Aug.' 2. — Subscriptions to local dailies} throughout the state of Florida, to be delivered for use by men being processed for Army dis-: charge at Camp Blanding’s Sep- aration Center, would be pur- chased by local civic groups under a Red Cross-sponsored program,! A. J. Kassay, executive secretar; of the Northeastern Florida Camp; and Hospital Council, announced today. “Seeing the local newspaper is the first big thrill of homecoming for many of the returned over seas veterans,” Mr. Kassay said. We, would like to apply theicam- paign to local dailies and weeklies, but the tremdenous number | of, weekly papers would lead to such| a large pile in Seperation Center} dayrooms that the men would! have trouble getting at them.” Under the program envisioned | by the Red Cross here, the vari-j ous Camp and Hospital Councils —each representing groups of ap- proximately a ozen counties— would contact local chapters. The local Red Cross chapters would in turn offer the subscription plan‘ as a project for local civic groups. “It will be one step toward or- ienting the returned soldier to) home, when he gets an advance! peek at the home-town newspap- | er,” Mr. Kassay pointed out. “We; know that the men go through the Seperation Center in. little- over 24 hours, but during late-evening hours, and during any delay for last-minute medical service, men will appreciate a preview of that precious link with home, the home-town paper.” CLEMENT “ATTLEE BACK IN LONDON PRIME MINISTER GREETED BY LARGE CROWD UPON HIS ARRIVAL (By Associated Press) LCNDON, Aug. 2.—Prime Minister Attlee returned to- day to this city and was met by a large crowd of his ad-| herents at 10 Downing street.
