, the Cuban regime
used a new technique. It asked
Castro's chain of radio and tele
vision station's to summon people
for the meeting.•
Most of those who attended
were members of well-organ
ized labor federations. They
heard Raul and Cuban Presi
dent Osvaldo Dorticos attack
the United States and U.S. Am
bassador Philip Bonsai.
Some quarters predicted that
Bonsai soon would return to
Washington, leaving the embassy
in the hands of a charge d'affaires.
Cuba has had no ambassador in
Washington for nearly a year.

port.
THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA
Nixon Urges
U.S. Stand
Behind Ike
'EN ROUTE WITH NIXON (EP)
—Vice President Richard M.
Nixon yesterday urged all
America to put partisanship
aside and stand united behind
President Eisenhower while
regimented Communists
march lockstep through the
United Nations. •
The Republican presidential
nominee went even further and
proposed a political moratorium
on talk of American weakness or
division that would all but gag his
Democratic rival, Sen. - John F.
Kennedy, on what Kennedy calls
the central issue of the campaign.
And Nixon promised flatly to
continue some sort of spying on
Russia if he reaches the White
House.
That was while the vice presi
dent was driving to keep Pennsyl
vania, with its crucial 32 electoral
votes, and Michigan, with 20, in
the Republican camp in the No
vember election.
