The Cuban crisis is one of a long and con tinuing series of challenges we face. At a time of challenge, the American future depends upon the American people: what we think, what we do, how we rise as individuals to the task of meeting great challenge with great achievement. We each have a part to play. Yours is described in the timely new citizen action guide "Challenge to Americans" of fered here which puts the crisis of the moment in the true perspective of the struggle which is likely to continue for years. The world situa tion is far more complex than the emergencies of daily headlines. As President Kennedy says: "We are challenged by the revolution of communism. The Communists seek power through conspiracy, terror, aggression and deceit. They exploit and corrupt legitimate revolutionary forces, scavenging on poverty, ignorance, despair. "And also we are challenged by the revolution of hope in con tinents long captive to stagnation and despair. "We are challenged by the revolution in science and tech nology bringing new boons and new dangers to humanity. "We are challenged by the revolution in international relation ships. Nation has begun to work with nation to solve mankind's common problems. New international bodies are exploring un charted paths of world cooperation in the interests of world wide peace, justice, and In an age of revolution, "We must match great challenges striving for excellence in all things. With a mature understand ing ol the magnitude, complexity, and probable long duration of the struggle we tace. Let each of us re solve to do something extra tor our country in this period of trial."

A good way to begin is with a mature understanding of what we are up against and what you personally can do about it. You will find exactly that in the timely new booklet, "Challenge to Americans." Endorsed by Presidents Kennedy and Eisenhower, approved by the Department of State, it is an indispensable information and action guide for the purposeful citizen. We need many such citizens. We need them now. We need you-your value as an individual, your power as the source of our national strength, your aid in deciding our common future. Your copy of "Challenge to Americans" is free.
