SOCIAL SECURITY MEETING
IN HYDE COUNTY FEB. 10

The people of Hyde County
farmers, widows, children, and the
disabled received large amount
of money in Social Security bene-
fits last year. Greater benefits may
be available, but many of farm
people need to take action to pro-
tect their rights. It is no longer
possible for a farmer to wait I'M
till he is IS years old or disabled,
or until he dies to get his Social
Security account in order.
Practically every tenant came
under Social Security in 1866.
Some over 65 have started receiv-
ing their checks. Social Security
also affects the younger farmers
however, a large number of farm
ers have not yet reported their
1856 self-elnployment income, nor
paid their Social Security taxes for
1856 and later years.
To help you understand the eff
feet of Social Security has on all,
a Social Security meeting will be
held in the Courthouse at Swan
Quarter on February 10 at 1880
pm. with Robert S. Green. Field
Representative.

RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THINGS

T ENERAL JOHN MICHAELIS predicted in a O cent speech in Anchorage that "the Arctic Ocean is the Mediterranean of the world here in Alaska we are to with the cold war. 1 don't agree with those who say Alaska isn't right in the middle of things"
 Gen. Michaelis stands out among military lead CTS with many citations earned during the Korean War He is convinced that Alaska is strategic to the defense of the free world
 It is heartening and encouraging to Alaskans to find there leaders stationed in Alaska who think along the lines of the people who live here
 America aways fights defensive War-some of it's deenses and it's fences should be along the borders of the northern part of the continent not all set back of the distant mountain range rsking the mineral re- serves of North America as invitation for attack.
 As military leaders based in Alaska return to Washington, D C., and the Pentagon maybe they can paint clearer picture of what it means to be within shouting distance of Soviet Russia

Castro Attacks
 Monroe Doctrine In 3-HOur Trade

HAVANA, R- Prime Minister Fidel Castro accused the United States Tuesday of trying to take its dispute with Cuba out of the LIN. Security Councils hands and put it before the Organization of American States because it can exert more pressure on the "vul- nerable" member nations of the inter-American group.
 Hoarse and haggard from his recent siege of pneumonia, Castro returned to " with a wide ranging three-hour blast in which he called the new US. plan of aid for Latin America a half billion-dollar bribery" designed to destroy the sympathies of the Latin American people for the Cuban revolution"
 Castro also took note of anti Communist outbursts at Roman Catholic Church services in Ha- vana in the past two days. He accused "priVileged counterreVo- lutionary" elements of trying to convert religious shrines into cen ters of conspiracy and asserted that part of the Catholic clergy in Cuba is "pro-Franco, and Fal- angiSt and reactionary."
 During one scuffle between Catholics and pro-Castro youths Monday, an American woman and her two sons were dragged from a passing car. It was the first known physical attack on Americans here since Castro took power.
 Castro called the Monroe Doc Urine ancient and Worm-eaten" and accused the United States of using it to assume the right of piracy
 Commenting on the recent wave of defections by his ambassadors, Castro accused the US. State De- partment of offering to pay off Cuban diplomats if they aban- doned the revolutionary cause.
 The victims of the mob action were Mrs. Bertha Price, and her sons Jeffrey, IS, and Richard, A.

 He said Communists would de- Stroy the nation aboard and advo- cates of a totalitarian system would destroy it from within.
 Said GoldWater-
 "There are those among us in this nation, who cherish the false notion that by accommodating the totalitarian doctrine of Commun- ism we can continue to maintain the uneasy peace we have enjoyed since the end of World War II. There are those who, when con- fronted with the ultimate choice, appear to prefer appeasement and piecemeal surrender of the rights and freedom of man."
 The senator, in a talk prepared for the Republican Convention Platform Committee, said the party must maintain the most powerful military position in the world and be willing to use it's

power to defend the rights of Am erican citizens and to preserve American property.
 On the domestic front he said the party must reject the tactics and practices of the spend-and- spend, elect-and-elect architects of the New Deal and the Fair Deal"
 He added
 "The people of this republic have not demanded federal assist ance and federal handouts"
 Welfare programs, he said have been seized upon by ambitious politicians after pressure groups brought them to the fore.
 He said these programs have divided the American people - set the young against the aged, pitted the farmer against the con- sumer, arrayed the union mem- Der against the non union mem Der.
 The difference between the Democratic and Republican par ties, GoldWater said, is that the former has given allegiance to the concept of the superstate, with it's far-reaching controls, while the latter has followed the idea that it is the duty of the govern ment to help men help them selves.
