Reporting cards may be received upon applica- tion to the chief clerk and are to be turned in to him. Chest officials today felt that the shortage in the budget was due largely to the handicap of four or five days of bad weather during the first week of the campaign. “We've worked under greater difficulties than any Chest ever had,” John Poole, campaign chairman declared last night at the meeting. t to a vote of the nearly 3,000 workers that attended the report meet- ing in the Mayflower Hotel, the ques- tion of extending the campaign to Monday night was accepted unani- mously. There was loud cheering as various divisional chairmen pledged themselves and their teams to stay with the .campaign until the end. There will be no report meeting today. Every one of the 4,500 volun- teers of the Chest army was too busy to allow for any interruption. The first report of the extended campaign will be made tomorrow afternoon at 1 o'clock in the Willard Hotel. Monday night's meeting will be held at the Mayflower. Director Street said today that Wash- ingtonians are beginning to realize now that increased pledges are essential if the full amount of the budget is to be raised at all. “Many persons held back this year, believing it unnecessagy to give larger amounts, but the failure to reach the budget goal last night proves how essential it was for every one to give more this year than last year.” Subscribers Increase Gifts. ‘This realization already was begin- ning to bear fruit today, for numerous increased subscriptions from previous givers were being reported at Chest headquarters. Success pledge cards, pink in the color of optimism, were being distributed by the hundreds. The special gifts committee which last night went over the top of its original quota, with a total of $875,754 raised to date, has other irons in the fire. Large givers will be urged to re- ged | view their pledges with the idea of ob- taining additional contributions. The last Wednes- day at the White House is aiding in this important part of the campaign. Using the only available figures ai hand in the absence of the official auditors’ report, Director Street an- nounced today that the $282,893.99 col- ,lected yesterday was divided between | the three mun;. as follows: Metro- 6.78; special gifts Group Solicitation first for the Metropolitan Unit, Chairman Merritt O.

Employes of Wash- ington banks and brokerage offices, it was announced, have contributed $13,- 252.75 toward the total. Noyes Committee Reaches Goal. Chairman Newbold Noyes of the Special Gifts Committee, who had a surprise up his sleeve, brought down the house when he anuounced that his committee " had “gone over the top” of its original quota and would stick to the last. He announced also the heartening fact that President Hoover, who had appealed last Wednesday in a radio ad- dress for the success of the Chest cam- paign, had doubled his own gift. The amount of the President’s contribu- tion was not announced. Mr. Noyes also announced that a non-resident of ‘Washington, Edward L. Doheny of Los Angeles, had telegraphed an offer of $5,000 toward Washington's Chest. The real surprise that Mr. Noyes had in store for the evening was a letter from Lieut. Col. U. 8. Grant, 3d, as chairman of the inaugural committee, announcing that the committee would be ready in a few weeks to turn over to the Chest “over $45000, of which $19,428.47 will be the proceeds of the charity ball.” The money will be turned over to the Chest, it was ex- plained, as soon as some claims are set- tled after the return to Washington of the committee treasurer, Robert V. Fleming. Mr. Noyes said that the special gifts committee would turn the inaugural contribution into the general Chest treusury. so as to cut down by that AUCTION SALES. FUTURE DAYS. THOS. J.

