The Lark for miles and miles with peak performance, whether you drive
the spirited six or the super-responsive V-8. ~3 And you drive it so easily,
park it so tidily, turn it so neatly—because it’s a sensible three feet shorter
outside than conventional cars. (But plenty of room inside for six.)
And with all its economy (cuts insurance, repair and maintenance costs),
it's so richly, rightly styled, it's fashion approved by Harper's Bazaar.
And beautifully engineered. This is common sense on wheels, folks—and
about time you tried it. You can—today. Do it!

W. R. Galt Receives Second
Letter From Cuban Friend
This is the second letter
that I have received from my
friend, Dr. Luis M. Busta

attorney in Cienfuegos, Cuba.

all letters have been answer

YEAR OF THE LIBERTY
Senor William R. Galt, Jr.
Covington, Georgia
My dear Bill:
I sent you a cable on the day
of the Cuban Liberty. I sent
you the Cienfuegos newspapers
and two Bohemias, I wrote you
and I have not had your an
lrswer. What is wrong? Ilta is per;
ha; ible that you have no
recp:n?e:lss any of these? The
magazine Bohemia is publish
ing monthly the events of Cuba
during the period of the mur
derous dictator Batista. Three
numbers have already gone out
which constitute the edition of
the LIBERTY. I have sent you

in Atlanta this week as the 14th
Annual State Y.M.C.A. Youth
Assembly gets underway at the
Capitol, March 5,6, and 7. Op
erating on the same format as
the General Assembly, the
Youth Assembly gives young
leaders practical training in
government.
Administration head in this
year’s Assembly is Youth Gov
ernor Stephen Butler of Colum
bus. The Senate is under the
leadership of Lieutenant Gover
nor Harry Chapplear, Toccoa,
and President Pro-Tem Larry
Fowler, Tifton. Key figures in
the House of Representatives
are Speaker of the House Wal
ter Jones, Dalton, and Speaker
Pro-Tem Tommy Earles, Way-
Cross.
Grier Stephenson of Coving
ton is a candidate for Speaker
of the House.
The duties of the presiding
officers promise to be no easy
task as 832 youthful legislators
debate, pass, or defeat some 39
bills and resolutions submitted
for their consideration. Head
ing the list of controversial sub
jects is a bill sponsored by the
"Murray County Sr. Tri-Hi-Y to
)consolidate Georgia’s counties
;from 159 to 54. This would a
bolish the much discussed
county unit system. The Win
der Sr. Tri-Hi-Y bill to require
the parents of juvenilc offen
ders to appear as co-defendents
at the trials of their children
also promises to bring much
spirited debate.
Other interesting bills are
those submitted by Y Clubs in
Atlanta, to provide for the es
tablishment of a larger State
Budget Bureau; Waycross, to
publish the names of juvenile
offenders; Albany, to make
reckless driving a criminal of
fense: and Griffin, to provide
for a 6 year term for state sen
ators.
Highlighting the opening
events will be an address by
Governor Ernest Vandiver to a
joint session of the House and
Senate Thursday evening. This
will be followed by Youth Gov
ernor Butler's State of the State
message to the Assembly. -
A new Youth Governor, as
well as 10 other elected offi

able to find out what we, the
cubans, have undergone in these
past seven years. You will be
able to find out that when they
econdemn one of these criminals
to death he is well condemned.
Last week there was a great
demonstration in front of the
presidental palace (in Havana)
to support the revolutionary
government and to continue the
revolutionary trials against the
Batista murderers. There werel
A MILLION AND A HALF
PERSONS and was the largest
that had ever been in Cuba.
I know that in the United
States they are criticising the
trials that they are holding in
Cuba. Bill, you are democratic
and I am sure that after you
read my letters and the maga
zines that I send you you will
in agreement with these trials.
Write me and tell me what you
think and when you talk with
your compatriots tell them what
the magazine Bohemia says a
bout the things that have hap
pened in Cuba.
Bill, do not fail to believe
that Batista is a criminal, he
iis a thief and those who were
with him were also thieves and
murderers. Our Revolutionary
Government is democratic and
do not fail to believe that we
are against Communism, we do
not want Communism. Fidel
Castro is not a Communist and
is not even sympathetic with
the Communists. That was said
by the murderous dictator Ba
tista so that you would help
him.
Here in Cuba, nowadays there
is happiness, now one can go
anywhere and at all hours of
the day or night, now there is
no danger of getting killed by
the police of the murderous dic
tator ~ . . There is happiness
in our town after seven years of
dictatorship.
Here it is said that the mur
derous dictator Batista will live
in the United States at Daytona
Beach. He has a house, Bill.
When the opportunity presents
itself protest that Americans
will not have that stain seeking
shelter here. Bill, you have been
in Cuba and you know ousr
people. We are a country lover
of liberty and anti-communist,
the Americans are brothers,
here we do not hate the Amer
