No End to Our Troubles
H > hay© just SQI Our wife bapk home from Menwriai ■
..Hospital in Savannah where she underwent a major opera-
Wi. but it now Ipqks as if she will soon be better than she
has been in a long' time. If we get through with all the bills
for this trip to the hospital we will be happy. But we feel
tnatsHyvas worth eye^ : dollar ami then some 11 ha- .
, , .JTKeri last week, while trying to lift a heavy form oil'
of bt^’ pr|ss, jSomStmhg that we had been ^hrnecl against,
but not wishing to bother any ope, the form -lipped and
qsune wfth a hM of ciitting two fingers off of om right hand,
tynich has crippled us very much. Being a diabetic we have
been having to be extra careful with this.
Then last, but by no means least, on Sunday afternoon
late our associate Editor Elisabeth Medders came to the home
ani^tbld us that they had called her from For' Stewart and
offered ,a place and that she was going to work there
Monday morning. Saying that she would help out in any
way until we could get adjusted that she could.
During the years we have leaned on Mrs. Medders a
great deal, she has been faithful and loyal, and now with ail
of. our troubles to have her leave us, it has more or loss
knocked us out.
.u.- We wish her the best of everything in li'er new quest'hhd
fyel sure .that she wip rpake good. She has the ability to do
anyXning thatsbe sets her mind to do. We are’going Hi miss
her,, it is a major blow to us, but somehow We will 'wrrlt'
through, and it may be best for all concerned that things
have happened x as Uj^y have.
, We. ask jpiir friends Jo bear with us’iii tin meahtiUe,
with an ailing wife, a cripple hand, and a shortage of help
things are-going to be rough on the old man.

A Major Victory for Kennedy
, The handling of the Cuban situation, (as of today) appears to
be a major victory for President Kennedy and his advisors, And
what,looked like almost a certain war, possibly a war with all the
atojp. bombs, was in, prospect, but when our President took the
he did. after having gotten positive information that hp had
Pie goods on Russia and put the war ships around the Cuban waters
i with orders to stop ALL ships, and those failing to stop, to sink
.them, and also demanded of Russia the removal of the missile
bases, etc., from Cuban soil, which they at first denied as being
there. But President Kennedy and Secretary of the U. N. Adlai
Stevenson stood their ground and as a result Hie Russian Premier
has agreed to remove all the missiles at once and carry them back
to Russia. This is a.start in the right direction, and it i< possible
that if we follow up our cause that much can be done to save
future civilization and stop the awful spectre of war with Russia.
The world i« big enough for the two of its, and there > no reason
why we can’t get along.
Castro "The Forgotten Man"
When Russia agreed to reinove the missile ba.-- eta,'out of;
.Cuba and take them home, he did not both to consult Fidel ( astro :
about jt. In (act it looks as if Castro played second fiddle to mo-1 I
of all jhe proceedings, and it may be that he is playing hi last
tune. The quicker the better for Cuba and the world at large
