It was q cold winter night ana
the Central Union Mission had
taken in its capacity Of men IN
need of a meal and a warm place
to sleep.
More than so drably- dressed
men had walked into the mission
at 613 c street NV during the
evening. The man behind the desk
had asked them a few questions,
filled in a card and assigned them
q bunk. He explained they could
earn three meals the next day by
doing chores about the building.
The man behind the desk sud-
denly looked up. A neatly-dressed.
clean-shaven man had walked in.
His clothes weren't the brown.
earthly color of the tattered out
fits worn by most men who come
to the mission.
Does this place still care for
men and boys?" asked the
stranger.
'Yes." the clerk said.
Stranger Tells Story.
The newcomer took out a
checkbook and wrote 500 check
payable to the mission. Then he
sat down and told his story:
He ran away from home In
Baltimore when he was is. BY the
time he got here he was tired. cold
and hungry and the mission took
him in. But that wasn't all. He
needed some help. He wanted to
talk with someone. A little argu-
ment over attending school had
grown, mostly in his own mind,
until he ran away.
That night he attended a
church service at the mission and
things looked a little clearer to
him. The next day one Of the
mission staff called the family
and told them their boy was ready
to come home.
Since that time the stranger
had graduated from college and
had taken q job with the State
Department In South America.
He gave the mission credit for
giving him help when he needed
it most and really wanted to help
himself.
This was only one Of many sim
flar cases which the mission has
handled since it was established
in 1884. They come back to the
mission to thank those who have
helped them: they write letters
thanking the mission for helping
them get a job. They tell how
they have cut down on their
drinking and have rejoined their
wives and families. And not all
these families are poor. College
graduates. professional men. en-
gineers-men from all walks of
life-have stopped there on the
way from Skid Row to home and
family.
Providing this kind Of help was
the idea In the minds Of the mis-
sion. organizers who held their
first meeting above q cutlery
store at 900 Pennsylvania avenue
NV. and later in a place known
as "Melodian Hall on the pres
ent site Of the Department Of
Justice Building.
Even when the mission moved
to its present location in 1892. 1t
had little trouble with panhan-
dlers and beggars looking only for
money to buy a drink and want
ing nothing more than to stay In
Skid Row.
Donations Are Voluntary.
Since 1884, people-like the
man who wrote the 500 check
have given voluntarily to support
the missions work. Personal solic-
itation for the mission is not per-
mitted.
Through such contributions,
the present seven-story mission
building was constructed in 1887.
It's activities have been expanded
to take care Of about 90 children
Ia times Of family emergency.

65th anniversary at 8 pm. next

.oGiveFranceP Priority
In Arms Shipments
BY the Assoeioted Press

PARIS. Mar. 3O.-Gen. Charles
de Gaulle is demanding priority
for France in American arms ship
ments to back the Atlantic Pact.
The North Atlantic Alliance is
a good thing, but is not enough,
the general told a news confer
ence yesterday.
There must be shipments of
American arms Immediately, he
said. and the first shipments
must be to France because she is
the main protection of Western
Europe.
He declared again that it would
be a grave mistake" to base Eu-
ropean defense on Britain, and
said France must have arms be-
cause:

France. followed by lombard
ment to liberate her, would wreck
the country morally and phys
ically.
2. Most of the troops defending
the Rhine or Elbe-at least at
flrst-would be French.
U. S. Commitments Sought.
The general, who spent most of
World War II as head of the
eXiled free French movement,
called for a precise schedule of
arms shipments to enable France
to defend herself and for definite
strategic commitments from the
United States in case of attack.
Gen. de Gaulle said the Atlantic
Alliance was a happy and very
important manifestation of
Americas drift from isolation. He
also praised the pact as a step
Evening star., 1949-03-30
toward q future Federation of

toward . future Federation OF
Europe.
Without elaboration he said
such a federation. including Ger
many. might attempt to cooper
ate with Russia in unifying the
continent, even if this meant that
Russia would have to change her
regime. He did not say how such
a possible change would be ac-
complished.
Arugues Against Government.
Gen. de Gaulle cited his arms
stand as a point in his argument
that the present French govern
ment is too weak. He called the
news conference to comment on
local elections the last two Sun
days. In these elections his right
ist Rally of the French People
came out as the strongest single
party, but still inferior to the
three-party bloc making up the
government.
Meanwhile, NorWay's Parlia-
ment approved the Atlantic treaty
text and authorized the govern
ment to sign it in Washington
April 4. The vote was 130 to 13,
with two Labor representatives
and the Communists in opposi-
ton.
Spain and Portugal completed
10 days of talks under their
Iberian pact, clearing the way
for Portugal to join in the At
lantic alliance, Madrid dispatches
reported.

gan debate on joining the alliance

MOVE press agents are having
lVl field day with Miss Corinne
Calvet, a French movie actress
now in Hollywood. Not since the
lush days of Simone Simon have
they had so pert and willing a
subject.
In one breath Miss Calvet will
inform you that she never eats
meat (nothing but fish and fowl,
that she loses weight by willing
it away. that she is an expert at
jujitsu, that she is descended from
one of the mistresses of Louis XIV,
and that she was named after a
bottle of brandy.
She also makes good photo copy.
The little French star has
been compared to Rita Hay

Also she's prettier.
She has been two years in Holly
wood learning English and is now
ready for her American debut in

the sole woman opposite Burt

from "Casablanca" are in the cast.
