He also attacked the ruling for
keeping the college out of NA1A
championships. He declared:
1--WE (Northeast) had a chance
to win the NAIA for two years.
We didn't go because people in the
South thought we shouldn't run
against colored people" The people
to whom he referred were obvious
ly the Louisiana legislators who
passed a law several years ago
banning interracial boxing in
sports.

with the policy, saying he had re-
manned silent about it for years
but now feels he must speak out

Perkins Knocks Out
Young" Ring Veteran

Philadelphia (ANP) - EDDIE
Perkins, 1877 pound lightweight
challenger from Chicago, scored an
eight-round technical knockout
over Mel Middleton, $50, Phila-
delphia, in their scheduled 10 round
bout here last week.
Middleton, who has fought and
trained since he was eight years
old, was described as ring vet

Anyway, he was no match for
the sharp-shooting Perkins, who
was in command all the way and
floored him for an eight count in
the third round. He also opened a
cut over Middleton's eye in the
sixth.

Whether you're getting ready

vate a lawn in poor condition,
there is an alternative to cement
and paint.
Studies show that in some
areas up to 800 of the lawns
are seeded with the wrong
grasses. Actually, turf authori-
ties recommend mixtures of
permanent grasses over a sim
gle grass, especially for Spring.
Mixtures of at least 40%
Merton Bluegrass with other
improved grasses, give the best
results - thicker turf, greater
weed and disease resistance, a
beautiful green all summer
long. Merton is more economical
too - one pound of it's small

lateral action by the u. S. would
damage our position in Latin America
and that failure to line up u. N. sup
port would weaken the structure of
the world organization.
Actually the results were just the
opposite. Mr.. Kennedy used his
knowledge as a practical working
politician in an important cause. He
sized up the effect of his actions on
the government leaders-that is, poll
ticians-of other countries. His ap-
praisal was correct and the course
he followed made it possible to line
up almost unanimous support.
He did not ask them to vote on
what we should do, nor for further
debate. He felt they would under
stand what we had to do-and they
did. They were confronted with in
controvertible evidence of the Soviet
Build-up. Adlai Stevenson demanded
from Valerian Zorin a Eyes or no"
answer as to whether there were Of
fensive weapons on Cuban soil.
Khrushchev's bland admission that
there were such weapons ended the
The Latin leaders did not
have to argue with noisy home-front
Communists about what course they
should follow. Many Latin leaders
have privately acknowledged that
they are comfortable under the pro-
lection of the American umbrella,
but they never would say it publicly.
BY his decisiveness Mr.. Kennedy
has given aid and comfort to the
democratic leadership of Latin
America. He has given the Alliance
for Progress a new lease on life.
But it was his proper-and re-
strained-use of Americas power
that really impressed them.

Leadership By A Democracy

WASHINGTON, d. C.-The third
week of October, 1862 was turning
point for the U. S. and the world.
Once Mr.. Kennedy started to move
(on the Cuban missile crises), he was
sure-footed. The results have been
better, up to now, than we had any
reason to expect they would be in
the summer and early fall.
Why was Mr.. Kennedy able to
bring about such reversal in a rap
idly deteriorating situation?
The answer is that he seems to
have clearly defined in his own mind
what constituted the national inter
est. Our policy became, "What's good
for America is good for the rest of
the world" Even leftist politicians
in Brazil suddenly awakened to the
meaning of the Soviet presence in
the Caribbean.
Our national interest, of course,
was easily defined. There were So
Wet troops 80 miles off our shores,
ready to aim intermediate and long
range missiles at our major cities and
the Panama Canal. While some critics
may claim that Mr.. Kennedy was
among the last to realize that our
security was imperiled, the fact is
that he moved in time.
The timing was brilliant, even if
some of the earlier Administration
comments seemed foolish. Almost as
much as "firmness". the proper tim
ing helped produce the salutary re-
suits.
1t is no secret that some presi-
Dental advisors were worried when |
Mr.. Kennedy by-passed the Organiza-
ton of American States and the
United Nations in the first phases of
the operation. They feared that uni

