stood next to Elsie" and "symbolicly"
lighted the candles stuck in the bale.
1t was explained that they didn't
want to set fire to the hay.
A bit later the high school band in
respondent red uniforms was posi-
toned in front of the Historical Mu-
scum. The bond drive officials gave
their pitch and Gov. Nutter banged

the twenty or so stenographers and
the nine accountants observing the
hoopla were impressed.
The red scare has been very eff

E savings bond is fascinating gov
eminent document. Now everyone
has to be foolish enough to accept
greenbacks in lieu of almost anything
you can imagine. The bond can also
be accepted for pay and it will be
worth more greenbacks if you don't
spend it right away. Of course if you
wait to spend your value received the

The people of Cuba have remained
oval to the Castro government be-
ause they feel that the leadership

gently witnessed the effectiveness
f this loyalty. There is little demon
tration of official loyalty to the

Can you see any real difference
