In Havana Fidel Castro reshuffled its cabinet by replacing Communications Minister Enrique Oltuski with Raul Curbelo Morales, signaling possible seizure of the American owned Cuban Electric Co valued at about 300 million dollars.

Tougher U S Policy Against Castro May Follow Seizures
UPI and AP reporting from Vienna and Washington describe a cautious shift toward a tougher U S stance on Fidel Castro as seizures of property prompt calls for stronger action. Khrushchev’s neutral Austria visit drew a cool, largely apathetic crowd and little overt U S reaction. In Washington, strategists anticipate possible measures targeting Castro, with plans including sugar quota cuts and the U S alliance with Latin American and Caribbean partners.
