Come on, bowlers, try and
give our secretary a little more
cooperation. After all, a secre-.
tary's job can be very tedious
and tiresome. I'm sure a few
considerate words would be
very encouraging.
Did you hear the latest? Pol

General Electric. What hap
pened to the hall-it was so
cold that everybody wore their
coats? There was a new band
and it was rather good but /
don't think they played enough
polkas. The name Of the band
was Selvo and they had a few
good singers and a wonderful
trumpet player. The crowd was
new except for a few. Spied Leo

Brensik. Leo is trying to have

dance. Steve had to wait a long
time to get his coat checked.
Louis Stopar and a very pretty
girl were together. How about
an introduction, Louis? Tony
Pesek came without his girl
friend and not doing bad. Is it
because your girlfriend wasn't
there? Vadnal and a few other
boys came in for a short time,
presumably to hear the band.
I didn't notice the Sightseers
or Snoopy. Did you all go to

Julie Godec and Rich Skufca

spied Wally and girlfriend
Norma. You really can Utter

in at the close Of the dance with
a boyfriend. Who is he, Kate?
Ruth Ogrinc really looked
sharp in her red dress. Did you
make it? Frank Fenda all alone
and looking lonesome. Dixie
and Jennie Tomsek hitting it
off with a bang. It took you
out of the way to walk her home
didn't it? This also looks like a
new romance. Ernie Luzar had

Council Block Organization

Council Block Organization
A substantial start will be
made by March LIST, in a Coun-
ty-wide drive to mobilize our
entire civilian population in an
active Army on the Home
Front, under the leadership of
some $4,000 neighborhood lead
ers, to be selected by their own
people, to head the units Of the
Block Organization being set
up by the Cuyahoga County
Council for Civilian Defense,
under the active leadership of
Mrs. Ann Wright Rehor.
The Block Organization
headquarters is located in the
Civilian Defense Office in Pub
lie Auditorium, where records
are now on file on 241 Block
Organizations already estab-
lished in the County. Qualified
trained volunteer organizers
are available to assist people in
any neighborh hood, in forming
their own Block Organizations.
A special Block Organization
headquarters has been set up in
the War Service Center Build
ing on Public Square, where
people may obtain information
on this Plan by either personal
call or by phoning Main 2267.
Public meetings are being ar
ranged by the Controllers of
the thirty Report and Control
Centers of Cuyahoga County so
that, in their respective areas,
units of the Block Organization
may be established.
Many Of the major commu-
nifty problems arriving out of
the impact of the war apply to
the individual household. An
effective Block Organization, to
include all of the $4,000 fami-
lies of Cuyahoga County, will
provide this area with it's most
efficient offensive weapon to
attack the problems of war
housing, salvage, war man.
power, rationing, conservation,
nutrition, transportation, and
many other problems which af-
feet the individual and the en-
tire community.
The Block Organization is
perhaps the best overall an
swer to the question, what
Can I Do to Help Win the
WARP" that many Of us will
ever find, according to Mrs. Re-
hor. In the early days of our
Nations History, community
problems were solved in the
democratic Town Meeting. The
Block Organization provides
our Town Meeting in this War
Period. Some 20 families in a
neighborhood meeting elect a
Block Leader.
These leaders then elect zone
leaders, who work under the

the Report and Control Center
In this manner a complete or

UNIVERSAL TONGUE
 FOR PEACE

To the New York Herald Tribune
 The compleXes of racial preju- dice, envy, mistrust and cunning displomacy that prevent inter national lasting peace are, in my opinion, due largely to the fact that nations dealing with one another must do so at arms length because they speak diff ferent Languages and cannot in- telligently communicate their views and desires to one another.
 These compleXes that lead to war can be checked and equality and good fellowship eventually improved if an international common language were employ ed. Only through mutual under standing can there be mutual peace.
 The postwar conference will look far ahead. An endeavor should be made to bring about an agreement among the repre- sentatives of the assembled na- tions that the English language be made part of the study in every grade of every school and college in every nation, thus pre- pairing their scholars in the use of a common language for future diplomatic and representative service of their respective peo- ples.

1t was felt likely, however, that
the step may be the first in a series
to swing Martinique and Guade-
loupe Islands into the Allied cause.
(The French Committee of Ma
tional Liberation was reported
In Algiers to have decided today
to send a delegate to Martinique
to confer with Admiral Robert
on a transfer of the island to
the committees authority Iden-
tity of the envoy was not dis
closedD
Admiral Hoover conducted the
first negotiations In June, 1910, by
which Admiral Robert, after the fall
of France. agreed to demilitariza :
ton of ships and planes In the
islands In return for economic as
sistance. and also agreed to close
the islands to Axis submarines.
The State Department abrogated
the agreement last May.
Observers here were puzzled by
Admiral Roberts action in making
his overtures to Washington rather
than to the French Committee of
National Liberation In Algiers. 1t
could be viewed two ways. 1t was
pointed out.
Admiral Robert. who has remained
faithful to the Vichy government
despite pressure from the United
Nations. still may be unwilling to
deal with the French committee,
or else he is seeking United Ma
tions support in Washington before
turning over control of the islands
Rene Weber, former governor Of
French Guiana who was ousted in
March. expressed the opinion here
that Admiral Robert opened ne
gotiatlons through Washington to
insure control passing to sup
porter of Gen. Henri Giraud rather
than to Gen. Charles de Gaulle.
Early in April Admiral Robert
indicated he would bring Marti-
nique to the side of the Allies when
"the French who are fighting form
a unity under one single authority
vested with sovereign rights"
Likeliest successor to the admiral
was believed to be Jean Rapenne
young and well-liked governor of
French Guiana, who was appointed
to the post by Gen. Giraud after
Veber's custer.
Early in May Rapenne revealed
that when he left Africa to take
over the post at Cayenne Gen.
Giraud had told him to look after
French interests" throughout the
French Antilles.
Rapenne added that Gen. Giraud
intended him to become high COM
missioner of Martinique If and when
Admiral Robert stepped down.
