Malloy fund drive stalls over Ethiopia crisis
Minnesota couple Fred and Martha Malloy remain stranded in Ethiopia amid civil strife and shifted tourism. Local funds collected through churches total 2179.15 dollars with additional Minnesota and Florida contributions. A 10,000 dollar loan and plane tickets arranged by Sen. Hubert Humphrey were sent via the State Department, but no word on receipt. A California donor and Florida donor have been noted, while the flow of help wanes. The Malloys had run a tourism‑dependent business under Haile Selassie, now facing debt of 10,000 dollars from severance pay rules amid a civil war. Efforts to repatriate them continue with unclear progress.
