D.C. Mrs. Pearson went to Africa to visit Rosemary Cbnlan, who is froin Keno, and is now working with Catholic W^fare under the Most Reverend Kugene Butler, Bishop of iMombasa. Kenya. Miss ConIan is the sister of Tim Cbnlan, who Mrs. Pearson has been sponsoring at the seminary in the Pontifical Cbllege of Josephemmi in Ohio. Before departing for Africa, she spent a few days in Wasta- ington, I>.C., where Senaitor Catuion arranged a tour for her through the White House and the Capitol buildings. While in W'asMngton, Ifrs. Pearson visited with Father Paschal Kinsel. OFM, who was her tour dk^ector on the trip she made to the Holy Land m ISeS. He took her through the F^«Dcucan MOBastery where the Holy Land oi America is located. Isahelle stated that it was just what the name imfdied— an exact replica of all the shrines found in the Holy Land. She said, "I feK that I was back there again, ev«-y4hiB|g is identical even to their location. Many of the holy shrines are under ground and that is how they were at the monastery." She went on to state that sev«ral other shrines are duplicated, including the grotto of Lourdes and even the oatacombs. The highlight of her visit in Washington was the tour she took throu^ the National Catholic Shrine. The trav^er started ttiat her first thought as she stepped inside the door ot the enormous cathedral and saw the Chism's Report To The People Of Henderson This week discussions were held between resimtatives off the City Manager, City Engineer, FHA, our engineers and this o'ffice concerning the most feasible plat for the first 40 acres ,as well as the entire 160 acre parceL "^ Ttie-ctty-has been requested to appoint members to the Architectural Board to review floor plans for distinctly different homes.

Las Vegans everywtiere are responding to the {dea frmn our men in Vietnam for soap. When the American troops first entered Vietnam a little over two years ago, many Vietnamese pteople had never seen a bar of soap. Children and people of all ages were dying daily from infection in even a tiny scratch. Today, through the Marine Corps Qvic Action Program, these people are healthier and have pride in themselves. The Civic Action Program also provides sewing kits, midwife kits, school kits, medical and hygienic supplies. And it was discovered recently tiiat tt>e item most in demand which produces the most immediate results is soap. Gradually, as a result of this program, the Vietnamese are learning to trust our men. In return they do the only things they can to show their gratitude. When they find the VC are massing outside of a village, they tell our men. who are then able to send for reinforcements. T^ey also destroy deadly "booby traps" set by the enemy.
