The National Conference on Soil
citations today released its first
report and recommendations in
drive to curb racketeering and
take the commercialized profit out
Of charity solicitations.
The report, issued by Randall M.
Kuhlman, Secretary of the Cleve-
land Chamber of Commerce and
Chairman of the National Confer
ence on Solicitations, contains ten
basic policies recommended for the
consideration of the contributing
public and soliciting organizations.
The National Conference on Soil
citations was formed on April 22nd
at a meeting in Cleveland attended
by 125 delegates from 80 cities
representing Chambers Of Com
merce, Better Business Bureaus,
industrial concerns, city and state
governments, fund-granting foun-
dations, Community Chests, the
American Association Of Fund
Raising Counsel and others directly
interested in protecting the charity
dollar.
In issuing the report Mr.. Ruhl-
man stated, Fund raising for
charitable, welfare and civic pur-
poses is a multi-million dollar busi-
ness throughout the nation. The
Conference does not want to stop
contributions but hopes to find
ways Of protecting the income of
necessary and worthwhile agencies
and to better inform the contrib
uting public on campaign costs and
the use Of the funds collected"
The report approved and adopted
by the Conference Is as follows:
The National Conference on
Solicitations, meeting at Cleveland,
Ohio, on April %, 2S, 1854
approved and adopted the follow
ing basic policies for the consider
alton of both the contributing pub
lie and soliciting organizations.
/. Charitable Solicitations. The
National Conference on Solicita-
lions Is not attempting in any way
to restrict or hamper charitable,
welfare or civic appeals. The sole
purpose Of the Conference is to
seek ways to educate the contrib
uting public to insist on the great
est possible utilization Of their
charity dollars.
2. Prominent Sponsorship. The
National Conference on Solicita-
tions urges representative citizens
to refrain from permitting their
names to be used as campaign
sponsors unless they are personally
willing to take an active and su-
pervisory part in the campaign and
the following disbursal of the
funds.
3. Community Control. The Ma
tional Conference on Solicitations
is of the firm opinion that all local
communities should have some type
Of screening, evaluating and re-
porting body for the mutual pro-
lection of the contributing public
and necessary and bona fide chari-
table, welfare and civic agencies,
and strongly urges that communi-
ties not currently having this serv-

Racketeering In Charity
Solicitations Of Funds

ice should move Immediately for
the establishment of such body,
either by ordinance or by some
existing local organizations which
commands the confidence and re-
spect of the community.
4. Cooperation. 1t is urged that
all civic appeals committees -
Chambers of Commerce, Better
Business Bureaus, Governmental,
volunteer or industrial bodies-con-
fer at regular intervals in order to
consolidate national and local
thought and action in regard to
charitable, welfare and civic soli-
citations.
5. Exploitation Of Children. The
National Conference on Solicita-
tons is opposed to the exploitation
and use of children in the solicita-
ton Of funds.
6. und-Raising Promotion on
Commission Basis. Civic, Religious,
welfare and patriotic clubs and or
ganizations which depend on the
general public for their operating
funds are particularly cautioned
against undertaking any solicita-
tions campaign which is handled
by paid professionals who are en-
ployed under a contract with com
pensation based on a percentage
of the amount raised.
z. Telephone Solicitations. No
contribution should be given any
consideration if presented by an
unknown or paid solicitor by use
of telephone.
8. Unordered Merchandise. This
Conference strongly urges that
prospective donors refuse to make
contributions for unordered mer-
chandise received through the mail.
Attention is called to the fact that
such unordered merchandise places
the recipient under no obligation to
remit for the same, nor TO expend
personal funds for the return of
such merchandise to the sender.
9. Solicitation by Uniformed
Government Employees. The Con-
ference disapproves any fund-rais-
ing activity by municipal, county,
state or federal employees in uni
form.
10. Budgets and Audits. The
Conference believes that all soil
citing organizations have an OBJ
legation to make readily accessible
to the public their planned budgets,
financial statements and public
audits.
The National Conference on Soli-
citations recognizes the complexity
of the problems involved and is
not at this time attempting to
enunciate all of the cardinal prin-
ciples which should be applied in
the consideration of contributions
and solicitations. Further recon-
mendations will be presented for
consideration after more detailed
and mature study.

