C, APRIL 14, 1940—PART ONE Bundle Campaign Of Salvation Army To Begin Tomorrow Cast-Offs ‘Are Needed To Help Men Win Back Their Self-Respect A hand cart with the red shield of the Salvation Army was a fa- miliar sight on Washington streets 45 years ago. So were the horse-driven vehicles that followed it, plodding up one street and down another seeking bundles to carry back to the home of the Salvation Army on Pennsyl- vania avenue. That old home and the hand cart and the horse-driven carriages have given way to a-dozen modern trucks and a handsome bullding at 526 First street N.W. But the need is still the same. The Salvation Army still needs the castoffs from attics, cellars and closets to help down-but-not-out men and their families win back their self-respect and a place in the community. Drive Opens Tomorrow. The Salvation Army’s annual bundle campaign will open tomor- |row and continue through May 5, running at the time most house- \;Aves are doing spring house clean- ng. ! Last year the Salvation Army | served 85,561 meals, gave bed space 28,730 times, paid in cash grants $36,884.17. The employment bureau placed without charge 186 men and 275 women and furnished 48,860 hours of work. During the last 12 months the average turnover in the institution has been approximately 500, the average stay being three months. As each man obtains em- ployment replacements are made accordingly. Men Are Given Jobs. ‘When men apply to the Salvation Army for help they are assigned to their customary occupation, thereby enabling them to regain their old skills, Some are assigned to recon- ditioning furniture, clothing and in- | numerable types of household goods | idle and dusty in the backs of closets. In the First street building the Salvation Army has a large dining nd dormitories, besides a book- tore, antique shop and general store. . The slogan for the Salvation Army's campaign this year and what it hopes the public will re- member when the red shield trucks rumble by is “Share what you can spare.” Roosevelt __(Continued Prom Pirst Page) _ their peoples from the disaster that will not attack or invade the terri- tory or possessions” of a long list the Netherlands, Belgium, Poland— most of the nations of Europe and least 10 or 25 years. that came a few days later, Secree tary Hull on October 2, 1930, an- nounced continued United States recognition of the government of Poland. “More than 20 years ago the United States recognized, and has since maintained diplomatic rela- tions with, the Polish government,” Mr. Hull said. “Poland is now the victim of force used as an instru- ' SIXTY DELUXE e s QPP % Oldsmobile prices begin at $807 for Coupes, $853 for Sedans, delivered at Lansing, Michig Transportation based on rail rates, state and local taxes (if any), optional equipment and acces- sories—extra.

Finnish Invasion Tragic. ‘The subsequent invasion of Fin- land by Soviet Russia brought from President Roosevelt last December 1 & statement summing up this Gov- ernment’s attitude toward aggres- zlon. He siad: “It is tragic to see the policy of force spreading, and to realize that wanton disregard for law is still on the march. All peace-loving peoples in those nations that are still hop- ing for the continuance of relations throughout the world on the basis of law and order will unanimously condemn this new resort to mili- tary force as the arbiter of inter- national differences. “To the great misfortune of the world, the present trend to force makes insecure the independent existence of small nations in every continent and jeopardizes the rights of mankind to self-government.” The ending of the Russo-Pinnish war brought another expression of policy from Mr. Roosevelt, its con- clusion being that victory for the aggressor in that instance “does not yet clarify the inherent right of small nations to the maintenance of their integrity against attack by superior force.” A particular expression of this Government's sympathy for the peaceful desires of the Scandinavian states was extended last October in a telegram from President Roosevelt to King Gustaf V of Sweden on the occasion of a wartime policy | conference of the heads of the | Scandinavian countries at Stock- | holm. | Five.