Bury notwithstanding

WASHINGTON, d. C.-(CNS)-
Mrs. Consumer who buys on credit
and Mr.. Consumer who borrows
money from small loan company
were both losers when a Senate bank
ing subcommittee defeated the truth
intending bill here last month.
The bill, sponsored by Senator Paul
Douglas (D-Ill.) was endorsed by
President Kennedy in his March con-
sumer-protection message to Con-
gress. 1t would have required that on
installment purchases and other credit
contracts the interest charges be
shown in dollars and as a simple an
nual percentage rate on the unpaid
balance.
Chief opposition came from Ma
tional Retail Merchants Association.
Senator Wallace Bennett (R-Utah),
car dealer and head of a retail
store, led the opposition in commit
tee. Voting with him were Senators
Glenn Beall (R-Md.), Prescott Bush
(R-Conn.), Homer Capehart (R-
Ind.) and Willis Robertson (D-Va.).
Supporting it were Senators Doug
las, Joseph Clark (D-Pa.), William
Proxmire (D-Wis.), and Harrison
Williams (D-N.J). Senator Edmund
Muskie (D-Maine) was absent.

Cock-Eyed Conjectures
Concerning Cuban Crisis

The big-mouthed apo1ogists for cold
war capitalism are e1ated over what
they call a major diplomatic victory
of the Cuban crisis. To these social
idiots, the fact that Khrushchev agreed
to dismantle the missiles and return
them to Russia simply means complete
victory for the principle of positions
of siren 9Th. The more vulgar just
say, 81 guess we showed him.. We are
very proud of our great military might
There are far too many of us who are
only disappointed because the fruits
of winning a fighting victory We're
denied us by Mr.. ks diplomatic sur
render.
1t is extremely dangerous to be proud
of the tools of death and destruction.
They are simply the tools of fear and
hatred and error. They are the devil
dogs of death and destruction. 1T were
much better to let these sleeping dogs
lie and sleep than to awaken them and
say "sic-em"
1t has been rightly said that faith
without works is dead. The same is
true of fear. The military Frank enstein,
if not truly dead, is at least better
sleeping. There is no cause for pride
in the works of fear. The great ex-
which united the American
people as faith could never do, was
fear The faith In our society and it's
pletely lacking. Every effort to bolster
this faith has yielded TO fear. The al
liances for progress, the military ALI
ances and even our own small token
toward civil rights have all
been inspired, not by faith. but by
fear.
We do. not compare our activity with
a superior goal in which we have faith.
We only fear for our prestige and pos
ture before the world. Our only goal
is to beat the Russians. Since all
evidence points to the fact that the

REGINA, Sask.-(CNS)-One of
Canada's biggest home-owned indus
tries is coop that has 2A % of the
country's total petroleum refining
capacity.
H. L. Fowler, president of FEEDER
ated Co-operatives, reports that %
of Canada's petroleum refining will
soon be foreign-controlled. Four COM
panies will account for $3.50 of this,
he thinks. Only $50 of Canada's re-
filming will be Canadian-owned, and
half of this is the co-op's, Fowler
points out.
Consumers Coop Refineries with
its plant here is owned by $50 retail
co-ops in the prairie provinces.
Retail consumer co-ops are
noted for helping keep money in
the communities where they oper-
ate by returning surpluses to men,
bers through refunds" Fowler said
here. "When these retail co-ops
together own their own factories,
such as the coop refinery, they
provide means of keeping Cana
dian-produced wealth in Canada"

