to appeal to Canada to shut off trade with Cuba State Secretary Ocan Rusk says American intelligence has disclosed that Fidel Castro is using dollars and foreign ex change to nromote subversion in other countries it trade produces foreign exchange reserves which can be used by the present government of Cuba to strengthen subver sive activities in other countries we thinkwe have to take that into account Rusk told press conference Thursday Asked whether the US would suggest to the Canadian govem ment that trade between Can ada and Cuba be stopped Rusk replied That is something we will take up after this meeting dont want to comment on that today ltusk who spoke with report crs few hours nltcrrrcturning from the Punta dcl Estc meet ing on the controversial Cuban issue was asked to elaborate on the Canadian problem To what extent would all the resolutions accepted at the Puntn del Este conference be effective without the active par ticipation by Canada HOPES FOR SUPPORT Well of course we do hope replied Rusk that other coun tries having seen the clear ex pressions of policy and attitude to the Organization of American States would considerand am not referring to any single country consider whether they might not align their policies with the policies of the interAmerican system think we will find that number of countries will be looking at it from that point of View Canada is not member of the Organization of American States and does not go along policy The US has imposed an embargo on all exports to Cuba with the exception of food and medicine Most imports also have stopped with the ex ception of some items includ ing tobacco In the first 11 months of 1961 the US exported $13600000 worth of goods to Cuba com pared with 3222700000 in all of l960 Imports from Cuba dropped to $32400000 in the 11 months from $367200000 in all of 1960 In contrast Canadian exports to Cuba rose to $21500000 in the first ninb months of 1960 up $11000000 from the similar 1960 period Canadian imports from Cuba dropped to $4000000 from $6700000 in that period Thusin commodity trade the balance was strongly in Can adas favor MAY CUT ALI TRADE Asked whether the US now would
