Campaign Launched
For S10,765,OO0
For Service Clubs
33o RecreutionuI Units
Near Military Bases
Are Being Planned

A Nationwide campaign to raise
tl0.765, 900 for service to soldiers,
sailors and civilian defense person.
mel was announced today by six
agencies which are cooperating as
the United Service Organizations for
National Defense.
The plans were made public by
Walter Hoving, president National
headquarters have been opened at
1880 Empire State Building, New
York.
The affiliated agencies are the Y.
NJ. c. A, the National Catholic
Community Service, the Salvation
Army, the Y. w. C. A, the Jewish
Welfare Board and the National
Travellers Aid AsSocia ton.
The agencies are planning service
club facilities in 339 places adjacent
TO Army camps, naval stations and
defense centers throughout the
United States and its overseas bases.
Solicitation of gifts among cor
porations and individuals Of large
means will begin at once June 8
is the opening date for the general
campaign.
More than 100000 young Amer
leans are now in uniform" Mr..
Hoving pointed out. Many of them
are in huge training centers, built in
haste to meet national emergeny.
Soldiers sometimes outnumber, by
5 or 10 times, the adult population
OF nearby towns and villages
When the soldiers go into town
by the thousands evenings and week
ends, there is too often no place for
them to 60 nothing to do. no good
friends to meet the lonely. no
morale-building recreation. Boys
stand amlessly on the sidewalk,
wondering what to do, and those
who seek to exploit the boys, some
times viciously, are eager to supply
the answer.
The United Service Organizations
plan to bring our soldiers, sailors
and youth in defense industries a
measure of the hospitality, the
spiritual influence and the comfort
which the people at home want
them to have"
Preliminary plans call for central
entertainment halls, each seating
500, with reading and game rooms,
lunch counters, lockers, showers and
general service club facilities. The
agencies expect to use existing facil-
tiles to the fullest extent. Where
there are none, however, it will be
necessary to build them.

these around the edges of the
rounded room will be private booths
and twosome tables and down the
center of the room will be attrac-
tive, modern chrome pedestal tables,
all complete with the finest linen.
The ceiling of the room will be
equally attractive, being a two-di-
mensional oval, flattening before it
joins the curved walls. Through this
will come the conditioned air from
the modern air-conditioning plant
and from this will come the indirect
lighting effects which are expected
to add much to the attractiveness
of the new establishment.
The building is to be completely
renovated at a cost Of approximate

said, become n Of the most at
tractive estaurants in the city.
"In this new establishment" they
said, 1--WE plan to continue to give
the public the same high type of
service and fine foods which we
have been serving them at the

Britain, China and Greece "all nee
essary assistance which America
can produce"
1.-The provisions of the legislation
now pending in the congress the
lease-lend measure), if enacted into
law, would greatly facilitate thai
task" he said.
Answering accusations of Japa'
nese leaders that the United States
is pursuing an aggressive policy
in the Far East" and that 1--WE have
placed our line of defense in the
western Pacific" Welies asserted
this country's Zines of defense are
determined solely by the acts and by
the policies of other nations"
Denying that the United States
was seeking to extend tits hegemony
or jurisdiction in the Pacific area"
Welles said "those lines Of defense
are fixed solely by what we estimate
is required, in the light of such poll
cies and acts by others, to insure
the i%nviolability and the safety OF
our territory"
With reference to a negotiated
peace in Europe, Welles cited coun'
tries invaded by Germany in viola
ton, he said, of binding assur
ances." Then he asked:
Under conditions in Europe today
could American public opinion con
ceivably favor a negotiation fol-
peace which would sanction the con
tinued enslavement of the nations
now occupied by German militar!
forces?"
But more than that, the negotia
ton of any lasting peace must be
predicated upon the sincere desire
of all the parties to such a settle
ment to abide by the agreements
reached and to carry out the pledges
which they make.
From the record of the German
government of the past eight years
and in the light of the citation which
I have read to you, is it possible
to imagine that any peace arrived
at under present conditions would be
worth the paper on which it was
| Written?"
