sistance funds and by revamping
American immigration legislation.
"In addition to these Govern
mental actions" Mr.. Haskell said,
'relief funds and jobs must be
provided by individuals and busi-
ness. Church groups and individ-
uals have been doing a tremend-
GUS job in sponsoring the refugees
in communities throughout the
country.
Businesses must make jobs
available to these refugees, many
of whom are highly skilled. These
people are able and anxious to
work and pay their own bills, but
we must give them the opportun-
ity."
The majority of these men have
much to offer, not only in cour-
age and capacity for hard work,
but also in skills, experience and
training. They are equipped and
ready to make substantial con-
tributions to- those organizations
offering them useful employment.
Mr.. Haskell said that his un-
derstanding of the magnitude of
the Hungarian fight for freedom
had been increased by the eye
witness reports of young Hun
garian couple who have been
staying at his home in Winning
ton for the last three weeks.
'qThe stories of the fighting,
the almost unbelievable acts of
courage and sacrifice, told us by
this couple, brought home to me
the price brave men and women
are willing to pay for their free
dom," he said.
Surely jobs can be found in
our businesses for these people.
am just as certain in my heart
that all Americans will respond
to this need-to this challenge
which has been created by the
incredible valor and determina-
ton of, the Hungarian people"
Smyrna times., 1957-01-17

which was epitomized by the bit
ter fight for survival at Valley
Forge.
THE valor of the Hungarian
people who defied the Commun-
lists has a special meaning for all
of us who have studied our own
history. Let all Americans speak
with a resounding voice that we
are going to help these people to
the fullest extent" he said.
The government can do much
to help, Mr.. Haskell said, but
American individuals and busi-
ness must assist them in finding
worthwhile employment, where
their skills and training together
with their acknowledged courage
and capacity for work will be
most useful.
Referring to the visit by Vice
President Nixon to the Austrian
refugee camps and the emergency
airlift, Mr.. Haskell said, 'The
government has been bringing
these refugees to America and
caring for them until homes and
jobs can be found"
However, he added, there are
still important steps the Govern
ment can and must take to solve
the refugee problem. He listed
them as follows:
1. The Congress should author
ize a substantial increase in the
number of Hungarian refugees
who can enter America. No cell
ing should be put on the number,
but President Eisenhower should
have latitude to meet the situa-
tion as it develops.
2. Congress should increase
economic aid to Austria to help
that burdened nation handle the
temporary refugee problem.
3. We should continue to de-
mand Russian troop Withdrawals
from Hungary and a complete in
vestigation of the mass deporta-
tions and other injustices carried
out by the Russians.
4. We must give the President
greater fexibility to deal with
future sudden crises such as this

of the Smyrna Town Council, who
represented Smyrna at the NUM-
cipal Convention in Wilmington
last week, have returned pleased
with the convention and of the
hospitality accorded by the off,
cials of Wilmington. Councilman
Grieves believes that the Munich
pal Convention, which will now
be made an annual affair, will
inure to the good of all the towns
of the State in that it not only
gives an opportunity of an ex-
change Of ideas and methods, but
will eventually lead to the ac-
quiring of uniform laws for all
towns.
