RESIDENT URGES - SUPPORT OF CHEST wsks Every District Citizen to | Give Evidence of Devotion to Charity.

Text of President’'s Speech. ‘The President spoke in full as follows: “The Community Chests in our cities ave demonstrated their value and im- rtance for effective conduct in ad- jministratoin of the multitude of chari- gies necessary within our great munici- ities. They represent our greatest | dvance in the administration of char- | unate residents. They guarantee integ- ¥ity and efficient conduct of charitable Bdministration. They assure skill in sdministration, freedom from prejudice; they give support to charities of vital Mecessity, yet of less emotional appeal; #hey free the administrators of our icharitable institutions from anxiety and the diversion of their time from pri- dmary duties to the constant collection ©f funds. They give assurance of con- tinuity; A dents of a community from con- tant supplicat; and uncertainty. “The Cor: Chest stands for the gense of charity of the city. And char- 4ty is the obligation of the strong to 4he weak: it is the practice of a spirit- wal impulse; it is the restraint of ishness; it is the expression of the fidence of mankind. Works of char- arc the tests of spiritual develop- of men and women and com- munities. At this time when we at- tach to much importance to material and_economic success, we place great emphasis on the idea of greater com- dort, the possession of riches, and we %00 often overlook the necessity for #stimulated spiritual development. The Community Chest has come to stand dor this spiritual development of a com- snunity. Speaks as District Citizven. ! “I should like to speak as a citizen | ©f the District. The Capital City of he Nation should lead both in the evi- dence of acceptance of its obligations to the less fortunate and in devotion to sflmtunl development. I suggest that the time has arrived in this appeal wwhen every citizen in the District should give some evidence of his devo- gion to charitable purpose, no matter ‘how small, and that those who have already given should review their gifts %0 be sure they have been extended to #he utmost they can afford.” Figuring from the close of yesterday's ecting. when the shortage was more han $676,000, Chest officials pointed out fhat to care for the present shortage fmeans the rasing of $12,532 an hour, $208 a minute or $3.46 a second. For dhe first time since the campaign’ opened, the impossibility of this task ‘was admitted unless the unexpected ‘happens. ‘The President and Mrs. Hoover have | Aisplaved a marked interest in the “Washington Community Chest. They «contributed by wire last year during their absence from the city and Mr. Moover presented his gift in person this Jear to Mr. Noyes. ‘The White House meeting was called dor the purpose of forming those Attending into an advisory commit- tee the special gifts group in prder to clean up the campaign mfter tomorrow night. While Chest jofficials predicted a deficit of $150,- W00 or more, the amount is more @than likely far to exceed this sum un- ‘Jess the two final reports of the cam- paign show amazing results. One explanation of the crisis is the Mact that only 21,000 contributors have been listed this year as compared to the 65,000 who gave to the Chest last jyear.

COMMUNITY FUND | BOON TO CHILDREN Provides Treatment for| Structural Weakness to Family of Five. Life for Mr. and Mrs, Albert Ludke is just one pair of shoes after another. With seven children ranging in ages from 13 months to 10 years almost any family would find it something of a task to keep them shod, but five of the little Ludkes urther compticate. the shoeing problem because their shoes must be constructed under the expert supervision of an orthopedic shoemaker. Several years ago the Instructive Visiting Nurse who was calling on one of the Ludke children, observed that the two_older ones had serfously flat feet. Under guidance of the visiting nurse the children were started to the orthopedic clinic at Children's Hospital. They have since that time been regular at- tendants at the clinic, and as each of the other children has become old enough for structual weakness to be observed, they too, have been sent to the clinic. All the little feet and legs of this family show structural weakness which in time, it is explained, would develop into serious deformity unless they had proper care. The Instructive Visiting Nurses and the Children’s Hos- pital are co-operating to the end that all the little Ludkes may grow to be strong, straight-limbed, fleet-footed youngsters. | Both of these Community Chest agencies also have a hand in the care and treatment of another of the Ludke —Star Staff Photo. | children. Frank, aged 5, was struck by fore deciding whether the general cam- paign should be continued until the end of the week. With the return of good weather there is still hope that a sufficient amount will be raised to leave the remainder of the job entirely to the special group formed at the White House meeting. But the outlook of raising even $500,000 by to- morrow night was rather discouraging in view of the $72535.88 which rep- resented the united efforts of 4,500 canvassers yesterday, a decrease of about $3.000 from the day before, New Pledges Reported.

