Recognition of the posi-
bility ef fGreenbelt's being
Eqhesenasthe site of the pro-
posed FW A-fnanced county
hospital was finally taken at
a meeting of the Greenbelt
Town Council last night.
A resolution introduced
by Councilman Frank Last
ner and passed unanimously
by the Council petitions
FWA to consider Greenbelt
as a possible location for the
proposed hospital.
More To Offer
1t was pointed out by Mr..
Lastner that Greenbelt has more
to offer than other Prince Georges
community, in that the necessary
acreage is already owned by the
Government, thus cutting initial
expenses, and that Greenbelt has
a potential population larger than
any other county community. 1t
suggested by Town Manager Roy
S. Braden that that vicinity known
locally as "Tank Hill" be con-
sidered as a possible site. Mr..
Braden added that the equipment
now being held by the Health
Association should count in favor
of the selection of a local site
for the hospital.
Local Action Taken
Mr.. Lastner, before offering the
resolution, said that he had con-
tacted many interested officials in
Washington, and had been told
by each that before any decision
could be made concerning the
possibility of Greenbelt as a hos

Boy Scouts Honor
Birthday

For ten million men and boys in
America this week, February 6 to
IL, is an anniversary. Thirty-two
years ago the Boy Scouts of
America was founded. The groups
of twelve to fifteen year olds who
rallied to the Scout banner during
that first year was small. But each
year saw more and more boys be-
ing touched by the Scout Oath
and Law.
The first year scattered few
Scouts-61, 495 all told-had the
advantages of Scouting. But by
1915 almost half a million boys
had enjoyed the great game of
Scouting-262,0 43 were active and
slightly smaller group had
graduated, as it were.
The growth of the Boy Scouts
of America has been steady ever
since. Each year more boys came
within influence of Scouting. Nat
urally many boys joined the ever
increasing number of young men
who had been Scouts. And because
they had been Scouts they were
better citizens. This number con-
tinues to grow until today ten
million men and boys represent
the circle of direct influence OF
Scouting.
Thus it is that only are the
million and a half active Boy
Scouts and Scouters celebrating
the thirty-second birthday OF
Scouting, but the eight and one
half million alumni of Scouting al
so have a claim in the birthday
festivities.
Most former Scouts still hold
with the Scout Oath and Law, and
hope their own sons also will say:
"On my honor I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my
country, and to obey the Scout
Law.
To help other people at all times
To keep myself physically strong
mentally awake and morally
straight"

Office OF Civilian
Defense

Led by internationally famous
members of the race, Negroes
throughout the nation are active
ly participating in the program of
Civilian Defense and are serving
in many capacities, according to
Mrs. Crystal Bird Fauset, Chief
of the Race Relations Division of
the Office of Civilian Defense in
Washington.
Marion Anderson, famous oper-
attic contralto, and Todd Duncan,
star of the successful stage play,
"Porgy and Bess," are outstand-
ing examples of Negroes who are
volunteering their talent and sup
port of the program. Miss Ander-
son devoted part of her first con-
cert recital at Carnegie Hall, New
York City, to patriotic music, and
Mr.. Duncan is contributing his
services in an all-Negro radio pro-
grom devoted to Civilian Defense
on February s, Mrs. Fauset an
nounced.
Leading a packed house in sing
ing the national anthem and meet
ing scores of persons from the
audience after her recital, Miss
Anderson stressed that the Amer
lean Negro can be counted upon
to carry out his duties and re-
sponsibilities in this national emer-
gency just as he has done his share
in critical times before. America,
she said, needs the complete 10y
atty and unity of all its people
today. She urged that each per-
son do hispart regardless of how
small the contribution.
From Boston where he is play
ing an engagement of "Porgy And
Bess" at the old Shubert Theatre,
Mr.. Duncan offered his own SER
vices and the talents of his cast
of actors and singers to the Office
of Civilian Defense. After a sixth
curtain call at one performance
he led the audience in singing the
| Star Spangled Banner and later
discussed the defens program with
Mr.. Alexander.
Mr.. Duncan recalled the untir-
ing service of the American Negro
during the first world war and ex-
pressed a conviction that the pre-
sent emergency would find the
leaders and the vast majority of
the race at the forefront of ma
tional defense activity.