, say many Of the easily broken
bones, stopped shoulders and other
signs of old age are due to not
eating the right foods-and most
often milk-for long periods of
time.
The other food value milk is
richest in Sriboflavin-one quart
of milk will more than meet your
days needs for this B vitamin.
Let's see what quantity of other
foods you would have to eat to
give you the same amount of rib
oflavin as l quart OF milk: 81.
ounces of liver, II large eggs, ll2
pounds dried beans, = 1/3 pounds
beef, IA ounces cheese, or l l/3
pounds leafy greens. These foods
also are valuable for other reasons,
even though they may not contain
as much riboflavin as milk. Ribo-
flavin, or Vitamin B-2 promotes
health by helping body cells use
oxygen. 1t is especially helpful in
keeping the hair and skin healthy
and prolonging the active span
of life. This is called the keep
young vitamin. Surely these are
reasons enough why adults as well
as children need milk.
Tabor City tribune. (Tabor City, N.C.) 1946-1991, 1954-01-13

vitamin called riboflavin. Not only
is milk rich in these two food
values, but it is almost impossible
to get enough each day unless you
include some milk in your diet.
Here are the amounts of some
foods you would have to eat to
get the same amount of calcium as
you get from one quart Of milk:
62l pound cabbage, 81 pounds po-
tatoes. % oranges, 80 eggs, or 712
pounds of carrots. These foods are
the richest fruit, vegetable and
animal sources of calcium. 1t is
important to remember that al
though these foods are not very
rich in calcium, they are valuable
in the diet for other reasons. They
are rich in other food values in
which milk is low. No one food
will meet all of your needs. 1t
takes variety.
Why is calcium so important?
Because it builds strong bones,
teeth and is needed by all cells
of the body. You hear grown-ups
say, But my teeth and bones are
already built-why do l need cal
cium?" The answer iS-Your body
uses calcium everyday to regulate
the heart beat, TO make the blood
clot when you cut your finger, to
make the fluid which bathcS tired
muscles and nerves TO help you
overcome fatigue, and to help re-
build cells in your hair, nails and
other parts of the body that are
wearing out every minute. If you
don't eat enough calcium rich
foods each day, your body takes
from your bones enough calcium
TO carry on its work. If this hap
pens too often, bones become de-
mineralized and get soft or brittle
and break or bend easily. Doctors

not to skimp on any of the other
foods needed. In addition to milk,
you need five servings of fruits
and vegetables, two servings of
protein food (meat, eggs, fish or
poultry bread and butter or some
other Vitamin A fat.
Let's see what is in milk that
makes it such an important food
for everybody. 1t is a good pro-
tein food and contains many min
erals and vitamins. But the two
food values milk is richest in are
the mineral, calcium, and the B

Highlighis
By Nancy Hardie and Nancy Royal

Well, school days have begun
again and we have to turn to
thoughts OF those mid-term exams
coming up next week. It's sorta
hard 10 settle Gown once again to
those dear old books. essays, and
themes after SC many days of leiS-
ure.
The teachers are suffering these
first few days after Christmas hol-
days. 1t seems as If everyone has
to tell everyone else all of the
exciting news which took place
| during the past two weeks. Main
topic seems to be who got what,
when, where. and why for Chris
mas. Several of the girls are wear
ing new watcheS-proud owners of
the cherished gifts are Betsy Long,
Hazel Norris. Naomi Williams,
Edna Norris, Marvelann Williams
, and Mary Pearl Simmons. Need
less to say all of the watches
weren't left by Santa Claus. There
are also a lot of rings and neck
laceS, etc. being flashed by the
lucky receivers.
II seems as if there are several
boys and girls who are kind of
lonesome since those college stu
dents have returned to their re-
Spective schools.
Well, it is time to get back to
sports as the Aggies and Farmer

MILK CAN MAKE A

Milk can make a difference in
the way you look and feel. Did
you get your quart of milk yester-
day-or the day before? If you
have gone without it too often,
you may not be as well off as you
think. Everybody-young and old
would do well to get a quart of
milk every day. Adults can get
along on a pint if they make sure

expectancy at birth has risen
from 46.6 years in 1911 to 68.4

More Red Delay Tactics Seen
Few Washington Officials Expect Four-Power Talks
IN Berlin Will Yield Any Worthwhile Results
Constantine Brown

Secretary Of State Dulles
fears that the forthcoming
four-power conference in Ber-
lin may be a very lengthy af-
fair which will require his alb
sence from Washington for
some time.
Judging from the fact that
the allied and Soviet repre-
sentatives have not yet reached
a conclusion of the four-power
air safety talks which began in
Berlin late in April, 1858, after
Soviet fighter planes shot down
a British Lincoln bomber, this
suspicion seems fully justified.
The Reds always have OBJ
tanned their political goals by
stubborn delaying tactics. They
expect to achieve similar re-
suits at the high-level confer
ence in Berlin this month by
wearing out the allies.
While few officials in WASH
ington have any real hope that
the Berlin conference will OBJ
tain any constructive results,
continuous exchanges of views
are being carried out with Lon
don. There is genuine concern
that the Muscovites may sue
ceed in breaking up the po-
litical harmony which exists
today between the United
States and her European allies.
The British government is
on record. as favoring giving
the U. S. S. r. security guar
antees" by a declaration from
the allies that the present Red
boundaries in Europe will not
be interfered with by the West
through propaganda or other
peaceful methods.
The State Department is at
tempting to obtain an explana-
ton from London as to what
guarantees the Kremlin is
ready to give us that it will not
attempt directly or indirectly
to extend the Red encroach-
mentS further.
