Special Perry Township Meeting Plans ‘Last Ditch Fight.’

As the State Highway Commission | made plans today for the construc-| tion of the first portion of a new| U. S. 31 highway from Indianapolis | to Greenwood, a special committee of the Perry Township Business Men's Club, Inc. prepared to make a “last ditch” fight to block the road The committee is to decide what form of action to take at a meeting tonight at the home of Elmer E. Houze, 5235 Madison Ave. The meeting was called by Howard Smith, club president, after the Highway Commission announced yesterday that bids for construction of 49 miles of the highway, running from a point one mile south of Greenwood to the Southport road, will be taken Aug. 27. The engineer's estimate for the cost of this portion of the proposed ninemile road is $113,000. The Perry Township organization has opposed the relocation of U. S. 31 since it was first proposed, but its efforts to block the new highway | so far have been futile.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1 (U. P).— Lord Lothian, the British ambas- | sador, said today that as many as 50,000 British children could be |evacuated to the United States if | American ships were available for | their transport, but that his country |lacks a sufficient number of convated vessels to assure their safety. | Lord Lothian gave his report on child refugees in a letter to Rep. | Thomas C. Hennings Jr. (D. Mo.), lauthor of a bill to authorize | American ships to evacuate them. | He said he was writing at the sug{gestion of Eric Biddle, secretary of {the U. S. Committee for the Care lof European Children. | “In the circumstances,” Lord Lothian said, “I am glad to inform you that there is a large number of children available if American ships are sent to the United Kingdom to fetch them. His Majesty's Government has decided that it cannot assume the responsibility for sending children to the North American Continent in British ships unless they are convoyed.”
