TOP O, THE MORNING
Spiking a Canard

It is a deplorable side-light on
commendable undertaking that reports
should be spread that quantities of the
old clothing gathered last year for
Europe's war victims is in warehouses
in this country being sold off to second
hand dealers.
What effect this is having or may
have on gifts to the clothing campaign
now under way is not easily foreseen
but unless the evil talk is stopped forth
with it will inevitably lessen the collec-
ton and needy people abroad made
uuately clothed in bitter winter.
To learn the truth the Star contact
ed Major Henry Boyd who, because of
his long experience in moving freight
as executive agent of the Wilmington
Port Traffic Association, was placed
in charge of getting great quantities
of clothing gathered from all parts OF
the country on its way. Major Boyd
was with the Fifth Service Command,
stationed at Louisville, KY, and had
charge of moving nine hundred car
loads of clothing and medical supplies.
He tells us that every shipment de-
livered at any warehouse was accepted
on invoice and shipped out on invoice,
and as carefully checked as any COM
modities in regular trade. He says that
he heard the rumors in Louisville but
that close inquiry proved them untrue
They originated, he assumes, from the
fact that the Army, which took prec-
edence over all other shipping orders
turned over several warehouses to the
Treasury Department, when it had nc
further use for them, for the temporary
storage of UNRRA shipments, includ-
ing the clothing given by the Ameri
can people to European sufferers. Nc
sooner was this done than suspicious
persons fastened to spread the wore
that these goods were being sold of
to dealers and donors bilked, whereas
they were merely being held until ship
ping was available.
It is not possible to go higher thar
Major Boyd for authority to declare
the present rumors utterly false. Viii
minstonians, who are now being solicit
ed for additional clothing, are urget
to consider them and give all that the,
can lest someone perish.
