Fox Quits Primary Race;
Turner 10 Face Miller
BY The Associosed Pres.

SALISBURY, April 6.-with-
drawal of Hamilton p. Fox as a
prospective candidate for Con-
gress apparently left State Sem
ator Turner Of Queen Annes. as
the main Democratic hope to un-
seat Representative Miller. the
Republican veteran.
Mr.. Fox ended long speculation
that he would seek the Demo-
cratic nomination for the First
District seat in the House by
saying he will run for reelection
as States attorney of Wicomico.
Democratic leaders on the
Eastern Shore had been wary
that Mr.. Fox and Mr.. Turner
would hook up in a primary that
would have divided the party and
lessen it's chance of beating MIR.
Miller.
Mr.. Miller announced Satur-
day he would seek reelection to
his fifth term. This also put to
rest some belief that he would
retire to await a prospective ap-
pointment to the Federal bench
in Baltimore next year.

Annual Roundup
OF Toys BY LFWC
Announced Here

Calling all Toys! Only 19 shop
ping days til Christmas! Really
shopping days is just what the
London Federation of Women's
Clubs means, when it sends out its
annual appeal for toys for its an
nual Christmas for the children of

Mrs. T. j. Selby, Jr., is chairman

great and painstaking work each
year rehabilitating the toys that
are donated which need repairing
before they are ready for distribu-
ton. 1t is one of the things they
do during the year which gives
them the greatest pleasure and in
order that they may do their best,
they ask that the toys be gotten
to them at once.
This year, instead of at the City
Building, contributions are to be
left at the City Garage, which is
one door north of 10 North Wal
nut Street. Here the work shop is
being set up and suggest the work
men, any time around noon is the
best time, since the building is US
ually open at that time.
If it is not convenient to deliver
toys, Mrs. Selby has volunteered
to call at the home of any person
wishing to donate used toys and
see that they get Immediately to
the work shop. A call to Mrs. Sell
by, telephone 162, will assure de-
livery at once.

County To Host
Paris IFYE Guest

Giles Herbet, an agriculture
student from Paris, France, will
soon arrive in Madison County
through the International Farm
Youth Exchange, according to Bea-
trice Cleveland, State IFYE pro-
ject leader, and Assistant State
All Club Leader.
Giles will stay at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Delbert Dorm of near
Sedalia, Ohio. Other members of
the Dorm family are Julia, Jean
and Marjorie.
He will live with the Dorns from
December 18 until January ID.
After that time GILES will return
to his home in France.
Giles will be observing our
American way of life. He will
work and live with the. Dorns to
learn how Americans do things,
what we do, why we do them, and
what our attitudes and beliefs are.
Giles will also tell about his
French home and his people.
The International Farm Youth
Exchange provides for farm youth
from the United States to live and
work with farm families in other
countries for 4 to 6 months, and
for farm youth from cooperating
countries to come to the United
States to live and work on farms
here.
The program is divided into two
phases-a summer exchange with
northern hemisphere countries,
and a fall and winter exchange
with countries in the tropical zone
and the southern hemisphere.
The project is dedicated to the
belief that understanding is the
foundation of world peace. By CIV
ing farm youth an opportunity to
learn another way of life by living
it, the project helps rural young
people to understand and appreci-
ate the problems and attitudes of
similar people in other countries.
The delegates share their exper-
fences with rural organizations and
civic organizations. Returning Ohio
delegates have given 793 talks to
68,125 people. Madison County
groups have had numerous ex-
changes speak about their exper-
fences.
The program in Ohio is conduct
ed by the Cooperative Extension
Service along with a student COM
mittee in the college of Agricul-
ture, Ohio State University, and
also Farm Bureau, Grange, and
Vocational Agriculture Depart
ment.
No federal or state government
funds finance the exchange. State
contributions are raised by youth
organizations, individuals, service
clubs, and industries. At the pres
ent time, the treasury of IFYE
committee contains less than half
the amount needed to send Ohio
delegates this year. The success of
this program depends upon the
support of those interested in fur
thering understanding between
rural people everywhere. This is a
good project for any group. They
will be taking a positive step to
help develop world peace.
