In a letter congratulating the network for its superb presentation of Holocaust, UCCA deplored that the film leaves the viewer with the net inaccurate impression that most Ukrainians were Ukrainian historian dissident Valentyn Moroz, now in a Soviet jail, was quoted by the Toronto Globe and Mail as in Ukraine was provoked in saying that any a deliberate campaign directed by Moscow "Thousands of innocent Ukrainians were slaughtered at Babi Yar, in addition to the great majority of Jews.

OFF ANY PIANO IN STOCK WHEN YOU Veterans need to store documents The Director of the Veterans Administration Regional Office in Salt Lake City reminds that there is a need for veterans to tell their families where important veterans documents are kept. This is a fact which cannot be overemphasized, said Elmer J. Smith today. Safeguarding discharge papers, marriage certificates or child custody evidence, birth certificates, etc. from fire, theft or loss could be one of the most important legacies a veteran can leave to his survivors, VA officials have found. Among documents that should be protected and filed with family papers are Government and commercial life insurance policies, any VA correspondence with identifying claim numbers, social security numbers, wills, discharge papers, and where applicable, naturalization papers. Families should also be aware of possible survivor benefits. These include VA pensions, dependency and ind demnity compensation for death, burial benefits and interment in a national cemetery. A few minutes spent by the veteran organizing documents and informing his family can do much to avoid anguish during times of emotional stress, Smith emphasized. Veterans should alert their families that information and assistance governing benefits that are available because of veterans status is available at the nearest VA Regional Office. This information can be sought by personal visit or by e dialing the Veterans Administration at the number listed in the local telephone directory. service-connecte- toll-fre- PRESENT THIS AD Ernie Schneiters Riverdale RIVERSIDE GOLF COURSE EXCLUSIVELY AT: , W. $ t FORD ASSOCIATES OREM, UTAH OPIN 10te . 773-533- 0 399-463- 6 Open Daylight til Dark NORTHERN UTAHS MOST yuywvsv?
