Alfred r. Smith last year, and in his
new statement, he said he thought he
had made his stand clear in his con-
versation with Charles Michaelson, pub
licity director of the national committee,
who had requested the tariff statement
and who, he added, also had himself ex-
pressed strong opposition to the bill.
Only Purpose Is to Fight Bill.
He had no other purpose, he added
than to promote the fight against a
bill which he regarded as discrimina-
tory, unfair and dangerous"
The Senator added that his own views
on the tariff were not the views known
to be entertained by John j. Raskob,
chairman of the national committee,
nor were they the views expressed by
Mr.. Smith in his campaign speeches.
He was gratified. therefore, he said,
to find the Washington Democratic
headquarters supporting his attitude on
the tariff.
AS for the newspaper speculations re-
garding the significance of his tariff
statement under the circumstances,
Senator Simmons said there had not
been and would not be ANY abatement"
in his contention and insistence that
the control of the party national or
ganization by RaSkob and Tammany
Hall should cease or be overthrown."
He believes now, as heretofore, he
added. that "the perpetuation of that
control not only will be an obstacle in
the way of present party harmony, but a
menace to the future prospects of the
party"

CHEST PAYMENTS
TOTAL 69PER CENT

Pledged Is Paid In-Agen-
cies' Demands Light.

Contributions to the Community
Chest up to July amounted to 81 1885,
75424, or about sos per cent of the
total amount OF ST ,488, 689.81 pledged in
the 1929 campaign, according to re-
ports of the auditing department of the
chest.
Coincident with the report of COL
lections, the auditing department stated
that the organizations affiliated with
the chest have called for only As per
cent of their budgets at the first half
of the year.
This is due, Elwood Street. director
of the chest, explains, because some of
the organizations have been operating
on money on hand at the beginning of
the campaign. The Washington HUI
name Society. for instance, he points
out, has received no money because Of
cash on hand and other income. The
Social Hygiene Society has asked for
only per cent of its budget because
of cash on hand and because it did not
employ an executive secretary until the
year was well advanced.
Acting on the request of the budget
committee of the chest, the Council Of
Social Agencies has obtained the serv-
ices of Miss Bertha Howell, chairman
of the St. Louis Council of Recreation
Committees, to make a thorough sur
Vey OF outdoor recrcatl0nal ana summer
outing facilities among the various or
carnations in the District. Miss Howell
will arrive next week, and her survey
will include all organizations in the
Council of Social Agencies and in the
Community Chest.
The purpose of the survey, it is ex-
planned, is to present to the budget
committee Of the chest comprehensive
report on such recreational facilities
for guidance in the preparation of next
years budgets. The ultimate plan is to
develop a co-ordinated recreational
service for individuals and family
groups. with recommendations as to
possible improvements in the quality
and quantity of service now rendered
and possible changes in present facil-
tiles. as we'll as additions if necessary.
Miss Howell has made similar sur
veys in other cities.

The lack Of respect for the legislative
