Nelson G. Grills, D-Indianapolis, said Monday that he will meet later this week with the Federation of Churches to assist in working out problems of housing for persons who may be displaced by a new interstate highway system in Marion County. Grills said in a letter tq the Rev. Andrew J. Brown, who had asked Dr. Martin Luther King to come to the capital city to help in the matter, that the problem of finding suitable housing for the persons displaced “must not be confused with the problem of finding a suitable location for these highways.” “My criticism of persons who only protest, and my recommendation that our attention should be directed toward affirmative answers to the problems we face,” Grills said, “has placed me in a position that requires my participation in the solution of the problem of persons being displaced by the construction of the interstate highway system in Marion County.” Grills said he would meet with the church group Thursday morning to implement the taking of a survey to determine information concerning the families affected. The survey would determine whether homes are presently rented or being purchased, the monthly rental or mortgage payments being made, the age of the head of the household, the number of children in each household, and the average family income of each fam-

ily.

He said Frank McKinney, president of the American Fletcher National Bank, had agreed to help with planning a program to finance new construction and to otherwise meet the needs of the displaced persons. He also said Frank McHale, a Democratic Indianapolis attorney, had agreed to help in working out legal aspects of the program. “May God s will be done through his people in Marion County that all might be free from bondage, both political and economic,'’ Grills said.

Dear Editor:

The Fair on the Square committee of the Greencastle Chamber of Commerce would like to take this means of thanking the people of Greencastle and Putnam County who participated in and patronized this year’s Fair. Although planning for the event did not begin until late, and despite the fact that the program of events was nqt as extensive as in past years, the committee is overjoyed with the reception given the Fair by so many of our citizens. At the risk of overlooking someone, we would particularly like to pay tribute to the following local people, without whose services the Fair could never have been produced: eo-chair-men Wayne Hopkins and Tom Hardwick of the Parade Committee; band chairman Carl Hurst, ably assisted by Pete Hill; booth chairman Miss Elizabeth Ann Cannon; publicity director Mrs. Leota Fuller; finance chairman Mace Aker; and master of ceremonies Ben Cannon. Also, Chief Roy Newgent and the entire City Police Department; Sgt. Baumunk and the local National Guard unit; and Ed Raines and his crews from the Indiana State Highway Department. In addition, the cooperation of the local press and radio was indispensable. Thanks, too, to the Castle Squares dance group for their evening of entertainment, and to the Castle Watters C.B. Club for their help during the parade. Last, a hearty thank you” to Chamber Secretary, Mrs. Mary Evelyn Goodhue, for her unceasing job of planning, co-ordinating, and

detail work.

Many others, of course, are worthy of a full share of credit but space prevents our singling them out here for praise. The cooperation of the merchants was deeply appreciated. The judges of the various contests were faced with difficult decisions and performed admirably. All of the organizations who sponsored booths, food tents, parade entrants, or helped in any way are to be heartily congrat-

ulated.

In conclusion, our sincere thanks to everyone who participated or added to the success of the occasion, especially those who patronized the various events. The Fair on the Square committee sincerely hopes that everyone found our efforts to be worthwhile. Yours very truly. Richard Sunkel, Chm. Fair on the Square Committee

Wildcat Strike At Muncie Plant MUNCIE UPI—Members of Local 231 of the United Auto Workers struck the Muncie Gear Works in what was termed by the company as a “wildcat strike.” About 125 workers, or about 80 per cent of the day shift, walked out of the plant at noon and put up picket lines a short while later. About 300 to 400 workers were expected to be involved in the strike. Union president Charles Current said the dispute was over an interpretation of the contract. The plant manufactures rocket components which are sent almost directly to the airmen in Viet Nam. Management spokesmen said that the company had no advance warning of the strike. Ray Abrams, plant manager, said he was not aware of any dispute and that there were no outstanding grievances. The union called a “marathon” meeting at the union hall for workers from the three shifts. Current said the union wanted to get the matter settled as quickly as possible so there would be ‘the least time lost for the company.”

Samsel wish to acknowledge with deep appreciation the kindness, sympathy and beautiful floral tributes extended by our relatives, friends and neighbors in our time of bereavement.

summer.

The main aspect of the project now under consideration was the lake. According to

Brummett most of the funds were available including $700 to $1000 that could be acquired from the Federal Government.
