Secretary of State Dean Rusk condemned the House foreign aid cut as a false economy, appealing for restoration. He warned an amendment blocking aid to countries shipping to Cuba would strain allies, while noting a total $1.1 billion cut from the program and a near $1.4 billion reduction in the overall appropriation. The measure heads to the Senate for review amid cross-party debate on Cuba policy and defense material provisions.

Puerto Rico Holds Up Cuban Sugar Auction's Hidden Tension
In San Juan a Puerto Rican court attached an $800,000 Cuban sugar cargo aboard the Soviet chartered Streatham Hill, a British freighter bound for the Soviet Union. The 120,000 bag cargo was seized after Kane’s Miami firm won $198,478 in damages for Cuba nationalizations. The Soviets and British plan to contest the attachment, arguing the sugar was bought and paid for by the Soviet Union and is not Cuban property. A fire damaged the hold as the dispute escalates, with the vessel detained until unloading completes.
