BIC COMMITTEE WORKING FOR
 WILSON FUND

| Woodrow Wilson Foundation week i opened yesterday throughout the state and nation. Prof. Ray B. West erfeld, state executive chairman an- nounced today that local committees in practically every town and city in Connecticut were making appeal for public subscription.
 The state office in New Haven has 1 been a chaotic and busy place during | the last week. according to Miss Julia | Hinaman, executive secretary, since | supplies of literature and subscription books are being rushed to some one 1 hundred town chairmen who are | eager to get into action.
 l Tt is surprising and gratifying '' l asld Prof. Henry W. Farnam. who l has been one of the most generous workers for and contrib ors to the Foundation, that g movement which 1 mas Tor it's purpose the creation of method for recognizing and encourage lng valuable pUolic service, such as Woodrow Wilson rendered to his country, can become so popular. Men and women of all walks of life re- sardless of creeds or politics are eager tor a part in this tribute to great American.''
 The non-partisan and non-politicaI character of the Foundation Move ment emphasized by Prof Wester- field who points out that while Demo- crats are everywhere giving their
 earnest support, many of the leaders
 Of the state and local rganizations are Republicans or Independents. MT.
