Oakland, Gulf
BY Delilah l.. Deasley

Ii was most encouraging ex-
emplification of community partici-
patton that was exhibited BY group
of over 40 men and women who rep
resented the Negro lodges and wo-
mems clubs in the club-cooperation
meeting of the Community Chest on
Tuesday afternoon in the chestcam-
paign headquarters. 571 14th street.
Sincere and grateful appreciation is
extended to these persons by the
writer because the meeting was to
crystalize the action of all Oakland
clubs in the 1881 chest appeal which
opens next month. This group rep
resenting Negro organizations and
women's clubs was part of a gath
ering of leaders of over 300 Lastbay
organizations who have an aggregate
membership of about 100000. The
Significance of this Negro group in
attendance in such large numbers
definitely determined that while
the Community Chest army of
Mercy" does not recognize race,
creed or religion in its dispensing
of relief, it will need just such a
spirit of cooperation from every eli
tizen to meet the demands of the
present crisis. There are 5000 vol
unteer workers who will begin the
drive as an army of mercy from
February 25 to March 10, and of
that number there will be large
ers.

Oregon Senator Introduces Resolution Afording
 Wide Scope

 INQUIRY ENLARGED
Investigators to f ath o m Causes of Fluctuation,
 Give Remedies

WASHINGTON, D. C.. Ian. 29.- A proposal for a general investiga- ton of the fluctuations in commo- dity and security prices is pend- ing in the Senate which previously ordered only probe of bread, sugar and meat costs.
 A broad study of prices will be conducted by a special committee to be appointed by Vice-President Charles Curtis, President of the Senate. The committee will de termine causes and remedies. This is proposed in a resolution intro duced by Senator Frederick Steiwer of Oregon. U
 Investigation of meat prices has been added to the bread and sugar inquiry by Senator Capper's com mittee and he has summoned the committeeman to meet this after noon preparatory to calling fol hearings.
 Senator Steiwer's resolution would start consideration of "all factors influencing price relationships anc practices which directly or indirect ly depress prices paid producers or enhance prices paid by consum- CTS of food products, including all practices which influence relation ship by affecting credits, values o1 securities and commodities"
