Legion Post Here Only 25 Short Os Membership Goal Adams Post 43, of the American Legion, obtained 606 members, just 25 short of the goal of 631, for the box-car roundup which ended November 1, Ambrose Spangler, membership chairman, said today. The local Legion post obtained 96.03 percent of its goal, much higher than the 79 percent district average, which was the best in Indiana. Because of its ranking, the fourth district will march first in all official Legion parades and affairs. Spangler pointed out that the membership drive is not over, by any means, and will continue right up to convention time next June. Any former member who has failed to renew his membership is encouraged to do so, and all veterans of service during time of hostilities are invited to join. Some of the Legion’s past activities include the furnishing of a room at the hospital in memory of the veterans, aid to the Decatur youth center, which for years was located on Legion property, donations annually to worthy causes from the treasury, and many legal services to veterans through their service officer, James K. Staley. Admitted Mrs. Edward Davidson, Decatur; Miss Bonnie Lou Bedwell, Decatur. Dismissed Mrs. Laura Wulliman, Berne, transferred to Lutheran hospital in Fort Wayne. Furniture Scratches Scratches on dark furniture can often be made invisible by applying a small amount of tincture of iodine, and then polishing.

Parliament Opened By Queen Elizabeth Pledges British To Disarmament Work LONDON (UP)— Queen Elizabeth II pledged the British government today to work for world disarmament so that the advance of science shall not be “retarded by the fears of mankind.” Her speech, opening the 1957-58 session of Parliament, came as Sputnik II hurled through space overhead and the Russians were threatening to boycott all disarmament talks with the West. Resplendent in evening gownand wearing the glittering imperial crown, Elizabeth gave the assembled Lords and Members of Parliament a broad review of the Conservative government's leigislative program and foreign policy. "They will pursue their endeavors to achieve an agreement on disarmament, mindful that; at this momentous time, the advance of science into the unknown should be inspired by the hopes, and not retarded by the fears, of mankind," she said. The Queen's speech, written for her by Prime Minister Harold Macmillan’s Conservative government, made no direct reference to the Soviet Union’s sensational scientific accomplishments. But it was clear what she was referring to. She recalled her recent visit to the United Slates and Canada and the- talks held in Washington between Macmillan and President Eisenhower. These, she said, were linked with Britain’s “constant endeavor” to foster freedom in the world. "My government will seek to strengthen the United Nations in the task of maintaining justice and peace throughout the world,'* she said. Fall Festival: Zion Parish Hall Wednesday, November 6.
