Principal speaker at the launch-

Campaign workers have announced | that they plan to visit every home, | office, factory and place of business| in Marion county in their determination to reach the goal during the - seventeen-day drive. “We expect to blanket this county with red feathers in the next two weeks,” Walter Leckrone, gen-| eral campaign chairman said. The red feather is a symbol of a gift! to the fund. Most Critical Year

“Fund agencies face their most critical year in 1947 because the job they are being called upon to do here in Marion county is greater than it ever was,” Mr. Leckrone said. “Problems coming with the backwash of the war will put heavy loads on the agencies. Increases in broken homes are growing steadily. Juvenile delinquency is on the increase, along with disease, mental illness, veterans’ problems, and the number of small children needing community care.

LAKE SUCCESS, N. Y. Nov. 4 (U. P.).—The battle of trusteeships

with Britain.- accusing Russia of |

ments and blocking the establishment of the new system for administering territory taken from Woe enemy. Ivor Thomas, British delegate, bitterly attacked Russia before the trusteeship committee. Earlier, Prime Minister Jan Christian Smuts of the Union of South Africa argued for annexation of southwest Africa, “Our delegation was astonished to learn from, Mr, Molgtov's speech in, the general assembly last week that he was so ill-informed” on the subjest of trusteeship agreements, * Mr. Thomas said. He referred to Mr. Molotov’s charge that powers holding as. | dates over former German territory had not taken a single step toward setting up trusteeships. | “So far as Great Britain is concerned, every step has been taken,” Mr. Thomas claimed. He said Britain had: prepared trusteeship agreements for all its mandated African territories and circulated copies to other governments—“including, I may say; the Soviet governments tv. "
