* COMMUNITY CHEST CHARMAN SOUGHT - Procuring of Campaign Head Offers Problem—Promi- nent Citizen in Mind. Procuring the proper man to head the Community Chest campaign for funds here, to begin probably in Jan- uary. is the principal problem confront- ing the chest at the present time, Fred- eric A. Delano, president of the chest, announced in a statement today The campaign chairmanship, he added, “is perhaps the greatest oppor- tunity for community leadership which our city affords.” Prominent Citizen in Mind. § _ Those in charge of the chest and its functioning have a prominent citizen in mind for the position, it is pointed out, and would fecl well satisfled if he wonld accept the position. Meanwhile stress is laid on the importance of ar- rangements for the campaign for funds of more than $1.000.000 to begin at once. This sum will be necessary, it 15 stated, in order that the current nd needs of the various wel- nizations which are members st may be taken care of dur- ing next year. Mr. Delano said: “Over 3,000 volunteer workers will probably be enrolled in the campaign, ‘which will attempt to cover every man, woman and child in the District of Co- lumbia and its adjacent suburban terri- tory thought able to give. The cam- paign organization, as at present planned, will include about 2,500 team workers, 250 captains, 35 divisional ¢chairmen, 9 unit chairmen and 1 cam- aign chairman. The secretaries will e borrowed, in the main, from the ., member agencies of the Community | ¢ Chest and from the civic organizations of Washington to handle the detail work of the various units and divisions. Such assienment of responsibility will be made that there will be a clean-cut plece of work for each person in the organization to do, and no task too heavy for any one to carry out effective- ly without too great a burden upon his time or energy. | “The key person to the situation at the present time is the campaign chair- man. We are looking for some cne ‘who combines the qualities of executive ability, prestige in the community, ? ability to lead others while delegating | responsibility and possessing such good will in the community that all citizens | invited to serve in the campaign will be delighted to be associated with him. The executive committee hopes to be able to announce the appointment of this all-important position in the next day or so. Large Fund Expected. “Not only will the campaign organi- chairman be expected to secure the largest sum of money ever raised at one time in Washington for local wel- fare needs and for the largest number of agencies which have ever poined their appeals in this community for any purpose whatsoever, but also the campaign organization is expected to obtain the largest number of contribu- tors for any peacetime endcavor in this district. “The prospect list of at least 60,000 persons known to be able to give sums from $5 up to $100,000 is now being-pre- pared by a force of clerks in the Com- munity Chest office at 1418 I street. We believe that the campaign as here outlined under the leadership of the kind of man for whom we are now looking will produce at least 100,000 contributcrs of sums from $1 up, and | perhaps considerably more. “This one campaign will, of course, | replace the former scparate appeals of | approximately 50 agencies which make up the Community Chest. with a great saving in the cast of solicitation, the time of solicitors and the good will of the contributors, who can do their giving to 50 organizations at one time and pay in installments at their con- venlence during the year.” il o Hamilton, Va., Woman Dies.

A gear pump in the bottom of the oil pan raises the oil to the valve chamber reservoir. From here it flows on to the main crank- shaft bearings and the front cam- . shaft bearing. Overflow oil drops into the oil pan tray and runs into troughs through which the connecting rods pass. As the ends of these rods strike the oil they scoop up a supply for the conmecting rod bearing. At the same time they set up a fine spray that lubricates the pistons and other moving parts. From the tray the oil runs into the bottom of the pan, and is again drawn up through a fine mesh screen and pumped to the valve chamber. This system is so effective that the five-quart contents of the oil pan pass through the pump twice in every mile when you are traveling at only 30 miles an hour. Yet there is only one mov- able part—the oil pump. As a matter of fact, the lubrication system for the new Ford is so simple in design and so carefully made that it requires practically no service attention. There is just one thing for you to do, but it is a very important thing . . . watch the oil! Change the oil every 500 miles and be sure the indicator rod never reg- isters below low (L). If the oil level is allowed to fall below low, the supply be- comes insufficient to oil all parts as they should be oiled. To insure best performance it is also advisable to have the chas- sis of your car lubricated every 500 miles. This has been made easy through the use of the high pressure grease gun system. Proper oiling and greasing mean so much to the life of your car that they should not be neg- lected or carelessly done. See your Ford dealer regularly. He is especially well-fitted to lu- bricate the new Model A car and he will do a good, thorough job at a fair price. FORD MOTOR COMPANY Authorized Ford Dealers Bartram Motors Co. 633 Mass. Ave. N.W.
