DEMAND CREDENTIALS WHEN
ASKED FOR CONTRIBUTIONS

The need for continued super
vision of the solicitation of funds by
the state councils Of defense has not
in any way been terminated by the
signing of the armistiee. Nearly all
voluntary societies which solicited
funds for purposes arising out of
the war will continue to solicit during
the period Of rehabilitation and re-
construction. In addition, new soci-
cites will arise both for the recon
struction of the devastated areas of
Europe and for relief, welfare and
reconstruction" purposes at home.
In the face Of this situation, it is
important that each state council of
defense continue to protect the citi-
zens of its state from fraud, from
wastage Of their funds and from con-
slant petty and irritating soiieiso-
ton 1t is equally important that
the public be protected from the eff
/ fects Of confused, inarticulated effort
and ill-considered action-a protec-
tion of persons as much as dollars.
Furthermore, in a strikingly high
degree, the resources which are
available for relief and the total
Of voluntary contributions are both
limited Each dollar that is given,
each resource that is consumed for
unnecessary or fraudulent ends, is
directly deducted from the funds and
resources available for necessary
work, Moreover, the generosity Of
persons who have found out that their
contributions for relief or welfare
work have been wasted or fraudulent
" appropriated is almost inyn ally
blighted, and not only their immedi-
ate, but all thNr potential future
contributions are withdrawn from the
support of necessary work
AT the present time the conserva-
ton Of the funds Of available volun-
tary contributions is especially inn
portant. The esrabli3hel loca. cliari-
table and social organizations have
had their resources depleted and their
organizations undermined through the
strain of war Suddenly, and almost
without warning, the rehabilitation
of the army and Of industry, the
waves of unemployment that are sure
to follow and the closing in Of a
winter Of unparalleled high prices,
have precipitated upon them a tre-
mendous need for their services
which their greatest strength will be
taxed to meet.
TO conserve our local and oversee
relief and welfare funds and resourc-
es, as well al To protect our citizens,
an adequate statewide supervision Of
the solicitation Of funds is urgently
needed. We therefore request chat
during the period Of rehabilitation
and readjustment each state council
continue to supervise the solicitation
Of funds for purposes arising out OF
the war.
No solicitation of funds for alleged
war purposes should be permitted ex-
cept that of allied war work, Red
Cross and Belgian relief If there
should be any collection attempted
upon the part Of anyone, demand Of
such person a permit from the state
council Of defense; and if it cannot
Be shown, take steps to stop the coll
lection
Tennesseans must not be imposed
upon under the guise Of war chart
ties. All proper purposes will be
granted permits by the state council.
Very truly yours,
RUTLEDGE SMITH,
Chairman and Field Secretary.