Government Controlled
Agriculture Necessary

Editor, The Peoples Voice:
Farmers must have government con-
troll in agriculture programs in order
to be able to continue farming. We
hear so much opposition to the agri-
culture farm program but the oppo-
nents are not really farmers.
Back in the early part of May this
year there was a conference held at
Helena lit was headed Farmers Fear
For the Future. The main speaker
was c. L. Purdy, agriculture commits
sioner of Montana, and he was followed
by w. A. DEwart and Henry f. Will
son, president of the Farm Bureau, an
organization which is sponsored by
special group is not all farmer mem
bers, and is not from the grassroots.
Mr.. Purdy said he favored gradually
getting the government out of farm
ing. Now what is the meaning of this?
AS I see it, it is going back to free
enterprise open market for all farm
produce. and let supply and demand
set the price which has failed for many
years. During my time in farming, free
enterprise without farm controls did
not give farmers the cost of producing
a crop. Let's go back to the l930's when
there was no agriculture program.
just what set the price of produce?
1t was ruled by supply and demand.
1t is said we never had over-supply
until the farm program became eHdcteo
into law. We had an over production
way back in the years 1885 to 1890.
There was big supply but not enough
demand to take UP the slack. Just go
back to 1892 bumper crop. Supply and
demand failed ito set the right price
for produce to give the cost of pro-
duction I sold wheat for rs cents
bushel; hogs for $1.70 per W.T.; cattle
at $500 per CWT; beets at $3.50 per
ton. These were marketed under a
FREE enterprise open market, with no
government control.
Since Mr.. Purdy claims to be wheat
farmer I would like to ask If he can
produce wheat for $25 bushel.
There is much criticism about the
present Democratic Administration |
Back in 1888, law was enacted to
bring electric power to all farms, which
was badly needed by all farmers, also
a law to guarantee bank deposits.
These were laws enacted by Demo-
cratic Administration under President |
Franklin d. Roosevelt.
Many other laws were enacted by
former Democratic administrations for
the benefit of all the people.-A. f.

be more fitting to say that the pur-
pose of the blockade is to stop Rus
STA from aiding Cuba to defend herself
against aggression.
1t seems to me as though the cry,
they're only go miles from our shores
is rather an absurd excuse for our
movements in Cuba. 1t also strikes me
the U. S., who has bases of defense all
around the world, even in Cuba, and
within 20 miles of Russia, should feel,
that it has any right to blockade an
independent nation no matter where
it is located.
Yes, this was a wonderful campaign
weapon, it has put a majority of the

to the Cuban situation. 1t will be a

NV "Two-Bit's Worth

| Several friends and acquaintance
| have asked me what L think of tht
present situation in regard to the So
Wet 4Castro-U. S. matter so I make
\ this reply.
| Kennedy took the only wise course
| he could have taken under the circum-
stances which also had the effect OF
removing the Cuban situation as a
campaign issue. However there is one
angle which has been disregarded or
overlooked by the commentators which
/ wish to point out and that is K.hrush-
chev's diplomacy.
While do not admire Khrushchev
still cOncede his ability i'm smooth
diplomacy and i believe he created
deliberately a situation which was to
his advantage in either of two ways.
He created situation from which he
could gracefully withdraw if it became
necessary, thus giving him added pres
tige as a lover of peace or If the Soviet
missile bases in Cuba were permitted
to remain the Soviets would have a
short range striking weapon if the
need arose. ,.-f. ~
Offering to withdraw the bases
would create the impression that
he desired to avoid war and we can
be sure that he does, for no responsible
leader cares to plunge the world into
such holocaust as atomic war would
create. If on the Eother hand no u. S.
objection was raised and the bases re-
NAMED he could point to that fact that
the Soviets had bases near the U. S.
as the u. S. has for years held bases
within short distances of Russia.
This would create among the Soviets
am impression of him as an intelligent
leader.
Also Castro would be advantaged by
the securing of an official pledge from
the U. S. A. that Cuba would not be
invaded This, however, would only be
a reiteration of the pledge in the treaty
of the GAS. to which the U. S. is a
signatory, and by which each nation
pledges itself not to interfere in the
internal affairs of either of the other
nations. -
AS we know Castro continually as
serted that the U. S. planned an in
vasion of Cuba prior to the BAY of
Pig'' attack Our news media denied
it but subsequent events indicated
Castro was telling the truth. Kennedy's
refusal to permit u. S. Air Force to
participatenin that affair was a wise
move.
Now with an additional pledge from
the U. S. that we will not attempt
Cuban invasion, one of ICastro's chief
has been removed further
adding to the respect in which Khrush-
chew will be held. s..r
AS to other developments or demands
well worthy of close watching. 1t is
