Angry CAMERON Delegate
In U.N. Accuses Ghana
Of Working For Russia

UNITED NATIONS, NY, u
An angry representative of Cam
Groom, one of the new African
countries, today accused Ghana of
working with the Soviet Union to
set up a Communist regime in
the Congo.
The delegate, Charles Okala,
told the Donation General As
sembly that the Communists were
using Ghana as a brideghead in
Africa. He warned that the Con-
go problem was "a purely African
affair."
Ghana's Alex Quaison Sackey
retorted that his country did not
take dictation from anyone =
either the Western powers or the
Soviet Union.
He accused Okala of "bad taste
and supplementary" behavior.
Okala had taken the floor to
reply to charges by Soviet Dep
uty Foreign Minister Valerian A.
Zorin that CAMERON was the
lackey of some unidentified
power.
The CAMERON delegate told
Quaison-Sackey that when he had
addressed some remarks to Ghana
he had expected an answer from
an African, and not from the So
Wet Union.
"Your master spilled the beans"
Okala said.
The aim of the Ghana-Soviet
efforts, he said, is to set up "Zor-
in Quaison-Sackey Incorporated,
with headquarters in Leopold
vile, and I leave it to you to
determine who will be the boss"
The exchange took place dur
ing debate on recommendation
of the Credentials Committee that
the Assembly seat a delegation
headed by President Joseph Kasa-
vubu. The opposition was making
last ditch effort to block such
action.

Many Communities
Vote Down FluOridatiOn

NEW YORK, R -Fluoridated
water went down the drain last
week for most communities vot-
ing on this controversial dental
health issue.
Sponsors of such legislation say
that fluoride added to the water
supply helps safely to prevent
tooth decay, while opponents say
the procedure is unsafe, or doubt
full in results, represents mass
medication, or raise other objec-
tons.
An Associated Press survey
found ID communities on Nov. 8
rejected proposals to fluoridate
water The survey did not find
any towns voting in favor.
The largest city defeating fluor-
idation at the polls was Cincin-
natl, where the measure failed
for the second time in 7 years.
AS of Aug. 2 this year, Public
Health officials reported nearly
441a million persons were drink
ing fluoridated water in 1885
communities, compared with
about III million in 10 commun-
! tiles 10 years earlier.
Fluorides had been added to the
water in 1882 communities serv-
ing 3712 million persons, while
the rest had naturally fluoridated
water.

State Dept. Asserts
Cuba Amasses
Huge Arsenal

WASHINGTON, Up = us. Of
ficials pictured Cuba as building
up a huge arsenal of Soviet bloc
military weapons to arm revolu-
tionary movements throughout
the Caribbean area.
The State Department announ-
ced Friday night that according
to the best available information
the government of Cuban Prime
Minister Fidel Castro already
has imported $4,000 tons of arms
from the Soviet bloc, including
tanks, guns and eight MIG jet
fighters. The department said
shipments also included about
5000 tons, of assorted ammunition
in addition to almost 46 million
rounds of rifle, machinegun and
artillery ammunition previously
obtained by Castro from non
Communist sources.
According to the departments
figures, Castro has received to-
tai of $4,000 automatic rifles, in
Guiding $4,000 from Communist
Czechslovakia; 10000 submachine
guns; a variety of heavier wea-
pons and 10 Soviet helicopters.
The State Department said Cas-
tro now has the largest army in
Latin America. His militia was
put at 100000 persons and of
ficials estimated that his regular
army totals 10000.
The Soviet Union and Red
China are cooperating in the sup
ply of arms to Castro, the State
Department said, because they
apparently desire to contribute
to Caribbean tensions by burden
ing the Cuban economy with ex-
cessive arms purchases and by
supporting the aggressive policies
of the Cuban prime minister"
Washington officials expressed
the hope that disclosure of the
Cuban arms information, evident
ly obtained from intelligence
sources, would alert other nations
throughout the hemisphere to the
dangers of serious Communist
directed trouble making by Cas-
tro which are foreseen here.

