fussy or unduly precise-and
that's certainly not the idea

from the Greek "eiron," mean

Bolton Lauds
Unity Of
85th Congress

Non-partisan concern for the
nations welfare made possible
the many constructive achieve
ments of the Eighty-Fifty Con.
gress. Congressman Frances P
Bolton told the East Cleveland
Hi-Twelve at a luncheop meet
ing at the Lake Shore Country
Club today.
Spiritual power engendered
by daily prayers enabled the
Congress to put aside much
petty political strife, the Con-
gresham declared.
Citing Communist attacks
upon mutual security and ma
tionai defense budgets, Con-
gressman Bolton said the Con-
gress ignored sniping from the
left and from the right to do
what members believed would
best protect freedom in America
and in the world.
With diabolical cunning, Con-
gresham Bolton declared, the
Communist enemy seeks to pit
brother against brother, and ma
ton against nation.
The non-partisan character
of the 85th Congress, she as
serted, was evidence at national
unity and soundness of purpose
in the face of grave danger
from the anti-religious forces
seeking to conquer the world.

Last Minute Briefing For
United Appeal Workers Monday

pile who are planning to attend
Number one is that Mrs. Ruth
Kerr, cafeteria director, will be
personally in charge to insure
one of her famous banquet-type
dinners. The other appealing
fact is that the meeting will
feature no prolonged speeches
or time consuming non-essen-
tials. The meeting will move
quickly and will terminate at
an early hour.
However, the important, es-
sential details necessary to the
success and efficiency of the
drive will be carefully pre-
sented. 1t is most urgent that
every person in any way con-
nected with United Appeal in
East Cleveland be present at
this time to receive his cards
and last minute instructions.
The task will be substantially
lighter if you are present at
Shaw High on next Monday
evening.
Reservations were asked by
Wednesday, October 9th. If any,
one hasn't made plans to attend
he is urged to call Err. Lofts
in the event that any reserva-
tions are available.
