The Lane county, Ore., dele gation to the AMA conven tion here had introduced the resolution. It said many of the children brought in to the country had communica ble diseases and asked Con gress to change the law to pro vide more strict "control" of their entry. The .AMA Committee on Legislation and Public Rela tions added the following re port to the proposed resolu tion; 1 . . . "The American people should be highly commended for opening their homes to Korean orphans and for adopt ing these children. It hopes that those individuals who have undertaken the task of transporting these unfortunate children to their new homes will be able to continue then wonderful work." The AMA House of Dele gates passed the resolution without dissent. Christian Orphan Plan Started With Barber Shop Conversation English is the predominant tongue in Trinidad, although many languages are spoken by . the island's diversified population. By LOUIS CASSELS United Press International Kim Kwang Hyung was four years old when a GI pa trol found him lying on a heap of rags in t h e cellar of a bomb flattened house in Ko rea. His legs yere shrivel led and his stomach bloat ed by malnutrition. Today Kim boisterous 10 lives with 200 a well-kept On 1 ffMKM I Louis Cassels is a healthy, year-old. He other orphans on farm near Anyang, Korea. his birthday, at Christmas, and several other times dur ing the year, he receives pack ages of clothing, toys and food from an elderly couple in Iowa. Kim is one of 23,000 chil dren who have been "adopt ed" by Americans through a remarkable organization call ed the Christian Children's Fund (CCF). CCF is the largest Protes tant child welfare agency in the world. It operates or helps to operate 287 orphanages in 35 countries around the world. All Began in Barbershop It was founded in 1938 by a Presbyterian minister, Dr. J. Calvitt Clarke, who still serves as its international di rector. Clarke recalls that CCF was born in a barber shop conversation ' with a Methodist missionary who re cently had returned from China. The missionary noted Clarke's experience in philan thropic fund - raising, and asked: "Why don't you do something for these chil dren?" Clarke thought it over for about 10 seconds and an nounced, "All right, I will." The organization he found ed "with a prayer and a dol lar's worth of stationery" has collected more than $30 mil lio in the 20 years since. Most of this money has gone directly to orphans in need. CCF operates with one of the lowest overhead costs of any charitable agency in existence. Last year, about 12 per cent of its total budget went into administrative ex penses, including fund-raising costs. The rest went to feed. clothe, shelter and educate orphans. Although CCF has built some model orphanagesf of its Cash Awards Are Presented to VA Employees at CW Camp White Cash awards have been presented to 30 Veterans administration em ployees, including 15 staff members, with letters of com mendation to six others in the annual VA Incentive Awards program.

This help includes providing them with whatever margin of fi nancial aid they may need to improve their facilities or to take in additional children. Must Have Medical Attention CCF will give help to an Four Alarm Fire Destroys Plant Portland (UPI) A four alam fire early today destroy ed the compressor plant of an ice and cold storage com pany and sent ammonia fumes through adjacent buildings and the nearby area. The blaze, which broke out about 4:30 a.m.., was confined to a basement room housing refrigeration machinery of the Northwestern Ice & Cold Storage company's Union ave nue branch at 411 N.E. 3rd ave. Firemen had to use gas masks to get to the blaze and masks were needed hours later to survey damage. De spite the fames, no one was overcome. A plant spokesman esti mated loss at more than $70, 000. He said about 25 em ployees would be temporarily idled. Cause of the blaze was not determined immediately but John Farber, fire investigator, said it could have started from defective wiring or smoker's carelessness. orphanage operated by any denomination, provided it can give assurances that the chil dren will grow up in a Chris tian atmosphere, with proper food, medical attention and schooling. More than 80 per cent of CCF's funds are contributed through an "adoption plan" which establishes a direct, personal link between the donor and the particular or phan he is sponsoring. Here's how it works: The sponsor who may be an individual, a couple or a group such as a church school class contributes $10 a month through CCF. This is the av erage cost, on a worldwide basis, of maintaining a child in a CCF - affiliated orphan age. ' ' The sponsor indicates the kind of child he prefers to "adopt" boy or girl, approxi mate age, and nationality. He soon receives from CCF a little packet introduc ing the adopted child. It con tains a photograph and a brief biography telling when and how the child came to a CCF orphanage, how he is getting along in school, what his interests are, what size clothing he wears. Sponsors are encouraged to write to their "adopted" chil dren and to send them pack ages if they wish. In turn, the sponsor gets letters from the child and progress reports from the orphanage. There is no obligation to continue an "adoption." A sponsor may discontinue pay ments after the first $10. But the drop-out rate is incredibly low. Last year it was less than four per cent.
