General Welfare
CAMPAIGN Grows
Reports of Officers Show
$1279 a Year Pledged
For Three Years
EXPECT TO GET $4,000
BY PERSONAL CALLS

The organizing committee of the
General Service Board, a general So
cial welfare movement for the State
Of Delaware, held a meeting yester
day afternoon at its temporary offices
in the DUPONT Building, room PTS
to receive reports from the chairman
and secretary on the results SO far
accomplished.
The cecretary's report outlined the
preliminary work so far done by cor
respondenee and oircularizing as
we'll as the cooperation received
from various newspapers in this
community by articles and editorials
setting forth the nature Of the work.
The secretary's report also showed
to date membership subscriptions of
1877 pledging themselves to a total
annual subscription of S1,279 for lie
three-year period
The reports further indicated that
by properly supplementing the pre-
liminary work SO far done by per.
sonal ouch and explanation and with
the additional verbal pledges already
made by many, the committee could
readily count on securing its full
minimum requirement Of $4,000 Der
annum by further efforts during the
next few months.
The report from various members OF
the committee indicated that there was
still some doubt in the minds of mum.
Der of those who have been addressed
as TO the general nature and lines Of
work to be pursued by the proposed
general service board and society. 1t
was decided. however, that ample litera.
ture and news items had been distri-
buted, and the further work of the com
mittee would be arranged for on the
lines Of personal interviews to explain
any questions still in the minds Of those
who have not yet reached a decision
While the committee feels very much
gratiiied that number OF membership
subscriptions have been accompanied bv
checks for initial payments, this is not
the intent at this time and these re.
mittances have been returned. The sole
object OF the committee at this time is
to determine the permanent financial
support that can be secured over the
three year period, the initial payment
upon which win not be called for until
carly tall Of this year

Railroads Ask Advance In Rates.
An advance of one-half cent mile
in interstate passenger rates will be
asked by the western railroads in q
petition to be presented to the inter
state commerce commission, according
to Clifford Thorne. chairman of the
Iowa state railroad commission. He
asserts that general solicitor Of one
OF the leading western roads advised
him that the roads have abandoned
their idea of asking for general ad-
| vance in freight rates and that they
will concentrate on an effort to raise
the passenger fares.
When the interstate rates are In
creased from to 21s cents a mile.
Mr.. Thorne says. the roads will seek
similar advances on the state traffic
before the commissions and the state
legislatures. He says that 1t was a
wise move of the roads to drop the
freight advance proposition. He de-
clares there are many inequalities yet
to be Strengthened out. The recent
decision of the commission refusing to
find the cent fare unreasonable be-
tween Missouri. Arkansas and Okla
