CREATER LAY FAGLITE URGED Women’s City Club Goes on Record in Favor of Pro- posed Amendments. Indorsement was given by the ‘Women’s City Club last night to the amendments to the Public Library act designed to increase the library facili- tles in Washington as proposed in the printed report of the board of Public Library trustees for 1924, in resolutions presented by Mrs. L. B. Swarmstedt and adopted. Mrs. Swarmstedt stated that inas- much as approval of the changes must be given by the District Com- missloners, the latter in the past hav- ing ‘“been only luke-warm” in senti- ment toward any effort to increase facllitles, she was glad to note that, according to press reports, Commis- sioner Fenning stated he would sup- port additional library accommoda- tions and equipment here. Praise was heaped upon the library staff {n Washington and also the school for library operatives. It is only through devotion to library work that the staff remains in service here, Mrs. Swarmstedt said, declaring that if salaries were considered they would be better off in other citles. Tells of Community Chest. Mabel Boardman addressed the * meeting on Washington’s proposed community chest. This method of financing the ci needs for charity, e said, should find a ready response from business men, public officials and those in private life, who have be come bored by the multiplicity of drives of every sort. The speaker out- lined plans for the community chest, citing the one tn operation in Cleve- land. Ohio, to point out advantages and defects. The American Red Cross, the Y. M. C. A and several other organizations, she said, would not be included in the organizations affiliat- ing in the movement because of their national and International aspects. Nefther would drives for endowment or building funds be considered in the chest movement Representatives of all charitable or- ganizations would constitute the board he operation, the needs of p for the y and the in- from part pay institutions would all be compiled and considered and a budget made up and the citi- ed to make one do- rethod, she said, will pre- pping and duplication would be no more sell- ing of tickets for charity balls and din- ners, and the expense of operation, it was pointed out, through central governing body. would be minimized ation within the one Drawbacks in Plan. There is danger in the community cliest operation, Miss Boardman said, irr_that where now “we give of our. selyes and hearts as well as our purves, there is the possibility that the giving of the purse will superseds all _ather consideration: Though doubting the practicability of the com. munity chest idea, it is a step in the right ‘dixection and should be given a fair trial and improved as circum- stances raquire, she said Upon mogion, the president of the club was dNected to appoint a com. mittee to investigate the proposal for & community chest and report to the next regular meeting of the club, when appropriute action would be IFLASHESOFUFEI By the Associated Press.
