HAVANA ÍAP)—Advince spearheads of Fidel Cisco’s revolutionary forces entered Havana today.
Truckloads of bearded guerrilla fighters rolled into the city over the main central highway from the eastern province of Matanzas and Las VUlas and sped along the Malencon Sea Boulevard toward the former military headquarters of deposed President Batista at Camp .
As the Castro forces advanced, Cuba’s 6.300,000 war-weary people had two iH*ovislonal presidents. Neither occupied the chair vacated by dictator Fulgencio Batista, who fled in the darkness of ^Uu! new year morning Thursday.
The streets of Havana were tense and alive with expectation. The triumphant Castro partisans, who had seemed to emerge armed from nowhere Thursday to take over control of U» capital, kept a
tight lid on the situation to prevent pent-up public emotion from mating a chaotic situationf Youthful, bearded Castro early today proclaimed ex-Judge Manuel Urrufcia of Oriente Province as provisional President of the republic with his temporary government in Castro’s native Santiago de Cuba. Castro apparently intends momentarily to move the government to Havana.
In this capital sits the last vestige of a shell of government named by the Junta which Batista left behind when he fled the country early New Year’s day. But ttie government had no control over either the array or the police who now get their orders from rebel leaders installed at Camp Columbia in a Havana suburb. #
Tl« Castro troops entering Havana were unopposed. They were led by the Argentine physician.
•Ernesto Guevara, and Camilo Ci-enfuefos. two of the r^l chieftain’s hard-fighting field commanders.
A final showdown obviously is near. Castro announced today he would not accept what he called a coup d’etat arranged by Batista. Thus he rejects the proviakMial govemmént which purports to be headed by Supreme Court Justice Carlos Piedrf.
Castro claimed MaJ. Gen. Eulogio Cantillo, who headed the junta left by Batista, had betrayed the revolution’s leadership by letting the chief figures of tiie Batista government escape from the -country.
While Castro’s success in his 45-month-old rebellion seemed close to complete, he still must bring his oft-proclaimed choice to Havana and install him in the presidential palace from which dictator
Fulgencio Batista fled Thursday.
To Install Urrutia in the capital. Castro ordered a mass public demonstration in Havana’s Central Park at 4 pjn. today.
The country will remain in a state of paralysis from a general strike ordei^d by Castro until Urn^ takes over In Havana.
Castro spoke Just before dawn to a hi^e crowd in Santiago the capital of easternmost Oriente province, after a parade of orators had hailed his leadership and his selection of Urrutia.
Castro said tiie road to Santiago, occupied Thursday after the defending garrison surrendered, had been a long and hard one. He called Santiago “the strongest fortress of the revolution" and said its triumph was being crowned by making It the provisional capital for some 12 hours, until he and Urrutia go to Havana.
Castro’s supporters controlled t Batista i^gime trying to run the

Peace ‘Desire’
GETTYSBURG, Pa. ÍAP)—President Eisenhower has told Russian leaders their professed desire for peace should be applied to ttieir handllhg of th«»'^^hn crisis.
He nrnde a p^nt^ reply in an exchange of New Year’s greetings with Soviet Premier Nlklte Khrushchev and President Kli-menti E. Voroshilov.
Their message, delivered to Eisenhower’s farm home near here, expressed hope ttiat 1959 would see an end to “fears of tiic dangers of a new “world war."
Eisenhower — watching a football game on television when the message came in — fired back a cablegram saying he shared the Russians* hopes. He agreed that “genuine efforts" might well be
Woman Pleads Guilty To Charge Plotting Murder
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — A tearful Greensboro social worker pleaded guilty here today of attempting to hire a Charlotte detective to slay the wife of a nten she professed to love.
Judge Pro Tern Howard Ar-buckle sentenced pretty 22-year-old Barbara Ann Massey to a 12 months suspended sentence. One of the stipulations was that she remain under the care of a psychiatrist for two years.
Miss Massey’s attorney, Welch Jordan, pleading in his client’s behalf, said, "She’s more to be pitted than censured."
The shapely ex-Wake Forest Law School student was charged with a misdemeanor, soliciting to commit a felony. The maximum sentence she could have received was two years.
After Jordan entered the guilty plea, Charlotte Detective Dick Ruth was called to the stand. He testified to events Involving the charge.
The Intended victim of the hired gun slaying, which did not come off, was to have been Mrs. Prances Smith of Greensboro, wife of Highway Patrolman “Han’some Háhsome’* Smith, who resigned from the patrol when the case broke Nov. 15 with Miss Massey’s arrest.
Several character witnesses from Greensboro appeared in behalf of the shaken Miss Massey, a pert-nosed blonde. The chracter witnesses included R. Boyd Morris, former Greensboro mayor; A. P. Routh, principal of Greens-

