The Community Chest and the reno- vize campaign were both brought be- | fore the Assoclation of Oldest Inhabi- | tants last night by Herbert L. Willett jr., assistant director of the Community | Chest. . Pointing to the $1500,000 approved |by the Senate in the District of Co- lumbia appropriation bill yesterday for emergency relief in the city, the speaker | predicted that the trend in the future would be less of relief funds from pri- vate charity and more from public funds. . 7 ‘This city has been out of step with the rest of the country in the propor- tionate amount raised by private and by public funds, he explained. Prior to the increase of the emergency relief item in the Disirict appropriation bill by the Senate, this city had met 32 per cent of its relief funds by gift and only 68 per cent by tax, he said, while the average city throughout the country | chbtained more than 91 per cent of its | relief funds from taxes. 100,000 in D. C. on Charity. | ‘The tendency in the future, he pre- | dicted, would be to take a lesser per- centage out of the “gift pocket” and & larger percentage out of the “tax pocket” of the people, because the re- lief problem had grown to such stu- pendous proportions that gifts could no longer meet the situation. Recent reli- able figures show, for instance, he said, that the total amount of relief now furnished throughout the entire United States is only 5 per cent of the total of lost incomes. The Community Chest, he declared, was working toward the ‘“greatest econ- omy and the greatest efficiency” in the raising and disbursement of funds. Pointing to increased economies in the cost of raising money, the speaker said that before the Chest came to Wash- ington the ccst of raising a dollar was 15 cents, but this had been cut down to 8.5 cents in 1930; 8.4 cents in 1931, and 4.9 cents in 1932, Relief agencies, both public and pri- vate, he estimated, are caring for more than 100,000 people in the District of | Columbia at present. Mr. Willett presented & graphlic pic- ture to the Association of Oldest In- habitants of how the funds raised by |the Community Chest were used. By stereopticon pictures he presented viv- idly typical examples of the work be- | ing done by agencies supported by funds in the Chest. Among the various activities pictured | were those administering to family wel- fare, child care, care of the homeless | and transient, health services and char- acter building. Mr. Willett spoke elo- quently of the work being done by the numerous agencies whose activities were pictured on the screen, and at the conclusion of his fllustrated lecture, he was given & unanimous rising vote of thanks. Discusses Renovizing. Prior to his address on the Commu- nity Chest, Mr. Willett spoke briefly for the renovize campaign, sponsored by the Board of Trade and co-operating organizations. He outlined three rea- sons for spending money on the up- keep and improvement of property: protection of property value, cheaper prices for labor and material, and last- ly, th> unselfish purpose of aiding un- employed who are in trouble. At the request of the City Fire Fight- ers’ Association of Washington and by motion of Fred A. Emery, the associa- tion recommended that all vacancies in the Fire Department be filled by promo-~ tion from within the ranks, from mer. who had had at least five years af service. John Clagett Proctor, vice president, who presided, criticized gn HINGTO appointment in the PFire Department some time ago, when he sald District authorities went to New Jersey for their y appointee. “That’s not right,” he de- clared. Supporting the Community Center; Council, of which James G. Yaden is president, the association, by resolution, asked that there be no reduction in ap- propriations or expenditures for the fis- cal year 1934, and that the budget for 1935 should be “at least the customary $42,000 for community centers.” The association approved an invita- tion extended to the Society of Natives | by James F. Duhamel to meet at the Old Union Engine House May 19, John Boyle was unanimously elected vice president of the association to suc- ceed the late S. Willard Saxton. Mr. Boyle was preised by several members as “the nestor of Washington journal- ism,” and a valuable member 'of the assoclation. Joseph I. Keefer presented recollec- tions of early days in Washingtan, par- ticularly “Peter Bacon’s Grocery Store, in 1872." W. H. Hessick was elected & new member of the association.
