The Communicates Plan.

A brief news item in THURSDAYS
Star, dealing with a meeting held under
the auspices Of subcommittee Of the
Washington Council of Social Agencies,
indicates excellent progress toward a
MISUNDERSTANDING goal The subject
before the meeting was that of the CO.
operative financing Of washington's
multtfarious welfare agencies on the So
called community chest" plan.
The community as whole viii re-
foice to know that the matter q the
joint financing Of local welfare o.
ganizations is being carefully canvassed
by group excellently equipped for the
task. 1t will rejoice the more to learn
that the Investigations which are being
conducted seem. so far. strongly to in
dicate the entire feasibility of such a
plan for Washington.
1t becomes increasingly apparent to
both the welfare agencies and to the
public upon which they are dependent
for support that some drastic change
must be made in the present system.
There Is no question but that this sys-
TEN Is wasteful Of time and energy and
money. There is no question that the
community as whole is not supporting
the legitimate welfare activities essen
tiai in a modern city, and that this
burden is being carried by an increas-
ingly reluctant minority. There is no
question but that the interminable sue
cession Of entirely meritorious and. un-
der the present system. entirely inevita-
bic drives, campaigns and appeals is
firing the patience and stultifying the
generosity of all concerned.
The community-chest plan is the OBJ
vious antidote for this condition of af-
fairs. No longer experimental-it is
an established success in about three
hundred communities throughout the
Eation-it involves a no more intricate
program than the combining together
Of the public. which works through a
representative committee, and the local
welfare agencies in united effort to
raise such funds as are needed for those
works OF charity and welfare essential
TO modern urban existence.
1t is frequently said that this plan-a
proven success In every section of the
country-cannot be made operative in
Washington owing to the peculiar char
acter Of the National Capital The ar
guments behind this bald statement Of
opinion are left to the imagination.
The local community is. though with
difficulty, meeting its welfare obliga-
tions. That this should be more pos
sible under an antiquated, inefficient,
extravagant and annoying system than
under one which guarantees modernity,
efficiency. economy and satisfaction Is
not credible.
All that is necessary TO insure the
success OF the community plan in
Washington is the whole hearted sup
port OF men and women in whom the
community as whole has genuine con-
fidence, and the enthusiasm OF the local
agencies. Present indications are that
both Of these factors are available and
that, for at least a sizable group Of the
more important agencies. the chest plan
viii be adopted next year. The Star

among the first TO lend its unqualified
support TO this movement

Nothing equals the automobile as
a source of human happiness" says
M. j. Pilkington, of the Pilkington
Motor company, "and that is probably
why it has achieved more wide
spread distribution among people of
all classes than any other mechanical
device serving human convenience.
''The man who goes without this
great plus-value in living today does
so deliberately, for anybody can af-
ford car. That the car justiifes its
existence on the earth is proved by
the fact that hardly anyone ever
owned one without having one there
after"

for nothing" The Rainbow service
station is beauty. 1t has plenty of
space and just enough buildings to
properly take care of the require
ments of such station, coupled with
one of the largest direction sign
boards in the state.
The secretary of labor, James j.
Davis, has made public letter re-
garding the stabilization of industry,
in which he points out that the most
successful way of meeting business
depression is to increase sales pres
sure, including advertising. Reducing
pay rolls, he states, only hastens the
depression by decreasing purchasing
power. This is by no means new
discovery but it looks like an awaken
ing to the fact when a member of
the presidents cabinet urges advertis-
ing as prevention of unemployment.
Gone reason | am sold on advertis-
ing in The Sun is that it's circulation
covers all worthwhile homes in my

vertiser in explaining his stand on
regular use of newspaper space.
'.Space in The Sun viewed from all
angles is the cheapest form of adver-
tising. People are accustomed to
reading newspapers. 1t is not diff
cult to get their attention as in other
forms of advertising. Again, it is
timely. The advertiser is able to ap-

George Black tells tall deer story
and taller turkey tale. While COM
ing up Schnebly hill Friday two hand
some big does stood beside the road
as he drove by, so close and so still
that he could have hit them with
rocks.
George says that while driving
through Foxboro pasture seven tur-
keys drifted across the road in front
of his car so close that he had to slow
up to keep from running over them.
He inquired of folks around there and
found cut that there were no tame
turkeys in many miles, and now he is
sorry that he did not run over cou-
pie for dinner.
