DIR. David A. Robertson was TO nave
delivered a short talk at yesterday 5
meeting, but was out OF the CITY anu
sent the following telegram "Appre-
ciate invitation and regret absence. IN
snow-filled Washington, with its oeautl-
full sights, the finest thing saw was an
aged colored laborer shovellng snow,
with broken shoes and tattered over
coat. but like a plumed knight, wearing
on the front of his shapeless nat the
Community Chest button"
Marine Band Plays.
The invocation was delivered by Rev.
Henry w. Snyder, pastor of st. PAU
Lutheran Church. Music by the United
States Marine Band Orchestra played
for the campaign singing. On aIter-
mating days the music is furnished ny
the Army Band. The services OF ootn
bands are being volunteered as a part
of their contribution to popping up
the spirits of the 4,500 workers.
Director Elwood Street took the OPP
portunity at yesterdays meeting TO
"naiI'' several false rumorS circulating
about the Chest and its organization.
One of these was to the effect that
John Poole had been given 500 for the
use of his name as campaign chan-
man. The report caused considerable
merriment, as did another equally as lar
Street is receiving $4,000 year salary
from the Chest.
Another assertion heard frequently by
campaign solicitors during the past few
DAYS was that the Chest is furnishing
out of its funds high-powered automo-
biles for its workers Mr.. Street stated
it is true that many of the workers are
to be seen going about in automobiles,
but that the workers in question were
volunteers who are receiving no pay OF
any kind and who are using their own
automobiles in this cause.
Denies Building Fund Report.
Director Street also denied report
that the Chest is contributing 100000
toward the building fund of the Young
Women's Christian Association.
The Community Chest is contributing
nothing toward the building fund, Mr..
Street announced, and has nothing to
do with it.
Any question coming up about the
campaign or the rs agencies affiliated
with the Chest will be answered by the
special Information Bureau maintained
by the Chest at the Mayhower Hotel.
It is maintained for that purpose, not
only to help out team workers, but also
to answer any doubts arising in the
minds of the public
Gifts of 500 or more reported yes
terday are as follows: $1,000, Mrs. d.
