Much of the so-called special

is that purchasers of such

Why give to the Community
Chest?
In a fact-kit issued to volun-
teer speakers, the Chest presents
five case stories illustrating how
Chest money helps people. Here
are the stories:
Dora, 4 and Solomon, S, were
born in a DIP camp at Linz,
Austria. Their parents. Mr.. and
Mrs. Bernard S.. used to live in
Wilno, Poland. But they lost
their home to Nazi occupation
forces and are in America today
only because they hid successfully
for two years in barn and
escaped from two concentration
camps.
The International Refugee Or
ganization brought the family to
the new worldr-a world of new
hope. But there were problems
here, too-learning to speak Eng
liSh, finding work. arranging care
for the two children.
Finds a Friend.
At Barney Neighborhood House
in Southwest Washington, Mrs.
S. found that the director, Mrs.
Jean Stanley Goodrich. could
speak some German. She told
her troubles-weeping. Sympa-
Ithetically. Mrs. Goodrich took
steps.
The children were enrolled in
the nursery school. Mrs. Good
rich began teaching their mother
English. Mrs. S. entered Ameri-
|canization School and soon she'll
be ready to take her first Job.
She says she can't express her
thanks well enough to Barney

On Naming Board

The North Washington Council
Of Citizens Associations is not
going to take a stand on the issue
of who should appoint members of
the Board of Education when that
question comes up at the hearing
on the Commissioners. reorganiza-
tion plan on December 81.
The group, meeting last night.
was urged to oppose putting ap-
pointments in the hands of the
Commissioners as opening the way
to ''the rankest kind of politics. !"
But other members of the council
argued that "the situation couldn't
be any worse" than it is now. with
District judges making appoint
mentS.
The council was agreed, how
ever, in its opposition to other
provisions of the reorganization
plan. At the hearing, it will re-
commend that:
/. The Recreation and Library
Boards should remain separate
from the Commissioners control.
2. The upkeep of such institu-
tions as the Zoo and National
parks should be a Federal. and not

3. Title to property purchased
with District funds should be
transferred to the District, along
with its control.
Earlier, the group heard Traffic

Assistant Director Wallace Braun

costing no more than 10 cents a
day per car to relieve downtown
