eyes to be used in restoring sight
In order to carry out this Lions
will have the opportunity of donat-
ing their eyes at the time of death
in order to help those afflicted
with loss of vision regain their
sight This will be done through
cooperating with the Eye-Bank for
Sight Restoration, Inc, of New
York.
Through the help of the hospitals
in Delaware, The Eastern Air Lines
and the American Red Cross Motor
Corps, it is possible to distribute
the vital corneaI material to sur
geons within the 48-hour. time
limit which is the safe period be-
tween the time of removal of the
eye and its actual use in the cor
neal grating operation.
The removal, transportation and
delivery of the corneal tissue to
the waiting surgeon is accom-
plished in a most efficient man
ner by the staff of the Eye-Bank.
Included in the 48-hour time
limit is the immediate delivery to
the Eye-Bank of every eye that is
donated in order that it may be
inspected in the Eye-Bank Labor
atory before it is delivered to the
surgeon. This insures that the ma
terial is free from defects of COM
municable diseases and, largely as
consequence of this precaution,
corneal transplanting operations
are successful in more than 80 per
cent of the favorable cases.
Furthermore, after surgeons have
used the corneal tissue, the re-
naming material is returned to
the Eye-Bank for further study
and use in the research Labor
atory.
Today, there are over 10000
known cases who could have their
sight restored through corneal
transplants. COrneas from an aged
person or from an infant are equal
ly usable as age does not matter
as long as the corneal tissue is
healthy.
Each of your eyes has many
parts, Mr.. Bliss said. He further
remarked, Zone of these is the
tfduS parent front, the cOTu0d,
which collects and refracts the
rays of light. Most blind persons
have eye defects that are confined
to the cornea, and therefore a
corneal transplant would be of no
help to them.
But there are many thousands
of the blind whose ailment is in
the cOrnea alone; and of these a
large number can get their sight
back by a transplant and through
the project being supported by the
Lions Club members of District
22-D Delaware"
Every Lions Club in the state
solicit support of this projects He
will keep a record Of the names of
persons who have pledged their
eyes to the eye bank. He will also
accept cash donations towards
furthering the Eye-Bank. He also
will interest the public in follow
ing the example of the Lions Club
members by signing an eye donor
pledge.

QUESTION AND ANSWERS

QUESIION AMI NoWEnS
o. need some quick money for an
emergency and have been won
dering if l should cash in my
permanent plan CT life insur-
ance. Before / do this, I'd like
some advice from VA. Will you
please tell me what would be
involved?
A-The VA advises you NOT to
cash in your permanent plan
CT life insurance. All protect
ion ceases when the policy is
surrendered for cash, because,
once cancelled, it cannot be re-
stored. You would be much
better off to borrow on your
insurance. Paid up policyhold-
ers may borrow as much as
"a percent of the policy's cash
surrender value.
Q-I know there's deadline COM
ing up pretty soon for us
World War Two veterans on
CT home loans. What is the
date exactly, and what does it
mean?
A-Under present law, July rs,
1860, is the cutoff date for
World War Two veterans to
apply for a CT loan. You will
be allowed an additional year
in which to have the loan pro-
cessed and actually closed.
Q-I now receive VA disability
pension, under the present
law. If decide to switch to
the new system of payment,
effective July I, 1860, will my
change be considered final?
A-Yes. If you do decide to move
over to the new system, you
cannot go back to the old. If
you have any doubt about which
method of payment is more
advantageous to you, the new
or the old, ask your nearest VA
office to help you decide.
Q-I am the beneficiary of my vet
eran-husband's CT insurance
policy. He owed a few bills to
private individuals at his death,
which | intend to pay. Mean
while. do these creditors have
any right to seize the CT in
surance policy to get their
money right away?
A-No. The proceeds of your hus-
bands CT insurance are ex-
empt by law from any claims
OF private creditors. The insur-
ance money may not be seized
or attached to pay his debts.

DR.. JACKS0N'S BLIND SPOT

Dr. Joseph H. Jackson, president OF the o-rnll-
lion member National Baptist Convention, U.S.A..
was recently quoted as questioning the value o1
the southern sit-ins and kneel-in movements
r OF course, DR.. Jackson was speaking in Miss
issippi and with tongueincheek. But to thous-
ands Of Americans of goodwill men and agen-
ciess of many creeds, Dr.. Jackson was putting his
foot in his mouth" Negroes talk too much OF in
ttecration," Dr. Jackson sad and not enough OF
racial elevation.
The unfortunate citizens Of FaKette County,
Tenn. for one example, could tell the clergyman
from CHICAGO, what happens when community
of Neuro businessmen seek to legally register
their townspeople Their efforts to elevate them
selves economically and socially resulted in an
unmerciful boycott that threatened starvation to
the entire Negro population. There car be very
little elevation for Negroes trapped in the TIGHT
moose of segregation, most particularly in the
south
DR.. Jackson, whose almost perennial leader
ship of the NBA, USA. was subjected to bitter
contest a few weeks ago. was asked to comment
on the arrest of young Dr. Martin L. King, another
Baptist and southern irtegration leader. He
said he was not familiar with the incident.
Most unfortunate it seemed for the elder
clerdyman to take such stand on 50 important
an issue. Churches of various denominations,
particularly those of predominantly white mem
bership, have lauded the sit-in demonstrators,
and in some cases sent funds to pay court costs
of those arrested The Democratic Party. in its
platform gave unqualified support" Of sitins
and other civil rights demonstrations.
Perhaps, DR.. Jackson has been too busy with
his flock to read the papers and ponder the
grave issues of contemporary America.

Post Office department has been
sending some first class mail by
air on an experimental basis.... A
recent request by the Department
to greatly expand the experiment
met with a storm Of criticism from
the House of Representatives and
resulted in passage by the House
of a bill (the Cunningham bill
which would prohibit the carry
ing of any mail by air Except to
Hawaii and Alaska which does
not bear the air mail stamp. LAS
Representative Cunningham states,
lit will terminate a special service
that is unfair to regular users of
air mail and economically un-
sound for the post office.
From the standpoint of practl-
cal economy and good common
sense, we agree with the proposed
bill, to require that only airmail
paid for as such and bearing the
premium air-mail postage rate, be
accepted for transportation by air. .
