I have the facts of the resolution passed at the Illinois convention, American Legion, in my possession. also the rebuttal printed editorially by the Chicago SunTimes for the Scouts, and will gladly share them with anyone who wishes this information. American Legion Adams Post No. 43 has generously supported the Girl Scouts. We should like to thank them publicly at this time for that support, trust this letter will cause them no embarrassment as it shouldn't, and hope we shall have their continued help and that of the community.

long-range program to make highways adequate to carry immediate and future traffic needs. He said the group apparently believed that the federal government should be primarily responsible for financing an inter-state high way system. The group also discussed the possible creation by the federal government of a loan agency which could either make turnpike loans to the states on reasonable interest rates or terms, or guarantee such loans. The governor said that he, Gov. Lawrence Wetherby of Kentucky, and the President discussed a prol>osed Cincinnati-to-Louisville turnpike in connection with the subsidyproposal. - Wetherby pointed out, Lausche reported, that~ an engineering survey showed traffic on a Cincinnati to Louisville turnpike would provide enough revenue only to rtitire a 75 million Investment However, the Kentuckian contended, the roadway would cost SIOO million.

Louis J. Horvath, president of the United Auto Workers local; said that the mass meeting Thursday afternoon at School Field is being held in response to petitions signed by rank-and-file union members. Voting on the cut, which company officials have indicated is the only alternate to a shut-downi is to be done by machine, and the ballots will be tallied by a firm of certified public accountants. When the union voted Aug. 5, about half of the 10,060 workers were on hand. The proposal was rejected at that time.
