It is no wonder that Castro is trying to alleviate this hardship by restoring some of his profitable trade with the United States. But there is no reason why we should help him out. Before this Government even considers such a possibility. there are four conditions which should be met. First. there should be free elections in Cuba. supervised by the Organization of American States. in which all Cubans. including refugees. are permitted freely and safely to cast their ballots. Opposition parties must be permitted to present candidates and to operate. regardless of the election results. Such an election is the best longterm method of purging Cuba and this hemisphere of the Soviet and Communist domination which Castro and Guevara have brought.
