Macmillan's message accompanied a note rejecting Russia's charges that Britain is conspiring with the United States in violating Soviet air space Siam Royalty In London LONDON (AP) -- Thailand's King Bhumibol Adulyadej and beauteous Queen Sirikit arrived by air from Geneva today for a three-day state visit as guests' of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip. Shipping Strike Ends LONDON (Reuters) -- A 13-day wudcat strike by seamen which has disrupted shipping services in Britain ended today in most ports. The National Union of Seamen said that in ail cases except Hull the men had decided to return to work im- mediately. The strike, called to back demands for more money Securly Council's hands and put it before the Organization of American States (OAS) because it can exert more pressure on the "vulnerable'" member na- tions of the inter-American group. Hoarse and haggard from his recent siege of pneumonia, Cas- tro returned to TV with a wide- ranging three-hour blast in which he called the new U.S. plan of aid for Latin America a "half- billion-dollar bribery" designed to "destroy the sympathies of the Latin American people for the! Cuban revolution." Castro also took note of anti- Communist outbursts at Roman Catholic church services in Ha- vana during the last two days. Bernard Ezhaya of North Abing- ton, Mass., pleaded guilty Mon- day in United States district court to taking part in a conspir- acy to pledge bonds stolen from Canadian banks in 1957 and 1958. He was given a two-year sus- pended sentence by Judge Rob- ert P. Anderson, who cited the defendant's previous good record and his present ill health as fac- tors in the sentencing. Ezhaya, operator of an indus- trial relations firm in Boston, was arrested in November, 1958, for pledging $76,000 worth of] bonds as collateral for loans at] banks in New London. He was later also indicted for pledging an additional $50,000 worth in Waterville, Me. He accused "privileged counter- revolutionary' elements of trying, to convert religious shrines into centres of conspiracy and as- serted that part of the Catholic clergy in Cuba is "pro-Franco, Falangist and reactionary."
