IS AT ROTARY "Our Foreign Policy" was the subject of an informative and interesting address which was delivered at the weekly meeting of the Delphos Kotnry club at Nu- Maude's restaurant Wednesday by Rev. John Wilcox, pastor of th First Presbyterian church. Historically, our government and foreign policy have been based on the laws of God and moral principles. Yet, too often, we have not carried out in our foreign relations the, principles which we preach. This, in many instances, has caused people in other parts of the world to lose faith in us.

The United Nations is formed basically on moral principle but here, too these principles are often sacrificed for the sake of expediency. The speaker stressed the need of high moral in our national affairs and in our re- lationa throughout the world. Re said that we have had mainly a negative approach and that ft positive morality in. all phases of our national life is necessary. He urged that we, a individuals, use our influence with our government leaders to promote these high standards.

The address was much appreciated by all present. The speaker was introduced by Oliver Lundgren, who was in charge of the program for the day. Louis Scherger, president of club, wa in charge of the meeting. Club singing was led by Robert Porter. Guests included Donald Cowan and Ted Giessler, of Van Wert, and two St.

John's High seniors, Jerry Hoffman and Ralph Holdgreve. NEW ARRIVALS Mr. and Mrs. Dennis Stemen, Gomer, a girl born Tuesday, December 13, I960, in St. Rita's Hospital in Lima.

The John Paulding post of the Veterans of Foreign War, and the Paulding County Volunteer Fire Association have each pledged $100, and the Grizly Manufacturing Company has pledged $200. In addition, the pledges from Paulding business men and citizens being taken by Kenny Bryan of Paulding has increased $600 in the last week. Meanwhile, after a month-long investigation, authorities admit that no new information has been turned up in the sex-slaying of the Paulding High School freshman. "We know only two thingg for sure.

It was a man and he drove an automobile," Paulding County Sheriff John Keeler said. "We also know 30 men who did- not do it," Keeler added, referring to the numerou persons questioned during the lengthy investigation. The girl's body wa, found Nov. 14 in a woods along County Road 176. She had been assaulted and shot in the throat.

A man had pulled her into a car while she walked along a in the community of 2,500 with 'her 5-year-old sister. The sister fled to a nearby house. Commented the sheriff: "This fellow was fantastically lucky. He grabbed the girl on a well-lighted street within the view of seven houses at 7:30 in the evening, but nobody saw him except the little girl. "I almost don't believe it." The little girl could describe the assailant only as "a big man in a big car." The lack of information may result from the nature of the incident, Keeler said, adding: "This is a nasty case people don't want to be connected with it.

You would be surprised how we have to dig for information from people who should have come and told u. what they knew." There's also the problem of misinformation. "A mystery of this type gives an opportunity for vicious individuals to get even with anybody they don't like by turning him in as a suspect," the sheriff said. ARE DROPPED IN AREA COURT Two criminal cases have been dismissed in Van Wert Municipal Court upon withdrawal of charges by complainants. One was a charge of driving an auto without the owner's consent.

The charge had been, filed by Ernest Kimmel, Van Wert, against Robert J. Bertke, Van Wert. Kimmel -had charged that he "loaned" hi auto to Bertke for use overnight, but it had not been returned. Bertke was arrested in Fort Wayne and returned here to face the charge, to which he pleaded not guilty when arraigned. A charge of forgery against Phillip Boroff of Van Wert has been dismissed on motion by Sheriff Wilmer L.

Clay. Th charge was filed by Clay when Boroff issued a. check for $52.30 on the Baker Cab Company. Boroff had forged checks on other local merchants but -had been charged with only one offense. The defendant's father had covered all the bad checks.

This reportedly wa the reason for the sheriff filing his motion of dismissal. Oih'er Court Celiua Municipal Harrington On Bench The case of the State of Ohio against Everett Lee Stose, rural Celina. charged by Celina city police with driving left of center i being heard in Celina Municipal Court with Judge Robert L.
