I I WednesdayApril S. 1950 j im-aummmmKKmm'f Parents Find Son After 30-Year Hunt Denver, Pr. 5 (UP) Mr. and Mrs. George Hill awaited their son's' homecoming today, after 30 years of heartbreaking search. Mr. and Mrs. Hill, former residents of Macomb, 111., who now live here, discovered their son, James Curtis Hill, through the veteran's administration af ter learning he had been a para trooper. Mrs. Hill said that in 1920 she left her son Curt, then five, in her grandparents' home in Macomb after a bitter quarrel. When she returned with her husband to get the boy after finding another place to live she found them gone. They had tak en Curt with them. The parents spent hundreds of dollars following up tips through the next 30 years, during which three other children were born to the couple. But they never gave up, and when Mrs. Hill learned through relatives that Curt had been a paratrooper she finally contacted him through the national service life insur ance administration. She found Curt in Reno, Nev., and today had a letter from him saying that he would visit her soon. COAL POURS IN Kenvlr, Ky.

TELEPHONE 2 5201 Easier Seal Drive Support Urged as Final Day Nears "Easter Seals help crippled children walk, play and learn in other words they help han dicapped youngsters lit into the normal scheme of life," Mrs. C. B. Partch, chairman of this year's Easter Seal drive, said today. She urged community participation in the drive, which comes to its conclusion Easter Sunday, April 9. The Easter Seal itself, Mrs. Partch pointed out, symbolizes the work done by the 2,000 Easter Seal societies affiliated with the National Society for Crippled Children and Adults. Seal Is Symbol The 1950 Seal, picturing a lit tle boy tossing his crutches aside and taking his first steps for ward is the symbol of the work done by the local society as well as others of the national feder ation, is offering medical, edu cational, rehabilitation, employ ment and recreational services to the handicapped, she said. "The Easter Seal is 17 years old this year, and has been re sponsible for raising millions of dollars for work with the crip pled," Mrs. Partch pointed out. "There are eight million handi capped children under the age of 21 in the United States to day, of which several are right here in our community. The funds we raise will be used here to aid them with direct services." Drive Widespread To emphasize the national scope of the Easter Seal drive, Mrs. Partch declared that last year Easter Seals went into 23 million homes during the 1949 campaign. "The more seals used in our community, the more services we can finance for our crippled neighbors." Mrs. Partch said. "We have seen the public's con fidence in our work year after year, as it is expressed in sup port of the Easter Seal drive. It is our hope that the confidence will be even greater in this year's campaign and permit us .a nnt mitniiv maintain nur nres- ent services but to add new ones."

He demanded a "cessation of money-squandering to prop up the economies of foreign countries." Speaking to a group of about SO persons at the Medford high school auditorium in his cam paign to unseat Oregon's Sena tor Wayne Morse. Hoover de clared that the European aid program is a loss as far as pro moting foreign trade is concern ed, is ineffective as a deterrent to communism, and is a failure in its efforts to win friends for the United States. ECA funds, Hoover said, should have been spent in the United States instead of being spent in a program that "has made Uncle Sam an Uncle Sap." Quotes Sen. Malon The speaker read a statement by Nevada's Senator George Malone to back up his conten tion that the Marshall plan has succeeded only in furnishing Russia, indirectly, with processes and manufactured supplies it needs for World War III. Hoov er claimed the Marshall plan has headed us toward bankrupt cy. Hoover used the final few min utes of his talk to attack the "so-called bi-partisan foreign policy," and denounced Senator Morse for his support of it. He was equally severe with Secre tary of State Dean Acheson. "Morse," Hoover declared, "en dorses Acheson and Acheson will not turn his back on Hiss." President Truman was criti cized for his spending policies, and Hoover claimed Morse has aided Truman in becoming the nation's greatest spendthrift. Hoover continues his cam paign tour with speeches in Klamath Falls and Bend today.
