Amid charges Of "infiltra-
ton" the Kalorama Citizens
Association last night received
% applications for new mem
bership.
Association President F. FL
wood Davis said that while he
had heard talk Of an IF you
can't beat them, Join them"
movement he felt that persons
joining the association should
not represent the interests Of
splinter factions"
The association, which last
November had pulled out of the
Adams-Morgan planning COM
mittee for urban renewal in the
area. heard Mr.. Davis advise
prospective members that In
joining the Kalorama group
citizens assumed an obligation
to the area the association rep
resents."
Two members Of the Kalo-
rama association, asked to
comment on Mr.. Davis re-
marks, replied fatty that I'VE
are being infiltrated," and
that you have the. feeling that
a group is trying to come in
and take us over"
However, Donald D. Garten-
haus, chairman Of the Adams
Morgan planning committee
and also a member of the
Kalorama group said, No at
tempt is being made to invade
the association. What we want
Is that they be better informed.
AS it is now" he added, "there
is a membership that informs
them only Of one side"
Tainting Charged
Mr.. Gartenhaus attacked a
report in the associations
newsletter that $464,70O had
been appropriated for another
2-year-survey on top of the
one Just concluded In the
Adams Morgan area" He
called the wording tainted"
The notice had urged mem
bers who don't believe in hav-
ing your tax money spent 50
extravagently" to protest
through the Kalorama group.
The newsletter was also
criticized in a letter read ut
last nights meeting from John
R. Searles jr., executive direc-
tor Of the Districts Redevelop-
ment Land Agency.
Writing to Grover M. Koock-
ogey, vice-president Of the Kal-
Drama association, Mr.. Searles
said that he was concerned"
that the proposed planning
program for the Adams-Mor-
gan area "has not received
completely fair treatment" In
the notice.
Sees No Duplication
He advised that the proposed
Is to 18-month survey and
planning period will in no way
duplicate" the work of the pre-
viouS Demonstration Project,
The surveys conducted during
the demonstration project do
not provide the kind of detailed
inforamtion needed for an ade-
quate plan for Adams Morgan,
Mr.. .Searles wrote. "Our plan
ming program Is designed to
build on this information to de-
velop a plan for the rehabili-
tation Of the Adams-Morgan
neighborhood."
The association passed a
resolution accepting an offer
by Mr.. Searles for a member
OF his staff to speak to the
group.
In other business, the asso-
citation. meeting Of the Wom-
ems City Club, 1900 Twentieth
street, passed a resolution call
ing on the president of the
Board Of Commissioners to "in-
vestigate and report" reasons
for "streetcar stoppage and
piling Of snow on plat
forms" during the last snow
storm.
Speaker for the evening was
Representative Kearns, Penn

overall plan and concept for

school children echoes from q
letter to the editor Of The Star
from Carol Hurd Of 5000 Twen-
ty-first street NE, which read
in part:
II have read the life Of Jane
Addams and her work in the
Hull House and I think it is
awful 1t has to be torn down
Why couldn't they keep it as a
memorial to her?
Il am wondering if there
isn't anyone else interested in
1t like me. I am only IL years
old. I don't know exactly how
to bring this about. Would you
think it would be worth while
for you to publish an article in
the paper about it?"
Carol, this is your answer.

one-third of the North Ameri-

Peace Corps officials are un-

Peace Corps. Where individual

enough to switch to another
site where need is just as great.
A visit to one Of those sites

said they were not quite sure

thought they could do to help
They wondered whether the

Four years ago Colombian
social workers came into Can

villages. In the interim they
have taught the campesinos
how to farm their small home

Using policy and methods of many

mission of the church is subordin-

and insufficient accent is placed on
spiritual values which alone can,
make any church "big" in the eyes
of Him who founded it.
1t is easy to see that this tend
ency toward bigness is becoming
an obsession also with some lead
ers of church bodies. They aim to
induce great denominations TO sur
render their old time historical i'd

other than the prestige and power
that comes from size. They seem 10

Please do not misunderstood. We
would not infer that size is never

the exalting of bigness for its own
sake. Size must remain subordin-

must be more desired than guam

bigness and goodness-well, God
bless you.
