This paper reports that plagued by his worst fuel crisis in years, Cuban President Fidel Castro late last year began soliciting foreign help in the country's exploration efforts. What is particularly new about this initiative is that the invitation was directed toward capitalist Western nations, as opposed to previous help supplied by the Soviet Union. Castro's sudden change of attitude has been spurred by the continuing shortfall in oil deliveries from the USSR, symptomatic of the latter's own production problems.
