December 28, 1956 County Committee members have sug gested that groups of eight to 12 people gather informally in homes for the foreign policy study. It is not necessary that group leaders be exceptionally informed on foreign policy, com mittee members pointed out, just that they study pertinent material and guide the discus sion. A special meeting for dis cussion leaders is planned. Mrs. Ronald James and Mrs. Irving Thomas are assisting on the Great Decisions planning committee by contacting local women's clubs. Opinions and conclusions of various discussion groups will be compiled by discussion leaders and forwarded to congress, Wash ington, DC, presenting a cross section of ideas on the direction they prefer U.S. foreign policy to follow. The Medford Public library will serve as a place where the fact sheets issued for individuals and discussion groups can be obtained. A preliminary list of the areas to be covered in the eight-week program include Russia, Europe, the Middle East. Red China, Colonialism, Neutralism, mili tary strategy, and trade and aid.
