Thanksgiving week marks the start of simultaneous but sepa rate appeals by Protestant, Cath olic and Jewish relief organiza tions which have become the primary channels for "person to person" American aid to desti tude families abroad. Operating with low overhead costs, and making full use of sur plus farm products made avail able free by the Agriculture De partment, these religious agen cies offer Americans an oppor tunity to dispense a great deal of charity for comparatively little money. Each dollar of private contri butions moves about 300 pounds of food overseas. A $5 donation will give bowls of cereal to 500 undernourished' children each day for three weeks. Ten dollars will provide bread for 400 needy persons for two months. More Aid Needed This year the religious agen ces are distributing nearly 1,500,000,000 pounds of food, 30,000,000 articles of clothing and thousands of tons of blankets and medicine in 80 foreign coun tries. But even this program has barely scratched the surface of chronic poverty and under nourishment. The agencies hope to do much more next year if the Thanksgiving appeals bring in enough contributions, Proceeds of the Protestant "Share Our Surplus" drive will go to Church World Service, the inter-denominational relief arm of the ' National Council of Churches. Contributions may be made through local churches by placing in the collection plate a check or envelope earmarked for "Share Our Surplus." Or they may be sent directly to Church World Service, 215 Fourth ave., New York. Catholics are being asked to contribute 10 million pounds of clothing through "The Bishops Thanksgiving Clothing Collec tion," which is more familiarly known .in many Catholic par ishes as "Operation Clothes Clo set." The clothing collected by local churches will be shipped abroad and distributed by Cath olic Relief Services, a branch of the National Catholic Welfare Conference. Catholics are asked to donate money for overseas relief in a Pilgrims and Indians In School Competition Several hundred Pilgrims and Indians will attend the .First Church of the Nazarene, Sun day, when members commem orate the first Thanksgiving with a little friendly competi tion in a Sunday school contest. One half of the Sunday school, under the leadership of Pilgrim Governor Hochhalter, will be in competition against the remaind er of the membership led by Indian Chief, Bill Brewster. Their goal is to exceed Sunday school attendance records pre viously set on Thanksgiving Sun day. The first Thanksgiving feast will be commemorated at the close of the pastor's sermon, when the annual thanksgiving offering will be received for the denominations foreign mission work. Musical number by the choir, under the direction of W. Lee Mansveld, will be, "Let us Praise God".

Slaughter of Dallas, Texas, said in a lecture on Christian Science here Thursday evening. "Ever increasing numbers of people are gaining freedom from discords of every kind through an awakened under standing of God and man's re lationship to him," Mr. Slaught er continued. The speaker, who spoke on the subject "Christian Science: Its Message of Liberation," dur ing the course of his lecture described healings through spir itual means alone of alcoholism, influenza, and accidental injur ies.
