U S Senate debates a companion resolution while House votes to halt foreign aid to nations allowing ships to carry goods to Cuba. Amendments target countries supplying the Communist island as Soviet shipments to Cuba rise, with officials citing 65 to 75 shiploads since July and roughly 200 Soviet personnel in Cuba. Debate centers on if the measure is enough and the threat level, with callers for unity and warning that a blockade could be war.
