Bettys Coffield, Bowie '"Attor-
ney, who has returned from
service in* the Army for four
years, was the speaker at Ro-
tary Luncheon • Wednesday and
discussed several things looking
to the Post War growth and ser-
vice of the community.
He urged careful thought to
city and county financial poli-
cies and to the responsibilites of
law observance and good citi-
zenship. He emphasized the
need of a wise youth policy and
declared, with reference to re-
turning veterans “There will be
no veteran problems unless we
make it so. What the veterans
want is a safe place to live and ~
a good place to earn a living,"
Coffield was introduced by
Orie Garrett, in charge of the
program for the day.
