They are the Boy Scouts, Camp
Fire Girls, Girl Scouts, Jewish
Community Center, Y.M.C.A., and
Y.W.C.A. The young members,
their parents, the boards of di-
rectors, and the trained person
mel provide a positive force for
keeping Montgomery County
good place in which to live.
Responsibility for promoting
these Chest organizations is jointly
shared. Three levels of participa-
ton are necessary.
First, Montgomery County resi-
dents assume responsibility,
through contributions to the Chest,
for maintenances of executive Off
ces, salaries and transportation of
trained personnel, and the produc-
ton and distribution of publica
tons.
Second, the organizations as
sumo responsibility for making
their services available to as many
members as possible, regardless of
religion, race or origin. They must
do this through volunteer boards of
directors and group leaders. Com
munity Chests allow only salaries
or payment to executive directors
or staff members of the respective
agencies.
Third, each small unit in the
County, whether called troop"
"circle," team" or group" as
sumes responsibility for maintain
ing its own activities. This may
be done through dues, benefit en-
tertainments, cookies or candy
sales, or by any method the unit
wishes to adopt. However they
could not raise the 100000 allo-
Gated by the chest to the six
youth services.
The Montgomery County Com
munity Chest, like Chests all over
the United States and Canada,
takes care of deficits that result
from the difference between rev.
enue from dues and special prof.
ects and the budgetary require
ments of the services. These bud
gets have been subjected to the
most careful study and represent
only basic needs.
Even bare essentials were not

Attend Air Force Concert
Thirty students thrilled to the
music of the U. S. Air Force Sym
rhonic Orchestra and Band on
Wednesday night, October 18. The
program included an a cappella
rendition of "The Lords Prayer"
by the Singing Sergents." Two
interesting arrangements, one of
Stephen Foster melodies, the other
of George M. Cohan's tunes, were
presented by the entire ensemble.
There are to be other free con-
certs of this nature in the near
future. The concerts are held at
Lisner Auditorium and are well
worth the time spent listening to
really good music.

"This is more than a local
issue"
IF Maryland should decide dur
ing this time of stress, when our
own sons are again fighting on a
foreign soil to protect our hb-
critics, that the ODER Law should
be abandoned, we shall have
opened the gates to the subver-
sives. We shall also have let down
every other state, where it is the
desire to have a law modelled
after the ODER Law"
According to State Cenator Will
mer C. Carter, chairman of the
Maryland Committee Against IN
American Activities, more than 100
organizations in all are working in
support of the ODER Law. Every
county has it's own chairman and
organization working for the Law,
he said. Chairman for Montgom-
cry County is George C. Warner,
Jr.

y AS the States voters prepare
10 take a stand on the issue at the
polls next Tuesday, Capt. Lemuel
M. Stevens, commander of the
American Legion, Department of
Maryland, urged voters ITO vote for
the Ober Law, maintain our free
dom and smash the reds at home.
"The men and women who have
been called upon in the hours of
their country's need, who have
fought in wars to protect our soil
against an aggressor, are in the
front line in the campaign to have
the Ober Law retained" said Capt.
Stevens, whose home is on the
Eastern Shore.
"The ODER Law is a good law.
It is a model law, in fact. The
Communists realize this, and they
are doing everything they can to
get it removed from among our
Maryland statutes. They know
and most certainly we men and
women who are fighting to keep
the ODER Lew in effect know
that, if they can cause the Ober
Law to be abolished, they will
have scored victory which will
bring rejoicing to Communists
everywhere.

The Montgomery County Board
of Education announced this week
plan for the observance of Ma
tional Education Week November
6-10) in the schools of the County.
The observance of Education Week

ucation Association, the American

According to the letter to local
Parent Teacher Associations from
Mrs. Herman M. Wilson, President
of the Board parents are invited
to visit schools during the week

dent of each local Parent-Teacher
Association to arrange for small
committee of parents to visit
schools in other sections of the
county ito observe children at
work, room conditions, buildings
under construction, new buildings
recently completed and buildings
proposed for enlargement or to be
located on new sites"
Mrs. Wilson, speaking for the
Board of Education, called atten-
ton to materials prepared by the
Public Relations Committee OF the
Montgomery County Education

Education Week in which children
were to invite parents to visit
schools; parents to receive infor-
nation from the schools; observe
children in action at work, in

