Of their comfort and well-being with
those who have not these things
Chest officials today made public
letter from a master sergeant OF Field
Artillery. who has been touched by the
appeal of the Chest and raised his sub
scription. The subscription accom-
panied the letter. II read:
Last night listened to your radio
appeal for the Community Chest. Your
description of the squalor and misery
that we have with us made me ashamed
Of myself. In past years I have grudg-
ingly kicked loose with s. Tor the
Chest, but after listening to your ap-
peal see no reason why cannot come
clean with a dime a day, which means
that have Just filled out my card
for $3.50 and for no other reason
than for your forceful presentation OF
facts last night" The letter was ad-
dressed to Campaign Chairman Noyes.
Chest officials also announced that
Edgar Poore, who has recently been
in hospital for an appendix opera
ton, and who saved his pennies, nickels
and dimes while sick, has given the
dollar they aggregated to the Chest.
Little Edgar now is convalescfng at
NGlRI1DOIIlOOQ 11OuSS, d SIlCSI uiSAAASSA.
Elwood Street, director of the Chest,
also drew attention to the campaign
as it is being conducted at the Wash
ington Navy Yard The following has
been put on the bulletin board at the
yard over the signature Of Rear Ad-
miral H. v. Butler, member Of the
Chest campaign organization and COM
mandant of the yard.
"a nickel a day for each day you
work is only IS cents a week. IS cents
a week is S13 a year. 1000 times $l3
equals $4,000. A nickel day Is one
loaf of bread. A nickel a day!"
Mr.. Street today called upon all OF
the more than 5000 workers for the
Chest to wear their campaign badges

there can be no complaint from the
