Kennedy last night blamed Vice President Richard M. Nixon and the Eisenhower administration for policy failures which he said led to estab lishment of a militant Communist satellite in Cuba. He devoted his entire speech to Cuba, an unusual cam- paign move for him. His aides had dropped the word in advance they considered it one of his ma jor efforts to date. Kennedy said there was. a four fold answer to the question, "How did we .permit the Communists to establish this foothold 90 miles away?": •"We refused to help Cuba meet its desperate need for eco nomic progress." • "We used the influence of our government to advance the inter ests and increase the profits of the private American companies which dominate the island's econ omy." •The United States gave "stat ure and support to one of the most bloody and repressive dictator ships in the long history of Latin- American repression"—the Batis ta regime. - •"We did nothing to persuade the people of Cuba and Latin America that we wanted to be on the side of freedom."
