GOOD. PROGRESS
MADE in DRIVE
FORV.OF A.FUND
More Workers are Needed in
Order to Properly Cover
the City, Board Of Di-
rectors State

Excellent progress is being made IN
the drive for funds for the Volunteers
of America. according 10 reports receiv-
ed by George Grupc, who is in charge
of the work. Scarcity of workers is the
greatest drawback. il is stated. and ef
forts are being made to secure more
committee workers TO prosecute the
drive in all sections of the city.
Thus far the committee workers have
received very few rcfusals. Practically
all who have been approached express
themselves as willing to donate for the
purpose Of maintaining the work of the
Volunteers Of America in this city. and
many of them are signing pledge cards
which will assure the organization q
monthly income upon which II can base
its operation. These pledges are of spe-
cial value to the Volunteers as ~ gives
them a tangible foundation for their
work, and not limiting their operations
to the uncertainty of collections with
which to finance il. Many are signing
cards piedging themselves To pay the
organization nj least $l.O0 per month.
and the board Of directors hope to- be
able to secure enough of these pledges
to carry on its work without resorting
to the soliciting system in vogue here
tofore.
Donations ranging from $50 down 10 D
cents are being received by the commit
tee workers, and they are almost unaAi-
nous in reporting that sentiment in the
city is very much in favor OF properly
financing the Volunteers thereby max
ing il possible for them 10 carry out
their work on a more extensive scale.
II believe every person in Browns
Vile is char,tably inclined, oae Of the
workers stated last night. Scores OF
people whom | called upon have donat-
ed to the full extent Of their ability.
and they realize that every cent of the
money is 10 be expended right here at
home in relieving the distress which is
so apparent. had no idea that the Vol
unteers of America had gained the con
fidepce Of the people of Brownsville 10
the extent il has. but that was because
! had never before been in close touch
with its work. and did not know how cx-
tensive il was"

STATE COAL SUPPLY
APPROACHES NORMAL
Missouri Commission Withdraws
Recommendation For Maxi
mum Prices.

jefferson City, Mo-, Sept 1.-THE
Missouri coal commission, at "a ses-
sion held here today, decided to with
draw it's recommendation as to maxi
mum prices for Missouri coal. Ac-
cording to statement issued after
the meeting, this action would indicate
that the commission recognizes re-
ports that no artificial stimulus is
now necessary for production, which
is approaching normal.
ut is now thought best to permit
prices to be regulated by supply and
demand" the statement decides. "In
the event, however, that conditions
again become acute, maximum prices
may again be recommended" The
commission explained that maximum
prices were established to obtain pro-
duction limited by the coal strike
'The movement of coal into the
larger Missouri terminals indicates
that industries have had a fair OPP
portunity," the commission stated,
''to btain a working supply of COAL"
The commission counsels house
holders to provide for winter require
ments. The coal commission and the
county committees will be held intact,
according to the statement, so that
they may function instantly should
the necessity arise.
