4 Million Grant
Announced for Relief
Washington flJ.R) Presi
dent Eisenhower Saturday an-
nounced an emergency grant of
$4 million to help Austria care
for the thousands of Hungarian
refugees who have poured across
her border.
The money will be channeled
through the United Nations. It
will supplement $1 million set
aside Nov. 13 for the same pur
pose. The government action came
as the American Red Cross re
ported with "concern" that pri
vate contributions to its special
$5 million appeal for Hungarian
j reIlcI are laKKnS
Red Cross Chairman E. Ro
land Harriman said the drive,
which started Nov. 27, had
brought in S2.142,317,-or less
than 40 per cent of the goal
through Friday.
Relief Agency '
Harriman said the Interna-
j tional Red Cross, through which
tlie American Red Cross sends
its contributions, is the only re
lief agency allowed to operate
inside Hungary, distributing
food, clothing and medical sup
plies to impoverished Hungar
ians who have not fled the coun
try.
While House Press Secretary
James C. Hasertv said the new
government contribution is "in

Brief Filed With
CAB on Air Service
The Jackson County Chamber
of Commerce has filed a 30-page
brtef with the Civil Aeronautics
board in Washington, D. C, on
behalf of the Pacifie Northwest
locai service case.
The brief promotes establish
ment of a triangular air route
unking Klamath. . Falls, Reno,
Nev., Winnemucca, Nev., Boise,
Ida., Burns and Lakciew.
The Jackson county court,
cities of Medford and Grants
Pass; and the Josephine County
Chamber of Commerce joined
the Jackson County Chamber of
Commerce- in supporting the
move.
The brief notes that economic
expansion of Jaekson and Jose
phine counties in recent years
and indications of more growth
in the future would make the
triangular route desirable in
southern Oregon.
Popular use of air service at
Medford and the lack of rail
passenger service in this area
are also given as examples of
need and potential assurance of
success' for such a route. The
brief also urges the board to
award the route to an airline
which will provide integrated
service.
Several graphs and tables are
also included in the brief.
Stores to Remain Open
Evenings This Week
Most Medford retail stores will
be open until 9 p.m. every night
this week in accordance with a
recent decision by the Retail
Merchants committee of the
Jackson County Chamber of
Commerce.
The stores have been staying
opn until 9 p.m. on Wednes
days in recent week?. Stores

refugees."
Hagerty said "more than 130,-
000" Hungarians have fled into
Austria from their Soviet-ravag
ed homeland.
Although the United States
Canada, and Western European
nations are cooperating in a vast
resettlement program, it is ev
ident that Austria will play host
to many thousands through the
winter.
The cost of housing, feeding,
clothing and medical care is a
heavy burden on the small cen
tral European country. Hence
the UN appeal to the United
States and other nations to
help.
Hagerty said the $4 million
will come from President Eis
enhower's special $100 million
emergency relief fund. The
check probably will be deliver
ed to the UN this week.
Ton of Clothing Is
Collected by UN
Group for Relief
Approximately a ton of cloth
ing said to be in unusually good
condition, was collected last
week by the Medford chapter.
Oregon United Nations associa
tion, for Hungarian relief. Thirty
large cartons were made ready
for shipment Friday at St.
Mark's Episcopal church and
were taken to San Francisco by
Pierce Auto freight without
charge.
The clothing was sent to the
American Friends Service com
mittee world-wide relief organ
ization. The clothing was pack
ed by Mrs. W. D. Pearson, Jack
sonville, who has had consider
able experience in this type of
relief work. Mrs. Harlan P. Bos
worth Jr., Mrs. Bnjno Pellegrini
and others. The Rev. Thomas
McCamsnt assisted with roping
of cartons.
Thursday Mrs. Hugh Inele,
Mrs. Ethel Nicodemus. Mrs. Eva
Ringo and Mrs. Pitts were at
St. Mark's hall to receive con
tributions. Some clothing was
sent to be cleaned, and will be
shipped later. Mrs. Pearson sta
ed that the clothing was in un
usually eood condition, and
needed little cleaning or re
pair. Although extremely pleased
with the contributions, it was
pointed out that "this is not the
end of the problem." The ex
tensive relief work of the AFSC
calls for considerable money and
it was said that anyone wishing
to make contributions should
send them to "American Friends
Service Committee, Inc., 1108
S. E. Grand avenue, Portland,

This may be done as a Christ

Troops Seize 1,
Egyptians After
Guerrilla Attacks
UN Emergency Force
Among Those Attacked
Port Said, Egypt (U.R) Brit
ish troops seized 1,000 Egyptians
Saturday after guerrilla rocket
and machine gun attacks on Brit
ish and United Nations forces in
this occupied city.
Some 600 British tommies
sealed off the Arab quarter and
rounded up 1,000 residents dur
ing a house-to-house search for
arms.
The crackdown resulted from
a series of five attacks between
midnight and dawn against Brit
ish troops and a tank squadron
and Norwegian U.N. emergency
force patrols.
Two Killed
Two Egyptains were killed and
14 wounded. A British officer
and a French soldier were hurt
in the clashes which were the
first since the invasion cease
fire.
The attackers, described as
"Fedayeen" (suicide commandos)
used rockets, machine guns, gre
nades and small arms.
The British commander, Lt,
Gen. Sir Hugh Stockwell protest
ed to the U.N. commander, Maj.
Gen. E. L. M. Burns and warned
he would take mailers into his
own hands if the attacks do not
stop.
The Egyptian government dis
claimed any knowledge of the
attacks and demanded that Port
Said be turned over to Egyptian
authorities.
Questioned
Half of the men arrested in the
roundup were released after
questioning. The rest, men of
military age, were held for furth
er investigation.
British tanks were moved to
the waterfront to protect troops
embarking for home.
It appeared, however, that the
withdrawal of British and French
occupation forces- was being de
layed for technical reasons.
The UNEF commander in Port
Said, Col. Carl Engholin of Den
mark, said delay developed be
cause of an unexplained slowness
in getting French transports to
the Port Said embarkation area.

"There was a realistic facing

Listing achievements of the