BY WALLACE HATCH, Acting Secretary, Washington Tuberculosis ‘Association. “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” is especially applicable to the campaign against tuberculosis. During the past year Congress, on the urgent recommendation of the Wash- ington Tuberculosis Association, has taken particular note of the tubercular children of the District of Columbia by authorizing the erection of a 'l\lbercu-‘ losis Sanatorium for Children of the | District of Columbia. The money for the erection of this institution has not to be ready as soon as all preliminary plans have been completed. Every month the directors of this as- sociation (composed of the best tech- | nical and non-technical leaders in this | field) check up the day-by-day services of its field staff. Every day the field workers are visiting clinics, hospitals and homes where tubercular patien:s are to be found for the triple purpose of furnishing immediate aid to the sick; well balanced, common sense instruc- tion to the well in daily contact with these patients, and ferreting out new, or suspicious cases to check up for the | early discovery of the disease. | Ideally, tuberculosis may be fully con- trolled and eventually fully stamped out when every center or focus of infec- tion is known and controlled. A com- munity approaches this ideal to the ex- tent that co-operation in the campaign extends to every family affected. For practical purposes today’s campaign against this microscopic enemy, which killed last year 564 persons in our city and more or less permanently disquali- fled several times this number, may be summarized as follows: Education of all people in each home where tuberculosis has been discovered. ‘This educational work is conducted as a definite part of the regular visits to these homes by trained workers; ex- aminations and treatments in the city Health Department Special Tubercu- ITosis Clinic (in co-operation with the city Health Department) of children needing this attention and not receiv- ing the same from their family physi- clans; adult cases are handled directly by the city Health Department physi- a sled and suffered a broken leg.

FORCE VARE TO RUN, SCHALL URGES VOTERS Tells Pennsylvania Republican ‘Women “His Fight Is Your Fight.” By the Associated Press. PHILADELPHIA, February 5.—United States Senator Thomas D. Schall of Minnesota told the Republican women of Pennsylvania at a banquet last night that if they did not force Willlam S. Vare to remain in the race for the nomination to the Senate they were “not worth fighting for.” “I have no quarrel with Senator Jo- seph R. Grundy,” Senator Schall said. “I like his frankness and believe he has considerable ability. Nevertheless, you were the people struck at when Vare was rejected by the Senate. His fight is your fight. “I come from a ‘backward’ State, where we think and say what we please. I am a friend of Vare because I came to know him and understand him in the House of Representatives. He is honest, loyal, patriotic. He was reject- ed, not because he had broken any law, but because he spent too much money in the primary election. His opponents spent three times as much as he did and a beneficiary of that fund now sits in the Senate, “If the people of Pennsylvani: e not dumb, driven oxen, they will not stand for that sort of a deal. There ought to be a concentrated effort to make Vare run.” The capital of Greenland, Godthaab, has a population of 400 souls.

NEW YORK, February 5.—Creation of & new political party, to be known as the Liberal party, was proposed in an address here last night before the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment by Dr. Samuel Harden Church of Pittsburgh, president of the board of trustees of Carnegie Institute. The new party, he said, “would aim to extirpate all those organizations that are holding liberty in bondage, and it would disperse all those political groups at the churches which are endeavoring to enact their religions and moral tenets into laws of the land.” Dr. Church ecriticized both the Re- publican and Democratic parties. ‘Two_hundred old people at Ashby- de-la-Zouch, England, received a $2.50 note each by mail from an anonymous donor recently.

LONDON, February 5»—~§; Ronald Lindsay, the newly appoini British Ambassador to Washington, has given a public demonstration of his qualities of quick-wittedness and diplomatic tact. At a recent banquet, a foreign resi- dent in London made & speech. Prob- ably it was a good speech, but un- fortunately it was altogether inaudible to those not sitting near the speaker. And there was even some doubt a few yards from him as to the language in which it was being delivered—the ma- Jority vote finally deciding that it was French.

It was Sir Ronald Lindsay who saved the situation, Both from the fact that he was sit- ting next to the speaker and from his linguistic attalnments he was the one man in the room who was able to get some idea of what was being said. So, early in the discourse, he broke into the roceedings with a sonorous ‘“Hear, ear” that was immediately echoed by the remainder of the grateful audience, which, during the rest of the speech, followed Sir Ronald's lead with remark- able rapidity and unanimity.
