A total of 159 persons have been arrested. It was really nicely planned; two men were to take position with a heavy machine gun in a house facing the tribune where Raul Castro was to speak. Four men with hand- grenades were to cover the escape after the attack. Now, in case the attack should fail, it was presumed Raul Castro would head for the airport, so six men with machine guns were to be stationed on the road leading there. But the second part of the written plan which fell into hands of the government is really the most interesting. Not less than four mortars were to be fired against the American base at a given time. At the same moment another mortar was to fire at an ar- SOVIET ROCKETS MOSCOW — Many of the) delicate parts of the Soviet rockets used for peaceships had to be assembled in build- ings built on special anti-vib- ration foundations, because the vibration caused by a passing the details of a plot to kill were revealed. Raul Castro, who is chief of the armed forces, was to speak at a big rally in Santiago de Cuba on the anniversary of the be- ginning of the revolution. It is proven that a great number counter-revolutionaries from the American base in Guantanamo (photographs show mortars, machine guns, etc.) and that the planning was made by Cubans in co-opera- tion with high ranking officers inside the base. tillery position of the Cuban army near by, so they would believe they were being at- tacked from the American base and therefore would open fire against the Americans. Since the Yankee soldiers— who are not told everything— had already been fired on, any- way, by the mortars operated by the counter revolutionaries, they were expected to let go with everything they had against the Cuban artillery position. A nice pretext for full scale military interven- tion. It didn’t work. Poor Uncle Sam, he tries so hard. x * * It came like a bombshell, Saturday morning the news- papers and the radio told the people that all paper money must be changed against new notes, that from eight p.m. Monday the old notes would be without value. All stores were to remain closed Satur- day and Sunday. Sunday mor- ning people started to line up as early as four a.m. in front of the exchange offices, which had been rapidly organized all over the country.

By Monday night the opera- tion had been completed suc- cessfully and a tremendous blow had been dealt the coun- ter-revolution.. Four hundred million pesos had not been turned in. This meant that most of this sum was in the hands of counter - revolution- aries in the U.S. and the Cen- tral Intelligence Agency and could be used in Cuba in the financing of sabotage, murder and other nice things, had the change of currency not taken place. The most remarkable thing about it all was that it, came as a complete surprise for the population. Cubans have long said about themselves that dis- cretion is not one of their vir- tues, but of all the hundreds of people ‘that knew what was coming and had helped pre pare it, nobody spilled the beans. Remarkable what so- cialism and a revolutionary consciousness can do. When it was all over Fidel went on TV and explained the measure, as everything that is done here is always carefully explained in great detail. (Just imagine old Dief in Ottawa getting up to make an honest speech to the Canadian peo< ple!) Anyhow, people were allows ed to keep up to 500 pesos of the money turned in notes.
