Congress weighing bill to register U S claims against Cuba
A House committee moves toward allowing Americans to register claims against Cuba for seized property. The measure, backed by Rep Dante Fascell, would empower the Foreign Claims Settlement Commission to document U S ownership in Cuba. Johnson era actions and Senate edits shaped the plan, with uncertain recovery and historic peacetime seizure implications.

New Premier Is Dashing Pilot Ky Belongs To Youth
South Viet Nam's new premier Ky, a 34 year old air force marshal who led bombing raids on North Viet Nam and was wounded, advocates revolutionary government ideas that worry U.S. officials. He seeks to rotate leadership to the younger generation, embracing both military and civilian youth as future leaders while distancing from old party structures. Ky’s past defense of Khanh and his shifting stance suggest a bold but unstable path for Saigon’s government. He argues Viet Nam's leaders must be more revolutionary than the Communists to win public support and end the war.
