!alem Receives
lo Information
iboutRefugees
By Phyllis Sherman
; Salem’s work this year with the
|Vorld University Service, to pro
vide for the education of twelve
refugee students from various lo-
|alities around the world, has ex
perienced an irritating set back.
To date we have received no re
cord from WUS that our check
sent last year for the educational
^penses of the refugees was re
ceived. Nor has there been any
confirmation of the names and ad
dresses of the twelve students to
be supported this year.
|Due to this delay in the financial
confirmation from last year, the
refugee committee has hesitated to
initiate more money-raising pro
jects for the classes until the mat
ter has been cleared up. When
fipances are straight and we have
received the names and addresses
of our students, the refugee com
mittee hopes for the active support
of all Salemites in both raising
funds and getting to know the
twelve students.
