Leeds and Lippincott Company CAPITAL IS AMON 90 CHEST LEADER Average of Group Exceeds Last Year’s Total by 5 Per Cent. Washington was among 90 cities that raised more money for the Com munity Chest this year than last, Allen T. Burns, executive vice presi: dent of Community Chests and Coun cils, Inc,, announced today. ‘The amounts raised in these cities ‘| averaged 5 per cent above those of 1934, it was pointed out. The report covered 133 cities submitting early reutrns. D. C. Gain Is 6 Per Cent. this year in contrast with $1,629,516 raised last year, is slightly above the average with a gain of approximately 6 per cent; Detroit, Mich., raised $2,021,000 in contrast with $1,712,730 last year; Baltimore raised $1,089,000 as against $994,000 last year;"Minneap- olis, Minn., pledged $1,484,000 this year as against $1,483,865 last year. These are the four cities in the more than a million dollar class reporting to date. “Community Chests this year,” Mr. Burns said in Washington yesterday, “set their goals 12 per cent higher than the amount received last year. ‘Throughout the depression welfare agencies have been answering in- creased calls for service and operating &% | on reduced budgets.

C. ;. tions existing in certain parts of the country and evidenced in this year's campaign returns, there are still, and will be for some years to come, in- creased calls on communmity-welfare services. Chest leaders faced these facts and courageously set out to aise amounts in excess of those col- ected last Fall. 1931 Set High Mark. “The Fall of 1931 set the high- record mark for Community Chest subscriptions in the United States. At this time the greatest number of people gave to community chests in the cities reporting, and the largest amount of money was raised. This was the period before the Govern- ment assumed the relief load and communities were loyally holding the fort until public relief could be ex- panded to meet the needs of a vast new army of unemployed. In th€ years 1932 and 1933 subscriptions fell markedly, but held their own in 1934 —maintaining the level reached in the previous year.” Herbert L. Willett, jr., director of the Chest, called attention to the fact that while Washington has increased ifs contributions over those eof last year, the Chest is still approximately $150,000 short of its goal. “And tnis goal,” Willett continued, “was based on the minimum requirements of the EGS Chest agencies to do an adequate job. We know that there are num- bers of people in the city who have never been reached during this year’s campaign and we hope that as many of them as possible will contribute direct - so that the clients of our ‘agencies shall suffer as little hard- ships as possible during the Winter.” GUARDS TO ATTEND EXPOSITION TONIGHT Special..
