ABANDON WAR CHEST
WHEN ALL PAYMENTS
FOR 1918 ARE MADE
OFFICERS OF FUND ANNOUNCE
DlSCONTlNUANCE OF COlLEC.
TlONS AS SOON AS ALL SUB.
SCRlPTlONS HAVE BEEN PAID.

Tentative plans for the virtua
abandonment of Ottawas War Chest
were announced today by officers Of
the fund. This was decided upon al
a meeting of the directors held la
night. Under the arrangements 1915
collections will be made until all sub
scripti0ns are paid in full bur no 1915
collections will be made unless un
fOresee emergencies arise
A formal statement given out today
by President Clarence Griggs of tht
Chamber of Commerce says:
At a meeting OF the directors of
the War Chest last night it was de
cided to ask all subscribers to pay
up in full to Dec. 81. 1918, which
includes December pledges. Sub
scribers will not be asked TO make
January payments nor, indeed, any
OF the payments due in 1919 unless
unforeseen demands arise. This
means that If You have paid up to
Dec 81. 1918, no further payments
will, in all probability, be asked for,
but if YOU are delinquent or behind
in your payments you are expected
to pay up to Dec 81, 1918
The directors hope the delin-
Quents will appreciate the fact that
the board has ceased calling lor
payments at the earliest possible
moment and that, in fairness to
those who have faithfully kept up
their payments, the delinquents
should pay up their arrears.
