CHEST DOLLARS FOR DEFINITE NEED Budget Committee Studies Requirements; Increased De- mand on Organization Seen. I i Every dollar sought in the 1831 Com- munity Chest campaign, which will be held the latter part of January, will | have been assigned to meet a very defl- | nite and existing need, according to | Corcoran Thom, chairman of the Chest Budget Committee. The budgets of the 75 organizations which make up the Community Chest are already being most carefully studied by three sub- committees, into which the Budget Comurittee is divided, and will be stud- jed By the whole committee before its task ie finished in December. Dr. Charles P. Neill is chairman of the Subcommittee on Character-Build- ing Institutions, Simon Lyon of the Subcommittee on Health and Mrs. John Jay O'Connor of the Subcommittee on Dependency Agencies. The first two are now holding one meeting each week, while Mrs. O'Connor's commit- | tes, because of the larger number of organizations in this group, is meeting twice each week. Miss Blanche Re- nard, long experienced in budget work in St. Louis, has volunteered her serv- ices for the Washington campaign. She is acting as secretary of the Bud- get Committee and sitting in an ad- \:zory capacity at the subcommittee meetings. See Increased Demands. That there will be greatly increased | demands upon Chest organizations this | Winter, particularly those doing family | welfare work, is regarded as a fore- gone conclusion by the members of the committee. Lack of work, exhaustion | of credit and resources, lowered family | morale, need for food and fuel, due to the approach of cold weather, and other factors enter into this situation. Because of this every budget is care- fully scrutinized and every organiza- tion is required to justify its request for money by a definite statement as| to nepds that will be met. The agen-| cles are co-operating by asking only for the most necessary amounts. “Under the modern budget system.” says Chairman Thom, “the Community Chest asks the District of Columbia for an amount of money which in its opinion is the least that is needed.to accomplish the amount of relief or pre- ventive work which a committee of able m:n and women hold necessary to the proper handling of human wel- fare in our city. “Relief work in a season of unem- ployment like that confronting us will be ‘an unusually important feature of Chest service this Wintcr. Health conditions, too, become invoived in & period of need end our nine hospitals must have funds to meet the cost of helping all free and part-pay pa- tients. And let us nct forget that at times like this the character-building agencies must have our earnest sup- port in order to maintain the general morale and develop the best type of citizen. All these factors are carefully considered in the study of each indi- vidual budget and in the preparation of llhe Community Chest budget as & whele.” Executives Survey Budget. Every individual budget goes through four proce:ses. Made up by the or- ganization executive, it is then sub- mitted to the board of that orgariza- tion, which carefully considers every nen; with a view to determining its need. The budget then comes to the Chest budget staff members, who indicate any item that may need explanation. The budget is then submitted to the proper | subcommittee of the Budget Commit- | tee. Organization representatives ap- pear in person before these subcommit- tees to explain their needs and the reasons for the various items in the budget. The recommendation of the subcommittee then goes to the entire Budget Committee for consideration. Through the use of these four proc- esses, it is pointed out, every budget must be justified by showing that it meets an actual existing need. When the Community Chest goes before the| public at the end of January asking| for funds to provide for all these| budgets, it will do so with the full as- surance that every dollar asked is nec- essary to meet a specific need. Member organizations, if not_satis- fied with these proposals of the Budget | Committee, may ask for rehearings and | further discussion, or may appeal to| the Executive Committee and to the Board of Trustees.
