It has been suggested, probably with much
truth, that Cuba, after Fidel Castro delivered
it to the Communists, experienced a more and
more sagging economy plus mounting unrest

for all grades, a
world that most of us don't worry about it any
more, but the fact is it could cause the out-
break of a shooting war at almost any time.
Just last week it became known publicly
that massive supplies, including military, are
being shipped from Russia to Cuba, which is
right at Uncle Sam's back door. Shipment of
materials has been accompanied with impor-
tation of 3,000 to 5,000 "technicians."
A number of excuses may be urged in be-
half of Russia, none of them making sense
except to a Communist. Thus it may be
said that around some of the borders of Rus-
sia are small countries which have been given
some American military aid to help them pre-
serve their freedom, and this is essentially
what Russia is doing in the case of Cuba. This
of.course ignores the fact the United States
immediately after World War II adopted a
policy of not opposing Russian imperialism,
with the result the Communists enslaved Po-
land, Czechoslovakia, Hungary and a lot of
other countries and would have continued
gobbling up the rest of the world if U. S• policy
hadn't been changed. By the same token it
ignores the fact the United States wrested
Cuba from Spanish imperialism in 1898 and
presented Cuba with its independence--no
strings attached. The United States could
have kept Cuba in its own possession, or it
could have conquered it at any time. Anyone
who sees a similarity between Cuba's relation-
ship with the United States and, say, Turkey's
relationship with Russia is completely un-
realistic. It makes about as much sense as
the Kremlin's argument that the United States
invented the atom bomb and made and tested

there is one. Or something or somebody on
the coast of Florida. Or suppose such an
incident is arranged, somehow, by one or
more anti-Castro Cubans. It is much easier
to get a war started than to get it stopped

On the night of August 31, 1939, a band
of Germane dressed in Polish army uniforms
attacked a German radio station near Gleiwitz
on the German-Polish border, left several
corpses on the place, recited a defiant speech
in Polish into the microphone and fired sev-
eral shots that could be heard over the air.
This was used by Adolph Hitler as an excuse
of insurance. Claims will be hand-
led by the parents and doctors and
hospital.
In the past school year, 276
accident claims involving 9 per
cent of district pupils, were filed.
The average claim payment was
$45, although two claims exceed-
led $1,000. The district feels that

generously to Proposition 4, he
said.
