COMMUNITY CHEST
 DRIVE APPROACHES
Directors Ask Everyone to h. crease Contributions This Year

Postmaster H. +. Erwin campaign director of the United Community corporation in letters sent out to the 1.4O0 last years subscribers. has ask cd all Of them to "step up little" end increase their usual contribu- ton, pointing out the need for addi- tional help.
 The letter contained copies Of the Boys Club News, which is printed by boys at the club. and of which 5000 Community chest copies were printed. The paper tells of the ideals and objects of the 10 organizations.
 The directors of the United Com- munity corporation last evening dis cussed a movement to form a Gold cn Rule club among the school chill dren under 15 years of age. The project was killed. when factory chairmen expressed the fear that it would interfere with contributions. The original plan. which was to have been worked through the school savings organization and which had the endorsement of the school officials, was 10 have the children sell memberships at 10 cents each, the membership paying for a button which the child would wear. Prizes totalling slo0 would have been offered.
 The action of the directors in sauashing the project after they had previously endorsed it was taken upon the recommendation of the chairmcn who will head soliciting teams in the factories during the drive. which starts week from Monday. The factory men feared that the 10 cents per child for mem herships would have a tendency to curtaii the usual contribution, be- cause of the increased need. the officials accepted the factory mems recommendation
