MarysviIIe, kenton
Protest Turnpike

The Chambers of Commerce of
Kenton and Marysville joined in
a protest against the proposed
route of the north-south turnpike
spur from Toledo to Columbus.
The MarySville c. of c. protest
ed that the pike as proposed would
not solve their traffic problems,
while the Kenton c. of G. pointed
out that congestion on routes %
and 81 would not be solved, nor
would Michigan and Illinois traf-
fic drive halfway across the state
to get on the pike.
While there have been indivi-
dual protests and arguments
against the proposed location of
the pike from Madison County
residents, no normal organization
for protest has been announced.

Monarehs Prey To
Raiders, ALA

London's Red Raiders were as
sured of at least a piece of the
Mid-Six League crown following
their win over Marysville Friday
by a score of AT to IA. 1t was the
fourth straight league game win,
and the sixth straight win of the
season for the unbeaten squad.
London is the only unbeaten team
in the league.
Prior to the contest, Marysville
was given the possibility of scoring
an upset by several persons. 1t
rather looked that way at the be-
ginning, with the Monarchs draw
ing first blood after a London FUN
BILE, bit Tingley scored from the II
to tie the score at the end of the
first period. In the last 2 minutes
and As seconds of the second quar-
ter, London racked up three tbs;
Bill Carter picking up one on a
punt blocked by Dave Hume, Ting
ley one more from a pass intercept
ton by Don Baker and one for Ell
mer Ramey on pass from Ting
ley. At the half, London led % to z
as the Queen was presented to the
spectators.
Carter got his second score in
the third quarter.
Both Harris and Ramey scored
in the fourth quarter, as did
Marysville's Browning. With Ting
ley making five of the extra points,
the game ended AZ to IA.
Perhaps part of the credit for
the win goes to the student body
who held an all-out pep meeting in
the auditorium Friday afternoon.
The meeting was in honor of
Queen Ruth Strine, with the theme
of "A Pretty Girl" Following two
cheers, Romaine Rector gave the
welcome, and the band, led by
Ricky Robson in the absence of
Ray Creighton, who has a broken
ankle, played three numbers. The
Queen and her court, Kay Borders,
Nancy Fades, Peggy Cummins and
Mary Lou Miller with escorts Da-
vid Hume, Bill Martin, Bill Wallis,
Jack Anders and Don Baker were
introduced.
Chorus singing and portrayals
of Moments to Remember" for
the Queen were climaxed by a
cheering session and the presenta-
ton of bouquet to the cheering
coach, Miss Virginia Fried.

Would Transfer Quotas
He also recommended that
untitled quotas in countries
where there are fewer applicants
than are allowed for in the act
should be allocated to appli-
cants in other countries whose
quotas have been used up. He
suggested that orphans might be
suitable candidates for these un-
used numbers.
The passport requirement.
which has operated against
many refugees from Iron Cur

this document, should be waived,
Mr.. Eisenhower said.
Mr.. Corsi, a New York Re-
publican, was fired after 80
days service as special immigra-
ton advisor to Secretary of

the Refugee Act had been

by a necessary "tooling-up

Cites Immigrants Achievements
THE immigrant has brought

"The foreign-born and their de-
scendants-which include all of
us-have given devoted allegi-
ance to the United States, in
war and in peace, and have
helped give to America a unique
position of leadership among the
nations"
He said the changes he pro-
posed would reafflrm Americas S
great tradition of sanctuary"
The President in three provi-
sions called on Congress to put
a broader construction on the
word refugee" He thinks eS-
capees and expellees should
qualify as refugees; that the re-
quirement that applicants
should be persons "living away
from their traditional home
land" be dropped, and that
people who through their in

and I recommend that this in
flexible requirement be elimi-
mated from the law, leaving it
to the sound discretion Of the
security officer to make his rec
ommendation on the basis Of all
the facts available. If he is in
doubt. he will not certify the
refugee or eseapee as a proper
security risk.
8. Another obstacle to the
achievement of the purposes Of
the act is the requirement of in
dividual sponsorship and guar
antees of each application for
admission. Where responsible,
volutary welfare organizations
are prepared to give assurances
with respect to applicants by
name, it is unnecessary to add
the hurdensorne requirement
that individual sponsorship of
each such applicant also be pro-
vided. I recommend that where
such agency assurances are
given, individual assurances as
surances not be required in ad-
dition.
To Prevent Splitting Families
8. At present. special visas
may not be issued to wives, hus-
bands or children of persons ad-
mitted under the act unless they
all come to the United States
together. If the members Of the
persons family are following at
a later time and are otherwise
admissible, then the special visas
should be equally available to
them.
10. There are many refugee
families in Western Europe whose
would make useful and
productive citizens of the United
States. But who would face
it they should avail
themselves of the provisions Of
the refugee act. This they are
unwilling to do. They would face
because of the fact
that one of their members is
ineligible for admission to the
United States under the health
standards of our general immi-
grafton laws, particularly as re-
spects tuberculosis.
We IN the United States no
longer regard tuberculosis with
dread. Our treatment standards
are high and modern treatment
is increasingly effective. The
United States, to its own benefit,
could permit many of these fami-
lies, within the existing numerical
limitations, to enter under safe
guards provided by the Attorney
General and the Surgeon General
Of the United States assuring pro-
lection of the public health and
treatment of the afflict-
ed individual, and also assuring
that such individual will not be-
come a public charge. / urge
that the Congress give considera-
tion to amendments that would
enable this to be done.

