RALLY LADNGHES {MCACAPAGH Year’s Goal Is 600 New Members—Purposes of Organization Told. The Washington Young Men's Christian ~ Association * last night . launched its annual membership campaign with a rally meeting in Bholl's Cafe, 1219 G street. This Jear’s goal is 600 new members. Carson P. Frailey, chairman of the memtership campaign, presided. He urged’ the' campaign workers to ap- proach a prospective member with the ided of having a “commodity to offér” in the form of a service toward char- acter and body building. * Leonard W. De Gast, general sec- retary of the local Y. M. C. A, urged the group to think of the ¥. M. C. A. as an organization “to provide an atmosphere of freedom and through friendly guidance help persons meet their needs in life.” Another of its qims, he pointed out, is to instill in persons a social responsibility which will enable them in later life to take their places as citizens of communi- ties. Other speakers were J. O. Martin, member of the Y. M. C. A. Promotion Committee; Thomas J. Frailey, law- yer and teacher at Southeastern University; Ralph Foster, physical director at the Y. M. C. A, and Ran- dolph E. Myers, director of the pro- motion department. Drive Ends October 21. ‘The campaign is designed to enroll many young men who recently have arrived in Washington, and others, so they may learn the advantages of the Y. M. C. A. membership. The cam- paign will end October 21 with a meeting in the Y. M. C. A, 1736 G street. The first meeting for reports on the progress of the campaign will be heild at the Y. M. C. A. next Tuesday. ‘Tomorrow the Y. M. C. A. in many countries will commemorate the 115th anniversary of the birth of its founder, 8ir George Williams. Ninety-two years ago he founded the first Y. M. C. A. in London. ' Message From Roosevelt. * President Roosevelt in a recent message to C. R. Mease of the New- ark, N. J. Y. M. C. A, chairman of the Founder’'s Day Committee, praised the Y. M. C. A. for its emphasis of Christianity and declared: “During this recent depression it has done valiant service in providing programs of guidance, education and recreation for the millions of unem- ployed young men who have stood in great need of such programs. “I am glad to jein with many friends of the Y. M. C. A. in paying tribute to Sir George Williams, the founder of this great organization.” The founder's day celebration will be featured locally tomorrow after- rioon by radio speeches over Station WRC by J. Edgar Hoover, director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and Harper Sibley, president of the United States Chamber of Commerce. The addresses will be delivered be- tween 4:30 and 5 p.m., with “Leader- ship Todsy and TomorTow” as the general topic. Other prominent men will speak in other eities.