GOLD -.
Continued from Page One)

NOOIlllilUGu Ii OlIl L ctSC ollG)
This doesn't mean however, that
the current anxiety over Uncle
Sans persistent loss of gold is
misplaced. The simple fact is that
foreigners could cause a major
crisis merely by exchanging
relatively small portion of their
dollars for gold in the span of
few days.
If foreigners bought 81 billion
of us. gold in a single week, this
would be taken as vote of "no
confidence" in the dollar. Per
haps even a lesser amount would
turn the tide.
1t is this possibility which last
week prompted President Eisen-
hover to impose unprecedented
restrictions on spending abroad
under the military and foreign
aid programs. His aim was to
lessen the number of dollars NOV
ing into foreign hands; dollars
that could be used to buy Ameri-
can gold.
Since July l, foreigners have
been buying American gold at the
rate of 1913 billion year. Since
Aug l, they have been ordering
at an annual pace of SAL billion.
Since Sept. /, the rate has risen
to SAT- billion. Since Oct. |, the
flow of bullion has hit a spec
tacular annual rate of $50 billion.
Compare this buying with the
remaining us. gold supply: $18
billion of which $11.5 billion
must, by law, remain in govern
ment hands as backing for part
of the money supply.
1t wouldn't take long to use up
the cushion available for meeting
foreign orders. And once Uncle
Sam had to turn away customers,
the dollar would no longer be as
good as gold.
At this point, large gold pur-
chases over short span of time
would add to the existing uncer-
tainty = would threaten to I'M
leash forces that could shatter
the free worlds financial system
And why would friends ever do
such a thing, especially since they
would suffer too, in the end.
Why did millions of solid Am
erican citizens run trembling to
their banks after 1929?
Putting it plainly, they lost con-
fidence in the banking system.
1t was to butress confidence that
Eisenhower acted last week. He
wanted to show the world that
the United States is aware of it's
problem and is not afraid to do
something about it; that it will
defend the free worlds stake in
the stability of the dollar.

Red Hair Coming Into
Vogue In Japan

TOKYO, Up = Thousands of
Japanese women are dyeing their
hair red. So many, that the ma
tionwide newspaper Mainichi took
up the matter in an editorial
column.
Except for a limited few, we
do not believe that reddish-brown
hair becomes Japanese women!"
it said.
A u. STRAINED Japanese hair
dresser, Miss Kyoko Mano, ex-
pressed this opinion:
"a shade of auburn suits the
complexion of Japanese women
quite we'll. 1t makes the hair light
er and softer"
Ten years ago a suggestion that
women here should dye their hair
would have been laughed down as
ridiculous and socially degrading
although middle-aged women
since feudal days used dye to re-
store CRAVING hair to the jet black
nature originally bestowed.

Wrong Virtues Being Taught Youth

DOROTHY Thompson, in recent ar
tice on the faulty education of
American youth, pointed out that the
young people of this country have been
taught the wrong virtues

wishes, of tolerance and forbearance
Drummed into the heads of youth is the
notion that pride is false virtue and
that one should be prepared to 60 more
than half way to appease another indi-
vidual.
These are virtues which have place,
but limited place, in life. Patience is
fine up to point. Tolerance is valuable
as a check on Incorporate action. But
stressing these essentially negative
virtues has damaged the moral fiber Of
our country.
he high virtues are courage, honesty,
independence, boldness and resolute CON
victions. These are the virtues lacking
from public life in the United States.
Few voices tell young people they must
struggle manfully against the nations
enemies, that they must never willing
ly accept coexistance with an evil sys-
tenn of communism, and they must do
their untmost to push the enemy back
into his corner, Aggressive defense of
the interests Of the United States is pre-
sented almost as bad form.
The criticism of normal, healthy pride
causes lack of self-esteem without
which an individual lacks dignity that
creates respect Many people today
don't have any idea Of the meaning of
self-esteem. This is one of the reasons
why the United States is having trouble
in Latin lands. South and Central
Americans have strong concept of per
sonal dignity. They resent the idea that
they can be bought with foreign aid pro-
grams. They regard American appease-