Not Down-Hearted. “Are we down-hearted?” some one shouted over the din last night after the deficit had been reported. “No!” came back a thundering reply. “Let’s at 'em again,” another voice shouted. In this typical American spirit which admits no defeat in a repulse, the Chest army rallied its forces to press on again and fnish the job. Of course, there was disappointment, from Chairman Poole down to the “buck privates” in the rear ranks, but the determination to carry on dispelled any doubt as to the eventual outcome by Monday night. There were cheers for'every executive {of the campaign and cheers also for the individual division leacders of the Metropolitan Unit as they reported on their day's work. The biggest ovation came when Division No. 8, of which James B. Evans, Mrs. Charles A. Gold- smith and W. C. Hanson are co-chair- men, reported $18,845.28 in new. con- tributions, a record for the unit during the campaign. Mrs. Sidney F. Taliaferro, wife of Commissioner Taliaferro and one of the leading workers of the whole campaign, also came in for special distinction. More Than Last Year. Frederic A. Delano, president of the Chest, declared that even if the cam- paign didn’t go over the top, “the inter- esting thing is that we actually raised $100,000 more than we did last year.” In expressing his uppreciation for the splendid spirit shown by the 4,500 volunteer workers, Mr. Delano said it was a tribute to the Chest that 18 addi- | Sche tional agencies sought affiliation with it this year. Brief addresses were made by the various executives connected with the campaign and each voiced confidence that the drive would result in a “vic- tory” dinner Monday evening. Col. Guy V. Henry, commanding officer of the troops in the District of Columbia, representing the Army, and Gen. Charles A. Summerall, chief of staff, declared that the Army is deeply interested in the Community Chest. “We hope next year,” he added, “to increase the donation made this year through the military carnival.” Commissioner Taliaferro, one of the honor guests, praised the work of the Chest, saying its influence has done more good for Washington than any- thing else. “I am sure if you don't go over the top tonight, success will attend your efforts later,” he said. Additional Speakers. Others who were called upon for talks and reports were Francis V. Thomson, director of the Boys’ Club and a vice chairman of the Group Solicitation Unit, who leaves Washington today for b as director of the Union ‘William F. Ham, ington Rallway & Electric Co., who said the employes of the car company and the Potomac Electric Power Co. had contributed $16,762 toward the Chest funds in 2,219 gifts. Joseph P. Tumulty, former secretary to the late President Woodrow Wilson, declared the Chest leaves a by-product in a movement that combines all races, creeds and interests. Reports were received from the fol- lowing Chest officers: C. Melvin Sharpe, chairman of the publicity committee; Corcoran Thom, chairman of the budget committee; Raymond Marx, chairman of the auditing committee; ‘William C. Sullivan, chairman of the speakers’ unit; Mrs. John Jay O'Connor, chairman of the information unit, and Austin 8. Imirie, chairman of the quota division committee, Mr. Sharpe thanked the newspapers, radio companies, theater managers and other agencies of publicity for their co- operation in the campaign. At the conclusion of these reports, Chairman Poole stated that the meeting would get down to the business of re- porting additional subscriptions and called upon the chairmen of the three soliciting units.

Much sleep, partially induced by medi- cines, and more food had put William Howard Taft in better condition today, but, nevertheless, his physicians did not relax their vigilance, Physicians, in an official bulletin at 11:30 a.m. today, said that he was con- tinuing to improve. It was added that Mr. Taft was taking more nourish- ment and was comfortable, The text of the bulletin follows: “The Chief Justice continues to im- Chest Gets $5,000 Gift From Doheny, Western Oil Man Chairman Noyes Explains How Bare Hint Brings Response From Coast. Edward L. Doheny, Los Angeles oil magnate, yesterday telegraphed a $5,000 gift to the Washington Community Chest. How the unexpected gift came about was, related at the report meeting last night by Newbold Noyes, chairman of the special gifts committee, . As he had done in many other cases, Mr. Noyes had wired Frank J. Hogan, Washington attorney, who is absent from | the city, for an additional gift to help make up the Chest deficit. Mr. Hogan was attorney for the California oil man during the Government oil trials and prove. He is taking more nourishment and is comfortable. Signed, Dr. Thomas A. Claytor and Dr. Francis R. Hagner.” Mr. Taft spoke for a few minutes this morning to his brother Horace, ;«'hn arrived at the house early in the ay. ‘The attending physiclans, although encouraged by the former Chief Jus- tice’s improvement, would not commut had previously given $5,000 toward the Chest fund. “I had a wonderful inspiration after finishing my wire to Mr. Hogan,” Noyes said, “s0 I added this posteript, ‘How about Mr. Doheny?’ " “Later a telegram came from Mr. ———— themselves as to whether this change in his condition would continue. They were confident, however, that for the present at least the difficulties en- countered over having him take nour- ishment were passed. Mrs. Taft, following the custom she has observed since returning with her husband from Asheville, N. C., took a brief drive during the morning. Almost simultaneous with the encour- aging word from the Taft bedside, the House today adopted a resolution ex- pressing its profound regret over the illness of the prominent American. A resolution along the same lines was adopted yesterday by the Senate. ‘The House resolution was offered by Representative Bankhead, Democrat, Alabama. It expressed “a hope and prayer” that the Chief Justice may soon be restored to health. Some difficulty had been experienced by the physicians in feeding the patient, but he took food more easily yesterday afternoon, and after long sleeps, en- couraged by the medicines administered, all bulletins that came from the sick room were favorable. During one of his periods of wakeful- ness, Mr. Taft recognized and spoke to two of the house servants. He asked for “Nellie,” as he calls Mrs. Taft, and she came into the room and chatted with him for some time. ‘This bulletin, as are all that come from the sick room, was delivered first to the White House, which transmitted it to the various news agencies.
