Thanks Star for Red Cross

To the Editor Of The Star:
In behalf of the Red Cross Nurses
Aide Corps of the District of Columbia,
I wish to thank you for the generous
support of your paper in our recent
recruiting campaign.
The many splendid articles in The
Star were one of the chief reasons for
the success of that campaign. Miss
Ottenberg's "Job to Be Done" was mar
velously. effective, and we are so CRATE
full.
We are proud to announce that to-
day we have already started to train
80 new nurses aides whose services, as
you know, are needed in our local hos
pitals.
Many, many thanks! Sincerely yours,
MRS. MILLARD TYDINGS,
Chairman. D. c. Nurses Aide Corps.

distributed through information officers
stationed at our various embassies and
legations, and to some extent through
consulates.
One proposal made by Assistant Sec
retary Of State william Benton, who is
in charge of this new State Department
activity, needs careful examination.
That is the proposal to furnish Amer
lean editorial and radio comment on
the news" Little of this is carried by
the great news associations, and not
very much by the foreign -beamed broad
casts OF the commercial networks. But
any such digest Of opinion, if sent out
by Government information service,
would need to be very carefully and
conscientiouSly edited. A case in point
is the admirable daily bulletin "Todays
London Papers" which is now distributed
in this country by the British Informa-
tion Services. This bulletin tells what
news stories are being principally fea-
tured IN the British press, and gives
extracts from editorial and special
articles with q fine impartiality, both
from the supporters and opponents of
the government.
Another useful field of activity, about
WHICH Atde mas YET Deen SAID, lies In
the making Of contacts with editors,
writer's and radio broadcasters in foreign
countries. These contacts must be per-
sonal and cordial; the making of them
requires very high caliber of ability,
character and experience in our infor-
nation officers. Hence we must get good
men, and pay them salaries commen-
surate with the counterattractions of
civil life.
All this is part of the job of making
America and Americans better known
to the peoples of other lands. We are
not accustomed to such activities. We
have never felt that we needed them
But then we are not accustomed, either
to being not only the greatest power in
the world but the principal pillar of
world security. The possession Of power
has always, In the past, brought with
it jealousy, suspicion and even hatred.
We know that we intend to use our
power for the good of mankind and
not for the aggrandizement of America.
But we must make this clear to those
whom we hope will come to trust us and
to work with US to create a world of
peace and justice under law.

Death Claims Based
On Proxy Marriages
Not Valid, VA Holds

The Veterans Administration is
being forced to tell the women who
married by proxy and whose "hus-
bands didn't come back that proxy
marriages aren't valid when it
comes to collecting on death claims,
VA officials explained today.
The only cases where proxy mar
riages can lead to payment of a
death claim, Joseph F. Barr of the
VA solicitors Office explained, are in
States which recognize common
law" marriages and then only under
certain conditions.
Only one Minnesota has
gone even part way toward recog-
nizing proxy marriage. Mime
sofa attaches the condition, how
ever, that the bride must have been
pregnant at the time of the cere-
mony.
Many of the participants in proxy
marriages are now remarrying le-
gally, Mr.. Barr said he understood,
but the cases coming to the atten-
ton of VA concern women claiming
widows pensions on the basis of
proxy marriages.
Complicating VA decisions are the
laws OF 48 States, the District of
Columbia and the Territories
Nineteen States and the District,
Mr.. Barr said, recognize common
law marriages.
