This is a particularly good time to #d it. We should do all we can to makeâ€" Highland Park a better place to live in for our returning veterans. The imminent subdivisâ€" ion of the Rosenwald estate makes it essential that we act now to save this highly desirable stretch of our beautiful lake shore for the benefit of all our citizens. And the timely retirement of our previous bonded indebtedness"makes it possible for us to do all these things, without increasing our present taxes. Be sure to voté for both propositions next Wednesday." Added Improvementsâ€" Included in the proposal is the construction of asphalt tennis courts in Sunset Woods park and West ~Longview park, to provide early spring and wet weather playâ€" ing facilities. Other improvements will be ‘the replacement of the present inadequate watering sysâ€" tem of the municipally owned Sunâ€" set Valley golf course, which will save many dollars in labor for waâ€" tering; the construction of a new shelter house and the installation of additional lighting and backâ€" stops at Lincoln park; and the conâ€" struction of a needed building to hngnf and repair park equipmenet.

But it was a hard mealâ€"to eatâ€"with the realization in mind that outside in the streets people were starving and homeless while â€" their foodstuffs moved ceaselessly through the streets in an Easterly direction! What Of Tomorrow? After two days of walking thru rubble and crawling thru ruins one still has a feeling that the Poles will rebuild Warsaw. They are a determined, _ dogged, people. Out of the war has come a new song for Poland. It is called "Warâ€" saw" and:when it is sung or played people stop their eating or workâ€" ing and tears moisten their eyes. "I know that you are not the Ambassador Lane of our Ameriâ€" can Embassy and his staff have been here over two weeks. They have thus far bought everything on credit as they ‘refuse to buy exchange on the black market and theysan afford to live here on no other .Basis. . Our dinner at the Polonia hotel the first night as the guests of the Ambassador cost something over 800 zlotys per plate â€" at the diplomatic rate he is expected to pay, this would run well over $70 per plate. same; € That dark bloodâ€"has washed all your streets; I‘m proud that you know ~no. shame Though now you have caused me ~_ o weep. * 4 And now though you‘reâ€"low in the mud . I‘ll build with my own sweat and blood! * So Warsaw shall rise once more . to her might; I swear on my heartâ€" and my life!" There is real hope and promise for ‘a people who jook up from dark cellars to sing out a challenge like that! (Continued from page 1) Noteworthy was her cooperation with the Highland Park hospital, the American Red Cross, the Highâ€" Warsaw is an uncertain, quiverâ€" ing ‘city both architecturally and politically. _ In the week precedâ€" ing and including our visit, over 100 people were killed in‘ the streets or in buildings by tumbâ€" ling masonry. ‘ It is estimated that 50,000 human bodies are still covâ€" ered by debris within the.city limâ€" its. When winter comes the heavy snow ‘will cause many more deciâ€" mated buildings to collapse.~By winter‘s end, also, Poland‘s politiâ€" cal picture should be greatly clariâ€" fied. ‘Thus far, there is little eviâ€" dence of free speech or free press, freedom of action and freedom of choice. The Polish zloty which is its basic currency unit is being printed in Moscow. "It has no esâ€" tablished exchange rate. Its "ofâ€" ficial" exchange rate which is disâ€" regarded entirely was 5.3 zlotys for a dollar. _ The "diplomatic‘ rate is 11% zlotys for a dollar. On the black market a dollar will buy from 150 to 350 zlotys; during our stay hereswe were advised . the black market rate is currently 260 zlotys to a dollar. R A City of Contrastk (Continued from page 1) through its streets until in 1945 it was finally liberated from occuâ€" pation and from further destrucâ€" tion. Today little remains but the site and the ‘spirit of Warsaw which, together, are sure to proâ€" duce a rebuilt city in a reconstrucâ€" ted Poland. What that "reconstructed Poâ€" land" will be isâ€" still too early to judge. . We have met President Bierut, Viceâ€"President Szwalbe, and practically all the other govâ€" ernment leaders. We have visited with citizens of all shades of opinâ€" ion, seen Russian and Polish solâ€" diers in the streets by day and heard the rattle of gun fire at night. Thousands of cattle and horses, hundreds of wagon loads of farm equipment and loot from citâ€" ies, pass through Warsaw from west to east every day as the Rusâ€" sian army straggles home in horseâ€" drawn wagons. There is much argâ€" ument but little real doubt as to where the supplies have come from and as to whither they are bound!

T HE PRESS m m Red Cross Workers â€"â€" There is,.according to the Amâ€" erican Red Cross, a greater need for camp and hospital workers now than there was, during the war. These volunteer workers help to provide recreation for the service men in military hospitals, in addiâ€" tion to arranging for necéessary equipment to be provided in the hospitals.
