Some ministers were to return by train teday while others scattered from Que- bec to spend the New Year weekend at their homes across Canada, In the appointments made at Quebec, the promotion of Jacques Flynn, MP for Quebec South, from the deputy Speaker- ship of the Commons to mines minister will necessitate the se- lection of a new deputy Speaker when the next parliamentary session opens Jan, 18, Mr. Diefen baker also had State Secretary Dorion sworn in as president of the Privy Coun-| cil, and created two new Privy Councillors -- former Ontario Quebec Cabinet Meet Implications Develop eyes of Quebecers has been raised, He can now be intro- duced at political and other meetings not only as "Le Secre- taire d'Etat du Canada," but re- soundingly as "'Le President du Conseil Privee."

The ultimate American hope is that the Cuban people will be stirrea up by internal unrest and poverty to topple Castro's re- gime, which has had to contend with sporadic guerrilla action in the Escambray Mountains east of Havana. Cuvan rebel leaders feel the United States is on the wrong track; that nothing will dislodge Castro except open invasion. American diplomats maintain invasion at this time would be the height of folly, They feel the best course open now is diplom- acy, to get the Latins to impose economic sanctions on Cuba, Tut the wheels of diplomacy gritd slowly in the Latin coun- tries. Even the» U.S. pledge of a 10 - year, $20,000,000,000 eco- nomic program to aid Latin America has failed to stir up any great concerted agr t US. Stepping Up Latin Pressures the 2l-country Organization of Ameticn States meets in Uru- guay to consider whether there* is communism in Cuba and: whether this poses a threat to the hemisphere, The ministers will meet at the request of Colombia and Peru' on the Cuban issue, though be- hind the scenes the U.S. has been active in promoting the meeting. Basis of the conference is the' 1947 Rio de Janeiro agreement' that member states will consult umong themselves before taking any action when the hemisphere' is threatened by an external force. . Although Castro has declared himself a Marxist, some of the big Latin countries refused to go along with the proposal to hold the foreign ministers' con- fercnce, It finally was approved by the OAS council on a 14-to2 vote with five abstentions, The abstainers are Argentna, Bra- zil, Chile, Bolivia and Beuador: Mcxico joined Cuba in opposi- tion. to help the U.S. oust the bearded Cuban leader.
