GIVES HELP WITHOUT
ASKING QUESTIONS

Atlanta, Ga, April S.--That the
Salvation Army's stronghold upon the
public is due In large part to the fact
that 1t asks no questions but gives
help wherever and whenever 1t Is
needed, is the opinion Of Frank B.
McClain. former lieutenant governor
Of Pennsylvania and chairman Of hte
Pennsylvania public welfare commits
sion.
Governor McClain was chairman 0:
the Pennsylvania committee for the
Salvation Army, 1919, Home Service
Fund and was offered the same post
ton this year, but because Of the
press of duties was unable to take
active management Of the campaign,
but has accepted the honorary chair
manship.
In his letter accepting the honorary
craftsmanship Governor McClain says;
Last year our campaign was made
principally on the record Of the Sal
vation Army overseas. This year the
field OF local usefulness, which the
Salvation Army occupies, field that
has on every occasion warranted the
praise that has crowned the efforts
OF the Salvation Army, will make the
most heartfelt appeal.
Reaching, as It does, class Of
people that would not accept help
from organized charity because Of the
publicity that attaches to the offer OF
help. the Salvation Army is doing q
work that occupies a field covered
only by this organization
1.-THE Salvation Army, in my obser-
vation, does not ask questions. They
don't want to know the reason why
when they find somebody in need Of
help They give the help. Because
people are in distress, due to his or
her own fault, doesn't lessen their
sympathy or minimize their effort to
lift that person up and to try to make
him or her a useful member Of the
community. They don't have to tell
the story of their past life. The Sal
vation Army only sees that he or she
needs friend, and the Salvation
Army is their friend
