Tractor Talks End as Cuba Tractors-for-Prisoner Swap Fails
In Havana U S negotiators announce they will depart Cuba Thursday regardless of talks on a tractors-for-prisoners exchange. Four American technical experts seek 500 tractors to swap for 1 214 prisoners, but Castro’s terms for heavy tractors and the prisoners remain unacceptable. The U S team plans to fly home Thursday and report to the Tractors for Freedom Committee led by Eleanor Roosevelt Walter P Reuther and Dr Milton Eisenhower. Corticos sticks to heavy tractor demands and rules out exchanging three high value prisoners from the April 17 invasion.

Parking Tests Set Up Locally By Commission
The Lawrence City Commission acted quickly Tuesday to address downtown parking issues with a test program. It introduces storage lots for store employees, shifts two hour meters to five hours near the lots, and asks for merchant cooperation. The 36 stall lot behind the library will host long term meters for workers and short term meters for patrons, while the lot south of the Congregational Church becomes a no limit area for the same purpose. City Manager Harold Horn said meters and signs will be installed soon, following a Friday night meeting that highlighted storage lots as a major topic. The panel left room for further action if needed and emphasized merchant cooperation to ensure success. The commission also pared down the Human Relations Commission candidate list to 20, with nine final appointees to be chosen for staggered terms. Routine traffic matters were approved, including parking removals along several streets.
