 Measurements In Press
 An East Berlin correspondent for an out of town newspaper. which has some circulation in New Britain. has taken it upon himself to criti- else the United Community corpor- ation drive now being held i'll this city. Ordinarily the Herald would take no notice ot such correspond ence. In fact. should New Britain person wish 10 criticize through the columns Of this paper he would be granted the courtesy freely. provid- ing that his remarks were entitled to courtesy. However. the corre- spondent is evidently very unfamil- far with his subject and has made several misstatements, which the Herald feels it should correct. The sentences in which the misstate- ments occur are as follows:
 The Junior Achievement tho Day Nursery. the Welfare Associ- ation and the Fresh Air Camp arc supposed to be run from the taxes
 of this city. After the city pays for
 it the people pay in the Community
 Drive and then, not content with
 this. the Herald Fresh Air Camp
 fund must be started.
 None of the organizations men, toned in the first sentence receives money from the city. Perhaps they should but they do not. The second sentence is carrying still further the mistake in the first. The Herald does not conduct a Fresh Air fund drive It has not done so since the Fresh Air camp was taken under the wing of the Community Corpor.
 ation. When it did no contributions were personally solicited.
