1 DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT Published Every Evening Except Sunday By THE DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT CO., INC. Entered at the Decatur, Ind., Post Office as Second Class Matter Dick D. Heller, Jr. ——— President John G. Heller Vice-President Chas. Holthouse Secretary-Treasurer A Chance To Help One of the most pleasant sights in Decatur, or any other American community, is to be near one of the schools when the day is over. Hundreds of happy children pour out of the comfortable buildings on their way to warm homes, good food and play or study. Yet there are many places in this world where little children don’t have any of these things. There are places where innocent kids have nothing to look forward to but another day of cold, hunger, and disease. Blindness threatens countless youngsters every year in an age where the eye disease they suffer from, trachoma, can easily be cured with aureomycin. Millions of others can become cripples for life for lack of the single shot of penicillin needed to cure their tropical illness, yaws. Leprosy, once a dreaded and hopeless scourge, is successfully treated with sulfone, provided this wonder drug is available. Tuberculosis and malaria can be prevented, cured or treated with the proper care and the proper drugs. An elementary knowledge of diet and nutrition is enough to defeat malnutrition in whole cities. For 750 million children—three out of four in the whole world—the best chance to obtain the aid they .need is through UNICEF, the United Nations Children’s Fund. The Associated Churches of Decatur are offering the citizens of this community the opportunity to help the suffering children of the world by sponsoring a “trick or treat for UNICEF” Halloween collection. The children of this city, through their various Sunday schools, will collect for the children of the world Thursday evening, October 29. One of the fine features of the UNICEF program t is the fact that it is not a “giveaway.” The countries , receiving this aid spend an average of $2.50 for every dollar they receive from outside. And two-thirds of the countries receiving aid contribute to UNICEF’s central fund. In this way, they show that they are interested in helping their own children, not just taking a handout. When the UNICEF spooks call on you, remember these figures. This is what your gift to UNICEF means: $10 —ten children suffering from leprosy treated for three years. sß—the DDT to protect 24 children from malaria for a year. $6 —the aureamycin to treat 30 children for trachoma for a year. $4 —the vaccine to protect 400 children from tuberculosis. $2 —the penicillin to cure 40 children of the tropical crippier, yaws. $1 —vitamin capsules for 400 children. One cent provides five glasses of milk somewhere in the hungry world. Take a look at your own children, and think how much it’s worth. I" 11 "i— ! H—!■■ ■ ll >1 .11 I— .1 I-—. I I"I " —

Southern Governors In Annual Meeting ASHEVILLE, N. C. (UPI) — Democratic Party politics and the South’s role in the 1960 conven- • tion dominated the 25th annual Southern Governors Conference today and for the present took the sting out of the burning racial issueGovernors, willing at the drop of a hat to talk about next year’s elections, were reluctant to be drawn out on segregation. Today’s session was a mixture of problems and relaxation. The morning was devoted to opening addresses by Gov. J. P. Coleman, of Mississippi, conference chairman; Gov. Luther H. Hodges of North Carolina, host governor, and Gov. J Caleb Boggs of Delaware, chairman of the National Governors Conference. Arkansas Gov. Orval E. Faubus, the main news source of the 1957 and 1958 sessions because of the Little Rock school integration situation, came here convinced that even in the Arkansas capital time would heal the wounds of bitterness. Faubus told United Press International he feels racial strife is only a symptom of deep trouble in the United States for which “we must find an answer.” “Our country is just about on the rocks morally,” Faubus said. “We must recapture the real spirit of Christianity that is the foundation of America. “Somehow the leadership seems to have been taken away from moderates guided by the principles of Christianity and placed in the hands of “radical elements.” The South’s position one year ahead of the Los Angeles democratic convention was reflected at marathon news conferences and in off the cuff talks with reporters Summed up, the Asheville thinking was this: —The South probably will not entertain thoughts of a walkout in 1960. —Sens. Lyndon Johnson of Texas, Stuart Symington of Missouri and John Kennedy of Massachusetts probably would be acceptable to most Southern states. - i-— ........ p ——-; —

Mamie Eisenhower Suffers Sore Throat WASHINGTON (UPD—Mrs. Mamie Eisenhower had a slight sore throat Sunday night and was unable to attend a Mexican Embassy dinner in honor of her and the President. Mrs. Mary Jane McCaffree. the First Lady’s personal secretary, said Mrs. Eisenhower’s condition was not serious but that her phyician had advised her to skip the dinner. It was given by visiting Mexican President and Mrs. Adolfo Lopez Mateos. Says Columbus Did Not Find America MOSCOW (UPD — A Soviet historian said Sunday that Christopher Columbus did not “discover” America because he had learned of its existence from a dying sailor who already had sailed to the Antilles and back. A Moscow Radio home service broadcast identified the historian as a Professor Tsypernik, candidate of history and lecturer at Kazakh Pedagogic Institute. He said Columbus and Queen Isabella teamed up to hoodwink historians. The professor said Columbus really was an exponent of colonization who made up the story of fabulous Oriental riches to make people believe he had discovered a short cut to Asia and to make Spanish colonization popular, he said, Columbus altered his diaries to fool the world. “I recently found a secret letter addressed to Columbus by the Spanish royal couple Ferdinand and Isabella,” Tsypernik said. “The letter makes it clear that Columbus knew not only of the position of the Antilles, but also what could be found there and how the land could be used by the Spaniards.” (Tsypernik’s claims raised no eyebrows in Madrid where one of Spain’s top Columbus scholars said “historians here have been saying the same thing ever since the 16th century ” (Ciriaco Perez Bustamante, a member of the Royal Academy of History in Madrid, said many historians had published the idea that Columbus had lifted the secret of America from a dying sailor. (The story as told in various Spanish reference books is that Columbus befriended a man sometimes identified as Alonzo Sanchez and that Sanchez gave him maps of the New World and told him of his visit as he lay dying. (The Spanish historian said this account cannot be proved and many of the historians who told this version were jealous of Columbus’ glory and fame.)
