The after- noon session was devoted mainly to the annual district school meet- ing and how such meetings should be conducted. Demonstrations of in poorly conducted meeting as well as that of a well conducted one wore effective and did more to enlighten the listeners than would have been accomplished by hours of lecturing, The night session opened with the showing of films after which the assembly was divided into groups for the dis- cuslon of different problems. Arguments waxed strong and severe before the close as all pres- ent were not satisfied that all is well with our educational system. Those meetings are it good thing and the only fault appears to he that they do not receive the ad- vance publicity that their useful-

Aid Po-or

By Alan Horny Canadian Press Staff Writer LONDON. (GP)-L'Abbe Pier.-e. the man who stirred a country's conscience. came to London today and told of plans to push his frontiers of

The Franciscan Friar. who now lends money to the French govern- ment from the proceeds of his rag- collecting drives. told a. press con- ference he hopes his first group of clilffoniera-rag-pickers will go out to North Africa in June.

”Our work is universal. and in- finite,' he said.

l.'Abbe Pierre. real name Henri Groues, is a small man with burn- ing dark 0) es. a full black beard and a. considerable capacity for indignation. He became a national figure overnight in France during the cold spell of January -and Feb- ruary when his appeals for the homeless sent a wave of emotion through the country.

"I am the flea whose bite starts the blood circulating.” the iris: picclaimed-and became the new iiatlonal saint of France, oflcn compared with St Vindent de Pau', who worked for the poor.

Spoilimt on Suffering

At press conference, L'Ablio Pie.rre7looking tired and mucli older than his 42 years-pledged that his work will go on, He said he believes it -is his duty to "put. a spotlight. on suffering," to act as the link between the suffercrsl and those who know that suffer- ing exists but prefer. consciously; or unconsciously, to try to sup-' press or stifle it.

Speaking in French, he added that the problems of modern su- cieiies can be solved only "by groups of men prepared to shat":- the suffering and so bring it to light."

Asked to differentiate between his own work and that of the French worker priests whose aci- lvities were recently restricted by the Roman Catholic church. LiAbbe Pierre said one big difference is that the worker priests are or were wage earners. whereas his group is unsalaxied. In reply to another question. he said he has received a number of letters from would-be supporters in Canada. including promises of money.

The friar comes from a wealthy family in Lyons He gave up the fimlly money to enter the Capil- chin order and during the Second World War became a hero of the resistance, running a Vicarage in Grenoble which was a centre for false identity cards. He was l,ll'lC8 captured and twice escaped.

Aid After Broadcast

The work of the frlar and his THE-pickers, who now make about 85.600 in month from salvage and

5911102 art objects at the famous flea. market in Paris, was little known until the cold wave this

winter. One night the fi-far went on the air to describe how the body of a woman clutching an eviction order in her hand had been found in the street in the Latin quprtpr iloonmpromlses of help were flood.

L'Abbe Pierre lives in Neuillv- Pltllmnoe. a slum section of the eastern fringes of Paris, and shares his quarters with homeless families. TCIIY. rabbit huiclies and CRl'1lVfll1S have been used to shelter people, -It is estimated the friai"a growing organization has collected some 5130-090 in Dublic contributions. some of which is being used to build houses and some of which will bc loaned to the government for the same purpose.
