Magazine Shows Profit. The D. A. R. Magazine operated last year at a substantial profit, ac- covding to the reports of Mrs. Jean J. Labat, chairman of the Magazine Committee, submitted today to the congress. “I think you will agree with me that I have every reason to be well pleased with the financial results of the last three years,” said Mrs. Labat. “Due to the splendid co-operation of every one connected with the maga- zine we have gained in 1933, $5,759.48; in 1934, $1,093.22, and in 1935, $10,- 1786.56, making in all, $17,639.26. Mrs. Labat reiterated her recom- mendation to place the magazine in the hands of every member. “The matter of financing the project has seemed to be the chief obstacle. With the payment of the debt on Constitution Hall, more funds will be available for the usé€ of the Where could some of that money be better invested than in the development of our mag- azine, “A consolidation of all D. A. R. periodicals in a publication with de- partments covering every activity of our society and investment in equip- ment to distribute this publication would make for economy in produc- tion.” Mrs. Labat praised Miss Natalie Sumner Lincoln, editor of the maga- zine, for her work. Miss Lincoln, in her report, declared the magazine had been ‘“vastly improved,” and hoped that soon every department of the | D. A. R. would utilize its pages. The financial reports, she said, demon- strated that at last the D. A, R.| magazine “is a valuable asset to the | society’s treasury.” Damage Far Exceeds Loot.
