Ask Com Cfil For Needy Abroad Illinois has been asked to help provide seven carf of corn oil now urgently needed in Europe and Asia by the Protestant church agencies which have accepted responsibility for aiding refugees and other helpless victims of war and famine. The request wa# received by Rev. Ralph Masdhmeier, director of the Illinois Christian Rural Overseas Program (CROP), which is conducting its annual campaign for farm commodities and other gifts for overseas relief, which started on CROP Sunday, Nov. 9. "Fatii are most needed to supplement^ starchy diets and build sound health and strength," Dr. Wayland Zwayer, associate director of Church World Service, stated in the request. "Corn oil, pi-oduced from the corn contributed by the people of Illinois, will greatly increase the nutritional value pf cereals and other products which other areas are giving," he said. Five of the cars of corn oil are needed in Asia. Distribution will bey made in India, Korea, Pakistan and Arab Palestine through missionary institutions and the national Councils of Churches. The World Council of Churches will supervise the use of two carloads in Europe, among the "hard core" refugees for which it is now solely responsible and the politidkl escapees from Eastern Europe who are crossing the Iron Curtain CLARENCE'S SHOP "CHRISTMAS GIFTS" Toy Barnyards -- Table and Chair Seta -- Toy Chest* Doll Beds and Swings -- KKciten Cabinets, etc. Chest of Drawers, Cabinets, Shadow Boxes, Shelving, etc. MADE TO ORDER Also Have Full Line of -- Lawn Furniture -- Bird Houses -- Picnic Tables -- Swings, eke. ^ - Cement Cess Pool Covers, Chimney Caps, etc. CLARENCE J.

Contributed corn will be assembled into carloads In communities and counties,., Mr. Maschmeler explained, and shipped to a manufacturer of corn oil. CROP has been able to negotiate favorable contracts with certain processers, he said, which make it possible to secure the corn oil mofe economically than by outright purchase. Where shipping distance is too great, credits may be transferred, in some cases, from a terminal or other market point. This need overseas is immed"- iaf^," Mr. ifkSchmeier said, "and with;, the bumper corn crop in Illinois I am sure we will do much more than our part in providing not only this shipment but others that will be needed in the next few months. We are counting on fast work by our county committees so that no one will suffer while waiting on us to complete our collections." The bulk of CROP contributions are channeled through ChurcJh World Service to their overseas destinations but CROP accepts gifts for any voluntary agency designated by the donors. Thirty-five counties are expected to participate in CROP*in Illinois: this year. Thirty of these are stressing corn as their major commodity contribution.
