Ghandi Concerned For Peace
NEW DELHI, (JTA) — Mrs. Indira Gluuidl, Prime Minuter of India, expressed serious concern over the prospects of achieving a Middle East settlement and warned that, with the passage of time the situation, instead of improving, - was getting more complicated and dif¬ ficulties in the way of a settlement are increasing. Mrs. Ghandi told visiting itewsmen, including a group of Egyptian journalists that India was working for a-sol- utlon of an enduring nature in the Middle,East, but that "some^ people did tUA want an agr6ement-'.]#iH^were adopted .postinres^ttiatwere "short-sightiBdi"! .   '        ,
MRS. GHANDI said, in reply to questions, that the Uiited States was unhappy with India's stand on the Middle East crisis but was not bringing any pressure to bear on India to change it. She called for "long-term views" in any solution, but stressed thatthe "aggressor should not be allowed tohold on to the fruits of aggres¬ sion."   ,
Observers here believe that India is disappobited with the failure of the Sec¬ urity CouncU to mal(e any progress toward a Middle East settlement.
Blodd Day Is Hov. 29
Sanford Fishman, presi- dsnt ot the Jewish Blood Donor CouncU, will be as¬ sisted in the Nor. 29 "B" Day campaign by the fol- .lowing majors: Leo Eichen- baum, Julius Krler, Jade Rubin, Bernard Friedman, and Mrs. Daniel Goldsmith.
Each major is responsible for a group o( organization volunteers, wiio will be con¬ tacting members of com¬ munity for donors for the semi-annual drive. The Red Cross Bloodnuibllfi will be at the Jewish Center firom 12:30 to 6:30 p.nu on Wed¬ nesday, Nov. 29, to collect blood;   a large turnout of donors is essential, as this , is the  last campaign for the year, and unless amaxi- mum number of pints ofblted are received,thepartici-| .pating arrangement which; the Jewish community has \ with the Red Cross may be in jeopardy.
BYTHlSarrangement,' evei^ member of the Jewish comriiunity, man, woman and child, is guaranteed free blood at any time or any where, for any purpose. When it is realized that in many communities, in tact, in most cities throughout the country, blood must be paid for in varying amounts nmning as Iiigh as $75.00 a pint, or must be replaced
en a two^ and sometioies three-for-one basis, the fortunate positian at ttie Co¬ lumbus Jewish' communis becomes apparent. However, . the Jeirish commuiiily has been asslgnedaquotaoCidnts for the year, and unless this •Biota Is kept fiUed, the en¬ tire program nuiy be dis-^ continued.
