WAR CAMP COMMUNITY
 RECREATION FUND
Statewide Organization Meeting Plans
 Campaigns For Connecticut.

Tn preparation for a national came
 paign to raise a fund Of S3, 100000 for the War Camp Community Recreation
 Fund, statewide organization meet ing was held Saturday in the Cham
 Der of Commerce hall, New Haven Ac-
 tive campaigns have, already been ar
 ranged for Hartford, New Haven and,
 New London and plans were consider-3
 ed at this meeting for extending the
 campaign to the other cities and com-I
 munities of the state.
 The campaign, which will be in fulI
 swing from November to 10, has
 the hearty endorsement of Presidene
 Wilson, Secretary of War Baker,
 Secretary of the Navy Daniels, thd
 Connecticut State Council of Defensea
 the Chamber of Commerce of the Unit
 cd States, the International AssociaS tion of Rotary clubs and other organ < izations. The campaign is no way competitive with those of the Young Mems Chris tian Association or the Knights of Co., lumbus, and the objects for which the money is needed are different since the two latter organizations are l within military camps while the Ma tional War Camp Recreation Com | mission is interested almost wholly in | activities outside the camps and in l the communities surrounding them or nearby.
 The Recreation Commission is an l organization aiming to establish hap | py and healthy contact between all American army and navy camps and the neighboring communities, to make men of the new National Army at home in the towns apd cities near their camps, to provide normal social en- soldiers and sailors and to open homes, halls. churches, clubs, social organize tions, theaters and motion picture houses to men in uniform.
