...Cuba's Premier Fidel Castro roundly denounced the Organization of American States as "the whorehouse of imperialism." His acerbic judgment was presumably reinforced by the diplomatic and trade quarantine imposed on Cuba by the OAS three years later. Now, though, Castro may well be in a mind to revise his opinion. Last week OAS members- notably Peru, Costa Rica, Panama and Colombia-were lobbying for an end to the economic and political isolation of Cuba. When the foreign ministers of the organization meet in Quito this week, it is virtually certain that the required two-thirds majority...
...Nixon Administration's anticrime and wiretapping policies. He defended the Rev. Philip Berrigan in his conspiracy trial. He allowed Herbert Blyden, a leader in the Attica rebellion, to second his nomination for the Senate at the state Democratic convention. By recently flying to Cuba to chat with Fidel Castro, Javits may have won back some of the deserting liberals.

Among the 650,000 Cubans who have immigrated to the U.S. since Fidel Castro came to power in Havana 15 years ago, the dream for many years was of a post-Castro return to the island homeland. The Cuban exiles still bristle at any sign of a coming rapprochement between the two countries, and were angry about last week's visit to Cuba by U.S. Senators Jacob Javits and Claiborne Pell (see THE WORLD). Miami Extra, a Florida-based Cuban newspaper, scorned the Senators as "tourists of socialism" and ran a cartoon showing the two emerging, battered and bloodied...
...Senate Foreign Relations Committee, New York Republican Jacob K. Javits, and Rhode Island Democrat Clairborne Pell, flew to Cuba, ostensibly against the wishes of the State Department. The two Senators had originally informed the State Department--which continues to implement the U.S. policy of non-recognition of Fidel Castro's government--of their desire to make the trip in April. Their request for clearance was rejected in August, according to a Javits aide. Only last month did the Department, though continuing to maintain that it was opposed to the mission, suddenly reverse itself and grant them the necessary clearance...
