found takers for 50 million In
aid she has offered for the last
two years through the United

identified as Burma, India and
indonesia. Two others were un-
derstood to be in the Middle
East and the third in Latin
America. =
10 Projects Involved

involved. They include machine
tools and technicians for an elec-
tronic calculating machine fac
tory in India, equipment for
water development in the same
country and a low-cost housing
exhibit in Latin America.

sistance program four million
.rubles for 1858 and. another four
million for 1954-tile equivalent.
at the official rate, of So million
all told.
She first attached strings to
the money. Then they were un-
tied, and she waited for some
body to show interest. Now the
leftover 1953-54 rubles are going
fast and the Soviet government
has pledged another four million
for this year.

The aid program is run joint
ly by the U. N. and seven spe-

sought for by Mr.. and Mrs. East
Cleveland, are to be offered at
Shaw High Schools heated pool
on Wednesday evenings, beginning
Wednesday, November End.
This welcome announcement by
Assistant to the Superintendent
Nelson F. Leist, comes as a con-
tinuation of the local School
Boards constant effort to make
the school buildings more available

present plans do not include the
offering of swimming lessons" Mr..
Leist added, "but if there is enough
demand for them they may be
scheduled for another evening of
the week, probably on Fridays"
The Shaw Pool and locker
rooms were completely redecorated
this summer in white and green.
The pool is just above the ground
floor level, and the locker rooms
are one floor above it.
Getting to this part Of the old
Shaw building may be difficult for
those who never attended basket
ball games in the old gymnasium
there. For these people the follow
ing instructions may help them
find the entrance:
Go east on Euclid ave. past the
front of Shaw, to the concrete
steps and sidewalk just inside the
eastern boundary of the Shaw
property. Turn up the walk to the
second door - the first door will
be locked and climb the flight
of iron steps to the locker room
level.
No advance swim registration
will be necessary. Just bring your
suit, your towel, and your quarter.

supporting groups as backtops.
and they help to raise funds to
make up deficiencies in Chest
support.
Usually these groups are

through membership fees or
otherwise in addition to their

Some Raise Other Funds
While the Community Chest
attempts to provide operating
funds and member agencies re-

some exceptions.
One such is the Boy Scouts,
which raised $l00.172 independ-
emily last year for its summer
camp program. 1t plans to
raise $122,000 this year.
The Salvation Army gets a
substantial sum from the Com
munity Chest because of the
load of emergency relief calls
it meets. In addition it takes
up collections for it's traditional
Christmas and winter programs
and it's summer camp program.
Last year the three units in
this area raised 100000 and
this year they expect to raise
100000.

capital funds is that of the

pear the goal had been set with
undue optimism.
What the deficiency meant to
the agencies concerned can be
seen from the f1guers for the so
agencies in the Washington
Chest. The sum of $2.487,045
was made available to them.
The actual expenditures of the
agencies in that year were about
SIS million.
Similar figures were not
available for the five Community
Chests in this area outside the
District. But the agencies in
those chests requested 1922, 100
to defray operations this year.
Total allotments. however, were
$500, 1887. or $421, LAG short of the
requests.
Some of the agencies, notably
the YMCA and the YWCA in
Washington, have income from
operationS-the serving of meals
and the renting of rooms. The
Community Chest does not sub
sidize these operations. Some
agencies have income from en-
dowments. But with operating
funds short, additional funds
have to be raised in a variety of
ways. Washington Chest agen-
cieS obtained about S550,000
through contributions outside
the Chest in 1854.
Last Goal Met I'm "a
The last time the Community
Chest drive realized its goal was
in the war year of 1914. The
amount sought was $4,850 900;
the amount raised was S9,537

a combined Community Chest
National War Fund appeal. For
eign relief and war-connected
agencies were included and they
received ST million.

goods.
Senator Gore wanted to know
what other segment of American
society must bear the burden of
maintaining this overseas market
for the textiles industry if it is
unwilling to accept any part of
the foreign trade exchange.
Seeks Balance
Senator Gore said that inter-
national trade. like water. seeks
a balance. and added:
1.-THE question for Congress to
decide is whether that balance
will be achieved through two
way trade. curtailment of United
States exports or continued for
eign subsidy by United States
taxpayers. AS for me. I choose
trade"
The pending bill. which Sen
ator Gore supports. would ex-
tend the Trade Agreement Act
for three years and empower the
President to cut tariffs by an
other Is per cent at the rate of
5 per cent each year.
The amendment the commit
tee adopted last week, mainly to
opposition from textile areas,
would require the President to
apply the additional tariff cuts
to rates in effect last January
instead of next July /.
Would Affect Japan
The principal trade agreement
being negotiated at this time is
with Japan and could involve
textiles. The amendment is in
tended to protect the textile in
dustry from a second tariff cut
within a few months if textiles
should be reduced in the Jap
anese agreement.

took UP the oil amendment
Chairman Byrd, Democrat, of
Virginia said he hoped this
amendment could be disposed of
promptly and that the commit
tee then could finish up it's work

It was learned that the United
States has no precise target date
for the Big -Four meeting and it
has expressed no particular
preference regarding the site. It
is generally thought. however,
that a European site will be
chosen.
The whole question of Euro
pean security will, be studied at
the Big Four meeting, with en-
phasis upon settlement of Ger
man problems.
Pacts in Effect in May
The West has insisted for
months that a Big Four con-
ference could not be held until
the Paris pacts were ratified.
These agreements. which include
authority for re-arnNng West
Germany, will come into effect
early in May.
The Western Foreign Minis
ters' meeting in Paris will come
just a day ahead of the NATO
council session.
Meanwhile, working groups of
the Big Three Governments are

In 1949 Mr.. Vawters told a

80 per cent Of the contribution
obtained by telephone and the
pickup men get Is per cent.
Recently he said the percent
ages do not work out to as much
as those figures. The telephone
solicitors are shut-ins. he said,
and telephone soliciting is an
occupation they can undertake
to earn money. He said some
other organizations pay tele-
phone solicitors as high as 10
per cent.
Mrs. Vawters said it would be
possible to obtain a statement
of receipts for 1854. She referred
the reporter to the organiza-
tons accountant. The account
ant referred the reporter to the
associations attorney. The at
torney said he expected to re-
ceive the figures from Mrs
Vawters and would supply them.
Mrs. Vawters telephoned later
the figures were being mailed,
They we're not received.
During the visit to the society
Mrs. Vawters cited figures Mr.
Vawters was compiling at an
other desk. She said they showed
expenditures for certain pur-
poses amounting to $4,000 in
1854. Receipts were more than
that, she said. because more was
spent.
To End Telephone Method
The Volunteers of America,

Arthur j. Wild since last Octo-
Der 20. He was sent here from
post at Patterson, N. j., being
assigned to Washington. he ex-
planned, to get the organization
here cleaned up and back on its
feet. In recent years it has had
a succession Of directors.
Letters and free-will Offering,
he said, brought in $29,791 last
year. He produced the figure
promptly after consulting a
ledger. He said the organization
had to make some solicitations
by telephone because the need
for funds was acute toward the
end of the year. but he hopes
to end that method of money
raising.
He explained it was resorted
to because a former official had
left. taking the list of regular
contributors and a new list of
contributors had not been built
up.
Col. Wild said that the Vol
unteers organization he headed
in Patterson was managed so
that between IS and 81 per cent
of contributions went directly
to charitable purposes.
