Kaiser Settles With Steel Union, Breaking Industry's Solid Front; Castro Charges U.S. Aggression

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26--A strike settlement agreement was reached by the Kaiser Corp. and the United Steelworkers of America today.

The settlement is effective to June 30, 1961.

Kaiser's separate negotiations marked a break in the industry line maintained during the 104-day-old steel strike.

In announcing its decision to break away from the bargaining group, Kaiser said it was the "only responsible step we can take in the face of mounting national emergency."

The 11 other companies said Kaiser's defection would not affect their determination to resist what they called an inflationary settlement.

The U.S. 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia said it will rule Tuesday afternoon whether the 500,000 striking workers must return to their jobs for 80 days under a Taft-Hartley law injunction.

Castro Cites Fire-Bombing

HAVANA, Oct. 26--Prime Minister Fidel Castro, in his angriest speech speech against the United States, tonight charged U.S. officials are impotently permitting planes to bomb Cuba from American soil.

He claimed an unidentified light plane this afternoon dropped an incendiary bomb on a sugar mill in western Cuba and burned a house down.

Castro previously has shown extreme irritation with anti-Castro leaflet raids carried out from Florida since last mid-week and attributed to a former Cuban air force chief. This time he specifically charged a fire-bombing occurred.

The bearded revolutionary chief addressed a giant rally of Cubans gathered outside the presidential palace.
