Publicker to halt Cuban molasses imports under 1 year deal
The Agriculture Department announced a one year contract with Publicker Chemical Corp to stop Cuban molasses imports. In return Publicker will be sold 14 million bushels of corn at a loss to use as a substitute in industrial alcohol and liquor production. The White House urged acceptance, citing public interest concerns. President Kennedy opposed the deal earlier and noted a large Cuban molasses shipment to Publicker docks in New Orleans prompted the action.

House opposition grows as Democrats seek to extend aid and add subjects like physical fitness and English, with fellowships rising to 5,000 for future teachers.