He went on to say: “As of this tlon of Berlin in the wider fram^ moment it seems to us critically work of toe whole German ^o1>
important to apply toe sentiments expressed in your message to toe Berlin sltuatioa. In this connection, 1 cannot fail to recall your gov-ermn»it’s declaration toward the people of Berlin,"
He referred to the Russians’ announced intention to make Berlin a free city — which would mean Western withdrawal from a key city that, in this country’s view, would then inevitably come under Communist rule.
Eisenhower said the Russians’ moves to take over Berlin "are not in accord with your expressed aspirations and hopes for peaceful coexistence.!’ •
Then Eisenhower reiterated the stand taken by the United States. Britain and Prance in formal notes delivered only Wednesday to the Kremlin. Those notes, rejecting Russia’s demand that they agree within six months to leave Berlin, suggested general conference on German problems.
“The United States government." Eisenhower said, "repeats that, in an atmosphere deyoid of any kind of coercion and threat, it would

The Russians’ note was much like one they sent last year ~ by commercial cable and telegraph directly to the President rather than through diplomatic channels. This one came the same way.
Khrushchev and Voróshitov told toe President; "We would like to express the hope that in the coming year our countries will unite their efforts In toe search for a way toward the settlement of international problems, for the cessation of the cold war which is hated by toe people, with the aim of reducing international tensions.

Social Security Is
^ -
Reported ‘Sound’
WASHINGTON (AP)-A special advisory coimcU has completed a year-long study of toe nation’s Social Security program and found it in good financial shape.
A new schedule of taxes voted by Congress last year "makes adequate provision for meeting both short-range and long-range costs,” the 13-member group said in a report made public Thursday.
The tax on both employers and employes provides insurance bene-fi': for elderly persons, survivors of workers and disabled employes. Effective Thursday, both the tax rate and the amount of salary on which it Is paid were Increased.
Other increases already in the law provide for.f further tax increases in 1960. 1963.. 1966 and 1969. The council said that under present conditions, the scheduled 1969 increase may not be needed.
The advisory group was composed of business and union leaders and experts in the fields of finance, insurance and economics Congress directed that It be named to study toe soundness of the Social Security system.
Although the fund is financially able to meet the scheduled pay-
group inflation
could make the present level of payments unsatisfactory.

The report was made to the secretarle.., of toe Trcfasury, Labor and Welfare, who are trustees for the fund. They are expected to add toeli own comments in reporting to Congress before March 1..
The advisory council said no fundamental changes In financing Social Security are needed now. But it said an increase may be needed later in the new $4,800 salary level to which the tax applies.
The system was started 21 years ago with a tax only on the first $3,000 of salary. The report said few workers then made more than that. Even toe new $4,800 level, however, taxes toe full salary of only about half of all regularly employed men, the group said.
munlsts," Batista said, referring to Tito’s World War H campaign against toe Germans and Mao Tze-tung's drive against Chiang Kai-shek’s Nationalists.
Batista’s 37,000-strong armed forces were estimated to outnumber Castro’s men perhaps 6-1 even in the last stages of the Irioody warfare that finally caused Batista to flee.
He gave left - handed praise to Castro’s bushwhacking tactics, saying the rebel chieftain got toe jump on the government by restricting his activities at ffrst to guerrilla warfare against rural soldiers not trained for that tjrpe of fighting.
He also credited Castro with superior armament, though Batista's forces had tanks and warplanes the rebels lacked. He said the rebels received a continuous flow of weapons while government troops could not be supplied.
The deposed President oontend-ed that Castro had dominated rural populations by terror.
Before this revolt, Castro’s life
record of 409 deaths set in toe four-day New Year’s week end of 1956-57 would be topped.

Traffic deaths last year, estimated at* 37,000 by the council, averaged about tOl a day. But toe slaughter on the highways since the start of toe New Year holiday count at 6 p.m. local time Wednesday topped the daily traffic toll in 1958. The count continues until midnight Sunday.
- "The weather is bad and the toll is bad.” the council said. "The toll Is proceeding at an alarming rate. We appeal to every driver to realize that he must hold his speed down and be doubly c^rt-ful."
Snow, sleet and rain in many sections of the country added to the normal heavy holiday travel Thursday and deaths took a sharp upturn after a comparatively safe start. Treacherous driving conditions were reported in many
