 The committee has forwarded to tHe community chest drive com mittee the following communica- ton;
 Gentlemen.
 Tn the community chest drive, which has ha.n conducted success fully in New Britain for a number Of years, never have the Polish orphanage located on North Bur rift street and the day nursery To- catcd at 4S Orange street. been listed among all other institutions for whose maintcnance the resi- dents Of Now Britain contributed during the campaign of said drive.
 You are probably aware of the fact that many homeless children find shelter at the Polish orphan age, regarjloss of nationality or creed, and that many children Of lahorers. working hard for a living, are being taken care of at the day nursery. In view or these circum- stances we wish 10 ask you that both these institutions he included among the others listed in the community chest drive.
 I've beg you will give this mat. ter your kind attention and inform Us Of vour decision.
 "Thankiag you, We are,
 Respectfully yours,
