German Social Democrats
Ask Army Cost Be Shared
By the Associoted Press

FRANKFURT, Germany. Oct
30.-Dr. Kurt Schumacher, head
of Germany's Social Democratic
Party. insisted yesterday that
West Germany should not have to
pay for Allied troop reinforce
ments being sent here.
He demanded that such costs
be divided proportionately among
all the Western European coun-
tries which the troops are de-
signed to protect. Increased oc-
cupation costs will create "a social
catastrophe against which (army)
divisions would be powerless," DR..
Schumacher argued.

League Requests
BuC Information

Administrator Frank j. Collopy
of the Ohio Bureau of Unemploy-
ment Compensation Wednesday
stated his meeting with a group
of some thirty men and women
from various parts of the state
was arranged by Governor Frank
j. Lausche at the request Of Of
ficals Of the Young Progressive
League of America.
He said Governor Lauschc ar
ranged the appointment SO indi-
vidual members Of the delegat-
ion which called on him could get
first-hand information and advice
from the Bureaus administrator
on their problems.
Four members of the delegation
protested the Bureaus delay in
the payment Of four specific claims
for benefits The administrator
promised to investigate their
claims. The Administrator pro-
missed to investigate their claims.
The others in the delegation
asked general questions as to why
all checks could not be mailed
sooner after claims for monetary
benefits are made.
Collopy told the delegation the
Bureau is anxious to make all
payments at the earliest possible
date, but reminded those present
that certain administrative pro-
cedures were required by law
For more than an hour he an
sWered about the Bureaus op-
erations under the law. He tod
how the Bureau is now handling
monetary claims filed by a week
ly average of more than 155, COO
persons as compared with 64CO0
in 1913 and 98,000 in 1919
Collopy cited the national min
imum standard or rule Of thumb"
for Bureaus of Unemployment
Compensation IN all other states
was for the payment of so per-
cent of all checks isued within
two weeks after the claim for a
particular week of monetary ben
efits is filed in the local office.
Ohio is now paying 80 percent OF
all checks within a two-week
period
He said most of the complaints
about late checks arise from con-
tested claims which must be set
tied before a check can be issued.
Other delays occasionally rise
where claims require wage re-
cords or separation notices from
employers before the Bureau can
make a legal determination.

Party Given For
Hospital Vets
At ChiIlico+he

As part of its program Of en-
entertainment or men at the Vet
Grams Hospital, Chillicothe, Vol
unteer Services of Madison Coun-
ty Chapter American Red Cross,
had a special party February II
at the hospital.
The open house for Valentines
day celebration. was in the lib-
rary from to o'clock for 35
of the hospitals privileged pat
tents.
A group of women from Mad
ison county went down, taking
with them 20 dozens of fancy
cookies, baked and donated by
members of the Harmony Needle
club Of London. These with punch
were served during the afternoon.
No set program was planned.
Some of the women played bridge
and other games or any entertain
ment that pleased the fancy of
their guests.
Those from London who pro-
Vlded this special pleasure for the
men, were: Mrs. II. A. Bauman,
Sr., Mrs. Ora Van Horn, Mrs.
Earl Ballenger, Mrs. Raymond
Mabe, Mrs. p Z. Bacon and Mrs.
Lowell Snyder.
Another part of the program IF
the chapters Volunteer Services
is the weekly visit of any women
who care to offer their help,
going down to the hospital to do
mending and look after other
needs Of the men that must be
taken care of by outside workers.
Madison county also has its
first two Gray Ladies, Mrs. H. A.
Bauman Sr., Of London and Mrs.
Frank Zeeck of Mt. Sterling, who
go down at stated times for work
that is done by this special corps.
After a prescribed course of
training, these two take their
turn in bringing to the men a
touch from the outside world
that, in the opinion Of the heads
of the administration, is invalu-
able in keeping the men happy,
and in some instances offecting
cures.
Schedules for the Gray Ladies
are made up by Miss Evelyn Mil
Ter, Red Cross field director at
the hospital.
A typical day for Gray Lady
calls for circulating through the
wards with trays Of candy, Gig
arettes, smoking tobacco, station
cry games, writing letters play
ing the piano and numerous other
duties that will help rehabilitate
the patients.
There is too, the push pro-
gram for the shock treatment
wards. The program is SO called
because part of the treatment is
to keep the men busy after a
treatment, dulling the effect by
keeping minds occupied as fas
as possible.
Many questions are asked the
Gray Ladies about themselves and
the outside world, and they must
be ready at all times with a
creditable answer. The orientas-
ion of the training in psychiatry,
enables them, they say, to cope

Teacher Who Quit in Rockville
To Meet With Superintendent

A young Montgomery County
teacher whose resignation was
protested by A parents of East
Rockville Elementary School chill
dren will confer with Supt. Edwin
w. Broome tomorrow regarding
her reinstatement.
Miss Cecilia Moody, 23-year-old
Catholic University graduate. will
meet with DR.. Broome and her
school principal. Mrs. Lillian
Kline, to iron out professional diff
ferences. The parents want Miss
Moody reinstated in any event.
Parents Defend Her.
The parents took up the defense
of Miss M body last week after the
teacher resigned over criticism of
her work. The group. who said she
was "unjustly treated" sought the
aid of the Parents League for
Curriculum improvement, whose
president, John H. Hiser. appeared
with some of the parents before
the Board of Education Tuesday
Miss Moody said she decided to
bow out after DR.. Broome told her
Evening star., 1950-10-15

a delegation of parents objected
to her teaching. A conference
yesterday between DR.. Broome,
Miss Moody and some of the par
|ents disclosed. however. that this
was misunderstanding and that
only one or two parents had been
critical of Miss Moody. The others
were enthusiastic about her work.
No Methods Involved.
DR.. Broome said no teaching
methods were involved in the case,
only details in managing the chill
dren. He said he arranged for
Miss Moody to observe other ele-
mentary classes to study class con-
duct procedures, but she resigned
"as complete surprise to me-"
The parents, however, said the
matter concerned methods of
teaching reading and added, eve
deplore a situation that will per-
NIT the complaint of one or two
persons to accomplish the dis
missal of a teacher whose work is
approved by the majority of
parents"