Presidents Proposals
To Change Refugee Act

many similar victims Of catastro-
phe. The restriction should be
relaxed.
S. The act contains a salutary
provision enacted by the Con-
gress for the benefit of aliens
who are here in the United States
and who fear persecution if re-
quired to return abroad. There
is a limitation, however. within
this section which has caused
undue hardship in some cases
1t requires that the person show
lawful entry as a bona f1de nom
immigrant" before he is eligible
for this humanitarian relief.
I recommend to the Congress
that the section be amended to
permit the Attorney General to
waive this requirement In meri-
torious cases where the person
is otherwise qualified under the
act. It is estimated that this
would not involve more than a
few hundred cases, but in the
case of each individual human
being. such an amendment would
satisfy the beneficent purposes of
the Congress.
To Relax Passport Rule
6. Obviously people who have
risked their lives to escape from
totalitarian nations often have
no passports. The Refugee Re-
lief Act. however. requires pass
ports and in many cases this
has served to defeat the very
purpose of the Congress. I rec
ommend amendment to permit
waiver of the need for passports
and similar documents in the
discretion of the Secretary of
State and the Attorney General
as is already provided in the
basic immigration and national
ity laws.
7. Under the act, no escapee
or refugee is entitled to a visa
unless there is available COM
plete information regarding his
history for two years past. ex-
cept on waiver by the Secretaries
of State and Defense, if it is de-
termined to be in the national
interest.
No such requirement is ap-
plicable in the case of regular
immigrants under the Immigra-
ton and Nationality Act of 1852.
This two-year history, in the
case of recent escapes, is often
to obtain. Yet these
are the very people who have
been actively stimulated to risk
the perils of escape by our own
information program broadcast
through the Iron Curtain.
I have faith in the compe-
tence of our security personnel,

Students Rebuked
On Shivers Stund

LOS ANGELES. May 81 R.-
President Fred D. Fagg of the
University Of Southern California
yesterday rebuked' the schools
student senate for opposing the
appearance of Texas Gov. Allan
Shivers at the university's COM
mencement June II.
President Fagg Immediately
re-extended the invitation to
Gov. Shivers and told the stu
dents their action Wednesday
night was Immature" and GILL;
Evening star., 1955-05-27

FOLLOWING is the tert of 10
amendments to the Refugee
Relief Act proposed By Presi-
dent Eisenhower today:
/. The act, at present, contains
specific categories of eligibility
with specific numbers allotted to
each category. 1t now appears
that because of some of the
technical requirements of the act
and the growing prosperity in
Western Europe, there may not
be enough applicants to f1ll the
quotas in some categories. rec
ommend that there be a provi-
sion for the use of unused num-
bers. Such unused numbers
might well be used, for example,
for orphans on a world wide
basis.
2. The act limits the term
refugee" to those who have not
been firmly resettled." Expert
ence has shown that this pro-
vision tends to exclude the hard
working and the adjustable, the
very people we want most as new
citizens. Morever, it appears that
"resettlement" is such a vague
term as to create conflicts in in
depreciation and delays in clear
ing applications.
I recommend that this limita-
tion be withdrawn so that, where
the refugee otherwise qualities
on a selective basis, he will not
be barred because he is diligent
and competent.
Would Accept Escapes
3. A similar difficulty is pre-
sented by the terms of the act
which require that an "escapee"
or "expellee" also be a refugee"
Under the act, this unduly limits
the escapes and expellees who
may be admitted. This, again
serves to exclude some Of the
most desirable people who have.
at great sacrifice, at least tenn
porarily resettled themselves. I
am sure it is enough that per-
son be qualified "escapee" or
"expellee" to meet the standards
on which we all agree. They
should also be required to be
refugees" within the narrow
definition of the act.
4. The requirement that a REF
ugee" be living away from his
traditional home has excluded
many tragic victims of disaster
whom I am sure the Congress
intended to admit. This includes
Netherlands farmers whose land
has been ruined by floods of salt
water. Greek mountain people
whose herds have been despoiled
by Communist invaders and
