Church Refuses Contributions ABERDEEN. S D. (AP)-A Methodist bishop is protesting the action of a South Dakota judge who recently ordered a group of game law violators to make con tributions to their churches in lieu of paying fines. The case involved pheasant hunters appearing before Judge Paul F. Burke at Miller, S. D "A church cannot properly use the power of a government agen cy to collect funds for its sup port, Bishop Edwin R. Garrison, Aberdeen, said Friday. Bishop Garrison said he was advising church treasurers under his jurisdiction to return any such contributions.

Here is the first.) By PROF. WOIABD F. LIBBY For $30, I built a fallout shel ter in my backyard. It gives my family 100 times more chance of surviving nuclear: fallout than if I had done noth ing. This poor man's shelter Is just one example of many practical things you can do and especially know about for survival insur ance if all efforts to keep peace tail. The key to survival is under- standing the hazards, the effects of nuclear weapons, so you can make intelligent decisions and take intelligent action. The smart man has 100 times more chance than the man who doesn't know what to expect or to do. Ignorance can kill, just as it kills the little child who runs in front of an automobile. You can save your life easily. You can easily lose it. Do you know, for example, that Even if a bomb exploded near by, you would have an hour or longer to take or prepare shelter before the fallout arrived? Forty-eight hours after radioac tive fallout comes down, it is only 1 per cent as "hot" or dangerous as when it fell? Fallout is one of the biggest po tential killers in nuclear weapons? By this fallout, I don't mean the relatively small amount com ing from high air bursts of nu clear tests. I mean the thousands of tons of radioactive dirt and materials vaporized and made radioactive by a great burst near or on the ground. This fallout behaves like ordi nary dust, except it is hot.

Trotsky's Widow Asks 'New Look' PARIS (API Leon Trotsky'S widow has written lb Soviet au thorities asking for a new look at Trotsky's trial and assassina tion in the light of denunciations of Stalin at the recent Soviet Communist party congress. The letter, disclosed today by the international secretariat of the Fourth Internationale, said in part: 'I ask that you totally and publicly revise the Moscow trial in which the chief accused were Leon Trotsky and my son Leon Sedoff. I ask a complete and pub lic investigation on the - means employed by the CPU (Stalin's secret police) against Trotsky, on his assassination in Mexico, and on those who inspired and exe cuted the crime." Madame Trotsky also asked the whereabouts of another son, Ser gei Sedoff, arrested in 1935. The letter was addressed to the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet and the Central Committee of the Communist party. Trotsky lost a power battle with Stalin in 1927 and fled to Turkey, then to Mexico, but was always Trotsky's house, despite heavy in danger from secret police security, and murdered him with agents. an axe. His slayer was impris- In 1W0, a Soviet agent invaded oned and released in 1960 SHELTER Professor Libby is shown with his backyard fallout shelter which he con structed at a cost of $30. There are ways to clean up, brush or wash away this radioactive dust. . You could build a $30,000 slid ter, and yet allow fallout to get in unless you knew what you were doing. Fallout will not mean the end of all life on earth, even if hun dreds of bombs were exploded. All these arc facts. They and other facts answer "Yes" to the many questions people are asking, which all add up to this: "Is there really anything we can do?" f cannot tell you there is a simple, cheap way to protect your self if you are in the very center of a target when it receives a direct hit. But millions of us will not be there. And many thousands near the center of destruction could sur vive, with knowledge and protec tion. Your First Move First, let us assume you arc caught in the most defenseless po sition out in the open, with no! warning an attack is coming. The first sign is a tremendous i light, thousands of times brighter than the sun or a flash of light ning. There s no mistaking what it is. If you sense it, don't look at it. It could blind you. Throw yourself instantly to the! ground, and preferably behind; some protection, such as a build ing, the curb of a street, a cul vert, even a tree, anything to put protection between you and thai flash. Lie as flat as you can. With the light, the first effect is prompt or instant radiation from the nuclear burst. It is X-rays and neutrons flying out in straight lines in all directions from the burst. This is not fallout. The X rays and gamma rays travel about 1,000 yards at most, then disap pear. With this radiation, at the same1 speed comes heat. The heat from a 20 megaton bomb might cause second degree burns at a distance up to 25 miles, unless you were protected. A hole in the ground could save you from much or all harm from the radiation and heat. Thousands of Japanese in Hiroshima or Nag asaki would have survived had they known this in time. Then, travelling at the speed of sound, comes the blast effect, mane all the worse because it picks up all kinds of objects and hurls them about like missiles. Hiding, making yourself small increases chance of survival. The chances improve the farther you happen to be from the bomb cen ter. Survive this, and you have prob ably an hour before fallout ar rives. Why? Because it consists of the nuclear ashes or coals from the burst, and sucked-up mate rial. And it shoots up to 20 to 25 miles high, and has all that distance to fall back to earth CUBAN ACTOR DIES MIAMI, Fla. (AP) - Federico Pineiro, a member of the Negrito and Garrido comedy team that ourcd Latin America for 35 years, died Thursday. Pineiro, who was 59, fled the Castro re gime in May and had been ap pearing at a Mitmi theater with other Cuban stars at the time of his death.

Mothers are around the house all the time bcause somebody has to cook and wash and all. They are smart ladies and they always know when you're eating too much or not enough. On Mother's Day they get presents and a year older. Every day mothers read the newspaper so they can stay smart and find out what to buy and just because they like to. In the Klamath Basin mothers read the Herald and News more than anything else because they get more out of It. Television repairmen, dentists and policemen do, too. In fact, most everyone does. Nuclear Sub Goes To Post PASCAGOULA. Miss. (API - The USS Snook, the Navy's 21st nuclear-powered submarine, will leave Pascagoula Monday for its first assignment with the Pacific Fleet.
