SMITH IS DENIED OATH OF OFFICE 13 Republicans, One Farmer- ._ Labor Join 37 Democrats to Defeat Resolution Figure Determined by Com- mittee and Represents Oper- ating Expenses of 15 Organ- izations Which Participate— Solicitors Will Meet Tonight The quota for the Bismarck Com- munity Chest campaign has been set at $14,659.70. This figure represents the oper- ating expenses of 15 organizations thet participate in the Community Chest, and was determined after a special committee had examined the budgets, of the 15 different welfare groups during the past three years. It is the minimum amount of money upon which the charity work can be maintained successfully dur- ing the ensuing year. “Why,” asked one Bismarck citi- | zen today, “was the appeal last spring for $5,000 while now almost $15,000 is sought?” When the Community Chest staged its first drive last spring, it asked for $5,000 for the main- tenance of seven welfare groups for six months. These groups were the Salvation Army, Boy Scouts, Juvenile’ band, Campfize Girls, Society for the Friendless, Boys’ Welfare and the munity Fund. Other Organizations Added Since then the following organi- zations have been added—Women’s Community Council, North Dakota Children’s Home, Lutheran Chil- dren’s Home Finding society, Com- munity Christmas, Red Cross, Washington, Dec. 7. — (AP) — By decisive majorities, the senate today fused the oath of office to Frank L.
