BY the Associated Press

Secretary of Commerce Lu-

day the Packaging Institute
is seeking his help in "the
development of an ethical
approach to the problems re-
vealed" about the industry in
recent Senate hearings.
In a letter to President
Kennedy, made public by the
Commerce Department, Sec
retary Hodges said officers
and directors of the institute
have asked for a meeting
with the Secretary to discuss
ways in which the packaging
industry can voluntarily
clean up some of the abuses
detailed at hearings by a
Senate subcommittee headed
by Senator Philip A. Hart,
Democrat of Michigan.
Their interest, of course,
includes the desire to seek a
solution on a voluntary eth
ical plane to the problems"
Secretary Hodges said.

Patriots Lobby Opposed

A proposal that the Daugh-
ters of the American Revo-
luton build g patriots lobby
in honor of George Wash
ington at the Freedoms Foun-
dation at Valley Forge at a
cost Of 100000 ran into stiff
opposition from delegates to
the list Continental Con-
greSs today.
The vote on the project
will be taken by ballot vote
on Thursday.
But if sentiments of most
of the speakers who took the
floor today prevail, speakers
who won the heartest ap-
plause from the delegates. the
proposal will be turned down.
Mrs. AShmead White, presi-
dent general of the OAR, told
the Daughters that its gov
erning board had approved
the proposal by a majority
vote, and noted that all of
the money would be from
voluntary contributions and
none would come from dues.
A notice on the proposal
made today was sent to all
chapters so days before the
Congress.
The chairman of the two
most powerful national OAR
committees both took the
floor to oppose the proposal.

Mrs. Wilson K. Barnes,
chairman of the National De-
fense Committee, also op-
posed the proposal.
Freedoms Foundation has
done many good things, and
]. Edgar Hoover is on the
board, she said.
But the record of awards
by the Foundation in the
last few years have included

Mrs. Barnes cited a speech
by DR.. Kenneth D. Wells,

dation, in which he said
rightiStS were on the wane.

acterized as being on the
right, yet 1000 people came
to our National Defense
luncheon" Mrs. Barnes said.
DR.. Wells is scheduled to
address the Daughters to-
morrow afternoon.
In general, many speakers
who opposed the proposal
stressed keeping OAR money

Other members pointed out
the need for air conditioning
in Constitution Hall, where
rentals are sure to shrink
once a large air-conditioned
concert hall is built here.
An Arkansas Daughter said
the best memorial anyone
can give to George Wash
ington is an action program
of education of youth in con-
Stitutional government.
Mrs. William H. Sullivan,
jr., first vice president gen.
eral, who also opposed the
patriot lobby, said the daugh-
tiers needed things at home,
including better pay for their
good employees" and an in
veStment for better public
relations.
But Mrs. B. Howell Bond,
State regent of Hawaii,
speaking for the proposal.
said the Freedoms Founda-
ton had reached thousands
OF people in Hawaii that the
OAR has never been able to
reach. She said there are 139
women in the OAR there,
while the population is more
than 100000. Mrs. Bond
added that the citizens come
from "all kinds of racial
backgrounds and they're very
good Americans"
But Communists are active
there, she said.
