Reminded Deadline entitled to a three per cent dis count: otherwise, they will be assessed a small interest charge, accrued quarterly, on the balance due, Mrs. Newell stated. The total revenues to be raised by taxpayers this year amounts to $5,283,394.39, as certified by County Assessor Clyde "Hap" Cladwell. Property owners in all but one of the county's 45 taxing districts received some respite this year in that they will pay less taxes than they did for 19H2. The saving to taxpayers varies from $.40 per $1,000 in Klamath Falls to $11.70 per $1, 000 in the Malin taxing district. The overall drop in taxes has been attributed to an increase of some $2.5 million in the as sessed valuation of the county which increased from $88.1 mil lion in 1982 to $91.6 this year. Of the increase, more than $1 million was noted in the field of public utilities. Individual statements stipulat ing the amount of taxes due to the county were mailed to each taxpayer last week, Mrs. Newell said.

Castro Claims Capture Of U.S. Counter-Agents HAVANA (UPD-Fidel Castro claimed Wednesday niglt his men had captured U.S. counter intelligence agents smuggling explosives into Cuba and he threatened to shoot them along with prisoners from an American-organized raiding party. Castro, in a two hour and 40 minute television and radio broadcast to the nation, cited the capture of agents, possibly Canadians working for the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency ICIAi, and exile raiders as proof that U.S. foreign policy is "hypocritical." He compared the incidents with tlie U2 affair of 1960, when Russia announced it had shot down U.S. pilot Francis Gary Powers over the Soviet Union. Apparently going on what he had learned from interrogating captured exile raiders, Castro named the vessel "Rex" as the "mother ship" of an Oct. 2t landing attempt on Cuba's south coast, described the vessel and said it was based at west Palm Beach..

A vessel named the Rex and painted blue, as Castro said, was found tied up at the port of Palm Beach, just north of west Palm Beach. It was regis tered from Nicaragua, whose government is strongly anti Castro and, unofficially, has be friended anti-Castro Cuban ex ile groups. Castro said the Rex was the CIA's boat and had been used in at least 10 raids against Cuba. The CIA in Washington had no comment cither on Castro's speech or the vessel. Castro did not identify by na tionality the five men he said were captured in the Oct. 21 landing attempt, which came the same night the American owned freighter J.

Sen. Milward L. Simpson of Wyoming introduced the speech in the Senate with: "Mr. Presi dent, Miss Indian America of 1953, a young lady named Ra mona Soto, spoke July 18 at the International Convention of the National Secretaries Association in Denver, Colo. Her speech, a mixture of wit, perception, and history, brought the audience to its feet and gave some excel lent insights into the thinking of tlie American Indian. "I ask unanimous consent that Miss Soto's speech, 'FTom Wintercount to T e I s t a r,' be printed in the Appendix of the Record." In opening, Ramona, the daughter of Mrs. Florinda Solo and Joseph Soto of Klamath Falls, said, "In choosing t h e Patient's Death SALEM (UPI I Investigation of the death of an Oregon State Hospital patient was continued Wednesday when an inquest jury was told the patient may have been beaten.

That actual win tercount is tlie tanned hide of a deer, elk or buffalo (which is rather hard to procure nowa days). On this hide was paint ed in hieroglyphics, the activi ties of tlie tribe during tlie pe riod of each month or moon as I understand we used to call ill. This was tlie only readable history preserved of the Plains tribes in the far past. This was done by the historians, or should we say secretaries, of the tribe. Incidentally it was done from memory in tlie wintertime when there was nothing else to do, hence, the wintercount . . ." The story teller and the re covers of tribal activities had only to document activities af ter thoy had happened. Nothing was set down to do only what had been done.

Just in the business world in its beginnings. A breach of faith between individuals was subject to immediate and fre quently permanent punishment. Continuing to the beginning of the era of work outside the home for women, Ramona said, "In the late 1800s conditions were such that women were neither educated for, nor en couraged in, nor accepted as, an integral part of tlie business world. At that time tlie popular Mea was, 'a woman's place is in the home.' This had about as much truth as tlie equally well known statement, 'the only good Indian is a dead one.' "Being both Indian and a woman, I can assure you that I cannot believe eitlier one." She cited Ihe lack of educa tion as tlie deterrent to Indian progress and education for the acceleration of woman's accept ance in tlie business world. She mentioned the success of people of her race, the Will Rogers, both senior and junior, Maria Tallchief, in the ballet, Jim Thorpe, tlie greatest athlete of the last half century, Ralph Weeks Allen for his work in the theater, W.
