Helping to provide happy endings is the heart of our busi
ness. Today thousands of older people are living a life of
happy carefree retirement with the help of a regular income
from their Manufacturers Life policies. Many thousands of
families left without a husband and father look to the future
wi:i confidence because Life Insurance has brought freedom
from money worries. The 70th Annual Report of Manu
facturers Life shows that these people, both living policy
holders and the families of those who died, received a total
O of S45,'!16,0S1 in benefits last year,

The 70Ji Annual Report also shows that during the year
',(tK peopie purchased $326,385,215 of new insurance to

em Europe and the Soviet Un
ion itself.
Put simply, youth believes
that "West" is good and "East"
is bad.
In Hungary, Poland, East Ger
many, in all the satellites and in
Russia, youths who have known
only Communism reject it.
Youth sparked the Hungarian
revolt. Youth rallied around the
anti-Soviet movement in Poland.
Youth has East German leaders
living in constant fear of
trouble.
Schools Restless
Reports reaching the West say
East European schools and col
leges are hotbeds for resistance
Russian students are no excep
tion. The Soviet press has criti-
cized students in Moscow and
Leningrad for "reactionary" be
havior. At Moscow University,
students placed British Broad
casting Corporation news items
on the bulletin boards. Soviet
Communist leader Nikita Khru
shchev was shouted down while
speaking to Moscow undergrad
uates, according to Western dip
lomatic reports.
Most Western observers had
expected the reverse. They
spoke of a generation ground
under and lost to Communism
The Communists themsel ves
cannot explain it and are puz
zled and frightened. East Ger
man Communist leader Walter
Ulbricht says:
"We old Communists grew up
under capitalism and took part
in the class struggle. But our
youth never has known the class
struggle. They grew up under
bocialism (Communism), take it
for granted and engage in criti
cism of it."
Some Western observers say
that youth "naturally rebels."
Others say that man has a na
tural yearning for liberty, and
youth willl oppose any system
which puts it in a political,
economic and social straitjacket.
Life Is Dull
There is another factor. Life is
dull and cheerless in the Com
munist world. The simplest
pleasures are warped by politics.
Newspapers, films, radio, televi
sion all are considered prop
aganda media to preach and convert.
Attendance at political rallies
is obligatory. Sunday after Sun
day men who work six days a
week must spend their "day off
marching in parades honoring
tins or that living or dead Red
hero or expressing solidarity
with5 Algerian rebels, Hungarian
communists or Egyptians.
Night after night pressure is
exerted to attend lectures on
Marxism or work overtime with
out pay to boost production.
Even at Christmas coal miners
in East Germany "volunteered"
to work.
People who have lived in
Communist nations are not sur
prised at the" Eastern European
unrest. They say the only wond
er is that there is not more of it.
Ocean Liner Docks
Without Use of Tugs
Ww York (U.R) The super
liner United States, queen of
the U.S. merchant fleet, docked
without tugs yesterday "so grace
fully that not a noise was heard,
and not a scratch marred her
hull."
"This was a perfect landing,"
said Capt. Jones F. Devlin, gen
eral manager of the United
States Lines, "the most grace
ful I ever saw, with or without
tugs. Capt. John Anderson, com
modore of the United States, did
a masterful job."
It was the first time that the
liner, third largest in the world
and holder of the transatlantic
speed record over the two larger
British Queens, had been docked
without the usual assistance of
tugboats, whose crews are on
strike throughout the harbor
The operation took a little more
than 30 minutes.
Representatives of a strike
bound tugboat employers group
meanwhile met to consider a re
vised set of union demands
which Wednesday eased the
deadlock in the week-old strike
that has cut off 70 per cent of
New York's fuel deliveries.

Assistance Fund
Fight Promised
Salem !U.R) Oregon's Demo
cratic congressmen have assured
Gov. Robert D. Holmes they
would continue to fight against
limitations to public assistance
administration funds placed on
the urgent deficiency appropria
tion bill in Congress Tuesday.
Gov. Holmes had requested
Oregon congressmen to give close
scrutiny to House action for fear
that the limitations might force
readjustments to the Oregon pub
lic assistance program in the
April-June quarter of the fiscal
year.
Reps. Edith Green, Al Ullman
and Charles Porter advised the
governor that they were hopeful
that a strong fight for deletion of
the restrictions could be made
in the Senate. Mrs. Green led the
House floor fight against the lim
itations. ' .
The extent to which funds, to
Oregon would be limited for ad
ministration purposes was still
not determined, but the greatest
concern was that the funds
would be cut off without enough
time to make an orderly adjust
ment in the operating budget.
Welfare payments would not
be affected by the limitations..

Sweet, smooth and sassy that's Chevrolet all over. Above, you're looking at the Bel Air Sport Coupe.
Clings to the road,
like
a stripe of paint!
The '57 Chevy can give lessons on
taking curves and holding the road
to just about any car going. Few
cars at any price are so beautifully
balanced and so smooth, sure and
solid in action.
A car has to have a special kind of build
and balance to keep curves under con
trol. And nobody outdoes Chevrolet in
.that department! It "corners" with all
the solid assurance of an honest-o-goodness
sports car. Chevy doesn't
throw its weight around on turns because
it carries its pounds in the right places.
And if the road should turn upward,
Chevy can take care of that nicely, too.
Horsepower options! you 'know, range
up to 245.
Come on in and take a turn at the
wheel of a new Chevrolet and see if you
don't find yourself heading it for home.
Only franchised Chevrolet dealers display this famous trademark
