The collection has become traditional in the church’s more than 5.000 congregations. In the local congregation. Zion Lu- | theran church.

The offering will be used solely for the spiritual c’are of the denomination’s youth in the armed services, who number more than 32.000. or one percent of the total military strength of the country. “Any cuts in the sise of our armed forces will not affect the program of the church for her servicemen,” declared Dr. Paul L. Dannenfeldt. pastor of Zion Lutheran church. Fort Wayne, and chairman of the synod’s armed services commission. “As long as our young men are called into the service, the church must minister to them.” The program includes the cooperation of more than 50€ T chaplains and contact pastors, inclusive of chaplains and pastors wrho serve Lutherans at veterans administration hospitals. The annual Mother’s day offering also sustains 49 service centers at home and overseas. These centers, which are supervised by pastors, offer opportunities for spiritual counseling and informal hospitality. The centers are open to all service people. The program also includes the monthly mailing of private worship pamphlets and devotional materials. A pictorial pocket magazine “Double Time” is sent out quarterly. ' “Mother’s Day Is appropriate for this offering,” commented the : Rev. Otto C. Busse, pastor of St. Paul’s Lutheran church, Preble, and a member of the armed services commission. “Our mothers certainly find comfort in their concern for their sons and daughters, knowing that the church is always with them.” Adams county Lutheran churches taking part in. the special offering next Sunday are, besides the local church: St. Paul's church, Preble, the 'Rev.

U N MOVES TO (Continued from Page One) the refugees. The measure, turned over to a special subcommittee for drafting, is expected to contain an appeal to the western powers at Vienna to strike out or amend the controversial article 16 of the proposed state treaty, providing for the refugees’ forceful repatriation. The U. S. favors deletion or revision of the article. The American position stems from the Korean armistice negotiations ,at which the U. S. opposed the forcible return of war prisoners from Red China and North Korea. The UN assembly unanimously endorsed this principle. Austria’s permanent observer at the UN, Heinrich Haymerle, said Article 16 failed to call for forceful repatriation of refugees. The article refers to so-called "voluntary repatriation” of "displaced persons,” but speakers at the UN Refugee Conference pointed out this was a "booby trap" which could be used hy tire-Soviets' in demanding return of escaped nationals.

May Delay Second Salk Vaccine Shots Two-Week Delay In State Is Possible INDIANAPOLIS (INS) — Health officials reported today that there may be a two-week delay in giving Hoosier children their second shots of Salk polio vaccine. A spokesman for Ell Lilly & Co., world’s major producer of the vaccine, said unless there is a rapid change, there “\Whl be no vaccinating in Indiana May 9 so far as Lilly is concerned.” Pitman-Moore, of Indianapolis, said it had a small supply on hand but it would be difficult to say offhand if there would be enough for the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis shots. City-county health officer. Dr. Henry O. Nester, said he had heard nothing of a possible shortage but indicated the Blind and Deaf school children would be given first chance since their school ends May 20. Health officials indicated the date for the second shot simply would be advanced a couple of weeks with no possibility of harm or loss of effectiveness of the shots to the children. They further stated that the NFIP determines the destination of all vaccine and that if the recently recalled Cutter vaccine had been destined for southern states, it is possible other vaccine is being diverted to send the serum to the most critical areas first. ♦ If yon nave sometning io sell or rooms tor rent, try a Demo*"at Want It results.
