Maj. Arthur W. Wermuth,’ Wichita, Kan., "the one-man army of Bataan,” will be installed tonight as national president. "Ever since the end of the war, veterans who have asked for a little help In buying a home or starting their own business or going to school have been painted by some Interests as the give-me boys, " Wermuth said. i “Now we’re going to show them » what we can do for ourselves " ; The World War II Veterans Busii nessmen's Association was organised in Detroit in June as a local I association. The idea was for ex- • servicemen with business exper- - lence to pool their resources and I lend a helping band to other veterans who wanted to go into busta

ness for themselves. The idea mushroomed almost Overnight into Wisconsin. Indiana, Ohio, Illinois, Missouri, lowa and Kansas. Some 200 operators of small business here, from automobile agencies to photograph studios and butcher shops, contributed .enough money to start a revolving fundThe federal government granted permission to the non-profit group to loan money at low interest rates to veterans who needed it in op*r ating newly-established businesses. The American Legion. Veterans of Foreign Warn and the American Veterans of World War 1 endorsed the plan, although the business veterans steered clear of ties with other servicemen's organizations. Wermuth, already view-president of the American Veterans, was asked to accept the national presidency of the Veteran Businessmen al most before be had heard of the organization. By the time he accepted, a chap- , ter ot 42 members was operating in his home town of Wichita, where he serves as marshall. “Our plan is that every veteran help every other veteran," the “oneman army,” said. “It makes no difference whether it’s with advice, by channeling business to him, or whether It’s with hard cash.” In Detroit. 186 veterans are sponsored by established businessmen in getting their new shops on a working basis. The “sponsors” serve as counselors, offer legal advice, and make loans where needed. The program is independent of ' aid offered through the veterans :administration, and receives no subI sidy from state or other local gov- ‘ ernment units. Rent Director In Decatur Thursday 1 John F. Williams, area rent diI rector of the Fort Wayne-Decatur area will be in Decatur Thursday ' morning at 9 o'clock until 3 o'clock I in the afternoon for the purpose of interviewing landlords and tenants on rent problems In the Decatur rent area.

ACHESON URGES (Cont. From Pans One) ' dalegation has approached the 20i nation I-atin American bloc for - support when three new members of the 11-member council are elect- \ ed during this session of the general assembly. Yugoslavia's bold bld to administer a sound diplomatic beating to Russia was reported to have enthusiastic support from some laitin American countries but only i lukewarm support from the United ’ States and Britain. FIRST READING (Cont. From Pag* On*) | i i ii I■■ i■in ■ > — -t ’ . Inc., was passed by the council. The truck is for the electric department equipped with ladder mount; there is s trade-allowance of 3750 on the old truck. An objection was raised before th* council by Herman Dierkes to an ordinance prohibiting parking on the west side of Thirteenth street between Monroe and Nuttman streets. Dierkes claimed that the prohibition should be specific, that individual establishments along

Thirteenth be designated as "no parking" areas, but the. entire distance should not have to come un- ' der the force of the ordinance He suggested further that plans should ‘ he made to widen the street, thus taking care of the current traffic problems. Police chief James Borders, how- , ever, told the council that congestion along Thirteenth is not a static t thing, that it is the same as a year ’ ago, but that "it is constantly inI creasing." The only alternatives, he said, are "to engineer to widen the road or eliminate vehicles parked there." He pointed out that the problem was of immediate Importance. and not something to wait until engineering had l>een completed. He recommended to the council th*
