Jefferson Woman
ADOPTS Czech
FatherIess Boy
Life of Misery Made
Better BY Kindness

Miss Minerva Harbage, r. r.
/, West jefferson, Ohio, has
adopted Gerhard Matzner, a II
year old Czechoslovakian boy,
through Foster Parents Plan for
War Children, Inc, it was an
nounced last week by Plan head
quarters at 55 West 42nd Street,
New York City.
Foster Parents Plan has cared
for more than $4,000 European
war children. 1t is now operating
in Belgium, England, France,
Western Germany, Greece, Hol-
land, Italy and Korea, and is
helping unfortunate and impro-
veriShed children of fifteen diff
ferent nationalitieS without regard
to race or creed.
The Plan has recently establish
ed field headquarters in Korea to
bring aid and rehabilitation to
the thousands of needy children.
Foster Parents Plan for War
Children does not do mass relief;
each child is treated as an individ-
al Adoption" is financial, not
legal. The Foster Parent merely
promises to contribute $500
monthly towards the child's sup
port, for at least a year. In return,
the Foster Parent receives a
brief history of the child and a
photograph, and correspondence
through the Plan office is en-
couraged, since the children need
the feeling of being loved and be-
longing to someone, someplace.
Gerhard was born into a life of
misery and has never known any
of the joys of childhood. His par
entS were not married although
the father was about to return
from the fighting so that the
marriage could take place when
he was killed in action. He was
a Czech and had been conScripted
into the German Army. The moth
er worked as a domestic on
farm and continued to live there
after Gerhard's birth. In June
1916 she and the boy were ex-
PEELED from Czechoslovakia in ac-
cordance with the Potsdam Treaty
as being of Ethnic German origin.
They were transported to a refu-
gee camp in Peiting and then
given private accommodation in
a farm house. There they have
one room barely furnished and
without running water which must
be drawn from the yard. Life is
a weary struggle for mother and
child, trying to exist on a monthly
income of $17.60 which is partly
Public Assistance and part Or
phan'S Insurance grants. Rent,
light and fuel costs S5.81 monthly
which leaves little enough for all
other needs for the two.
The mother has been deprived
for so many years of proper food
and she has lived under such
strain that her health is now so
poor that she can scarcely even
look after the room. She manages
to keep it clean, however, in spite
of her condition. She is suffering
from heart and nerve trouble.
She and Gerhard have no relatives
and the future is entirely without
hope for them.
The adoption" of Gerhard will
assure him of a monthly cash
grant of $500 plus Plan Relief
supplies. This aid will be a bless
ing, indeed, for the poor boy will
now be certain of winter cloth
ing and better food. At present
Gerhard has no clothing that is
not too small and does not have
an overcoat.
Gerhard is a nice boy with a
Shy manner. He is an average
student in school and likes work.

ing around the farm in his spare
time. He also helps his mother
lot. Gerhard'S ambition is to be-
come a mechanic. This kindly
interest, together with vital ma
terial aid viii help and encourage
Gerhard so much and will bring
a little cheer into his drab home.

These Communists Were Deported

of the fight against Commu-
nists in America following
World War l.. not World War
II. The Attorney General of
the United States, the Hon.
A. Mitchell Palmer, had
learned of dangerous Commu-
mist activity as alien property
custodian prior to his ap-
pointment to head the De-
partm ent of Justice. He
secured additional funds from
Congress to widen the scope
OF his Investigations. It was
at his insistence that the Anti
Sedition Act of October l6,
1918. was passed.
The Joint Legislative Com
mittee was the Joint Legisla-
tive Committee of the New
York State Legislature, with
prominent Republican State
Senator Clayton Lusk in the
chair. This committee was
concerned particularly with
Communists in New York City.
but its report was widely used
elsewhere in the country.
The U. s. s. Buford sailed
from New York December II,
1919, and delivered its passen-
gers safely in Leningrad, then
still called Petrograd.
Why can't we handle our
Communists in the same way
today? There are two reasons.
First. most of our Communists
today are American citizens,
not aliens. Second, the aliens
and other suspected Commu-
nists are effectively hiding be-
hind the fifth amendment
and keeping their Red party
membership secret. It's not so
easy today to prove a man is
a Communist. e

Science Set for CIoserLook at Mars

TALLAHASSEE Scientists
in eight nations are set to start
a round-the-clock watch on
Mars.
The red planet soon will
swing closer to the earth than
at any time in the last Is
years. The scientists plan to
study its weather and temper
ature-and the possibility it
SuStains some form of life.
The So-called Mars Com
mittee" includes astronomers,
physicists and meteorologists
from the United States, France,
Italy, Turkey, India, Japan,
Australia and South Africa.
The international group was
organized to coordinate re-
search to be conducted next
summer. when the planet will
be 40.3 million miles away from
us. and in 1856, when it will be
only 35.4 million miles away.
The committee met in Flag
staff. Ariz., last october and
plans to meet again in Wash
ington next month.
The average distance be-
tween earth and Mars when
the two planets pass each other
is 48.6 million miles, though
they can get as close as 34.6
million miles. Because Mars
moves around the sun in an
ellipse, what astronomers call
favorable oppositions" come
only at long intervals.
DR.. Seymour L. Hess, profess
sor of meteorology at Florida
State University here and a
member of the Mars Commit
tee, said the group is seeking
to organize chain of obser-
vatories around the earth to
keep the watch on Mars.
In that way, as day breaks
on one side of the earth, OBJ
servers on the darkened side
can take up the study. If the
Evening star., 1953-12-20

weather is cloudy at one sta
ton, another can continue the
vigil.
What is the Mars Committee
hoping to discover?
First, it will check the ac-
curacy of earlier observations.
Then it hopes to gather
more clues on the still-de-
bated question of vegetation
on Mars. Dark areas on the
planet go through seasonal
changes from various shades
of blue green to brown.
Many competent observers
have been unable to account
for these changes except by
attributing them to some form
of vegetation-perhaps hardy
hchenS or MOSES which could
withstand severe and rapid
changes in temperature. The
vegetation theory is not proved,
however. It's hoped new photo
graphs will shed more light.
The committee is anxious to
get further information on the
controversial canal-like mark
ings which some observers say
they have seen on the surface
of the planet. Other astrono-
mers say they never have been
able to discern them.
The group wants to learn
more about the planets wealth.
er. A half dozen or so of the
nations most highly skilled
amateur astronomers equipped
with 8 or 10 inch tele-
scopes will assist in this.
Temperatures of different
areas on the planet will be
measured with instruments so
sensitive they can show the
difference between the tenn
perature at the Martian
equator and that at the
planets poles.
