STAR, OPEN LETTER TO SANTA CLAUS ASKS SOME PERTINENT QUESTIONS nd night- | PUBLIC AID URGED FOR 14 FAMILIES Fifteenth Season of Oppor- tunities Opened by Charities Board Indorsements. Publication of its annual Christmas oportunity appeal on behalf of 14 se- lected families for whom continuing ald 1s needed the coming year was approved by the board of managers of the Assoclated Charitles at its monthly meeting yesterday afternoon. It was explained that this will be the fifteenth season in which the oppor-| tunities have been issued. The board took special cognizance of the recent action of the members of the Kiwanis Club in voting an appropriation suffi- cient to care for one of these 14 opportunities throughout 1925. A vote of thanks to the club was {adopted in acknowledgment of its generous actlon. The board reafirmed the policy as| defined a year ago in connection with its Christmas glving and the furnish- Ing of names and addresses of families | under its care. This policy recognizes the confidential relation existing be- tween the soclety and its clients and expresses the conviction of the board of managers that the indiscriminate giving of names and addresses of such clients would be a betrayal of the pledge of confidence under which the soclety does its work. The board ex- pressed its belief in a true Christmas spirit which is both generous and un- selfish; that those who have this world's goods should share with those who have not; that “the poor” should be treated with the same considera- tlon with which we treat our friends, of whatever station in life; that the pleasure and profit of the receiver should be the first consideration rather than that of the giver. Money Gifts Urged. To this end the board recommends that wherever possible in families under its re Christmas: gifts should be In the form of money to be given to the mother to make her own Christmas for her children, and that the children be given the opportunity to do the same thing for their mother or Invalld fathers where there are such. The board adopted & resolution to the effect that its deflnition of gen- eral policy In regard to furnishing | names and addresses and its confiden- relations to the families under care be given to the press. In accordance with its inv policy of crediting to its endowment funds, bequests and legacies, the | board voted to €0 apply a bequest of | $200 received by the summer outing ; committee of the Assoclated Charl- | tie since the la meeting of the board from the estate of 1?1’.!\?!‘“:':‘ J.
