On The Job . . .
AYLESBURY, England, W —
David Hillier was his father’s
right-hand man and when he got
drafted into the army the town
council could find no one to fill
his job.
That worried David Hillier. The
worry preyed on his mind.
It wasn’t long before Pvt. Hill
ier went A.W.O.L.
He came back to Aplesbury and
for 10 days toiled manfully with
a spade that went with his old
job
Then the army caught up with
him and sentenced him to 28 days
detention.
The Ayelsbury town council is
pressing for Hillier’s release,
claiming his absence causes them
“grave difficulty.”
Said Arthur Hillier, David’s
father: “I realize my son did
wrong in coming home like this,
but he felt he owed it to the
community.”
Looking out over the 15,776
graves in te Aylesbury cemetery
of which he is the superintendent
the elder Hillier added: “It may
sound odd to some people that
gravediggers take as much pride
in their work as anyone else.
“David can dig a beautiful
grave.”

Brother Raul Hails
Moscow Pledge
Of Aid to Cuba
HAVANA, UPl—Haul Castro left
no doubt Cuba has moved solid
ly into the Soviet economic camp
as he welcomed Moscow’s aid of
fers and hurled defiance at any
objectors. He also hailed Soviet
pledges of military support.
“We don’t have to fear an ec
onomic blockade,” the younger
brother of Prime Minister Fidel
Castro declared in a midnight
speech that ran nearly three
hours. “They (the Soviets! buy
all that we sell them and they
sell us what we need.”
Appearing on Fidel’s usual Fri
day night TV spot, the peppery
defense minister aimed a slap at
the Organization of American
States which is slated to meet
Aug. 16 to discuss Soviet inter
ference in the Western Hemi
sphere and other problems.
Fresh from visits to Moscow
and Prague, he said Soviet and
Czechoslovak officials had pro
mised him that all Cuba orders
would get top priority. He implied
this meant military material as
well as other goods.
No strings were attached to
Soviet aid offers, he declared,
adding that the United States had
never given help without de
manding concession.
Castro blasted the U.S. capi
talistic system which he said de
mands that Americans “throw
food into the sea” to maintain
prices, rather than share it with
the world’s starving millions.

A Concrete Example
Of What Not to do
With a Load of Ready-Mix
DENVER, Colo., OR—Joe Nel
son is going to get a 1948 model
automobile to replace his 1946 car
which Bob Porter filled with wet
concrete.
Also he’s going to get another
load of concrete for the driveway
he plans to build.
Joe’s old car is going to be dis
played by the cement company
with a sign reading, “We Pour
Cement Anywhere.”
Joe and Bob shook hands and
agreed to let bygone be bygones.
The happy ending wound up
today an incident which started
when Nelson ordered the concrete
and it was delivered by Porter.
Nelson wasn’t home. He claims he
cancelled the order several hours
before the delivery. The company
says he didn’t. Porter suspected a
joke because he had just won a
$20 bet from Joe.
“I guess I just blew my stack,”
the truck driver said. He dumped
the load—all six tons of it—in
the back seat of Nelson’s car.
Mrs. Nelson commented: “We’d
have enough money to buy a new
car if we charged admission for
all the people who come to see
the car.”
Ronnie Stewart, Porter’s boss,
saw possibilities in the situation
and came up with the peace plan,
agreeing to finance the whole
thing. He isn’t even mad at the
driver, explaining, “I'm not sure
I wouldn’t have done the same
thing myself.”
He did give the driver a talking
too, though, about dumping the
cement.
Said the driver: “The boss told
me, ‘Porter—you know this isn’t
company policy’.”
Grocery Shippers Cut
Alaska Freight Rate
ANCHORAGE, CP — A freight
rate reduction of 9 cents per hun
dred pounds on grocery shipments
to Alaska will be put into effect
Aug. 19 by Puget Sound Alaska
Van Lines, George Hutton, Alaska
manager for the firm, said here.
The rate cut will apply to major
grocery items like canned and
bottled goods, and also to beer
and liquor, he said.
Hutton said a report from Ju
neau published Friday of a 9 per
cent reduction was in error. “The
9 cent cut amounts to about a
5 per cent reduction,” he said,
“not 9 per cent.”
The reduction, Hutton said,
was made possible by the ship
ping firm’s modern equipment,
including both its vans and new
6,000-ton barges built and laun
ched last year, plus “good support
from the Alaskan people.”
Nixon vs. Kennedy
DEMING, N.M., CP—Nixon and
Kennedy are running for the hon
orary title of Mayor of Sage, an
industrial area east of here.
T.E. Nixon is campaigning on
the Do Ri^ht ticket. Jack Ken
nedy’s is the Sewer ticket. Nei
ther is related to the candidates
for U.S. President.
