At the same time, U-S. offi- cials awaited analysis of new }reconnaissance photos that may tell whether Russian techni- cians have started pulling down those bases which almost brought on U.S. military action.

The UN official leaves for Ha- vana today for talks with Cas- tro on proposed UN supervision of the missile removal as agreed to by Soviet Premier Khrushchev, As a practical matter, the lifting of the blockade means little. No Russian ships were re- ported near the blockade zone and the defence department in- dicated that all those suspected of bearing offensive weapons to Cuba had already "disappeared from the scene." Informed government sources reported Monday night that U.S. destroyers and aircraft detected and trailed more than two So- viet submarines for about two days last week in the blockade area. The Soviet craft went ¢ be'r conferences Monday, including two with Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister Vasily Kuznetsov, sent by Premier Khrushchev to ne- gotiate on.Cuba affairs. Thant also saw Ambassador Adlai Stevenson of the United States. UN officials described the talks with the Russian and the American respectively as "constructive" and "useful." Thant released a letter he sent Khrushchev Sunday ex- pressing the belief the situation in the Caribbean would be "'nor- malized" when the missiles are pulled out and the bases dis- mantled, Thant still faced the ticklish job of winning Castro's appro- val for UN inspection procedure on which he worked here in con- junction with U.S. and Soviet officials. way without incident, the sources said. With a Russian fleet of some 400 submarines roaming the world's seas, it is not unusual jcontact with them. | By all the signs, the block- ade has been fully successful in choking off the flow of any ers or other offensive weapons from entering Cuba.

A good portion of the Bladen recom- mendations remain to be acted on--including a suggested 10- per-cent duty on British autos which continue to enter Canada duty free. WILL MAKE CLEAR Said Mr, Nowlan: "These measures will make clear to the Canadian automo- tive industry the determination of this government to reduce the imbalance in the automo- bile sector of our trade (about $500,000,000 deficit last year) and to do this by reducing costs \through increasing production for export rather than by in- \creasing protection at the ex- pense of the Canadian consu- |mer." | His announcement smacked somé@what of the national oil policy enunciated under some- what similar circumstances in |February, 1961.

Burglar Shot By Priest . Aiter Stabbing CHICAGO (AP) -- A knife- wielding burglar was shot by a priest early today in the rectory of St. Patrick's Roman Catholic Church after, police said, he fatally stabbed the housekeeper and seriously wounded her sis- ter. After shooting the burglar, the priest, Rey. Stephen O'Don- nell, 49, tackled him and held him to the floor until police ar- rived. Police identified the burglar as Larry Vernon, 22, of San An- tonio, Tex. They said he broke into the rectory and invaded the first-floor room where the two sisters, Betty Walsh, 44, and Peggy, 36, a cook at the rec- tory, were asleep. The sisters ran from the bed- room and shouted to awaken Father O'Donnel and Rev. Da- niel Holihan, asleep on the sec-| ond 'floor.

Effective Nov. 1, it would be collected again but refunds on payment of this duty would be made on automatic transmis- sions or parts thereof "contin- gent on the export by each company importing automatic transmissions of an equal value of Canadian-produced automo- bile parts." This would apply to Canadian firms selling to foreign affili- ates--in the United States and elsewhere. Auto engines, he said, will continue to bear the existing 25-per-cent duty but a refund would be made on a limited number -- benefitting smaller firms who must import all their engines while the larger ones make most of theirs in Canada. The value of imported auto- matic transmissions last year was about $32,000,000.

He said the Indian forces also had launched an artillery attack on Chinese strongholds on the outskirts of the village of Wa- long, about 15 miles from the Burmese border. But to the west, in the cen- tral region of the northeastern frontier, Indian troops were forced to withdraw from a bor- der base under heavy attack by the Chinese, the spokesman said, adding that Indian forces earlier had repulsed two Chinese attacks.

The traditional speech from the throne, written for the Queen by the cabinet, outlined the government's legislative plans for the new session. The speech touched only briefly on the Cuban situation as did the address to Parlia- ment last week which formally ended the last legislative ses- sion. The speech said the British government viewed with grave concern the "introduction of of- fensive missiles into Cuba." But the British government was "glad to learn that those missiles are to be dismantied under the supervision of the United Nations," : On the Indian-Chinese border fighting, the speech said the change in the situation since the Chinese forces captured the post' gion of Kashmir. The Indian Army had strengthened its positions ear- lier today. against further Chi- an "flood "of weapons started arriving. tinue to seek a negotiated set- tlement "'which will preserve the security and freedom of West Berlin." PROPOSE MEASURES On the domestic front, the government proposed a series of social measures aimed at en- suring the welfare of consum- ers, workers and childrer. For workers, the government would prescribe a minimum pe- riod of notice, presumably af- fecting both dismissals and lay- offs. A new bill also would re- quire employers to give employ- ees written statements about terms of employment. The speech referred briefly to the issue of British membership in the European Common Mar- ket,~ reasserting the govern- ment's plans to "use every ef- fort" to bring the current mem- bership negotiations in Brus- sels to an acceptable conclusion. The' Common Market issue promises to be one of the thorn- iest of the new session. frontier paused while both sides sent in reinforcements.

He said Chinese casual- ties had been higher. The Chinese captured Dem- chok and nearby Jara Pass in southern Ladakh Saturday, the Indian government anounced.

ASK MENON RESIGN The inadequacy of the milit- ary equipment for the troops provoked new demands for the resignation of Defence Minister V. K. Krishna Menon. Opposi- tion to him is becoming so strong within Nehru's Congress Party that some observers think the prime minister might give into it soon. So far Nehru has left Krishna Menon in the defence job but assumed most of his duties, pushing the minister toward the background.

"India can rest assurred that the Canadian government will co-operate to the fullest in help- ing that nation acquire those items which it needs to defend itself in this critical hour." Mr. Diefenbakerm said that in response to an Indian request, the government Friday gave In- dia a preliminary report on the kinds of military equipment available in Canada. He mentioned only the Cari- bou transport plane, capable of landing and taking off in short distances on rough terrain. Out- side the Commons, officials said Canadian weapons available to India also include artillery and bazookas and the ammunition for them, wireless sets and some aircraft types besides the Caribou.
