A government commission is recommending to President George Bush a series of measures to cut dollar flows to Cuba as part of a broader policy to hasten the end of the country’s communist system.

A commission report, in preparation for six months and overseen by Secretary of State Colin Powell, also calls for steps to overcome Cuban jamming of US government-sponsored radio and television broadcasts to Cuba, an official said.

He said the report urges increased support for Cuban dissidents and families of political prisoners and also calls for measures to encourage foreign governments to distance themselves from the Cuban regime.
