- " I Castro Says He's Ready For War Against Anyone PETER C. DAY, (right) Forest Service employe, is shown receiving $300 check from Vondis E. Miller, Umpqua National Forest supervisor, Day, foreman of the Forest Service regional sign shop, submitted on employe suggestion which, according USAF officials, resulted in considerable savings in the manufacture of rustic signs. (Forest Service Photo) , ' Suggestion Nets Award Of $300 A suggestion for an improved routing method in the manufac ture of rustic forest signs has won a $300 cash award from the Forest Service for Peter C. Day. ' i The award was made this week by Vondis E. Miller, Umpqua National Forest super visor. Miller said the award to Day is the largest cash presentation for employe accomplishment mado on the Umpqua in recent years. Day is foreman of the Forest Service regional sign shop lo cated in the Umpqua's ware house building on Diamond Lake Boulevard. The new system for routing signs developed by Day consists of a special template and rout ing device. A hand router is guided by the template as it cuts the letters in the sign board. It replaces more cum bersome and costly methods previously used, said Miller. The official said the award was made through the "employe suggestion program" which en courages employes to submit1 ideas for improving operational efficiency. The Forest Service sign shop here manufactures numerous kinds of rustic signs for Na tional 1' crests in Oregon and Washington.

Stung by Betancourt's call for an air and sea blockade of Cu ba as well as his warning that Venezuela might take unilateral action against Cuba, Castro said: "Attacking Cuba and block ading Cuba would not be an easy thing because we have the arms to defend ourselves and so, it doesn't matter who attacks our country." In an apparent reference to the installation of Soviet mis siles in Cuba in 1062, ho added: 'When they talk of attacking Cuba they are just justifying the defensive measures of Cuba which occasioned the October (19G2) crisis." But he did not elaborate. He denied Betancourt's charges that three tons of1 clandestine arms shipped to pro- Castro terrorists in Venezuela came from Cuba. Instead, he reiterated earlier Cuban charges that "they were1 sent by the (U. S.) Central In telligence Agency."

Training sessions for leaders who will be directing discussions will be held in Scottsburg Tues day and in Roseburg Wednes day and Thursday. Women in extension units all over Doug las County will be participating. Rules cannot be laid down tell ir.g parents how to develop re sponsibility in an individual child but the women in these groups will consider what re sponsibility really is and how it is developed, said Miss Fletcher Mrs. Roberta Frasier, family life specialist at Oregon State University, says the program developed because she is ire quently queried about develop ing responsibility in children to day. She said groups often ask if she thinks children today are less responsible than they used to be and would they not be more responsible if they had more to do at home. Mrs. Frasier said she believ ed that training for rcsponsibil ity begins with attitudes devel oped in infancy, and that some times children are discouraged in developing responsibility be cause they are not allowed to do things for themselves. She observed that children have different responsibilities to school, teachers, friends and Darents and sometimes must de cide which of these responsibil ities should be met first. ho would be able to leave Dec, 22 as scheduled to tour U.S military bases in the Mediter ranean area Robert M.

Protection Against Killer Difficult NEW YORK (UPI) -Former President Dwight D. Eisenhow er said today "there could be no absolute protection against" an assassin who is "deter mined" to kill a president. Eisenhower, noting that he received an average of 250 'crackpot" letters weekly while in office, said he "thought it realistic to assume that my safety was largely out of my hands." '. . .If a determined individu al was willing to die to accom'l pbsh his purpose, there could be no absolute protection against him," Eisenhower said :in an article in the Saturday Evening Post. Eisenhower also ureed that succession tn the Dresidency be changed to keep the administra tion "heading in the same poli tical direction" in the event of an emergency. Eisenhower said the presni line from the president, vice nrpeirlpnt In thf snp&kpr of the House, president pro tempore of the Senate and then to me caD inet is illogical. The former chief executive said he preferred a previous system that called for the sec retary of state and other cabi net members to follow the vice Page 2 The .
