President Hopeful That Soviet Will Withdraw Further Troops From Cuba
President Kennedy said the Soviets have withdrawn about 3 000 troops from Cuba in recent weeks and he hopes this is only a start. He noted full withdrawal may be clearer by end of May and cited 17 000 Soviet military and technical personnel in Cuba previously. He spoke after a San Jose Costa Rica trip with Central American leaders about hemispheric friendship and readiness to defend freedom. He also addressed domestic matters, predicting no recession this year, supporting a three year 10.2 billion tax cut if needed, and backing Defense Secretary McNamara on the TEX fighter contract.

Bequest to Aid Hershey Home Funds
A $250000 residual estate from Mrs. Aldean Chaplin was directed to fund a room or rooms for indigent Muscatine residents in Hershey Memorial Hospital. Net income from the trust assets will support the hospital and convalescent home, with fallback to other non profits in Muscatine if the hospital ceases to exist. Judge Westvale approved the transfer, noting the funds sẽ be administered by Muscatine Bank and Trust Co. and that earnings must aid hospital care rather than ward maintenance.
