QUICK-DRY . . .
BRADENTON. Fla. uR — House
wives, doing their washing at an
automatic laundry, weren’t too
surprised to find a raincoat-clad
mailman sitting in one of the
wating chairs during a summer
th undershower.
However, amazement and then
smiles crossed their faces as the
mailman went to the dryer, with
drew' his uniform, took it to the
restroom, put it on, and then went
about his duties of delivering the
mail.
It is getting more expensive to
get married ... he average wed
ding today costs the bride or her
pap nearly $1,700 . . . this in
cludes $160 for the dresh and $600
fora reception . . . but it doesn’t
cover the new $3.50 necktie the
•bridegroom buys for the cere
mony, or the $400 spent on the
honeymoon.
Success may go to one’s head,
but the stomach is where it gets
in its worst work. —Ken Hubbard

Former Ambassador Says
U.S. Must Throw Blockade
Around Castro’s Cuba
WASHINGTON UP — A former
ambassador says the United States
must throw a blockade around
Fidel Castro’s Cuba.
The ex-envoy, Robert C. Hill,
told the Senate Internal Security
subcommittee Monday that the
United States should not ask other
hemisphere nations to join the
blockade but should do it alone—
with military force — if it has to.
Hill, a political appointee who
served as Ambassador to Costa
Rica, El Salvador and Mexico as
well as serving a stint as assistant
I Secretary of State for Congres
I sional liaison, said Iron Curtain
1 countries are shipping arms into
! Cuba that “will be used against
other Latin-American areas.”
Hill contended that State De
partment policy favored Castro
“even after our own government’s
intelligence reports” showed the
Cuban regime was under Com
munist influence or domination.
“There is no doubt in my mind,”
said Hill, “that individuals in the
State Department with the help
of the New York Times put Fidel
Castro in power.”
The Times said there would be
no comment on Hill’s statement.
Hill, who served during the Ei
senhower Administration in Am
bassadorial and State Department
executive posts, did not elaborate
on the way he thought the New
York Times had helped Castro.
But at another point in his
testimony Hill discussed Herbert
L. Matthews, an editorial writer
for the Times, who wrote news
and editorials about Castro before
and after he came into power.
Hill said “Herbert Matthews
has always been an enthusiastic
supporter of Fidel Castro and he
believes the movement is not Com
munist-motivated.”
