Reading is “turning Heaven and
Earth” in an effort to land that 62
million dollar air base and we sin-
cerely hope those Dutchmen suc-
ceed. An effort is also being made
to have it locate in Good Old Lan~
caster County and frankly, we hope
they fail.
At present we have two Govern-
nent Depots in our vicinity—Mari-
Jetta and Middletown—and that is
aplenty.
Ask any business man within a
working radius and he will tell you
that trying to compete with the U.
S. Government on labor is really
some problem. It can’t be done.
Just interview the management
of almost any industry thruout this
entire community and the expres-
sion will be the answer as to
ether or not we want a third
gernment project in our back
7ards.
Appended is part of an article
that appeared in a recent issue of a
A


a
We Don’t Want It,
|} They Can Have It’
It’s Too Big For Us
Lititz newspaper.
“A group of farmers and land-
owners from the Lititz-Manheim
area, supposed site of the new air
depot, will go to Washington and
voice an emphatic protest against
the Army’s plan to locate the mam-
moth defense installation in this
section”
There you have the objections of
the business man, the farmer and
the land owner, which should be
ample evidence that a mammoth
air base in Lancaster County is un-
welcome.
Of course, it could be a political
issue. If Truman succeeds in plant-
ing that air base on Lancaster Co.
soil, there may be a sharp reduction
in those overwhelming Republican
majorities the G. O. P. has been
enjoying for so many years.
As it appears today, the perman-
ent location of that air base is a-
bout as uncertain as the outcome of
the peace conference in Korea.

Mount Joy Should
‘Have a Community
Remembrance Com.
Is anyone in Mount Joy interested
in starting a Community Remem-
brance Committee? There are
number of persons from Mount Joy
now in the service and we, as a
community, should be remembering
them, especidlly with Christmas
coming.
Manheim is practically the only
community that has an active com-
mittee working. There, they've
made their committee a function
of the Manheim Defense Council.
Committee members come from ev-
ery organization of the community.
In its several months during which
it's been in operation, the commit-
tee has sent “remembrance” boxes
to 165 service men and women from
Manheim. Also, each package con-
tains a post card for the recipient
to return saying whether he
she has a Testament and if not,
whether they would like the com-
mittee to mail one. So far 10 Testa-
ments have been sent.
Plans of the remembrance group
are already looking ahead to Christ-
mas; when it plans to send pack-
ages to those listed on the commit~
tee’s complete card-index file. In
addition, they like to remember all
birthdays next year with gifts.
To help" finance this big project,
the committee is staging a carnival
September 7 and 8. So far, organi«
zations and citizens have pledged
support. Citizens of the town have
given cash.
The committee in Manheim hopes
that they may be an example for
other communities within the coun-
ty. Some folks would like to start
a committee in Mount Joy if peo-
ple think it would be a good idea
and if they would volunteer to help.
If anyone is interested, please get
in touch with Mrs. Vera Albert,
North Barbara street, Mount Joy.