Embarrassing to a member Of the
Chest. More frequently will such
requests occur should citizens con-
tinue to fail in meeting the Chest
goals.
This minimum of financial help
means that less than 25 percent of
our Sabotage children and the
young adults are able to partici-
pate in Red Feather activities. 1t
also means heavier tax burden in
caring for the problems of the rs
percent who are left out. 1t brings
hundreds of complaints like the
following:
"Mary wants to be a Brownie
but there's no room for her" |
can't get Tom in Scouts" eve
need help in starting a Camp Fire
unit" "Jewish Community Center
ought to allow more in day camp"
"Mera 'Y' Cottages should be
opened" The YIN. hasn't started
that athletic program for our
pupils.
The answer to all is that too
few dollars in Community Chest
result in too few trained directors
tc start new units and oversee
them. More money for the 1851 Red
Feather family will widen the
family circle and reduce commun-
lty problems growing out of a
lack of youth and young adult
services in Montgomery County.

Community Cleanup
Makes Neighborhood
Safer, Healthier

Community spring cleanup cam
paigns have become a colored and
white American tradition. More
than 10000 communities observe
cooperative cleanup in the interest
of safety and health, reports the
National Board of Fire Underwrit-
ers, this week.
Beyond the obvious benefits of a
more attractive neighborhood and
healthier place for children to
grow, the National Board points
out there are many added benefits
that a cleanup brings. Fewer
fires, reduced juvenile delinquency
and lower disease rates are some
advantages of a clean community.
In your neighborhood you can
join in community cleanup by
contracting the local fire depart
ment, Chamber of Commerce, safe
ty council or other civic group to
see what plans have been made and
how you can fit in with them.
If there has been no organized
effort, get together with your
neighbors and look over your own
street. You may find eyesores or
vacant lots with collected rubbish
and other fire hazards. Refuse
filled lots are often breeding places
for flies, mosquitoes, rats and other
disease bearers. Clean them up.
The lots will then provide more
play space for children. You can
probably make a neighborhood
project of equipping these vacant
lots as play areas for children.
After your neighborhood project
is under way, get other neighbor--
hoods to spruce up too. You'll help
make the entire community bet
ter place to live.

Baha'i New Year
To Be Observed

The Phoenix Bahai community
will celebrate the Feast of Nav
Ruz on Monday evening, March 90
at 8 o'clock with an appropriate
program at Assembly Hall, 173S
West Van Buren Street. March q
is New Years day on the Baha'i
calendar, the new year starting at
sunset on the night of the 10th, the
date of the vernal equinox.
Members of the Bahai commu-
nifty throughout the world observe
this day as their most joyous festi-
val, commemorating not only the
renewal of life in nature but also
renewal of faith and spiritual vital
ity for the human soul.
March 81, 1850, on the old calen-
dar is the first day in the Baha'i
year 107 for the followers of
Baha'u'llah, the year 1874 having
witnessed the birth of a new world
faith and the ending of long his
toric era.
The Baha'i calendar consists of 19
months of 10 days each, with four
AAAN$A ~SNACAJ NoJo 11IOC1lCo OCLWCC1l
the 18th and 10Th months. The
Bahai month preceding New Year
is a month of fasting, when men,
bers are expected to refrain from
food and drink between sunrise and
sunset. During their fasting period
the Baha'is use prayers revealed for
this purpose.
The fact that a new world CAL
endar is under such widespread dis
cusSion, the Baha'is believe, proves
once more that when a prophet
brings a new message his influence
eventually results in the adoption
of a new calendar. At present the
world uses several calendars lack
ing any coordination example,
the Jewish, Christian and Islamic-
whereas one universal calendar is
urgently required.

chapters OF the society Wnlcn mas
set the statewide goal of this years
campaign at 100000. These in
clude a lily sale, which, in most
communities, will be on Easter Sat-
urday, April 8.
The drive ends Easter Sunday,
making the campaign one week
shorter than in previous years. This
calls for a more intensive effort by
the society's volunteer workers
than ever before.
In Phoenix and Tucson, the drive
got under way with benefit shows
by Gene Autry's Melody Ranch
troupe, with Autry heading the cast
in person and his horses, Cham
pion and Little Champion, doing
their part.
The money raised will finance the
six activities of the Society for
Crippled Children for the coming
year. These are help for the hard
of-hearing, speech correction, spe-
cial education for handicapped
children, including the homebound,
a cerebral palsy program, summer
camping for handicapped children,
and rehabilitation of patients
medically and educationally.
The work of the society does not
duplicate that of any other agency,
the drive announcement said. It
fills in gaps and takes up where
others leave off.
Sixty per cent of the money
raised remains in the county where
it is given for local use. Thirty
two per cent goes to the state or
