NEW TRUSTEES " NAED BY CHEST _!reéident and Other Officers| "+ Submit Reports on Year’s Activities. {Election of a board of trustees and the promulgation of a platform featured the second annual meeting of the Com- munity Chest, held yesterday afternoon | 1 i the United States Chamber of Com- merce Building, Seventeenth and H streets. Frederic A. Delano, president of the chest, presided and presented his annual report covering the activities of The trustees, reported by Clarence A. Aspinwall, secretary, are in two groups, those elected by the 68,510 individual | L contributors to the chest to represent them on the board, and those selected by the organizations affiliated with the chest. In the latter group each organi- zation designated one board . member and one staff worker. Elwood Street, director. of the chest, announced that the possibility. that un- expected demands would be made of th~ chest growing out of the unemploy- ment situation would cause the. officers to make a careful follow-up of the last campaign by letter and personal call in order that contact might be had with all 1929 contributors who did not con- tribute this year. He also predicted an increased budget riext year. Report of President. President Delano, in his report, stressed the alleviation of suffering that had taken place during the past year as the result of the efforts of organizations affiliated with the chest. He declared that almost everything that the chest hoped to accomplish in its first year had been accomplished, with the exception of the complet> success of the 1930 campaign. Even -here, he stated, in spite of an unemployment that was much greater than had been anticipated, and in spite of the fluctuations of the stock market and other industrial crises, the chest had received pledges from 68,510 individual givers, or 3,510 more than were received in 1929, amounting t0 $1,606,000 or $120,000 more than was received in the first campaign. This, he said, was a remarkable record under the circumstances, although it could have been better. Mr. Delano stated that already 94 per cent of the amount pledged in 1929 had been collected and_ that collections still jn sight made it highly probable that the collections would reach 95 per cent, which is considered exceptionally good. He also pointed out that the cost of collection and distribution of the funds had been kept, as promised, at approxi- mately 6 per cent, and that had the services rendered member agencies by warious departments of the chest been considered at a fair value, the cost would have been under the estimated re of 6 per cent. n‘%he presl%eent paid tribute to the late Charles J. Bell and his successor on the | pudget committee, Corcoran Thom, for the excellent work performed by the committee under their leadership.
