HAVANA. Jan. 19 (AP)-Fi-
del Castro's government an
nounced today it is holding six
Americans accused of sailing
TO Cuba January Z to join
counterrevolutionary forces S
here.
The announcement said all
six we're seized in Havana the
day after they made a pact
in Florida with a Castro foe,
former senator Rolando Mas
ferrer, to join other dissidents
trying to overthrow the Castro
regime.
Several Americans were ex-
ecuted by Castro firing squads
late last year after they were
captured with invasion"
groups in Cuba.
The announcement identified
the six as George r. Beck, "a,
son of George Beck. Norton.
Mass: Tommy L. Baker, %,
son Of James Baker. Dothan,
Ala; Donald Joe Green. %.
son Of James Green, Glover,
S. c.; James E. Beane, "a, son
Of Anderson Beane, Cedar Falls,
N. c.; Alfred Eugene Gibson,
Durham, N. c., a former avia-
ton mechanic, and Leonard
Louis Schmidt. 81, son of
Leonard Schmidt, Chicago.
Missed Intended Goal
The account said the six
sailed from Marathon Key, Fla,
with q refueling stop at Key
West January 6 after under
going training at the Masferrer
anti-Qastro training camp in
Florida. ?
Because of poor navigation
and bad weather." the an
nouncement said, "the group,
which came equipped with
arms, missed its intended
landfall at Pinar del Rio where
it had been ordered to join in
surgent groups. and decided to
enter Havana Harbor after
throwing overheard all arms,
munitions and equipment.
AT first the six Americans
claimed they came to help the
Cuban government repulse an
invasion from the United
States" the announcement
said. But a magazine was
found on board with photos Of
Baker taken with other Amer
leans at Masferrer's home in
Miami which said the group
had enlisted to overthrow

MANILA, Jan. 10 (AP) The
foreign ministers Of four anti
Communist Asian nations de-
clared today they are firmly
against the admission of Red
China to the United Nations.

serve its territorial and political
integrity"
mo free territory can be
surrendered to any aggressor
without inviting further ag-
gression to other free areas OF

nique added.
This presumably referred not

offshore islands Of Quemoy and
Matsu. which the Chinese Ma

on keeping.
The four countries called for
a solution in Laos that would

Yankee Slugger Mantle
Gets a Salary Boost

NEW YORK Up = Yankee slug
ger Mickey Mantle today signed
his 1861 contract for about SIS, 900,
making him the highest paid
player in the American League.
The 31-year-old home run king
received big boost in pay for
his part in the New York teams
drive to the American League
Pennant.
No figures were released by the
club but it was understood the
famed sWitch-hitter had received
$4,000 pay increase over last
year, making his salary for the
coming season $4,000.
He had been cut $1,000 last
year. This not only restored the
cut, sore spot with Mantle, but
lifted him to higher bracket.
Mantle hit only 275 last sea-
son but he led the league with
40 home runs and was a big star
in the World Series.

to letter from your city clerk
for copy of their charter, see
how it fits your needs, take the
best out of each and apply it
to your own needs and you will
be off to a good start.
The following cities are Home
Rule Charter Cities: Anchorage,
Fairbanks, Cordova, Juneau, Ket-
chikan, Petersburg, Seward, Sitka
and Wrangell. A City Home Rule
Charter would not require too
much modification in order to
serve as a Borough Home Rule
Charter, only redrafted to include
those services in the larger area.
These cities have all had the
experience of electing Charter
Commission, of drafting a charter,
and of seeing it function. They
will have big head start on other
areas when the machinery has
been adopted for the Organized
Borough. Now is the time to act.
There is no time to lose. Cities
of the second, third or fourth
class should make an immediate
effort to achieve first class status
There are ID first class cities in
Alaska, other than the Home Rule
Charter Cities. One of these has
less than 100 population, four
have less than 800 population, six
have less than 500 population,
and eleven of them have less
than 1000 population. No city is
too small to strive for better gov
eminent than they currently have.
