In fact. a strong case can be made that the constant menacing by Uncle Sam has been used very effectively by Castro to divert the attention of the Cuban people from the shortcomings of his own Government and his own policies. Mr. President. this administration has been slow to face the need to change in our policy toward Cuba. But last week. we hopefully saw the beginning of a more rational policy toward that nation. Last week. the administration announced that in the future. illegal immigrants from Cuba will be treated as other illegal immigrants into this country. and I for one hope that more steps will follow. For example. as I stated here in the Senate several weeks ago. I believe the President should act to end the travel ban on Americans who wish to travel to Cuba.
