KIWANIANS HEAR
FUND AP PEAL
Speaker Urges Financial
Support Of Drive
Against Cancer

Two addresses, one an appeal
for moral and financial support
for the fight against cancer in
the United States and a second
along more lighter lines, featured
yesterdays meeting of the Will
mington Kiwanis club.
Appearing before the club on
behalf of the North Carolina So
rosis club drive which opens next
Monday, Mrs. Rex Willis, review
ed for the benefit of those pres
ent, some facts and figures show
ing the need of financial aid for
the war against cancer from which
mo one is safe"
Mrs. Willis, in pointing out that
every three minutes someone in
the United States dies from can
Ger, said that this inhuman en-
envy respects no law of man
kind-it strikes rich and poor,
young and old alike.
During the period of World War
LII, this nation spent only s. ,0OO,-
600 in the research fight against
cancer. More funds are needed
she said, for a strong program
of education, to provide better
facilities for prevention, diagnosis
and treatment of cancer and to
expand research work.
In urging the clubs moral as
well as financial support for the
drive, Mrs. Willis stressed that
go pre- cent of the funds donated
will remain in North Carolina for
treatment of cancer sufferers and
other lancer prevention work.
Guest speaker of the day was
Frank Jeeter of the North Caro-
lima Extension service, State Col
lege and chairman of the agricul-
tural committee of Kiwanis In
ternational for this district.
Jeeter lauded the agricultural
resources and possibilities of
North Carolina. He extolled the
work that is being done in the
state along dairy cattle lines, hog
production and other agricultural
efforts, results of which, he said,
makes North Carolina the third
ranking state from an agricul-
tural standpoint in the nation.
William Wendt was awarded the
attendance prize for March, while
visitors for the day were XII
wanian Oscar S. Kervin of FL
mira, N. Y, F. W. Dubalt Of
Chicago Heights, James Ferger
and D. Bost of Wrightsboro.

bargaining unit must vote that
they want it.
Hartley said there vas some op-
position among COP leaders and
among Republican committeeman
to outlaWing industry wide bar
gaining and the closed shop. (The
closed shop requires an employer
to hire only union workers.
But on those points, he said, the
bill will remain unchanged.
And he predicted committee Re.
publicans will vote solidly to ap.
prove the bill by Saturday ano
send it to the floor for debate.
Behind that forecast is a desire
within the committee to get the
House to pass a tougher bill than
the Senate. Then the House will
have some bargaining power of
its W when it comes to working
out a compromise.

record of evidence at the trial.
The new evidence consist
ed primarily Of affidavits describ-
ing Mrs. .Frys reputation as i'm

ton.
One uncontested affidavit was
that of H. H. Rozier, Lumberton
