Red Cross Opposes Federated Drives Stern New Measures Planned On Chapters WASHINGTON. UP The American Red Cross today undertook stern new measures to keep its local chapters out of federated fund-raising drives. During the next few months, national representatives will confer individually with the 160 chapters which joined local drives last year, and with 'other chapters considering future joint fund-raising. The representatives will put on pressure to bring the chapters in line with the national Red Cross policjjr against joining such “one canvass for all" appeals. j Participation in local drives is authorized by the national rule, reaffirmed by the board of governprs last Sunday, but' under conditions which most chapters violated. ; The new move was endorsed by delegates at the 28th national Red Cross convention who attended a special. fund-raising seminar Monday. President E. Roland Harriman had told the convention earlier that participation in united campaigns is an increasingly “serious problem.” Representatives of many of the 16C Chapters related bitter experiences from participation in joint charity drives. Only a few reached their fund goals under the federated campaigns. j The representatives complained that joining local campaigns brought control by outside agen-. < ies of the Red Cross budget. They also reported difficulty in raising funds, for special Red Cross appeals, - Penguins, which behave so much like people, are biologically a very primitive form of bird, not far removed from* their reptile ancestors.

Floyd Acker. They are apparently doing- a good job because Acker says, he is constantly being told by people who are familiar with roads in other; town 4 this size thjjt Decatur’s roads are on the top of the list. It is the job of the department to see that everything is in,order on all of the thoroughfares, parks, and playgrounds in the city--and the is getting bigger every day. For instance, an approximately two and a half acre plot in the Stratton addition is scheduled this week th be worked on as a playground for the children of that neighborhood. The land was deeded over; to the city for that purpose last year and Acker and his men have target the ground ship-shape, all mowed and marked off for receiving playground equipment, dup to arrive any day now. The s;treet\and sewer department men have the job of keeping Han-nu-Nutttnan park and Homestead all trimpred up and looking good. Acker estimates about one-half the city's streets are improved, that is they have other than a brick surface, either asphalted or blackr topped. Acker says this makes Deca tut - “tops" for roads, most of itL fieTays.; having been accomplished very recently, ■ — RHEE CONTINUES l Continued From Pn<e Onrl ese and North Koreans. They believed, however. that Rhee had “reserved the right” to take; independent action against Communists. Rhee branded India as a “Communist" state which woujd favor Red “explainers” in re-indoctrinat-ing ant|-Communist prisoners. For this Reason, Rhee said a clash between South Korean and Indian troops would ! “inevitable." "Who is going to stop it?” he asked. "That dash is inevitable. You should thank me for telling you.” In. giving Clark his three points for peace, Rhee said “we wish to continue the war” unless the U.N. accepts his plan. The plan called for: 1. Withdrawal of the Chinese forces dr. if that cannot be attained, simultaneous withdrawal of the Chienjse and U. N. forces
