Project Will Care for Ten British Children Under 'Hostel' Plan

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

University employees began a campaign among themselves today to raise a sum of $5,000 or more to provide for a group of about ten English children to be quartered together as a group in a country house, under the supervision of an English mother and teacher.

So far as is known the employees' plan is the first such group "hostel" project to be put into operation for the refugee children in the United States.

The children are to be drawn from families in the lower income levels living in the British danger zones. First announcement of the hostel plan was sent out today to the 3,000 non-faculty employees by the employee committee.
