COMMUNITY DRIVE HAS FORMAL START Speaker Says Result Will Indicate City’s Degres o Civilization “This is a drive to show how civiliz- ed New Britain is," said Rev. Henry W. Maier, at the first luncheon of the workers and committees of the United Community Corporation drive at the Elks club today. All the team cap- tains and committee members wese present and received instructions in conducting the drive. Opened Prayer Following a prayer by Rev. J. Leo Sullivan, E. W. Pelton, chairman of the corporation, opes#ed the program by explaining the financlal situation of the corporation. He said the money has not been coming is as rapidly as it might have been during the past year. The committee went out for $38,000 and received $32,000, consid- erable of which still remains to be collected. The deficit due upon $32,- 000 has been added to this year's budget, which makes it necessary to ask for $40,000. He introduced Leon A. Sprague as director of the drive. Sprague as Syncronizer Mr. Sprague hegan by saying that his work was not to act as generator of inspiration, as that was not need- ed, but to be a syncronizer and keep the workers in step. He cited three good reasons why the United Com- munity drive should go across big and why everyone in the city should back the drive: 5 Reasons For Drive. Because it is of community interest and affects each one in the commun- ity, because it is a personal appeal to the humanitarian side of every in- dividual, and because it is an econ- omical drive, inasmuch as each or- ganization, if compelled to conduct an independent drive, would find it ne- cessary to ask for a great deal more because of the additional expense. Bible Class Reports $1308. He reported that Everyman's Bible class yesterday had subscribed $1,- 337.50, with two-thirds of the mem- bers still to be heard from. Walter O. Cook, scout r-x('(‘ll(i)(’. at this time, introduced Irving Parker, of Troop 4, Center church, who an- nounced that his troop had raised $5 to help start the drive. Mr. Pelton quoted figures showing that the city of Cleveland had gone over the top in a similar drive for al- most $8,000,000, Mark of Civilization. Contributing and soliciting for this drive is more than a duty, it is a privilege, according to Rev. Henry W. Maier, Rev. Mr. Maier said the drive is comprehensive because it is a community problem, it i§ co-opera- tive because of the manner in which the problem was solved, and it is ef- fective because of the efficient man- ner in which the work is done. The Big Difference The difference hetween the un- civilized and the civilized he said is shown in the fact that the uncivilized do nothing for the weak, unfortunate, ignorant, illiterate, backward and criminal people, while the civilized people show their civilization by the manner in which they care for these same people. “Civilizagion", he said, “is not going to let the crippled, diseased or un- fortunate ones lack anything that will help them. This is a drive to show how civilized New RBritain is."" He said he would like to see the names of contributors published. He con- cluded by advising the workers {o be “too lazy to stop working until you can walk the streets and say, ‘New Britain s civilized, it cares for its un- fortunates.” Welfare Work Vs. Eskimo Pie. Phelps Brown, of Springfield, is the man who put across a drive for $300,. 000 in that city. He sald the re. quired amount needed in New Britain would be greatly oversubscribed if the people could he persuaded to show one small part of the enthusiasm and interest shown in the purchase of Lskimo pies. He said figures in Springfield during the Kskimo pie tad showed that (10 times as much was spent for the ice cream novelties as was subscribed for the drive. “The progress of community welfare work is the progress of the Kingdom of God on earth" said Mr. Brown. Cheap Investment. “The greeter investment in welfare work is in_ preventive work,” he said. “You can supporf the Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, girls' club, hoys' clubs and other organizations this way a lot cheaper than you can support them in taxes for jails, hospitals, poor houses, ete.” He suggested the competitive sys. tem among teams to stimulate inter- est. Window Exhibits. The cight different organizations represented in the drive have window | displays in some of the leading busi- ness places today. These displays will be continued all week. The displays are so arranged as to give an exhaus- tive idea of the work done.
