Brademas Announces Plans For Construction Os New Goshen P. 0.
WASHINGTON, D. C.,Congressman John Brademas (D.-Ind.) today announced U.S. Post Office Department plans for construction of a new post office building in Goshen, Indiana. Said Brademas, “A new post office for Goshen will mean improved postal service for the citizens of the Goshen community and a significant contribution to the area economy. Earlier plans to remodel the existing facility, built in 1913, would have been far less satisfactory than constructing a new building.” Brademas, with the support of Goshen officials, was instrumental in having the needs of the current Goshen Post Office restudyed by Post Office Department personnel last spring. This restudy followed announcement early in 1969 that the General Services Administration (GSA) would remodel the existing structure. The survey resulted in today’s decision to abandon the present Goshen Post Office in the Federal

The organization’s War Cry Selling Brigade traveled count ywide to distribute 3.000 Christmas periodicals. War Crys were sold in Syracuse. North Webster, Pierceton. Sidney, Bourbon. Mentone. Silver Lake, Leesburg. Milford, Winona Lake, Plymouth, Bremen and Warsaw. The young people celebrated their success with a victory dinner and roller skating party following Christmas. The traditional kettle booth and re» kettle stayed on Warsaw streets throughout the season to raise $3,272.29 to purchase supplies and produce. The team was supported by the bellringing activities of the Rotary club of Warsaw, the Kosciusko County Fraternal Order of Police. the Kiwanis club of Warsaw-, and the Warsaw Lions club which raised $2,035.42 combined. The clubs vied for first, second, and third place trophies.

The Women's Auxiliary of the local citadel prepared and operated a Community Christmas Toy Shop Tor underprivileged children and their families. Toys were distributed to 209 youthful recipients on the basis of two apiece. Hundreds of -dollars worth of brand new toys were received from a special allotment given to The Salvation Army and a holiday donation by members of the Rotary club of Warsaw.

Building in favor of the new leased facility. The South Bend Democrat said, “Postmaster General Winton M. Blount has informed that the policy of the Post Office Department is to use existing buildings where they can be suitably altered or remodeled to meet the needs of the ever increasing volume of mail. However, in this case new construction is clearly called for and should cut down on post office operating costs.” The new building will be constructed under the Post Office Department's lease construction program, thereby keeping the building on local tax roles. Under the program, the site will be assigned to the lowest bidder on the construction contract for the new building. The successful bidder will purchase the property, build the facility to postal requirements, and lease it to the Post Office Department for a specified period. No site has yet been selected for the new building.
tributed to 92 local families by members of the Kosciusko County Emergency Radio team known as KEMRAD and other interested community groups and individuals. The baskets contained foods basic to a wholesale meal with special emphasis on meat, vegetables, milk and fruit. The Warsaw citadel also offered the countvwide community the services of its community clearinghouse designed to coordinate efforts so that no deserving family would be overlooked during Christmas and no one given more than they needed nor wanted. The services were voluntary and useful to 152 family appli-, cants. Names were submitted to the clearinghouse by private citizens, ministers, business people, school teachers, policemen and army workers. The clearinghouse provided 130 names of children for the Kiwanis club's annual children’s Christmas party and the toy distribution program of the Warsaw firemen.
