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. Louis said
it was attacked by Cuban
planes in an area close to where
Castro placed the landing at

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
