Oil .on St., Portland, Orow members have accepted a major responsibility," Thomas (aid. "With this type of cooperation, and united effort, the success of the 1962 campaign seems assured." Emphasis this year, Thomas said, will be directed toward giv ing every business and worker an opportunity to contribute a "fair share" toward the social agencies benefitting the community. Every effort will be made to avoid duplication in solicitations, he said. , Limit Solicitation "This means our residential con tacts will be limited to financially able retired persons eliminating the irritation resulting from con tacting housewives whose husbands have contributed through their bus iness or payroll deduction. This conserves the 'woman-power' pre viously used on those contacts for more productive efforts," Thomas said. i "The CDUF board is also pleas ed with this year's cooperation from participating agencies. At our meeting, April 14, ll agency representatives indicated a willing ness to cooperate in recruiting campaign workers. "The agencies, too, have been cooperative in accepting CDUF recommendations concerning sup plemental fund raising activities," he said. "A June capital funds drive con templated by one of the participat ing agencies which was disapprov ed by the board at its May 14 meet ing, seems to be the single remain ing obstacle in maintaining a cli mate for united giving compatible with United Fund objectives and success," Thomas concluded.

PTAs Support Federal Aid For Education PORTLAND (AP) The presi dent of the National Congress of Parents and Teachers says 36 state PTAs have indicated full support of the national group's stand in favor of limited federal aid to education. Mrs. Clifford N. Jenkins of Ros lyn Heights, N.Y., said there have been published reports recently that the national congress does not accurately relief the views of the state bodies. "These stories are wrong, and I can prove it," she said in an interview Sunday, at the opening of the national congress' 65th an nual convention. She said she had personally polled each state president and found that 36 backed the national congress. Mrs. Jenkins said the national congress believes some form of federal aid to education is neces sary and justifiable providing local and state control of education is assured, federal funds are used for public, tax-supported schools only, the federal funds are distributed to state departments of education and become state funds, and that the federal funds support but do not substitute for state funds. 'If we don't get the right kind of federal program, we certainly will get the wrong kind, she said. Mrs. Jenkins also said federal control of education in this coun try is inevitable unless the states and local communities make much greater efforts than at present to upgrade their schools.

A committee appointed at the meeting has set this week of May 21 through 26 as a special city clean-up week. The Rev. Norman Naugler, com mittee chairman, pointed out that the special emphasis week was in tended to be only 'a beginning for a general program of improvement rather than an end in itself. Glendale city councilmen voted at their last meeting to cooperate with the program and to furnish a city truck to pick up trash which individuals will collect from their property. It may be piled by the street or alley where the cily truck can reach it.

With the exception of France, all other members of the eight nation anti-Communist alliance have indicated a willingness to send token forces if Thailand asks for them. The Tiai government called on the Americans but there has been report further help would be sought from others, at least at this time. The Laotian border was quiet. but the Communist bloc warned the massing of American troops along the frontier threatened to stir up trouble. The Soviet Communist party or gan Pravda warned the American landings in Thailand may "cause retaliatory action from the other side.'' . 'Such actions of the United States," Pravda said, "will in crease the danger of war, not only on the frontiers of Laos, but in all the area of Southeast Asia." Soviet Premier Khrushchev and Bulgarian Communist party lead er Todor Shivkov, in a communi que at the end of Khrushchev's visit to Bulgaria, called the Amer ican troop landings in Thailand l extension of the aggressive actions of the United States against the people of Southeast Asia." The Peiping People's Daily, of ficial voice of Red China, charged the American troop movements "constitute a serious threat to the security of China." Prince Soueanna Phouma, the man whom both, the West and East hope will take Laos out of the cold war, said the American troops in Thailand posed no threat to Laos even though he regretted they were sent there. The neutralist leader was in a confident mood during a stopover in Calcutta on his' way back to Laos for negotiations on formation of a national unity government. He predicted these sessions would halt all fighting in Laos and bring about an independent, neutral re gime under his leadership. KC To Finance Textbook Appeal NEW HAVEN, Conn.

Delegates to the congress' an nual convention were given a wide-ranging list of projects to be tackled by 12 million members of 47,000 local PTA's.
